Neil Barrett Spring 2011 | Milan Fashion Week

Neil Bar­rett gives his men march­ing orders for the spring sea­son. Embrac­ing a color palette that trans­verses the spec­trum from dark to light, the Neil Bar­rett man is put through the ringer with inter­est­ing mil­i­taris­tic influ­ences. While epaulets are an obvi­ous, soft leather is worked in mag­i­cally to com­pli­ment sheer slouchy tops and a play­ful pre­sen­ta­tion of pre-​​wrinkled fab­rics. Alto­gether, Bar­rett pieces together a cohe­sive nar­ra­tive that ranks his man at the top of the class.
