Y-​​3 Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

Trans­lat­ing Trav­els–Lay­ing out car­pets for eclec­tic trav­els, Y-3’s youth geared up for an adven­tur­ous fall/​winter 2012 show­ing. With less atten­tion on the obvi­ous sports appro­pri­ate­ness of the label and more focus on tap­ping into Yohji Yamamoto’s unique design aes­thetic, relaxed sil­hou­ettes opened the door to roman­tic lay­ers. Blended with an urban twist, baggy fits cul­mi­nated in acces­si­ble gar­ments dec­o­rated with engag­ing prints. Built on a range of bil­low­ing trousers, casual shirts played the laid-​​back com­pan­ion piece to jack­ets and coats, con­structed as that per­fect fin­ish­ing piece. From struc­tured blaz­ers accented with printed strips to a jacket, cut from but­tery soft leather or an over­size boxy coat, Y-​​3 approached the sea­son with a cool apti­tude, deliv­er­ing a con­tem­po­rary flair, laced with a styl­ish finesse.

Robert Geller Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

Eng­lish Punk–Find­ing the inspi­ra­tion of his lat­est col­lec­tion while lis­ten­ing to early eight­ies post-​​punk band The Sound, Robert Geller decided to usurp the clas­sic Eng­lish mode of style for a vehi­cle to fur­ther push his sig­na­ture design stan­dards. A war of the loose and fit­ted, the mild man­ners of the gen­tle­man and the rash ten­den­cies of youth meshed together for a delight­ful show­ing. Tack­ling var­i­ous inter­pre­ta­tions of knick­ers, casual sweats and volu­mi­nous trousers were brought forth for a lively show­ing. Armed with prints and the occa­sional splash of bold color, Geller’s col­lec­tion high­lighted a dynamic range of gar­ments as usual. Whether craft­ing a cozy grandpa’s cardi­gan or a belted coat, the lineup served up cov­eted pieces with smart details. Amongst tonal color block­ing, short-​​sleeved cable-​​knits and dip-​​dyed fab­rics, Robert Geller’s fall show­ing ush­ered in a sea­son of sophis­ti­cated but ener­getic pieces.

Billy Reid Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

South­ern Charm–A pol­ished fall out­ing from Billy Reid details the whims of the mod­est gen­tle­man look­ing for all the right pieces with a spe­cial charm. Fur­nished in lush fab­ri­ca­tions with impec­ca­ble details, fall lay­ers pro­vide for the quaint and rugged. Employ­ing a lineup of semi-​​fitted trousers along­side tweed out­er­wear, cash­mere sweaters and sharp shirt­ing, a new wardrobe is fleshed out with com­plete trim­mings. Accented with fur and acces­sorized with the chance car­ryall or leather footwear, Billy Reid’s col­lec­tion prompts the con­tin­u­ance of a sound per­spec­tive that puts the time­less hero first, whether its tai­lored suit­ing or knitwear, ready to be worn in.

Rag & Bone Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

The Rugged Dandy–Approach­ing the fall/​winter 2012 sea­son, Rag & Bone design­ers David Neville and Mar­cus Wain­wright took hold of the dandy and roughed him up with a wild eye for the unkempt out­doors. Infil­trated by woodsy sen­ti­ments, fine tai­lor­ing took on a util­i­tar­ian pur­pose, jux­ta­posed with details of the mod­ern age. Lasered fab­ri­ca­tions and satin lin­ings joined care­fully placed leather inclu­sions for a notion of today’s designs. Mean­while, relaxed trousers as well as heavy coats of wool tied into a Lon­don roman­ti­cism that is indif­fer­ent to time. A sub­tle twist of menswear fun­da­men­tals, the col­lec­tion as a whole fueled a space for clas­sic ideas with a hint of exper­i­men­tal fod­der aimed at the season.

Tommy Hilfiger Fall/​Winter 2012 | New York Fashion Week

March­ing For­ward–The men of Tommy Hil­figer marched to a dif­fer­ent beat for the fall/​winter 2012 sea­son. Trad­ing in the Amer­i­can prep that Hil­figer has become so syn­ony­mous with, the lav­ish col­lec­tion read as a rich set off the run­ways of Europe. Bring­ing together bur­gundy and black, leather and shear­ling, Tommy Hil­figer was sim­ply rav­ish­ing. Armed with an aris­to­cratic flair, deli­cious tex­tiles deliv­ered a sharp arse­nal of arrest­ing pieces. Acces­sorized with leather rid­ing gloves, the show kicked off with tai­lored jack­ets and coats, func­tional and ready to be trans­formed at a moment’s notice, cour­tesy of tear away details. Cham­pi­oning the leather inset and bring­ing the elbow patch to the front for a divinely mod­ern look, the devil was in the details. From pleated trousers and sleeve detail­ing to a fetch­ing palette of muted tones, Tommy Hil­figer cre­ated an army for the mod­ern age, bring­ing the ulti­mate lux­ury to the Amer­i­can stage.
