Changing Agenda–Treading closer to the conservative rulebook, Mugler takes a more streamlined approach to the fall/winter 2012 season. Gravitating towards the suit as the collection’s core base, a better aptitude for wearable garments is executed but a bold spirit still remains. Cast in black, burgundy and midnight blue, the man of Mugler is placed at a crossroads. While several jackets, capes and other fine items show a hand at tailoring and fine fit, others tend to mask substance with style. With silk and worked fabrications making their debut and dissecting designs, Mugler is at once a foot forward with interest, but a mixed signal when arriving at a cohesive union of style, construction and intent.
