Marc Antoine BARROIS

2 weeks ago we went to Lille for the fashion show presenting the new collection of Marc Antoine BARROIS. This is not his first collection, and it is possible to see the maturity in cut, and easy in working with new materials.

Our favorites are the sweaters, but the cape was what left us speechless (we love the idea of having it instead of jacket). Love the back pockets that have original like inverted "V" line. Here you can see some of our favorite pieces, but for more you will have to see designers Official site.

Alessandro Dell'Acqua S/S 2007

Next spring summer for Alessandro Dell'Acqua has a military feel, (in form of gigolo army types). Milan is all about shrunken suits for coming season, and Dell'Acque brought it to an entirely another level with amazing prints of tigers and stripes...

Men's Fashion Comes Out Of The Closet

After years of stifling conservatism, men face a dizzying array of clothing options ranging from cutting-edge sportswear to unisex collections that blur the distinctions between the genders. French designer Jean Paul Gaultier is largely to thank for these advances. He was the first to show men in skirts and continues to promote an androgynous approach to dressing with his Gaultier To The Power of Two collection, inspired by the perfume of the same name. As reported by: CNN

Dolce & Gabbana S/S 2007 - Milan

Very well defined collection, with shape and details made to enhance the beauty of the body. The show was aired live on FTV.

Colors are: white, blue and beige, with details in dark green and bordeaux, alternated with khaki and a hint of purple. You could see crests with the Olimpic emblems, impeccably cut weightless jackets, very narrow ties, ... Dolce & Gabbana did it again. BRAVO.

John Varvatos // Fall 2006

"Imagine a cross between a French peasant and a refugee from the Russian front, and you have some idea where the John Varvatos man is headed for fall." Tim Blanks @ Style.com

Alexander McQeen // Fall 2006 Preview

Just a few photos from this "bloody" Alexander McQueen show presenting Fall 2006 Collection.

Alessandro Dell'Acqua // Fall 2006

Dell'Acqua defined the body with his close-cut shearling and a trim brown leather blouson. But he allowed a little luxury into his pared-down proposition with jeans that were treated to shine, a topcoat trimmed in black satin, and a single-buttoned, shawl-collared tux. And the shoes throughout were a sleek, dandified black patent. But what's enduringly odd about Dell'Acqua is the way in which the women's clothing he shows alongside his men's collection is fleshily sensual, while the clothes he makes for guys are so cool and detached, they're practically arctic. Come to think of it, perhaps that's why he cited the aloof Ms. Smith as his menswear muse. By: Tim Blanks for Style

Paris F/W 06 Report Part 4by James Trevithick Aldous

Dormeuil - Renowned worldwide for their collection of luxury fabrics, Dormeuil didn't disappoint with their Fall 06 Men's collection. Black and white dogtooth check adorned the invitation as well as the models in a collection that was soave and elegant but which still maintained a masculine bite to it.

Bernard Willhelm - Exhibition fashion, but minus the restraints of frames, as Willhelm demonstrated in his break-out style. Creative and bold.
