Nigel Cobourn at London Fashion Week Men’s

Nigel Cabourn anti-war protest look themed Army camouflage uniforms from the Vietnam War Era  were his statement this Spring.  The designer celebrated 50 years in the business with a collection inspired by photo famed journalist Sean Flynn.   The pieces were about details, function, wearabilty, and utility with bursts of color for the ladies looks. Nigel focused on the military aesthetic this season with shorts, sheer, and blazers.

Made in England is a mantra for the brand ensuring quality materials including denim and herringbone cotton produced by Blackhorse Lane and Mckintosh Ateliers the pieces are meant to last.

London Fashion Week Men’s

London Fashion Week Men’s Black and Paper coverage of London Men’s Week.

The legendary city is celebrating its 5th Men’s week in 2017.   The charm of British menswear is the level of risk designers take.   Unlike rival fashion cities where classic themes are refreshed, London throws everything in the pot from shapes, colors, and textures for the fun of it with enthusiasm.  The definition of fashion is “being different”, standing out from the crowd, a statement.

The Strand in the heart of the capital is the locale for the runway shows, presentations, and trade fare.

Stay tuned for more coverage.

Berlinale-Sixties Iconic

Glashütte Original introduced a new timepiece collection at The 67th Berlinale, Sixities Iconic Square Collection.  For the man looking for a cool statement piece, with a splash of color for distinction, this is the watch for him.

There are five models with stunning colored dials; blue, gold, gray, green, and red.  Reaching back to its roots, 1964, Glashütte Original designed this collection, inspired by history the brand.

Sixties Iconic Square Ocean

My favorite style, the Blue Dial/face, has an Automatic Movement, off center small second stop with the perfected Glashütte three-quarter plate, skeletonized motor, sapphire glass, and alligator strap, all in a stainless casing with blue and black lacquer degrade effect.

After trying on the different models in the Glashütte Original Golden Bear Lounge at the Berlinale,  I liked the Ocean color the most because it is different enough to be noticed but still a classic style.  I can wear it for day and night.

The watches are available worldwide in fine stores and Glashütte Original Boutiques.

Glashutte Original is an official sponsor of the 67th Berlinale.

Mr. Vanotti preferred loose fitting silhouette that elongated the body with stripes and high waist fittings.

Concpet Korea At Pitti Uomo

Pitti Uomo presented Concept Korea, menswear looks from designer Ordinary People and Byungmun Seo.

I liked Ordinary People more because my taste leans more towards classic styling.  Byungmun was more experimental with shapes, cuts, and silhouettes.  Transforming the body into padded geometric shapes.
