Inspired by Opera

I met Rory Hutton in London at Fashion Week Men, a mens accessories designer with a background in illustration. For me, it is always inspiring to meet a person in fashion who is serious about his work, and can have a conversation about the future of his brand, fast forward to a recent email telling me about his latest work.

Mr Hutton’s bowties, pocket squares, and sock designs are for gentlemen who like an accessory styles not heavy on formality, many design print.

A graduate of Limerick School of Art and The National College of Design, Dublin, Rory’s collection can be found in London at Fortnum & Mason.

This year in collaboration with The Royal Opera House London, Rory Hutton designed pieces based on and inspired by the master opera works of Mozart, Verdi, Handel, and Wagner.

Chrono Physical

Arousing or captivating, each watch represents corporal sensibilities.

A  timepiece is an instrument made for measurement. 

With the spirit of craftsmanship, art, and masculinity. 

A curse on a man for being for being tight muscled, physically good looking, and wearing a great watch!

A timepiece is a part of the classic style that never goes out of style.

An appreciation for the physical form. 

The most noticed accessory on a man is a watch.

Model-Florian Boggio

This is the first in a series for Black and Paper. When Brice and I discussed the mood of the project, I knew he wanted something different than the normal luxury timepiece pics of a guy in a suit in a lush setting. This is a Paris based photographer who’s idols include Herb Ritts, David Bowie, and Madonna. The male form was going to be a part of this. What brand would take a chance on being the first? Thankfully, Tag Heuer gave us full support. There was no pressure, only trust. The Public Relations team even offered more pieces. We are both forever grateful.

Agnes B. Homme

From Paris Fashion Week Men designer Agnes B. displays rural French heritage on her sleeve.  The designer is inspired by rural looks; worker overalls and shirts, all down to Earth. I call her style “Subdued French” yet always wearable.
