  • Pitti Uomo Dandy Report

    It is always fun to attend Pitti Uomo.  The Dandys or Peacocks walking around showing off their looks are impressive but at times some looks felt overdone.  We think what makes a great look is if the looks seem effortless not like a math equation. Stylist Gianni and I share share our views from Florence. […]

  • Hi Tops from Dior

    I looked over the Dior Pre-Fall Collection. Kim Jones continues to lean to streetwear for inspiration.  His commercial instincts are solid. Luxury labels must court new buyers to stay relevant.  I am not sure where the line is drawn between courting and desperate attempt.   The new Nike Air Jordan hi-top crosses the border. The […]

  • Coming Soon, Florence

    We are counting down to Florence.  Pitt Uomo for all the menswear tends. 

  • Outerwear ReDux

    Outerwear ReDux

    The setting for the Fay presentation was impressive: A large space in the company’s head office with blue screen. Secondly, I liked the collection of  menswear and womenswear outerwear based on re-interpreted  classic looks.  A change from the brand’s normal DNA. From the Fay Presentation

    A hat is always an elegant accessory.   I attended the Borsalino presentation at Milan Fashion Week.  Each one makes a personal statement.  Check out the pieces.  

  • Cividini

The first is from […]

    IFA Berlin 2019 starts on Wednesday September 19th.  Today,  we cannot live without tech devices.  Twenty Four hour connectivity is a lifestyle. Gadgets require add ons.  Items for carrying around or plugging in.  Today, tech can make style statements with colours, shapes the same as  shoes and bags.  Powerbanks, cables, carrying cases, and more can […]

  • The Last  Days of August

    The Last Days of August

    The last days of August and summer.  It’s  never too late to get the right bathing suit for a last minute trip to the beach.  Maybe in September there will be good weather.  If not, there is always a pool. We cannot guarantee they are as soothing as the ones at the Aqualux Hotel.    […]

  • The Fashion Eco Warriors?

    The world has now become social media politically conscience.  It is hyper connected movement of righteousness mixed with moral superiority.  If iOS shuts down, heaven help the world.   Predicting what Millennials and Social Media want is hard. They post one thing to be a part of a movement but purchase the opposite in stores. […]

  • Late August Look Now!

    Late August Look Now!

    At the Aqualux Hotel during the “What to Wear In August” shoot there was a moment of inspiration. We decided to act. The hotel has an outdoor barbecue night with live entertainment. Guitar player Simone Clementi performed some sets with his singing partner in front of dinner guests.  1.Borsalino Hat & Robinson Les Bains Swimwear […]
