The FW10 collection for Robert Geller hit on some familiar themes from seasons past. The look of romantic eastern-european dandyism is definitely here but this season seems to be focused on more lux textiles ranging from fur to distressed leather. The leather pieces and accessories were definitely stand-outs however I’m not sure if the fur [...]

I was fortunate enough to be at the Milk studios for the Tim Hamilton presentation at Milk Studios last friday. The line seems to have taken a more street oriented direction which i feel is positive considering menswear designers’ inclination to dress things “up”. The fit of the trousers looked quite on point as well [...]

As one of the standout menswear designers from the New York Fashion Week; Robert Geller comes back with a pretty strong Spring/Summer 2010 Collection. The materials shown seem lighter, more sporty and versatile. The colors are a good fit for the season without being as gimmicky as past seasons. While there’s not any particular pieces [...]

The Spring/Summer 2010 Givenchy Collection for men seems like a regression from the stronger FW09 collection. While the same feel is here, the styling and pieces can often be described as gaudy. Instead of smoothy blending a street element ; designer Riccardo Tisci tries too hard to ensure every piece has the depth and detailing [...]

We took a look previously at the Undercover SS10 collection here. Now a new feature has surfaced on web magazine Honeyee titled “Less But Better”. It gives a shot at some of what happened backstage at the show and also closer hi-res images of the clothing and models.
More pics after the jump, visit the [...]

Seeing the fabrics in motion makes this collection even better. Thanks to scoute for the heads up.

Juun J’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection is a mixed bag. While there are certainly some very dramatic impressive pieces like the jumpsuit trench, shiny techno shorts and oversize anorak there are some definite misses as well. The sandal-sneaks are a good attempt at something new but I can hardly seeing them being very appealing in person. [...]

This collection is something that differs from the traditional Ann D formula. The obvious missing element being the total lack of shirting (one of her specialties), but beyond that this collection’s feel is less romantic and more modern than her recent work. I can’t help but feel the collection is a little bit flat and [...]

The Spring/Summer 2010 Lanvin men’s collection is a standout of Paris men’s week. The color palette and sharp tailoring make it seem almost more like a fall collection than one for spring/summer. Despite the questionable styling choices in some looks (mainly the visors and many of the silky pants/shorts) this collection has really strong [...]

The MiharaYushiro spring/summer collection is a mix of great wearable pieces combined with terrific styling. While the influences here are somewhat obvious and the overall collection lacks a true feeling of cohesion; the pieces themselves look terrific. Japanese designers often struggle with finding a distinct look and sticking to it , but the slight schizophrenia [...]
