Man Fashion: Tommy Hilfiger's Spring 2009 Collection @ NYFW

| comments

Another fashion designer from New York Fashion Week, Tommy Hilfiger rolled out his Spring 2009 Collection with some big guns, including stylist George Cortina and DJ Jeremy Healy.


The mood was patrician: navy blazer, preppy pastel slacks, silk tie, or a suit and trenchcoat in the same shade of gray. A pale blue jacket paired with narrow navy pants felt like the sort of thing Alain Delon might have worn.



Though the show notes mentioned "the explosive freedom of early eighties dressing," it actually felt a little sixties, Hollywood-style, like these were the sort of clothes an account exec.

White and black are still the my ultimate choice, navy pants with white designer shoe look gorgeous.

Man Fashion: Michael Bastian's Spring 2009 Men's Collection

| comments

Once a year event, Spring 2009 Fashion Week just started few days ago. Michael Bastian has showed off his latest Spring 2009 Men's Collection. His first show provided an interesting opportunity to see the designer's own distillation of those multiple options.


Actually, it wasn't really a show, more a tight edit of 25 looks based around Bastian's latest American archetype. Focus on sporty short, bathing suits, and of course his signature freewheeling take on eveningwear, shawl-collared pink jacket, blue tux shirt, pale gray pinstriped pants.

While people in the U.S and Europe are looking for winter fashion, our counterpart in Australia and New Zealand will enjoy their sunny day in the coming session, and of course, summer and beach wear are the current fashion trends in this part of the world.

What particular fashion to noted this summar in Australia is "city short", or rather called Bermuda short.

It has been a long time since a man's knees were seen in the office but that may be about to change.

The "city short" is the hottest tip for this year's men's summer fashion.


The new-look city short has already been clocked on the men of London and New York this year.Singer turned fashion designer Justin Timberlake also showed men in city shorts at New York Fashion Week, in his work for fashion house William Rast. Other giant fashion designers such as Ralph Lauren has showed their City Shorts their 2008 Spring Collection

"Anybody over the age of 35 will remember men used to go to work with shorts and long white socks and the accessory to go with that was the pen to stick in the side of the sock," said Peter Holder, of ACP's Men's Lifestyle.

"It looks good but I don't know if it would be accepted by everyone in all offices," she said.

Have you got one for yourself in last summer, or intend to get one now?

With his countless provocative shows and outrageous designs, Alexander McQueen has created his style as the "Bad Boy" of fashion. The designer's potent mix of creativity, controversy and technical mastery has earned him three British Designer of the Year awards as well as a faithful celebrity followers such as David Bowie and Prodigy's Keith Flint.

Spring 2009 Collection

In 1996 he was named the role of chief designer at Givenchy. Feeling creatively stifled by the couture house, whose founder he dismissed as "irrelevant," McQueen left Givenchy in 2000 and has since joined the Gucci group.

| comments

If you are wondering what is this Pop-up Stores all about? Then let me tell you then. More and more Clothing companies are start to reach out to school, ie. sell directly to school. Reason is simple, to reach out to this big and lucrative market segment. Just take September for example, flip-flop maker Havaianas, a brand owned by Sao Paulo Alpargatas SA, plans to set up a temporary "pop-up" store on five campuses in the U.S.  





Victoria's Secret's Pink, a young women's clothing brand, this fall is opening its own pop-up store at about 12 schools, up from 10 last spring. Sustainable-clothing brand RVL7 is installing a bamboo-clad temporary ministore at six to eight campuses this fall. I am sure there are more to come. So maybe from next Spring onward, you might able to get LV school bag or Levi's 501 jean from your campus.
