Great New York Fashion Week ended with some good and interesting deals next spring / summer for us men.
First of all, information for thought after everything
we've seen these days; I think that almost all brands and designers are
gradually giving way to streetwear in order to sell it and take it out of the
suburbs. This, on the one hand, is constructive, because it
"democratizes" the catwalks a little, and on the other hand, the
intention of firms to make money quickly, regardless of whether what they
exhibit is beautiful, ugly or new, is negative.
In any case, the person we saw on MBNYFW is clearly
urban, colorful, with bombers even in soup and oversized sizes. This is a
highlight and it will surely become a trend.
The scorching heat of New York could not overwhelm the
fashion crowd. The growing roster of designers appearing this season has given
an even brighter picture of the state of menswear in the Big Apple than in
previous years. With new features such as the sleek and flowing craftsmanship
of Deveaux and the rebellious and confident aesthetics of Gypsy Sport, a brand
that is making a splash with its gender-specific apparel, New York menswear has
come to mean more than classics. sportswear. Some were of course preferred over
others, but when we look at the last week of men's spring / summer 2017, we
find real favorites in the works of Ovadia & Sons, Siki Im, General Idea,
Brett Johnson and Kenneth Ning. Here are some of our highlights.
ROMANTIC URBAN
Critics endlessly praise the latest collection of
Varvatos. For the presentation of his latest collection, he surrounded himself
only with his fans and called them to the Roxy Hotel, or rather to the Django
bar. His latest collection looks like something out of a 70s rock 'n' roll
concert, perhaps with more romantic overtones. This is one of his best
collections in a long time, urban details, biker jackets softened with linen
and bows instead of ties. An ode to romanticism.
ROMANTIC URBAN
Let Varvatos look after the crowd. For his latest
menswear show, the designer invited guests to experience his designs in person
at The Django underground nightclub at the Roxy. His last performance was a
rock and roll style with a touch of romance that made this collection one of
the best in a while, with the stiffness of motorcycle jackets softened by linen
neck scarves and skinny pants.
TO THE GYM
This season we saw sporty styles again, but slightly more
updated and modernized. Tommy Hilfiger, Todd Snyder and Stumpd Chris staked on
them. As you can see in the depictions, these are more of the street styles put
on the catwalks that set the trends. Maradonna will be delighted.
IN TIME
The sporty atmosphere of this season has been continued
with a modern take on the classic tracksuit. Tommy Hilfiger, Todd Snyder, and
Chris Stamp from Stumpda have come up with retro styles reminiscent of Wes
Anderson's Royal Tenebaums. Hour Tenenbaum will be proud of this.
THINK ABOUT ROSE
Pink in all its range is more than present in many
collections for men, especially Rochambeau, John Elliot and Brett Johnson. Many
critics do not recognize this shade of pink for men, which, by the way, is not
bad at all in the summer.
THINK PINK
“We saw a lot of cool pastel colors for guys, especially
dusty pink,” said Sam Lobban, Porter's purchasing manager, at the e-commerce
site party during NYFW: M. In fact, several collections: Rochambeau John
Elliott and Brett Johnson including, they showed at least one pink look. This
should give Brad Pitt the 2009 Cannes Suit a chance to justify his money.
