Saint Laurent At The Palladium: AW16 Menswear
Last night we gave you a teaser - now here's the full shebang from last night's Saint Laurent extravaganza at the Palladium in Los Angeles. There was menswear. And some womenswear. Consider that bit a "Part 1". Hedi loves his music,
McQ: Menswear AW16
Let's just say that we're very much a "yes" to any show that includes a thigh-high lace-up boot in its opening look. Spesh when it's for men. Feels like something the more "fashion forward" members of Team 10 (Garth) would be
Michael Kors: AW16 Menswear
"Love a bear moment," or so our dearly departed Editorial Director Mr Miles may have heard calling up from his basement lair. So, as if in a form of translatlantic goodbye, Michael Kors presented just that at his AW16 Menswear show
Hilfiger Edition: AW16 Menswear
We're thinking of school boys when we look at Tommy Hilfiger's latest men's collection. But not like boy boys. Sixth formers. Sixth form boys when you are in year eleven. Relentlessly better than you. Ascending each day to the common room
Calvin Klein: Eveningwear Capsule Collection
Mass foil fashion moment at Calvin Klein's Eveningwear Capsule collection, shown in New York yesterday. For what says eveningwear more than a pair of gold foil trousers? A bit like being clad in the a very glamorous version of a
Public School: AW16 Menswear
Public School's collection was inspired by Bowie's Man Who Fell To Earth, in which the shape-shifting icon plays an extra-terrestrial hunting the earth for water to ship back to his drought-ridden planet. Which now makes me want to be an extra-terrestrial
Berluti and Brioni Part Ways With Creative Directors
All is a-change in the world of menswear - in news that broke yesterday, Berluti and Brioni have announced that they will be parting ways with their respective creative directors, Alessandro Sartori and Brendan Mullane. Will the houses be doing a
Hood By Air: AW16 Menswear
Where else to descend to on a Monday morning than into Hood By Air's smoke-filled, post-apocalyptic lair? Let's be honest, it's how we're all feeling. Sunlight hurts our delicate weekend-damaged eyes. But in amongst the smog their are are joys to
Thom Browne: AW16 Menswear
A besuited dour duo yanked dust sheets off regency gilt frames, armchairs and a crystal chandelier as the opening act to a Thom Browne show that took memory as its central theme. We don't mean the "Cats" soundtrack, mercifully, but
Paul Smith: AW16 Menswear
Red and yellow and pink and green, purple and orange and blue. We haven't totally cracked due to fashion week fatigue: we're just dissecting the prism of colours crammed into the Paul Smith winter show - sometimes half a dozen
Lanvin: AW16 Menswear
Lucas Ossendrijver has been at Lanvin for a decade: was there a party atmosphere, then, for his autumn/winter show? More of an intimate gathering of friends. Intimacy was the emotion he sought to evoke, pulling his audience close and tight
Wooyoungmi: AW16 Menswear
Gender-free dressing is fashion's current favourite topic - and it's one Wooyoungmi tackled with aplomb. They were inspired by a garden - after all, a garden is no genders and all, with all those soft lobe-like flowers and phallically protruding
Acne Studios: AW16 Menswear
We wound up thinking of Arte Povera - the poor looking art movement - while watching the Acne Studios presentation. We're clever like that, see, and Acne's use of buttons as decoration, odd fabrics and giant blown-up rick-rack braid was
Hermès: AW16 Menswear
Hermès, oh Hermès. Let us count the ways we love you. We love your cashmere, extra thick, in great colours like turquoise and big fat juicy raspberry pink. We love you printed silks, wrapped around the slender necks of your
Balmain: AW16 Menswear
Balmain's army aren't that great at camouflage. Well, they're not unless you’re trapped in a giant glitter ball. Or a chandelier factory. Or the Swarovski HQ in glittery, shimmery shiny Austria, who must celebrate February 23rd as a national holiday
