Karl-Edwin Guerre at Dior
Menswear is becoming an increasingly big part of the retail market, and this week marks the start of men’s SS2014 fashion week with shows in London. Here are a few looks from the archives of great menswear on the streets. Photographer Karl-Edwin Guerre sported a great summer look of yellow madras pants, brown straw fedora, blue button down and matching blue oxfords outside the Dior show.
Snakeskin Print Tee, Outside Derek Lam
Graphic print tees are a cool way to amp up your summer wardrobe, but building an outfit around them can be challenging. This guy at the Derek Lam show layered a snakeskin print tee over a white button down and paired it with neutral khakis and black accessories – a strategy that would work for men and women.
Summer Look, Outside J. Mendel
Love the infusion of color that hits menswear when the weather gets warmer. Here a guest at New York fashion week mixes a sharp blue gingham blazer with green jeans.
H&M Conscious Collection
Fast fashion: we all love it, but it comes at a price. As fun as it is to snap up new pieces from inexpensive fast fashion retailers just a few months after trends appear on the runway, those old trends have to go somewhere to die. H&M is the first major retailer to not only encourage customers to recycle used clothing with in-store drop boxes but to create a whole line of sustainable clothing, much of it made from recycled materials.
The second collection of H&M Conscious, a line of women’s and men’s clothing made of organic cotton, silk tencel, recycled polyester and tulle, debuted with parties across the U.S. last night, including their NYC flagship. Gossip Girl star Penn Badgley attended and posed gamely with fans who’d lined up for photos with him. Party and clothing photos, after the jump. (more…)
Angelo Flaccovento at Ann Demeulemeester
Fashion writer Angelo Flaccovento wore a floral scarf he collected on his travels with pink leather gloves to the Ann Demeulemeester show in Paris – a hint of spring on a chilly day. The shoes are Church’s.
Luca Finotti at Moschino
Luca Finotti bounded past the backstage entrance of Moschino in the snow in a white suit and colorful Moschino sneakers, which apparently work pretty well, because he was really catching some air.
Nick Wooster at Costello Tagliapietra
Men’s style icon Nick Wooster wore these amazing lace-up jodhpurs to the Costello Tagliapietra show in New York, paired with a tweed vest for more English country style, bomber jacket and sunglasses.
Karl-Edwin Guerre at DKNY
Fellow street-style photog Karl-Edwin Guerre of Guerrisms is a snappy but practical dresser throughout all the fashion weeks. On a slushy day outside the DKNY show, he layered bright down jackets and wore L.L. Bean boot-type shoes. The retro Bean boot has been a big hit among the fashion crowd this season, partly thanks to the weather!
Justin O’Shea at Victoria Beckham
Justin O’Shea nimbly jumped through the snow in his bespoke lace-up boots outside the Victoria Beckham show. His graceful recovery, next page.
David Thielebeule at Timo Weiland
David Thielebeule, who recently moved from Allure to become fashion market and accessories director at WSJ, also wore blue and black to the first day of shows at Lincoln Center. He’s also sporting a cool new haircut with shaved sides that nods to ’90s punk. Men: take note.
Ken Downing at Ports 1961
Looking forward to seeing the familiar faces of NY Fashion Week. Check back for the latest updates from the Fall/Winter 2013 shows at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week – which starts at the Lincoln Center tents this morning!
Cold, NYC
No matter what the weather, most New Yorkers are outdoors for long stretches every day, commuting to work or school. A biker in Soho wore a skeleton face mask to combat the cold.
