High-res Dries Van Noten FW 2012/13 ‘Now for something a little less subtle’ Is how I feel about Dries Van Noten’s FW collection, not that this is a bad thing. Teaming classic cut’s with garish print for once actually works with some of the suits in this collection being perfect for those that want to make an impact whilst still looking smart - these definitely aren’t your dads Hawaiian shirts. The outerwear is an absolute triumph and I would give my right arm for some of the coats featured in the collection, elegant takes on the classic pea coat in plain dark colours stop the overall collection from being too ‘showy’ and I just love it!

High-res Christian Lacroix  Homme FW 2012/13 Lacroix’s FW collection is very much a lesson in ‘sharp’ dressing that any modern gentleman would be proud of. Classic cut’s that contour the bodies shape perfectly are massively on show, and I can’t help but love the bold lines featuring on shirt plackets as well as collars - helping to add that touch of interest and style to some of the more simple suits on show, proving that sometimes understated is best. The ‘skinny’ leg has slowly been fading away from recent catwalks and Lacroix’s show is no exception, with the suit trousers having a more relaxed fit whilst still remaining dapper - the suits on show would not be out of place on ‘Mad Men’ and that’s just how I like my suits.
