The Age of Men

Wednesday, January 25, 2012



So the mens winter collections have battled the catwalk for the limelight and here are some of my personal favorite contenders. Some stand out collections this season for me include; Givenchy, Mugler, Alexander McQueen and Burberry. Two garments that have made their debut this season are the mens skirt/dress and the cape. Wether it be inspired by femininity, darkness or warriors everyone from Mugler to Jean Paul Gaultier and Dior are adapting the design to the male ensemble.

The above images are my personal favorite outfits and collections from this season. I love how designers are combining usually feminine garments such as the skirt but blending it with a boyish look such as Givenchy

Capes this next winter are going to be a big thing in the mens fashion scene. Wether your a Jack the Ripper or a Roman warrior, a cape will be the new Jacket.

The skirt or man-dress, not entirely accepted by society unless you're a Scot in a kilt, but definitely a garment that will be changing the face of menswear with an almost 'masculine-ist' come back.
