BURBERRY FW17 WOMENS

Well we’ve come to an end for Christopher Bailey’s tenure at Burberry. It was quite a roller coaster ride wasn’t it. To me he was much more consistent at hitting the mark than a Tomas Maier I felt. It’s too bad fashion cycles are digested so quickly and our memories are so short to remember this dude’s accomplishments. Quiet a few collections come to mind that I liked, though they now seem to blend into vague color puddles and of course a elongated silhouette repleat with the ubiquitous trench. Two things I didn’t like. The abandonment of the house check, which management somehow deemed overused. Bad move as the streets had always adopted that trademark house code and made it part of our own. Second, the flare pants for men. It was a Bailey quirk through and through, but I never felt it worked well. Anyways who am I to say, let’s celebrate his final collection where he finally embraced the voices on the streets and came with a collection very au courant. Yes, the Nova check is back, front and center. What I do dig more than it’s various interpretations and the trench variations offered are the multi-colored heavy knits. Total looks paraded down the runway look chunky and ready for the cold Northern winters to come! Salute Christopher Bailey!

LOUIS VUITTON FW17 MEN’S WEAR

差點都忘了LV是個High fashion品牌。近來他的新聞只有他和Supreme的合作吧,腰包、電話殻、行李箱…也許之後會開滑板場?確實街頭文化已經入侵整個時裝行業,我也並非在揶揄LV,只是希望他們能夠多放點時間回到設計上。前幾季的LV我確確很喜歡!今季的LV當然繼續瘋狂將自己的標誌放在產品上,圍巾、腰包、恤衫…那裏都有,不再討論這個很討厭的標籤。有一套很像睡衣的印花套裝,雖然睡衣的風氣已經有點過去了,但我很喜歡這件恤衣上的印花。正面看很平均地分成4份,4種不同而又常見於西裝的花紋。還有那些寬大的絲絨褲子,他們沒有像其他品牌誇張的剪裁。簡單直身的寬闊,和絲絨布料互相配合,反而更加高貴。

TOPMAN DESIGN FW17 MEN’S WEAR

Topman從來都很能捉到潮流的前端,因為很快他們的設計系列十分密集。今次明顯是在走90年代的復古輕奢感覺,西裝、長外套、碎花、牛仔,特別一套橙、金色的閃閃上衣襯橙色飛機外套,正好宣告大家這個主題。不過男裝燈籠袖恤衫確實少見,加上背心西裝聽起來好像很奇怪卻又出奇地互相配合。

WOOYOUNGMI FW17 MEN’S WEAR

一種復古和街頭的磨合:大地色、英倫格仔、雙襟大褸融合誇張寬鬆、誇張墊肩、衛衣..等等。一種設計過的隨意,過長的褲子和恤衫,使他們就像從20世紀穿越過來最新潮的藝術家或詩人一樣。後來那些整齊的西裝和絲綢外套說明著這群詩人一絲不苟的個性。
