Paris Menswear SS15: Valentino
In Paris this menswear season Valentino was a little bit of this and a little bit of that. This was free-spirited and that was evocative of calmer days gone by. Well, as it goes, Maria Grazia Chiuri and Pierpao...
Paris Menswear SS15: Carven
Menswear à la française kick-started in Paris today, and it was all suitably Parisian. Carven’s lauded Guillaume Henry charmed with a lovably apathetic somewhat sterile spread of boyish clothing. The simplifie...

Milan Menswear SS15: Giorgio Armani
Stand down, because Giorgio Armani reigns supreme over all back-door menswear hopefuls. One almost gets the feeling that the comments Armani, ever the opinionated creative, made not so long ago blasting designe...
Milan Menswear SS15: Roberto Cavalli
You could almost smell the palm trees sizzling under the blistering Miami Boulevard sun, mixed with just a robust whiff of Drakkar Noir and, perhaps, gasoline, at Roberto Cavalli today in Milan, where the desig...

Raf Simons/Sterling Ruby release A/W 2014/15 campaign
Raf Simons and Sterling Ruby released their Autumn/Winter 2014 campaign only recently and it’s nothing short of the typically reticent iconoclast material that we all expected. The fourth creative alliance betw...
Milan Menswear SS15: Prada
At Prada this season, the exposed stitch ensembles signaled that there was to be no deception, it was Prada laid bare. As always. Of course Prada felt compelled to tick all of the unisex boxes for “universal” c...
Milan Menswear SS15: Calvin Klein
As a brand Calvin Klein usually always has its finger on the modern woman’s pulse and its vital signs have always been healthy, but can the same be said for their menswear? I think so. This season, creative dir...
Milan Menswear SS15: Vivienne Westwood
In true Vivienne Westwood fashion, the SS15 show in Milan was explosion of punk nonconformity. She presented us with exaggerated suits, reminiscent of a mad hatter tea party with enlarged top hats, striking pat...
Milan Menswear SS15: Bottega Veneta
It’s impossible to be distressed by luxury, but in Milan today Bottega Veneta went ahead and distressed luxury. This season scaled back typically showy haut monde menswear in favour of ragamuffin suavity. Shape...
Milan Menswear SS15: Versace
Versace maketh the man, and what a mighty good man they make. Undeniably, the thaumaturgy behind their menswear offerings is due to the pleasure Donatella takes in sculpting Hercules incarnate. This season was ...

Gieves & Hawkes output is always watertight. There is something about being the most respected mainstay on Savile Row that takes you places, and after over 200 years of creating some of the finest bespoke g...
LC:M Xander Zhou SS15
Xander Zhou was loud – I think he wanted to prove a point. Hot, heavy and throbbing, Zhou’s SS15 demonstration, labelled Hyperdrive, was a rather luring foray into the male psyche. As utility-glam as can be, th...

Craig Green’s debut solo show is nothing short of poetic beauty. Executed in a palette heady with chemical brights and tonic navy’s the SS15 collection is engaging and wonderfully put together. The silhouette c...
LC:M Alexander McQueen SS15
Sarah Burton OBE is slowly but surely taking McQueen down new routes with just the respect that should befit such a titled house. So a move to neo-McQueen sportswear was called for, and for all intents and purp...
LC:M SS15: James Long
A primary-colour storm tore through James Long’s menswear this season, though a sporty splice of the tropics steadied the stormy semblance before a boisterous boxing motif ramped up the high-energy. It was boxi...
LC:M Richard James SS15
Atten-hut, it's time for the desert rats to come out and play. Richard James of Savile Row took us to the faraway reaches of the Saharan desert today and stationed us with the desert rat troopers of the late Th...
