LONDON MENSWEAR COLLECTIONS // DAY 4


Day 4 was the pinnacle of men’s fashion it gave us true masculine style from all angles whether it was classical men’s tailoring which is the quintessential business man that looks put together from day to night in his clean lines and suiting. To the rock and roll man who just oozes sex appeal on the stage making everyone want to sleep with him and take off those flashy accessorized jackets or lastly to the uber hyper masculine outdoor mans man who could kill a bear with his bare hands dressed in his leather and plaids and make everyone feel safer with them around. No matter what type of man you admire or enjoy looking at the collections from day 4 had exactly what everyone wants, a well-dressed man! and here are some of the stand outs:

LONDON MENSWEAR COLLECTIONS // DAY 3



Print’s, print’s and more print’s day 3 continued off where day 2 left off and gave us even more prints and graphic quality clothing. In an age where menswear can get monotonous and predictable day 3 took us somewhere we don’t really see very often which is the boarder line of crazy. Now I may personal not like the almost non wearable fashion statements that some designers will show it doesn’t mean there isn’t a place for them in fashion, if you can take just one piece from a crazy look and make it fashionable with an everyday ensemble than the designer has done their job. So I recommend that you take a look at the day 3 shows from London if that is your style. As for me I really enjoyed a lot of looks from day 3 to the sophisticated Alexander McQueen show to the graphic almost pop art coats from KTZ. I would also be kidding myself if I didn’t mention the mixed media’s that were going on between mixing prints and mixing textiles I found myself not being able to look away, I think it is one of the greatest things fashion has ever done because it always makes a look interesting even if the silhouette is simple. Though with all that being said hope you enjoy some of my favorite looks from LCM: day 3.

LONDON MENSWEAR COLLECTIONS // DAY 2



Continuing on with yesterday’s trend of subtle color palettes the LCM day 2 shows also showcased a few other trends that I am really enjoying. As a tall person you can sometimes not find clothes that fit in your shoulders while also fitting in the length department, so I’ve really been in love with the long length trend. I feel like it brings a fresh take to men’s silhouettes and is a functional take on fashion for taller men. Not only is that trend really noticeable on day 2 we were seeing a continuation of tartan prints whether it be in suits or coats or anywhere in between, tartan is an iconic look in British Fashion and is classic and can never go out of style. So here are some of my favorite pieces from day 2:

LONDON MENSWEAR COLLECTIONS // DAY 1



Every season I get excited to see what trends are going to take precedence on the fashion community, and just like the rest of the world our eyes go to London first as we get to see the first glimpse of what’s to come now for me this is always amazing because I love British fashion. Whether it’s the vibe, the look, the feel, I don’t know there is always something that draws me into their world and the culture surrounding it. I also love how London is committed to the up and coming designers and have showcased how to build up a community, quite well might I add. So as LCM continues on for the next few days I will be showcasing some of my favorite looks from each day. Starting with day 1:



So far I’ve been loving what I am seeing from the men’s collections a bit of downtown grunge meets classic tailoring with a sixties and seventies vibe. With touches of navy and white and neutral grey’s it’s everything that I could ask for. I especially love the coats from MAN (4) and Christopher Kane (5). Since coats are the perfect accessories for any outfit because you can essentially where throw them on with anything.
