Classics with a twist.

This is what menswear designers are offering for the coming Fall season. Most are focused on offering new takes on a timeless look that exudes style and elegance.

The Hermès show reached beyond traditional fashion runway expectations to offer a truly sensuous experience for the audience. House designer, Véronique Nichanian plays with technology and says one of her biggest pleasures is to collaborate with artisans on the development of new fabrics and construction techniques. In the new line, she modifies the rigid structure of the tailoring and uses a subtle, yet masculine selection of fabrics and cuts.  

Collaborations are also a signature this season. Two big creative forces came together when American visual artist Sterling Ruby worked with Belgian fashion designer, Raf Simons on his new collection. The result is a new look, rich in graphics and textures that is sure to catch on with the discerning fashion-forward man.

Versace‘s fall collection takes its inspiration from two of the most iconic tribal subcultures from our society, bikers and cowboys. Donatella utilizes colored denim and techno-fabrics on her new designs which are intended for the gentleman unafraid to make an entrance.
