Fashion East and Topman collaborated their efforts to launch menswear show called MAN. The British Menswear Designer of the Year-Kim Jones launched his KJ by Kim Jones range with MAN and also Cassette Playa, Topman Design with Aitor Throup showcasing his collection.
Aitor Throup presented a collection named ‘The Funeral of New Orleans’ which incorporated a theme that told tales about the destruction caused by hurricane Katrina in 2005. The whole collection was pretty much metamorphic and hats off to the designer for creating a collection with so much of thought in to it. Every piece of clothing had a tale to tell and something to represent, thus making the collection huge if not in style then in the idea itself.
Kim Jones presented his cool, refined, casual clothing which was also well tailored. Sporty tees, laid back denim and light knits looked cool on men and the palette was manly enough consisting basically of dove grey, white, beige and Oxford blue. Next came, designer Carrie Munden. Tees, hoodies, baggy shorts, in short ‘loose’ was his mantra on the ramp. Graphics were another thing visible in large amount on the ramp.
Topman Design was another designer to catch up with some commercial designs, which don’t need much of explanation anyways. The color palette remained grave and no wonders, the collections are worth to catch up with. Be stylish!
