Menswear Fall-Winter 2013-14 (Mens Fashion Week - London, Milan, Paris) - Page 12

Seems Junya's toning down on the workwear vibe. Less rivets and leather, a lot of patchwork and monochrome. Which is cool. Looks like that chest square design is the calling card for the collection. The thing about all those jackets/blazers/coats though is those squares give the effect they do when the piece is worn over some other heavy piece. He's got his models wearing blazers over macs so the squares end up sort of flowering out from the one button. Nice but not how one would wear that kind of garment. Will be curious to see how the stuff hangs on its own without the wonky layering. Makes me sad that I was in college and couldn't afford his iconic stuff from a few years ago, but whatever he's still fresh as fuck imo.

Oh come on !

boris was boring, much weaker than his previous few that seemed to set himself apart from that crowded niche.
damir is certainly not relenting with his failed forays into formalwear and tailoring with a twist...at least he didn't wear nikes on the runway

faust needs to sue kva

Boris was a bit lackluster. I was expecting to be blown away like in past collections but it all just seemed toned down.

why is the dior collection full of airline seatbelts

Hello.




Damir did seem pretty tame but there are a lot of pieces I would wear so I dunno.

Half zip sweaters everywhere, fucking hell


DH was criminally bland, belts and tiny zips with stupid tiny pulls. From memory, SS and FW 2011 and SS 2012 at least had something going on besides slim suits and trenchcoats.

Yeah, DH was a snooze. Very sterile, very dead.

Damir, I think, has moved on from Miyake and now just wants to copy Armani. It's tired already.

I liked Boris a lot. I wasn't as much a fan of his previous collections because they were too grungy to me. This felt a lot more polished, though I guess it also took fewer risks. I dunno, I was into it. Several whole looks looked great to me. I am getting tired of the all black/white/gray stuff however. Just a little variation would be nice.

This was the DD group's description for the show:
