BoO F/W 2009

[keykoo]

Just noticed some new pics up on their website...

Not a fan, but those tartan shirts/jackets might be up someone's alley. The hats are just goofy XD

And of course here's the old pictures of the "runway"

I love this post. The BoO lineup matches trench coats with hiking boots, shows models with grey gloves in what looks like the same fabric as their suits, and slips in a furry eastern euro-esque hat wherever it can, and you target one of the more modest combinations as the "bad one." Even though you're kinda right-- the rise is too low, and the tie even looks tucked into the trousers, which suggests more Dax Flame than sartorial excellence.

Some of the individual items would look wonderful in a different setting (I'm digging the double breasted jacket from #3 and some of the other outerwear pieces). Which is why I'm guessing the items will be sold separately when they actually hit stores.

Meh.

It does have the appearance of a stew, where everything is thrown into the pot

some nice individual pieces for sure. those hats remind me of an Ozwald Boateng show from a few years back where all the models wore those Russian fuzzy hats. Didnt look good then either.

was just looking at these yesterday....some of the outerwear pieces are allright, personally for me the BoO appeal is in basics; will probably pick up a few more shirts in the fall, there is also usually at least a couple of ties that are pretty nice. Beyond that I have a hard time justifying any further purchases from this brand...I also like how they are still pushing the various sperrry collabs. in a lot of their pictures.

Some of the pieces look nice, but I don't like most of these looks.

That's what the gay boys where here in Ketchikan, Alaska.

I'm interested in the shirt that is paired with the chocolate corduroy suit.

I have two BoO suits and they're quite nice, but I've never really been enthralled outside of their suits, shirts, and ties. From my experience, the knitwear has been pretty subpar and the trench this current spring season was disappointing.

Minus the clown hat, I like what the shoes do to throw off a bit of the formality of the db suit.
