I actually like the FW 18 look book over the SS18 and FW 17 Eidos :(. Is that a crime?

not yet..., can you try it somewhere though, I would think that's the ultimate test, I think the overcoat is its strong point, suit is same plane Jane blaz cut, fabric is more city/light which is fine, but lots of competition that offers something similar

Only on SF.

Im not a fan of the suits but the leather and suede jackets are nice. I also like the blue peacoat. The stuff will appeal to a younger market. I wouldn't wear the stuff from antonio's collection if I was 24.

agree on the younger market part and it's definitely more "English" maybe we're swinging back to english again, just with soft shoulder...

If there's a market for the Eidos Ciro cut suit Antonio should inquire to see if the Martin Greenfield can replicate the cut and sell it on a mtm/custom basis.

I dont know the items I tried from the original collection were too tight in shoulders and too short in the sleeves so I gave up on the brand.

Ciro and NMWA were very close from what I remember. I think buttoning stance and length were off by 1cm or so between the two.

Whatever the case, if he's going to be working out of a studio in NYC and there's a market for tailored suits I would consider offering a custom option.


Do you guys think there would be more of an appeal if Simon's and Antonio's collection were combined together? I feel like each collections are at one end of the extreme.

If I could fit into some of those skinny outfits I would have no problem wearing the new collection

I think the aesthetics will be too confusing, though NMWA gets to keep its stuff so I suppose the niche will stay
