always loved this look. killer social event at night look.

Wow, it is all over the place. Lots of dark, dark colors. DBs with incredibly short jackets, small lapels, giant '70s lapels. I don't know what to think. I see some stuff I like though.

Not a fan of that cut. Extremely piched waist with flared-out hips; looks pear-shaped and feminine. Bring on the angry masses, but I'm sticking to my guns here.

+1, I don't like what's in the pic.

thanks for posting-- thought there was a LOT more to like than dislike from what i saw. especially the purple label, consistently awesome.

 

[sho'nuff]

you guys dont like that above look? it does look slightly effeminate, but i think it is more the guy's build. i dont know, the look mesmerizingly appeals to me.

Awesome look, kudos to the double monks

Overall I liked it. Not a fan of how short a lot of the jackets were, though. This is my favorite db look.

Coincidentally it appeared to be the longest jacket for them also. Agree that the short jackets on the db make them look effeminate.

Who else makes such a cut? (including bespoke)

 

[sho'nuff]

i think the drake db look is geared towards that slim dandy appearance. shorter db length works well with a tall, slim body. i have this in a long (it runs regularish; the R runs sort of Short like the photos) but it doesn work well in the conservative business look. it just looks sort of a dandy db fit a bit too long. if you know what i mean.

 

[Recoil]

Very few offerings I'm a fan of this year. The 3 pieces are excellent as usual though.

 

[Marcus Brody]

Did the offerings/photography make a lot of the models' heads look disproportionately small to anyone else?

I just don't see a lot of average guys being able to pull off this look successfully. Even if you have a tall, trim athletic build it appears too tight, too short and unforgiving. What about guys with full legs or larger butts. They would look silly trying to wear this. I think people will want what flatters them and few will find that in this seasons line. The comment that it looks a bit feminine may be appropriate too. Too close to the short jacket style that every 28y/o female wears.

^^^ This. Plus the waists on the jackets look too tapered to my eye.
