Religion Clothing: SS12 Collection

Religion Clothing: SS12 Collection *
Spring/Summer 2012 Religion Clothing Collection

If you don a rebellious style, the likelihood is you will already be aware of Religion. However, for those of you not in the know, Religion is the go to brand for those who want to add some modern anarchic influence into their wardrobe. Working consistently within a classic palette of grey, black and stone enables the brand to deliver both statement and neutral pieces. This season is no different.

Having placed their own stamp on spring/summer 2012 fashion, the brand has focused on intelligent layering and edgy detailing. Alternative shapes and cutting techniques sees oversized tops and dropped crotch bottoms appear consistently throughout the collection. True originality comes in the form of transparent sleeveless waterfall cardigans and experimental outerwear. Recognition of current trends is displayed through rolled up bottoms and bold print shorts and tees.

A stand out piece is the washed grey overlap knit. With a dropped cowl neck, creative fastening technique and quirky cut this piece is both stylish and forward in its design and shape.

Although similarities may be made to high street favourite AllSaints, Religion still maintains its own look and style. An original direction along with creative designs sees the brand remain as identifiable and relevant as it’s always been.

Public School Clothing: AW12 Collection

Public School Clothing: AW12 Collection *
Public School AW12 Clothing

“Urbane: suavity regarded as characteristic of sophisticated social life in major cities.”

This is a definition perfectly describing the lookbook images accompanying Public School’s new autumn/winter 2012 collection. The New York based designers blend together various pieces of outerwear – from tightly fitting leather jackets to looser woollen coats – in order to create a plethora of refined urban looks.

Public School have highlighted the importance of layering to deal with the impending chill of winter, by teaming various tailored blazers and coats with sharp, defined layers underneath. They have also reversed this approach in various look by combining shorter Letterman and leather jackets with oversized knitwear. A distinctly urban feel is created through the use of leather items and dark hues, which are juxtaposed with a preppy edge – achieved via the variety of tailored knitwear and shirts utilised beneath.

The key items within the lookbook are generally monochromatic in colour, rarely moving from the darkest shades of navy or black; the dress code for inner city life. However, the dusky winter palette is contrasted throughout with cream and white knitwear to further emphasise collegiate accents within the collection.

In a collection of constant contrast, the brains behind the lookbook, Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osbourne, have managed to blend the traditional hipster influences of Brooklyn with the smart, privileged socialites of Manhattan. The result is a new brand of style stemming from two trends which are, in principle, divergent.

Overall, Public School have managed to expand the boundaries of the aforementioned approaches to fashion, thus providing sleek yet aloof ideas of inspiration for the winter months.

Folk Clothing: AW12 Collection

Folk Clothing: AW12 Collection *
Folk AW12 Collection

Committed to designing wearable, contemporary apparel with a strong emphasis on quality and craftsmanship, London-based label Folk is setting an unprecedented standard for modern menswear. Shunning gaudy sartorial expressionism, the Folk man favours a well-groomed, considered sensibility, nuanced with quirky details. A simple statement from the label is a concise summary of the brand’s design spirit: “We do not try and re-create the wheel in terms of styles but focus on developing our own fabrics, trims and design details to create easy-wearing garments with that little bit of something extra that hopefully sets Folk apart from its peers.”

Founded by Scottish-born Cathal McAteer in 2001 with the objective of designing clothes that his friends would want to wear, this ever-popular label operates from compact, well-formed creative quarters behind their flagship store on London’s Lambs Conduit Street.

Renowned as something of a mecca for the stylish urban gent who is after something a little more individual, Lambs Conduit Street, in the capital’s Bloomsbury district, has seen its sartorial profile significantly enhanced since the arrival of the brand, with other independent labels following suit and opening premises on the tranquil West End thoroughfare.

Remaining dedicated to the philosophy of creating ‘clothes for the everyday man’, McAteer continues to commission his closest friends to model the brand’s collections, which emphasises the genuine, no-nonsense charm of Folk’s designs. When questioning the man behind the label about their intimate design process, McAteer states: “Every single thing is thought through. We consider every single design option, all the thought-processes are so pain staking and laborious…”. If that’s not dedication to your art, then I’m not sure what is.

Technical details and innovative craft techniques are central to Folk’s design DNA, with the creative team working closely with specialist mills to engineer their own unique fabrics and details, that make the label’s designs standout from its sartorial contemporaries.

The AW12 collection continues the label’s hallmark ‘modern heritage’ tradition, offering an array of casual wearable classics with a twist. As ever, the colour palette is playful, with multi-tone check shirts and vibrant stripe-weave chunky knits a core feature of the line, as well as bold neon-tone legwear; the perfect tonic to any muted-tone winter wardrobe.

Texture is also a key, with quality, rustic wools and rib-weave techniques seen across knitwear, whilst tailoring has an unstructured, fuss-free approach and quirky cold-weather accessories exude a natty-cool character. A felted-wool navy shawl-collar coat stood out as the essential winter cover-up for AW12; its cut and detailing was simultaneously timeless yet up-to-date.

With something to suit every style perceptive man, from colourful warming knits, to practical outerwear, the AW12 assemblage is exceptionally executed with an attention-to-detail dedication; think honed bookish sophistication and put a Folk piece at the top of your sartorial agenda this season.

A fine edit of Folk’s AW12 clothing collection is available now at www.mywardrobe.com.

Neil Barrett Clothing: SS13 Collection

Neil Barrett Clothing: SS13 Collection *
Neil Barrett SS13 Clothing Collection

Descended from several generations of prolific tailors, Milan-based designer Neil Barrett has true sartorial pedigree in his blood. Having studied at the prestigious Central Saint Martins School of Art and Design in London, he spent his post-graduate years refining his design aesthetic within the luxury market, working for the fabled houses of Prada and Gucci. Establishing his own acclaimed namesake label in 1999, Barrett presented his first menswear collection in Milan in 2002.

The recent SS13 show in Italy’s sartorial capital demonstrated this ever-popular designer’s knack for crafting innovative, yet practical garments for the sophisticated rule-breaker.

Presented to the audience in a dramatic, centuries-old pillared space that added to the garments’ distinctly modern sensibility, the show opened with clean-lined pieces in an array of rich blue tones, ranging from navy to cobalt. The central section of the show exhibited high-summer whites and neutrals with tailored, printed shorts of varying lengths and fabrics taking centre stage, as well as dominant stripe motifs, which appeared in a variety of solid, fine and broken forms across the collection. The closing looks of the show took a darker turn, with muted monochrome and black tones dictating the transition of late summer into autumn.

Sports-luxe was once again the central theme for a SS13 collection, with sumptuous bomber and biker style jackets dominant features of the show; a particular standout piece of the outerwear range was an exquisitely-textured quilted design, with artfully-executed padding that exuded and air of modern armour. The collection also demonstrated Barrett’s comprehensive awareness of design trends, with metallic and texture-rich garments, as well as statement patterns on offer throughout the assemblage; iridescent looks held focus in the form of eye-catching metallic cover-ups and high-shine leathers, whilst slim-cut tailoring was shown in solid tones and dynamic prints.

The athletic theme continued with accessories, with models kitted out with backpacks, baseball caps and hi-top trainers. The formalisation of sportswear elements was the key to the success of the collection, as were the luxurious fabrics and superb construction; the quality of the leathers and textural details was evident.

Inherently wearable for men of all age groups, the SS13 offering has an unashamedly youthful, masculine appeal that will make you wish away the following months, just so you can get your hands on one of Barrett’s warm-weather creations a little sooner.

Salvatore Ferragamo SS13 Clothing Collection

Salvatore Ferragamo SS13 Collection

Every so often, a collection hits the runaway that overshadows all others. Ferragamo’s spring/sumer 2013 collection is one of those. Building on this year’s ever growing fascination with the use of colour, every single piece in this collection reinvents the idea of colour blocking.

Moving from searing oranges and reds mixed with astounding blues and teals to bold, fresh creams and whites – not to mention the banana yellow suit that epitomises the daring ethos of the collection, with a near-blinding hue as well as its forward thinking re-introduction of a contemporary double breast.

The variety of colour and shades is mirrored in the extensive variety of cut and shape. Slim line tailoring is chopped between wide fitting macs and overcoats that still managed to hug the waist, creating a neat yet masculine silhouette.

But what really sets these pieces apart from the rest is the vague definition between smart and casual, the coalition between sports shoes and tailored trousers, between handkerchiefs and t-shirts or sports jackets and tie-dye. Each runway look depicts the idea that colour can be both fashion forward and practical, whether it be simply shaped knitwear made of translucent fabrics, or classic shaped raincoats with modern and outrageously contrasting colours and trim.

Very few collections so concisely and directly address a mood and vibe like this, and so rarely does an experimental collection, especially in menswear, turn out to be so wearable. Whether or not you end up walking to work in a mint green blazer twinned with salmon trousers any time soon, it is safe to say that striking colour will be a staple in every man’s wardrobe next year, and that this collection has a huge part to play in that.

Furthermore, and maybe more importantly, judging by the grey, miserable backdrop our summer has been set to this year, next time around we may be seeing some colour, even if it’s us and not mother nature that brings it.
