More Men's Fashion Week: Dior Homme

No surprise here.  Dior Homme follows many of the trends we've been seeing this Spring Fashion Week in Milan.

Sloppy tousled look and cropped pants.  Looks like Robert Pattinson has more influence than we think.

Leather dog tags?  Or just the best eye candy on the runway...


My favorite takeaway: don't be afraid to mix brown and black.  It was a theme last year for Fall 2010 for women and it looks like it has now trickled down to the men as well.  Who says brown and black shouldn't be friends?  That's a stinky stale tradition.  This new one smells like freesia - take a whiff.

Men's Spring RTW 2010 - Giorgio Armani

Hello boys!  It's day 3 of my Men's RTW Spring 2010 fashion week posts.  Is it me or do they just keep getting scrummier? 

Let's start with the stripes and the denim.  Both are huge for Spring 2010, but the concept just isn't sitting right with me.  I feel like we're going backwards in fashion.  Maybe it's because fashion is cyclical or maybe it's because denim is cheap in light of the recession, but to me denim will always be what you wear to lounge around in and paint the walls.  Somehow a denim suit or a blazer paired with jeans screams anything but high class to me.  

But the spats.  Those I can handle.  The spats and the pin stripe suits in earth tones and geometric patterned shirts?  Delish.  That's the kind of classic chic I was expecting from you, Armani.

And note to Armani - don't get me wrong, the women are beautiful.  Too beautiful.  They totally stole the limelight away from the men.  Are you insecure about your menswear designs so you felt you had to provide the public a taste of what's to come with the women?  Or did you honestly think the women would enhance the runway?  Because in my eyes they only overshadowed.  Bad move.

Men's RTW 2010 - Bottega Veneta

Bottega takes the whole "just rolled out of bed look" to the next level.

Slouchy, partly tucked shirts, haphazard scarves, and elastic ankle-length pants decorated the Men's RTW 2010 Bottega Veneta Runway.  Oh, and manbags.  Cannot forget the luscious signature leather weave that Bottega's known for.  Cannot forget the manbags.

Men's RTW Spring 2010 - Ferragamo

Hold on to your knickers.  It's time to feature the men.  *sighhh

I'm such a sucker for spats.  And now, I can add orange to my list of favorite colors on men.
