There is a certain measure of  ‘je ne sais quoi’,

an almost indescribable special something

about a man sporting a well-fitted jacket.

…

Be it part of an ensemble of matching jacket and trousers,

cut from the same cloth for an intended constructed look or

an unique deconstructed look of seemingly discordant pieces,

yet which perfectly harmonise:

the effect is evident, a jacket is a definite style maker.

 

…

 

 
 

 As the autumnal chill sets in, consider a few jacket styling options:

fashion news item, Jil Sander, Rudolfo Paglialunga

The ‘Queen Supreme’ of minimalist cool

designer, Jil Sander

has retired for a third time,

from the helm of her eponymous label,

which she in founded in 1968.

…

The newly appointed creative head of the Jil Sander label

is Italian designer, Rodolfo Paglialunga.

Sr. Palialunga will present his first offering for the brand

during the spring/summer 2015 season.

…

(quote from fashion.telegraph.co.uk

image from vogue.co.uk):

 

 

“I’m deeply honoured to have the opportunity to take on this role.

I have boundless admiration for the brand as

I strongly believe in its pure vision and values

My aim is to carry forward the fusion between sophistication,

luxury and innovation and bring the house [to] the next level.”

Rudolfo Paglialunga

new creative director at Jil Sander

…

I for one look forward to Sr. Paglialunga’s  interpretation

of the Jil Sander aesthetics:  minimalist … yes

with an injection of ‘wait and see”.

Just a few short months to go.

Berlin fashion scene, Hien Le, Jil, Jil Sander, minimalism, Perret Schaad, spring/summer 2014

 

Since launching her eponymous label in 1973,

the name of German fashion designer

Jil Sander

has been synonymous with fashion minimalism:

clean lines

contained colour palette

style ease

maximum wearability

…

Jil Sander,  s/s 2014

…

Now there is a developing generation of

minimalist me’s

on the Berlin fashion scene,

who are following in the design concept footsteps

of their acclaimed compatriot, Jil Sander.

…

Meet the design pair:  Johanna Perret and Tuttia Schaad of Perret Schaad

called “Jil Sanders’ daughters” by Julia Stelzner in her book Berlin Fashion;

their clothing is of quiet, simple elegance a la Jil Sanders.

…

Also on the Berlin minimalist fashion scene is the anointed

‘Prince of Minimalism’, Hien Le

who launched his label in 2010.

For spring/summer 2014 he remains true to the minimalist aesthetics

with a ray of ‘dawn in tropics’.

AiW (All in White), Dolce & Gabbana, Jil Sander, men's suits, menswear, sneaker fashion, spring/summer 2014

It takes a brave man to wear white on white suiting.

Not really.

Just one who is bit mindful of smudge dangers …

but then it is worth the risk to attire in

AiW

for s/s 2014

A standout look for the style confident gent.

…

Note the sneaker fashion footwear to anchor a casual / carefree effect.
