Ciao ragazzi! Favlook – Lookfav Focus: It’s summer suiting for the gents as presented off – runway at Pitti Uomo – s/s 2016

Established in September 1972

Pitti Uomo

is a biannual, trade show event on contemporary menswear fashion.

Held in Florence, Italy

over the course of four days-

Pitti Uomo is a ‘must attend’ on the fashion circuit calendar.

 

It is a stage to present men’s clothing/accessory collections

to an anticipatory international audience

of industry professionals and aficionados.

 

…

Yet, as expected-

the on – runway events for this year’s  menswear,   s / s  2016  presentations

(16 – 19 June 2015)

were rivalled by the off – runway fashion parade of

street style sass sartorial statements.

(Now saw that five times without becoming tongue tied!)

…

Summer suiting seemed the definitive dress directive-

the look elevated by eye-catching accessories:

 

pocket kerchiefs and scarves of prints / colours

smart footwear

weaved straw hats

stacked bracelets

small clutches and oversized carriers

swank sunnies

 

all wonderfully enhanced by the essential element of

sprezzatura –

the Italian dress sense of

effortless, elegant, confidant style .

 

…

Off – runway

Summer Suiting

Pitti Uomo,  s / s 2016

 Bellisimo!

Menswear Fashion Week Travel Itinerary

Fall 2015

 

Menswear Fashion Week- Fall 2015

has arrived in Paris, France.

The Fashion Week show travels commenced with

a first stop in London for LC: M  (London Collections:  Men)

next stop was the Pitti Uomo (Florence, Italy)

and now the final leg of the menswear fashion journey

ends in Paris, France.

The Show Summations

Runway presentations in London are electric:

avant garde, forward thinking, boundary push innovation.

The atmosphere in Florence, both on and off the runway

is the epitome of style spezzatura:  cool, confident, effortless.

accessories, men's fashion, men's fashion accessories, men's fashion trends, menswear, menswear - bold accents

A statement-worthy accessory is key to elevating an outfit

to great sartorial heights.

It  can be the spotlight, stand-out feature of an ensemble

or an integral, yet quiet element of subtle interest.

 

…

 

Whatever its unique dress role, as accented by:

a hat, a tie, a piece of jewellery, a pair of socks (or lack of),

a pair of shoes, a pair of specs,  a pair of gloves , a bag or case-

 

an on-point accessory (or two, or three)

is fashion de rigueuer for achieving an inspired look.
