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

 Bellisimo!

Menswear fashion and design has accelerated to warp speed dimension-

and the energy is electric.

 

…

Menswear trends are no longer, as time of old,

limited to the mundane and expected:

adjusting lapel silhouettes, trouser hems or tie widths.

Today, menswear designs are inspirited with inventive perspectives,

avant garde concepts and boundary explosions of gender non-specific attire.

Nowhere is this more in evidence than during Pitti Uomo (Florence, Italy):

the menswear fashion event of galactic scope.

 

…

Pitti Uomo runway presentations for Fall 2015 are now underway,

to conclude this Tuesday, 20 January.

The designs have not disappointed: inspired and inspirational.

Menswear design have jetted onward into a new frontier

with enthusiasm and with enthused response.

…

Gents, these are exciting times!

…

Consider a few highlights from the Pitti Uomo runway shows for style ideas:

'spezzatura', Fall 2015, fashionspeak, menswear, Pitti Uomo, street style sass, style inspiration

 

 

The fashion high voltage spotlight is now solely positioned on

menswear, autumn 2015

runway designs and street style exhibitions-

as presented during the five day ‘fashionableness’ event,

Pitti Uomo (Florence, Italy).

…

Pitti Uomo has evolved into the fashion world’s

most extravagant menswear occasion.

Established fashion street photographer Scott Schuman,

who is known from his work The Sartorialist,

has dubbed the Pitti Uomo “the Super Bowl of men’s fashion”

for its on and off runway style parade.

Starting 15 January to 19 January 2015, designers presenting at Pitti Uomo

will showcase their crafted menswear collections for a/w 2015.

Yet, it is the greatly anticipated off runway show of enviable Italian flair for

dress spezzatura (seemingly effortless with maximum impact),

which will be much observed and emulated.

…

Why not consider a few street style suggestions:  take note.
