Tonight we celebrate the 88th Annual Academy Awards one of the most controversial in years. Thankfully all the boycotting and blatant racism has no place on the red carpet. As expected the stars were out in their absolute best and like their films some were great and others not so much. Take a look at our Oscar fashion winners and nice people who should try again next year.

In keeping with his previous collections, Greg Lauren brings us a full presentation of old world antics (think newsboys and boxing matches) with a post-apocalyptic twist. Consistent in his distressed detailing Lauren’s FW2016 Men’s collection provides a unique approach to sportswear. Keeping to hues of olive, gray, brown, and black, the collection is anything but drab. Lauren is an artist, and his work is presented with such imagination. Collections always “tell a story”, but often the story is left to the viewer’s imagination, sometimes with rough guidelines that indicate the feeling or direction the designer intends the collection to take – Lauren presents the story and the collection as one.

GANT was founded by Ukranian immigrant Bernard Gantmache and his sons in 1949. It all started as a family business built around a simple well constructed shirt and has since grown into a major fashion brand. The house of GANT is divided in three distinct sub-brands: GANT Originals, GANT Rugger and GANT Diamond G. All three brands were represented at New York Fashion Week via an eye opening presentation. The inspiration was classic preppy style with a modern edge.

Kenneth Ning’s Summer/Spring 2016 collection is a refreshing exploratory leap from seasons past. The color palette has evolved to evoke bright spices. Complex prints reminiscent of sand mandalas bounce throughout the line. Vibrant mustard yellow and crisp jade run along side deep navy. Floral jacquards punctuate a horizontal take on the pinstripe suit. Sheer bandanas emblazoned with floral prints serve to accessorize the outfits, sometimes going so far as to shield the entire face from view.

Subtlety has always been the name of the game with Carlos Campos. His Spring/Summer 2016 collection is inspired by the “Forastero” – the stranger, the outsider – the man alone who stands out but is wholly a mystery to all. Campos conveys this theme with a solid line of muted, hunter green garments, peppered with palm prints, pops of camel, and one solitary red, camo, sleeveless suit. The structuring remains relaxed, as we are accustomed, but the double-breasted, belted blazers,  give the line a more rigid, upright, and utilitarian look.

General Idea Autumn/Winter 2015 Collection

by John Stolen

Highwaters, pinstripes, and pleats – oh my! Proceed with caution, gentlemen, the 90s are back in full swing and the Autumn/Winter 2015 men’s collection for General Idea is not for the faint of heart – but rather for the fashion forward. With footwear provided by Dr. Marten, this collection makes a very clear statement. We’re not super keen on pleated pants in general, or high water trousers, but the dark, woolen fabrics and the simple, streamlined knit sweaters are definitely something we can get behind. A favorite? The color-blocked, full-length, sleeveless, wool coat – out of a relatively jarring collection, this piece is truly to die for.
