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.

Mercedes-Benz NY Fashion Week provides the best in global fashion and art. This year’s worldly experience took me to The Republic of Korea, with Concept Korea – an annual collaborative project of fashion collectives that introduce Korean style overseas. The spring 2015 season was a special year as Concept Korea’s celebrated its 10th anniversary with “The Golden Movement” theme, which means to bring precious waves of changes to the fashion world with three new Korean designers’ collections.

Bespoken S/S ‘15 took casual style to the next level with a collection that feels like the fashionable soundtrack of New York City millennial professional, on the go. Street-style is more prevalent now than ever – and Bespoken creative directors Sammy and Lian Fayed, are on-trend with a sporty twist.

Standout looks A navy blazer that flows into an earthy pattern of leaves paired with shorts with the same leaf pattern; a gray suit with a white whisker-wash; and the introduction of sneakers that feel fresh and unforced.

J.Lindeberg S/S ’15 “Biotopia” took a cue from English street style and I could not be happier! Designer Jessy Heuvelink’s vision of rock-and-roll spunk from the late 1960s continues, but with a clear emphasis on chic details that provide a contemporary feel.

Safe went out of the window with this collection, as Heuvelink created his own rules – mixing leather, studs, shiny polish oxfords, animal patterns, floral prints, and shiny polish oxfords. Kudos to J. Lindeberg RTW Spring 2015 for producing one of the best looks of the entire season – a camel and black zebra-striped cardigan/jacket hybrid, paired with a black sheer tank, and tailored black pants.

Aptly named MARITIME, designer Luis Antonio’s Spring-Summer 2015 Collection draws inspiration from the island waters of his San Juan, Puerto Rico homeland and his love of graphic designs in bold nautical colors.  Presented on September 6 at The Pavilion at Lincoln Center during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York City, Antonio’s dresses, skirts and pants popped and sashayed down the runway.

by xoJohn

OK fashion lovers, I must vent for a few minutes. This past New York Fashion Week was a absolute mess. Here’s why:

Weeks prior to fashion week, rumors were swirling that IMG would not approve credentials for a lot of bloggers. Slowly but surely a few of my fellow bloggers said they were denied credentials.
