well i thought it would be cool to have a look at the up and coming menswear spring collections for 2012 and here are a few of my favourites for the upcoming season, hope you enjoy them as much as i have..
etro spring 2012.
etro are probably one of my favourite designers. i love their playful use of colour and print and the way they clash and put the outfits together. i particularly love the printed collar in the first picture and what is not to love about a polka dot suit!!
burberry prorsum spring 2012.
colour, geometric shape print, skinny fit and amazing shoes. what else could you ask for in a menswear collection. love the fur trim on the jackets and the teal and other autumnal colours featured in the collection but with a fresher twist ready for spring. definitely would wear everything here, if i was a man that is but really love the cut of the trousers and the shoes, where can i get them from!!
3.1 phillip lim spring 2012.
not a designer i've really looked into that much and it caught my eye as it was the first image on the page and it features ombre effect garments.. if it's good enough for my hair it's definitely good enough for this collection! love the top shirts, would be amazing in a purple or turquoise...mmm! but aside from the ombre i really like the use of layering and although the collection is casual, looser in cut and lacking a lot of the colour and print in the previous collections- i really like it!
kenzo spring 2012.
final collection i'm going to talk about but thought i'd end it with a whammy of a collection. tropical print, stripes, clashing and colour blocking. i like this collection very much. love in fact. really fresh colours and prints and with matching scarves. one of each please.
well all this admiring has left me feeling inspired. think the new year will be a good time to start a new design project and get my portfolio in order, too much eating to do first with christmas being only 4 sleeps away :)
