V Ave Shoe Repair Fall / Winter 2012 Menswear Runway

I am a huge fan of Swedish brand V Ave Shoe Repair and their Fall / Winter 2012 Menswear runway got me in all the right places.  Signature draping, deconstructed silhouettes, and strong conceptual vision results in masculine tailored looks inspired by the idea of X-Rays and the inner workings of the body.  I want all it!

Jehee Sheen Fall / Winter 2012 Menswear Lookbook

Titled "transcendence", Jehee Sheen menswear collection comes together beautifully for Fall/Winter 2012.  A minimalist and almost zen-like approach to the season, a solemn palette of white, black and greys in combination with monastic silhouettes are elevated with refined and elegant details.  Tailored oversized outerwear, banded mandarin collars, and an interesting play on proportion result in sculptural looks that are still extremely wearable.  Also, I personally love the herringbone print used throughout the collection to breakup the mostly solid offerings.  Below, find poem by the designer himself to describe the inspiration of the season titled being, being, being.

being, being, being

Facing toward endless horizon

At the moment, I realize for a shadowy ego.

Then I become smaller, and smaller.

I let my grasped hands loose.

Everything vanish in a puff of smoke. 

Eyes get deeper, 

Lips become heavier.

Fall into the great silence...

At the endless moment, I feel I am being.

Then I become clear, and clear.

Overall, a very cool collection.  More looks below:

The Virdi-anne Fall / Winter 2012 Menswear Lookbook

Japanese label The Viridi-anne Fall / Winter 2012 menswear lookbook is captured by Mote Sinabel against an industrial wasteland.  Taking form and structure into the beautifully layered looks, the collection examines the idea of protective garments.  The result?  Insulated parkas and loosely tailored jackets that are all so cool.   Want it all!

I love The Viridi-anne and have for a couple of seasons now.  It's just so .... me.
