Proper Wedding Attire for Men

Written by admin on July 31, 2010 – 11:53 am -

Gentlemen, a wedding invitation arrives from someone important - perhaps from your boss, a favorite cousin, or worst of all, an old flame. You've got to go, and you've got to look good. There's no need to panic, say local style experts. Here are their top tips. Read the invitation. It provides important clues to planning your attire. Note the location and time of day. A daytime wedding in a garden is more casual than one in the evening at a church. Suit up. A suit is always appropriate, particularly for a more formal affair. "A navy blue suit, white shirt and tie make up the wedding uniform," says Miguel Lopez, proprietor of the Castro menswear store, Sui Generis.

Highlights of Milan Men’s Fashion Show

Written by admin on June 28, 2010 – 8:07 pm -

At the Milan menswear shows thus far, congratulations must be given to a few of the brands, at least for staying power, if not for anything else. This week had a great showing by most, a mediocre presentation by a few, and a disappointing turn by some. Here are a few that stood out: Zegna Ermenegildo Zegna turned 100 this week. Let's just take a minute and bask in the glow of finer manhood. There aren't that many men's labels around that do what Zegna does with such precision. This brand is an endangered species and their collection this week in Milan speaks to my statement. This collection fit in great with the overall image of the brand. Cottons, linens, silks, and mohair collaborated to great result -- a consistent line. Slimly cut suits... more

Zegna Celebrates 100 Years in Fashion

Written by admin on June 22, 2010 – 6:47 pm -

One of men’s fashion's most storied brands, Ermenegildo Zegna, celebrated its 100th anniversary on Monday, June 21, with a swish and stylish double-header fashion show and a impressive retrospective exhibition in Milan.

Finding the Best Suits for You

Written by admin on April 16, 2010 – 11:41 pm -

A successful investment-banker in a sharp Italian suit, a lawyer about town in an elegant two-piece affair, a politician on television in a formal suit-and-tie: all these members of the male species depend on their suiting and style to gain them standing and instant respect in their public life. Wearing an impeccably tailored suit is already a statement of affluence and impeccable taste, while the cut and style speak volumes about the wearer even before a single word is spoken. The suit became commonplace in late 17th Century France. Louis XIV, the ultimate emperor of style led the charge towards a more casual and comfortable attire for men during his 72-year reign, shifting the style of male clothing from the doublet, hose, and cloak, the fundamentals... more
