Key Items: Apparel
Fluid shapes and fabrics play a crucial role in creating elegant and dramatic formal looks for men. Velvet, satin, moleskin, and luxurious wools are complemented by delicate lace and sheer materials like chiffon. The emphasis is on fluidity even in tailoring fabrics, steering away from stiff and rigid options. The context of these fabrics is modernized with an androgynous touch, yet remains familiar and accessible to men's wardrobes. The key is to combine extravagant details with simple shapes to achieve a sophisticated and refined aesthetic.
