Frankie Morello 2009 Spring/Summer Collection starts off with none other than underwear. Well of course. You can’t have a Menswear without creating an underwear line as well.

You know what I like about the Frankie Morello 2009 Spring/Summer Collection? It’s fun, sporty, active and befitting a Srping and Summer weather. Know what I mean? The clothes are on the edgy side for a casual wear but I appreciated the shorts. Men wear shorts during the Summer. I like it when Fashion designers actually sit down and think about the reality of how the “street fashion” works. I wish more and more designers would actually consider the concept of real living when they start conceptualizing their lines. Although Frankie Morello’s interpretaiton of that is a little extreme, at least he tried .

So how do I summarize the Dirk Bikkembergs 2009 Spring/Summer Collection? Well, it’s oozing with Manliness. I don’t know if it’s the fit of the clothes on the models or the obvious fact that the models are muscular. *clears throat* . The colors are earthy though. It almost looks like a Fall collection. Well, except for a few purples and bright green. I must give props to all the Man-Bags.

New York Fashion Week : Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2008 Collection

I’m so disappointed with Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2008 Collection. I can’t get passed the length of pants. Why are the socks showing? And what is the point of overlapping shirt underneath the blazers/jackets? You’ll see what I mean when you see the whole Marc Jacobs Fall collection by clicking the link…

Seriously now? Hmmmph!

Giorgio Armani 2008 Fall Collection

If you look at the Giorgio Armani Fall 2008 Collection you’d see a “Regal” approach which he aptly used the word for. Witness the velvets, hats, high-collared shirts, 3-piece suits, and the uncanny influence of Cary Grant in the modern-era.

Armani Spring/Summer 2008 Men’s Wear Milan Fashion Week

Dexie Wharton — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 12:51:16 +0000

For Armani, 2008 Spring and Summer look also showcased solid colors along the lines of grey, black, white and pale earthy tones. With a little bit of patterns added into Armani’s vast line of suits. I guess Men are supposed to look dashing in 2008 Spring/Summer season by wearing suits, and pants.

Armani’s 2008 Men’s collection also featured huge bags, belts, lace up shoes for formal and casual wear AND the choices of high or low top shoewear.

Oh and the hint of skin

Now if you’re opting for color hues like yellow, blue, peach, green, etc. to spice up your 2008 Spring and Summer wardrobe, you would definitely appreciate the mixtures of colors from Missoni. They unveiled their 2008 collection at the Milan Fashion Week with their famous ready-to-wear knitwear showcasing their trademark patterns and stripes on the wide variety of fabrics. Even more visible in their Spring/Summer line are the bold accessories like the chunky necklaces, hats and bags.

Take a look for yourself…….

Now please forgive me for imagining all these playful colors incorporated in my own wardrobe filled with dresses, blouses, tops, shoes and bags . Fashion is inspirational and very much relative, you see .
