55DSL’s Fall Winter ‘08 collection will showcase styles and designs derives from the hi-fidelity stereo equipment and twisted references to the late 80’s. Think audio casettes graphics and old LP covers. Try not to miss the colors of hot-red- turquoise and purple. I don’t think you could anyway. Click on the images for larger versions.

We always hear the phrase “Fashion is a cycle“. It may be 2008 but designers will take inspiration from a certain item on previous years, as the case here with 55DSL using the ’80s as an inspiration. I do like the silhouettes. And this is coming from a person who’d prefer it if guys don’t wear skinny jeans unless they’re a rock star. The tees and polo shirts are focal points in the looks. I’m not sure about the turquoise and purple jeans though. But I understand it’s supposed to be what’s the trend these days. I thought it was only for Women, 55DSL says it’s for Men as well.

Well, what do you think? Visit 55DSL for more.
