Marni Menswear A/W11
Published on Thursday
Smart, graphic pieces with slouchy ethics attempt to take things out of their usual context with leather gloves and Borsalino trilbys

With a focus on sturdy fabrics, slouchy utilitarianism and laid-back layering, the Marni Man collection for Autumn/Winter 11/12 puts work elements out of context by creating a new balance. With their usual graphic tones, contrasting fabrics and a subtle use of prints, the pieces add new meaning to function and proportion.
From the sportswear pieces to more formal items, de-contextualization is their keyword this season where compact ¾ length wool coats sport leather sleeves and contrasting wool sleeves are attached to zip-up cotton shirt-jackets. The apparel is accessorised by brushed leather work shoes, round-toe lace-up derbies, felt and leather super-flat totes and cotton canvas bags whilst hats have been developed in collaboration with Borsalino.

When I saw this collection, I thought 'Raf simons'. As you see above this picture, this collection looks like preppy and dandy mens' look. Felt coat is very cute, dot pattern jacket is also cute, one jean is made by in front of jeans and back of cotton. Frankly I saw this collection at first time.
But I think and anticipate this collection will be very popular by my feeling as this collection's specificity.
