Hidden button down dress shirts (hidden plackets) are among my favorite. They always make for a much cleaner, neater, dapper look. I usually see the younger chicer gentlemen wearing these because the style is more modern (generally speaking). Hidden button down shirts not only give a more handsome/modern look, they can also have a slimming effect on most guys. The slimming effect stems from the lack of button tension sometimes seen on regular button downs, but more notably the hidden placket creates a slimming effect because it makes the eyes focus on the dark suit rather than the shirt and suit, creating a seamless, streamlined look. Be sure to add a few hidden button down shirts to your wardrobe.

Chace Crawford opted for slim shawl collar suit,
skinny tie, and pocket square. Very well done.

(custom tailored black tuxedo, dress shirt and shoes)

Everyone tended to keep it basic and black this year. Usually there are a number of guys who may opt for suits instead of tuxedos, maybe a few in grey/brown/navy suits, some who decide to wear black on black (black dress shirt and suit), and a few who choose to wear their tux with a bright colored tie... not this year. This year everyone wore a black tuxedo with a black tie, back to the basics I suppose.

Canali Fashion Show

"Classic Perfection"

Canali is for grown men, it's just one of those labels that makes you very official-- as far as being a well-dresses businessman goes anyway. And Canali's spring collection falls in line with their usual grown man swag, but with a fresh 50s/60s edge. This collection is full of suits that can be dressed up or down.

***

Spring 2011 Trends: So far the trends are pretty obvious... we're still paying tribute to the 1900s-- mainly 50s, 60s, 80s, and 90s. For all you guys that were never into the skinny stuff or are tired of the skinny stuff-- smile, menswear is making subtle switches to looser pants. But skinny-lovers don't fret, it's just to give you guys more variety. And last, but not least modified versions of espadrilles are seen through a number of designer collections, so if you don't have a pair you may want to scoop a pair of Toms now.

"Ode to Suburbia"

A direct ode to the casual lifestyle of 50s Americana suburbia-- polos, gingham, vintage safari/beach vacation prints. This is a great collection

Spring 2011 Men's Fashion Shows: A Few Favorites

Spring 2011 Men's Fashion Shows: A Few Favorites

So here's a quick run down on a few favorites from the Men's Spring 2011 shows...

Trussardi 1911.

Talk about a home-run hitter, Trussardi's collection is the most comprehensive I've viewed thus far. They mix the best trends with forwarding-thinking luxury fashion, while mixing in retro American style the whole way.

The collection has something for every type of guy: the traditionalist, the prep, the rocker, the 'whatever category you put may find yourself in', there's atleast a couple pieces in Trussardi's spring collection that's for you.

The collection transforms from slick retro red, black, and white to updated 90s American prep, gotta love it. The prints? Native-American. check. Stripes. check. Plaid. check. And get this-- Trussardi even gives us a "hint of fatigue", lol. Is Milan Vukmirovic in my head... I think he is. (He's Trussardi's creative director, btw). But more than anything, Trussardi's Spring 2011 collection gives us proper elegant summer layers-- shawl sweaters, a variety of jackets, swanky footwear, and bags (that don't look like purses).
