Oh, Jesus. This is NOT going to gain us one ounce of sympathy from any woman with a pulse, but man, those models are YOUNG, aren’t they? We’ll give you ladies a moment to wipe the tears of laughter away. We love this high-energy collection. It has a back-to-school theme, which...

LOVELOVELOVE IT. It’s fun, it’s unapologetic, it’s Versace all the way. Sexy, flamboyant and still very masculine; sort of an ode to to the good old days of Gianni. Because if everyone was tasteful and low-key, how boring would the world be, darlings? Let’s hear it for...

What’s with the sinister feel running through so many of the menswear collections this season? And what’s with the tendency to liken masculinity to serial killers? Creepy. It’s like everyone’s collectively working out some issues at the same time. Still, while this...

This is the kind of collection where, if it had been womenswear, half the people who saw it would come away convinced that the designer is a misogynist. Don’t look to us for an explanation. We get that Thom Browne made his name by questioning modern menswear proportions and we get that...

There’s a sort of “dandy Sherlock Holmes meets ’60s mod schoolboy” feel to this collection, which means it couldn’t possibly be any more British even if they were all sipping tea as “God Save the Queen” played while they walked the runway. Lorenzo is...

It’s kind of hard to make the basic suit look interesting in this day and age, but Bottega Veneta managed it with this collection. We’re totally digging the color-blocking here. Although the rise on those pants are so low, we think we’ll probably stick just to the suit...

There’s an almost cartoonishly masculine feeling to the Fall menswear shows; more so than usual. Certainly it seems the waifish little dandy look is not what’s on everyone’s minds at the moment. We’re seeing more authoritarian-tinged looks throughout the collections;...

Is it gimmicky to have a bunch of internationally famous actors walk in your runway show? Maybe. But so what? It’s fun. And most of the actors chosen to walk the runway for the Prada Fall 2012 Menswear show have the bearing of models, if not necessarily the looks. The theme was...

Just so you know, Lorenzo damn near wept when he saw the above suit. Darlings, here’s your pretty for the day – and we don’t mean the young men walking the runway. We mean the Simon Spurr spring 2012 collection, a gorgeous set of sleek and chic menswear looks with an English...

Thank God for the menswear shows. We will always be the type of queen who can wax rhapsodic about a dramatic gown stomping down a runway, but sometimes, a boy just needs to look at cute boys in boy clothes. Especially if a boy (or boys) covets practically every piece those cute boys are...

The very first show of our Fashion Week, the DKNY Mens collection, couldn’t have been a better way to kick things off: cute boys in covetable clothes, all lined up on the second floor of the NASDAQ Marketsite Building, with Times Square bustling below and behind them. The setting...

It’s time to weigh in on yet another pressing fashion issue, you guys. Namely, mantoes: should the world be shielded from exposure to these highly contentious body parts or not? Consider: Versace Of course, this also opens up the floor to discussing the socks question as well....

Designer Christopher Bailey says he wants to “celebrate the idea of craftsmanship” with this collection, which is loaded with rich sumptuous colors in tribal patterns and ikat prints, with beaded collars and crocheted trim, giving the whole endeavor a multi-cultural, heavily...

Well isn’t this fun. For this collection, Versace took a look back at the good old days of Miami Vice and the house’s ever-present Greek key motif and baroque prints. But it’s not literal enough to be a strict redux attempt; this is more like Miami Vice by way of Jersey...

Canadian twins Dean and Dan Caten, the dynamic designing duo behind Dsquared2, describe their spring 2012 menswear collection as “Sartorial-minded sportswear for guys who aren’t afraid of color” and describe each outfit in terms of what port of call this well-traveled,...

Domenico and Stefano took one look around them at the candy-colored menswear dominating the season and loudly declared “NO.” Eschewing the bright colors that everyone else seems to be embracing, they offered up a collection of crisp, masculine looks rendered in very muted tones of burgundy,...

The closing word for today is MEN, darlings. And it’s a word that Dirk Bikkembergs clearly loves. Like all of his collections, this one offers a bright, sexy, cartoonish version of masculinity; skin tight (and skin-baring) clothes in either stark blacks and whites or brilliant...

David Neville and Marcus Wainwright of Rag & Bone turned to Edward, Duke of Windsor to inspire their menswear collection and the result is a tweedy, plaidy, array of old school gentlemen’s clothing. And in the best gentleman’s tradition, the clothes are rich and woven with...

You wouldn’t sit down to view a Calvin Klein menswear collection expecting to have a conversation about pushing the boundaries of a male silhouette, but here we are. Designer Italo Zucchelli says the collection evolved around the idea of protection, and there’s something very...

We’re not sure what was more exciting: watching a dozen perfect specimens of male modelhood walking the runway in long johns, or the fact that the official Perry Ellis twitter was responding to us while we were tweeting the show. Either way, it was a thrilling experience and a quietly,...

Last season he sent them to space, this time Thom Browne invited men everywhere to dinner in an Eighteenth Century setting, drawing inspiration from Thomas Jefferson’s fabled trip to Paris. It seems like the menswear collections are the ones really pushing the fashion envelope these...
