London Collections: Mens

As you may all well know, Women's fashion week has been and gone on this side of the pond. And although I am always excited to see the new season collections for womenswear. This year most of my interest was and still is in London Collections. The first of it's own, this June past men's fashion in London took centre stage. Traditionally the men's shows have always been confided to one day at the end of women's fashion week and lacked the praise / attention / appreciation that it deserves.

However this June all that changed, launched by Prince Charles himself and headed by Dylan Jones (GQ) London Collections: Mens was introduced. A three day event filled with SS13 presentations, catwalk shows and some of the most stylish men I have ever seen! It was so much of a pleasure to be involved though I didn't get to see any shows because of it,  I do however have access to style.com so here are my favourite highlights!

Great Gatsby

It was exactly a year ago when I posted about "The Season Of Gentry" on the 21st of this month and sure enough yesterday (The 22nd) the trailer for the movie "The Great Gatsby" was released.  I have already created a montage of my favourite looks which I have embedded above, can you feel the excitement?

I have watched it six times in counting and I am even more super anxious for Autumn / Winter '12 to arrive  now that it has got me out of my blogging hibernation! Now I know Summer only arrived today in the UK so before you start making blasphemous comments keep your cap on and hear me out! 

I'm not only excited about the release of the film, I am also excited because of the beautiful menswear pieces that will be re-discovered and appreciated once again. One brand in particular that I hope will make it's mark come A/W "12  is Marwood headed by the beautiful Becky French. Her tie's, bow- ties, scarves and pocket squares are beautifully crafted and all produced in England (which very rare nowadays), all round I think she is a genius there is no doubt about that. However I maybe biased, so I have included images of some of  her SS '12  and "Classic Lace"collection  below so you can decide for yourself. Also check out her blog it's definitely one of my favourites http://marwooduk.blogspot.co.uk/ - The Gatsby trailer is after the break.
