Menswear Catwalk Trends F/W 08.09

hmm... so everybody has "pile" in their collections
those furry things
reminiscent of rugs
and Prada's fall collection last year

i also noticed a weird thing they do with the dye
evolution of ombre i suppose
except no fading this time,
just a stark line between the two tones

I saw it @ D&G and Versace...

^If you're talking about the pants in that picture, I think it's just the lighting. Both shows used spotlights, didn't they?

I can say...lack of color.

Everything seems so gray.

you must be right
i guess the spotlights keep moving then
because only some of the outfits have this lighting

anyway, new thread here
the hairy things MENS F/W 08.09

it's pretty obvious this is a recurring theme, i'd say

Noticed this at both Lanvin & Ann Demeulemeester...either as prints or accessories they can soften a masculine outfit and give it a romantic, artistic vibe.

Jefferson Hack in the telegraph:
Flower Pins by Louis Vuitton
Go on the style offensive with these Art Nouveau-inspired pins, which come with five miniature flower heads or one larger one. Use them for ties, lapels or to add new life to a well-loved hat

this reminds of The Devil Wears Prada...

"Flowers for spring......ground-breaking.." lol. but nice catch!

[stylites]

So what do we say about the slightly flared pants on YSL and Burberry Prorsum runways? Are flares going to make a comeback? Most men seem to hate them.

[mcnuwave]

the YSL pants are AMAZING! Like i've sed before, i'm a skinny-pants wearer at heart and and for now always will, but i really want a pair like those in that collection.

I would never EVER wear flare denim, but the flared wide legged look in the YSL collection was flawless!

EDIT: But i don't know how it'll go well with my wardrobe, i'm such a dress down person.

[gandrasta]

umm.. still on doubt

[gandrasta]

furs?... they look like dumbledore

[Maried]

That last picture from Ann D is gorgeous! I so want my boyfriend to dress like that!

[Street_a_Licious]

[Street_a_Licious]

^The original menswear catwalk trends f/w 08.09 pinned thread was used too for the F/W 08.09 one.. which brought you (and many others, including mods) to your first question, so we pulled them apart and kept new discussion in the new thread where the new season belongs.. sorry if your post looks out of place now, I guess I didn't think I'd have to remove it. but I probably will now to respect your own.. image.

[TheVeed]

so... is that it for F/W 08 09 trends?
