The fashion world swaps Italy for Paris this week, and team
GQ will be on-hand to pick out everything you need to know
about the shows and what we'll all be wearing next season.
Just before haute couture hits our (computer) screens next week the
male species have been enjoying their own nod to autumn 2012
trends with Milan and Paris fashion week, which was prompted by the
start of Milan Men’s Fashion Week last weekend.
Designers to have already shown in Milan ranged from the fabulous
Burberry Prorsum to quirky Prada; which boasted an array of celebrity
models that included Gary Oldman, Jamie Bell and William Dafoe amongst
others.
Now these chiselled Adonis’ (the models) have moved to Paris where
they have already walked for Jean Paul Gaultier, Louis Vuitton and
Balmain to name a few and will be bringing the catwalk’s to a close
later today with Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Givenchy and John
Galliano.
Gaultier of course gave the crowed a spectacular event as always
adorning his models with dreadlocks, dapper goatees and fiery red hair
whilst being draped in a selection of textured knitwear, brick prints
and precise tailoring. At Louis Vuitton menswear was inspired by 1970s
Paris and illustrator Antonio Lopez as creative director Kim Jones
produced a Japanese style collection with kimono silk pieces, velvet and
a dash of retro shearling.
