Smalto Fall 2010 Men’s

Targeting a younger clientele, designer Youn Chong Bak fuses the traditional Smalto man with a man more rough around the edges. Yet, still manages to maintain the ‘timelessness-luxe’ sense of appeal that we have all come to expect from the house.

In stark contrast from the Smalto man that we saw back in Fall 2008, this season a more fitted silhouette is seen. Trousers tucked into boots and loosened collars appearing from time to time, the styling can be easily described as something that would interest your modern intellectual, that secretly also has quite a daring side.

As jackets appeared traditional for the most part, at points a saddle stitch appeared on jackets in places that you would normally not find it. One of the collections many little details that overall contributed to the bigger picture. One of my personal favorites being, the braided leather scarves that flared out into a fringe at it’s bottom, usually accentuated with a bare and open collar.

Focusing largely on softness, fur can be now be found lining both hats and jackets. Whilst gloves come in lambskin and leather is thinned to give off a softened texture.

Detailing much appreciated for what would be a perfect winter.

    I love the way the scarves are wraped. Sounds odd, but there’s so much variety!!

    I always find it hard to fully appreciate collections like this without being there. I wish there was a bit more dare in it. I liked their last fall collection better.
