The message at Clare Waight Keller’s Spring 2011 presentation for Pringle of Scotland was a rough around the edges take on the classic and clean wardrobe.

Mostly consisting of neutrals with pops of different shades of blues, ranging from deep blues on the first and last pieces of the collection and a few more pieces sprinkled throughout, to the more brilliant blue shown on the jacket rapped around one models waist to a few knit pieces. Even a subdued light blue used in a couple looks, mostly on the pants.

The neutral part of the collection included a beige button down and trouser combination with a slight military influence among others. From cozy cardigans to the destroyed black and white sweater and even on some transparent pieces, the knit pieces were the standout looks of the collection, and also where the more rugged aspect of the show came in.

After heading to the 50s with his last menswear collection, for Spring 2011, Tomas Maier brings his latest Bottega Veneta man back to present day, leaving the eccentric hair swoops a thing of the past.

Introducing the, now signature, Bottega Veneta color palette of plumes, greens and deep reds, to naturals and even a patchwork, Maier gives the axe to the cuffed denim styles of Fall 2010, now dressing a man still casual, but instead opting for more freeing fits and comforting fabrics.

Starting off with more delicate colors and then moving towards darker hues, all of which still in delicate and light fabrics, all facets of a man’s life were targeted. From the rainy yet warm days, covered with the showing of a relaxed trench worn over a transparent top, finished off with black sandals, to casual days, strolling the city with a woven leather bag slung across his chest.

last season introducing us to the inventive idea of showcasing a collection in the heart, and streets, of where a house’s DNA rests, the Missoni man once again takes to sidewalks of Milan. Later, transitioning into the life of an afternoon garden party.

Considerably a bit more youthful than the Missoni man of previous seasons, Angela Missoni continues to usher in the next generation of Missoni clientele. Binding quality together with a carefree and endearing attitude, skrunken mixed-patterned knit sweaters and contrast placket cardigans are paired over rounded plaid button-downs that feature black piping.

Wearing multicolored boating shoes and patterned socks unlike any pattern up worn above, the essence of comfort and protection from the elements plays a bigger role in the life of the man, ready for voyage and exploration. As his trousers billow, with enough ease to match his easygoing sense of self, modern and classic intertwine to create something natural yet eye catching.
