Camo, Distressed Denim and Dope Sneakers

On Wednesday, 2 March 2016, I attended the SpreeAutumn/Winter Collection Preview for 2016. The event was well attended and guests included celebrities, influencers and fashion journalists to name a few. It was great to see what Spree has to offer for the A/W2016 season. It was also cool to see that the ‘athleisure’ trend continues from Spring/Summer into Autumn/Winter!

For the event, I decided to stick to the ‘athleisure’ trend and wore:

• A Camoflauge Shirt by GAP;
• Distressed Demin by Topman; and
• Dope Sneakers by PUMA.

The Modern Man: First Impressions

Whether going to the office, or dressing up to go to an event it is vital for the ‘modern man’ to always look his best! The old saying, “You can’t judge a book by its cover” may be true, but you never know what thoughts people may have of you, until they get to know you! 

One of the best pieces of advice I've ever gotten was ‘wear great clothes. You never know whom you’ll meet!’ First impressions always count!

This season Fabiani brought us contemporary tailored garments and sportswear apparel in an ‘unconventionally edgy look’, fit for the modern gentleman of today.

Inspired by the Season’s Hottest Trends – Navy and Sports Luxe

As we enter the coldest month of the season, it is now time to wear the latest men’s fashion and tailoring trends. This week I have drawn inspiration from Fabiani’s A/W 2015 ‘Return to Form’ collection. For this season Fabiani brought us classic tailoring and Luxury Street wear. In putting together the outfit, I have continued the season’s key themes and color schemes, which is appropriate for a drink with friends and a stroll around the city.

This week I am wearing:

• Shirt – Fabiani
• Luxury joggers  (sweat pants) – Fabiani
• Jacket – Fabiani
• Sneakers – Armani Exchange

The outfit is warm, comfortable and easy to put together. These items are a must for any gentleman’s wardrobe.
