Fred Perry for Liberty - Blank Canvas - Spring/Summer 2010 Collection
Looking for the ultimate shirt to go side by side with the vivacious vacation season? Well… Look no further, for Fred Perry for Liberty’s collaborative Blank Canvas collection has arrived. Working its signature floral and paisley prints, which are respectively named “Edenham” and “Mark”; the collection of four pieces shows off the casual smart dress code in quintessential style. What I love the most is how it simply looks so uplifting in the eye. Like candy! Delicious, delightful and divine!

Bastiaan Ninaber, Vincent Lacrocq and Ryan Barrett in H&M
Is it just me? Or is this Fantastic Man editorial entitled Super Sartorial Summer proclaiming its love for affordable mens fashion in the most blatant way ever? The heroes of the editorial – Bastiaan Ninaber, Vincent Lacrocq and Ryan Barrett – are photographed by Benjamin Alexander Huseby in a sharp selection from the Swedish fashion chain H&M. Doing those strong manly poses of theirs in unison by the picturesque desert location overlooking the endless blue ocean, one cannot help but sense that this summer promises to be hot and cool at the same time.

Playing fashion. Slovenian model Marko Brozic enjoying his life in Prada.
Two of my favorite guys – Marko Brozic and Christopher Rayner – team up with soon-to-be-favourite-of-mine Nick R for this editorial from Fudge magazine’s May 2010 issue. Dressed in the season’s hottest buys from foreign high fashion labels as well as local talents by Stylist Marutani Naofumi, the boys look irresistibly cool chilling out in this picturesque courtyard. My ultimate favorite picture from this bunch of pictures by photographer Tokumaru Junichiro is no doubt Chris in the blindfold wearing a total look by Ann Demeulemeester. The composition of that picture from the pretty prickly epine black leather necklace to the obscured facial expression works flawlessly. This is definitely already listed as a favorite editorial of mine for the month.

Available in both black and brown, this fine piece goes remarkably well with virtually anything, weaving a web of wonderful looks that are truly overwhelming!

Ian O'Brien in Blackbarrett by Neil Barrett's Spring/Summer 2010 Ad Campaign
Shouldn’t I be thankful that I actually live in Hong Kong and not somewhere in the outback? I mean although I had surveyed every inch of the Seibu store in Ikebukuro when I was in Tokyo, somehow I missed BlackBarrett. Unbelievably stupid as it may sound, I should just be thankful that I am given a second chance, (which I may or may not deserve), as the ever-so-wonderful British designer Neil Barrett has expanded his horizons outside of Japan with his first BlackBarrett store in Central, Hong Kong.
For Spring/Summer 2010, Mr. Barrett works with the theme of “Boyhemian”. Playing with the idea of youth, freedom and peace, we saw an explosion of wicked colours in the amazing ad campaign. Paired with a relaxed loose fit, the idyllic atmosphere captured in this set of photographs is simply enticing to the eyes of the beholder. With his swinging long hair, British model Ian O’Brien possesses the ideal face and body language to exhibit the attitude of the season.

Sarar Spring/Summer Ready-to-wear 2010 Ad Campaign
For Spring/Summer 2010, Estonian model Carmen Kass teams up with the dandy Brit David Gandy for Sarar’s ad campaign. Amongst a sleek concrete backdrop, the handsome pair shows off the epitome of extreme elegance for the 62 year old Turkish fashion label. Known especially for the swell quality of their menswear, the Spring/Summer 2010 collection prides itself of its sharp tailored cuts that is smart, light and loveable. Along with an equally sophisticated womenswear collection, Sarar’s man and woman certainly is a heavenly match for each other.

Gut’s Dynamite Cabarets
Guests outside and at the venue of Gut’s Dynamite Cabarets’ show were greeted amiably with big bear hugs from a sweet pink bunny, who later turns out to be one half of the gutsy Japanese designer-duo. With that, one cannot help but think of the notably controversial photographer Terry Richardson, who dressed up similarly as a bunny in Whirlwind Heat’s video for the song Purple. It was, no doubt, this kind of cutting edge daringness made this show special and above all, the one to watch.

Mark Cox in Prada Spring/Summer 2010
To be perfectly honest with you all, this season, I am more in love with Prada’s menswear line than with its womenswear collection. A walk through the brightly-lit store space complete with racks and racks of spring/summer goodies, this feeling just intensifies even more so. If I could, I would have certainly done a grabsweep-and-run, regardless of whether the pieces actually flatter me or not. Well… Yes, sir, yes! I’m crazy! I’m crazy in love!

Danish model Adrian Bosch shows off Jil Sander Spring/Summer 2010 Collection in Milan
A walk into Jil Sander’s sleek minimalist store, we discovered an irresistible menswear collection that made us drool so bad that completely ruining the store’s all around pleasant ambience eventually became the ultimate most undeserved fate for the lovely luxury store.

Richard Nicoll's sunny resort 2010 collection
When I first spotted Richard Nicoll’s sunny resort collection at Harvey Nichols, the ultra cool beverage of Orange Mocha Frappucino, as drunk by the four fantastic male models in the movie Zoolander (2001), immediately popped straight out of my mind. I like the warm, fuzzy and uplifting character of the collection. It truly radiates this “you make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day” character. Presented in the picture above are:
