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!

Nils Lawton in Alexander McQueen Fall/Winter 2010/11
Reading Russian writer Alexander Pushkin’s historical novel The Captain’s Daughter, we found a folk song, which painfully introduces us to the reality of life discussed in today’s post. It goes:
“If you find one better than me, you will forget me;
if you find one worse than me, you will remember me.” [link]

German model Luca Gadjus is the mesmerising mermaidic beauty in Escada Sport Ad Campaign Spring/Summer 2010
Escada Sport’s compelling spring/summer campaign 2010 puts the charming collection, inspired by the wondrous waters, in an utterly irresistible position. Photographed by the magnificent Max von Gumppenberg, German model Luca Gadjus is the mesmerising siren from the depth of the sea singing her entrancing melodies through her hypnotic eyes to lure us into a shopping spree at the luxury fashion house. Well… Is there a reason not to? The collection, which focuses on fantastic colours and prints and an incredibly soft silhouette, is simply divine for cruise 2010 with its lavish yet remarkably relaxed look. Truly enchanting!

Marlena Szoka, Maria Kashleva and Suzie Bird in Alexis Mabille Haute Couture 2010
Alexis Mabille’s Spring/Summer Haute Couture show 2010 is certainly something that I did not expect to see at first glance. No frills. No pretty bows. No lace. The show opened with Belarusian model Olga Sherer dressed in the French designer’s bi-colour pant suit look. As oppose to what the Lyon-born designer had been doing famously, this is certainly something new and fresh.

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.

Adrian Bosch, Nikola Jovanovic and Jakob Wiechmann in Dries Van Noten
The first thing that caught my critical eye for coolness from Dries van Noten’s Fall/Winter 2010/11 runway show for men was… Adrian Bosch the charming camel trench coat with the fudge boning as worn by Danish model Adrian Bosch (see picture above). I love the boning, as it creates a youthful vibe, as if those clean lines were drawn on playfully, while giving it a sleek structure, which I adore so much.

Lenz von Johnston, Clement Chabernaud and Danny Schwarz in Versace Uomo Spring Summer Ready-to-wear 2010
I just love Versace’s show, because it’s not for every man. It’s for hot man only! For Spring/Summer 2010, Donatella Versace presented a light collection that is sleek, sophisticated and so so so super sexy. The colours used range from crisp white, camel, peachy nudes, grey then finally, black. This gradual transition of colours perfectly mirrors a man’s wardrobe from day to night during the spring summer season – light colours for day and black for the evening time. The essence of the collection for me is in the precision in tailoring and a conspicuous confidence – drowned in the luxurious Italian fashion label’s distinctive lavish style from head to toe. Shown by a parade of muscular models - complete with delicious 6-packs - catwalking along to the cool beats of The Rakes’ 22 Grand Job and The Maccabes’ X-ray vision, the runway presentation was an infectious affair that gets me catwalking out of the venue wishing that I have Lenz in my arms.

Adrian Bosch, Nikola Jovanovic and Matvey Lykov in Dries Van Noten Spring Summer 2010 Collection
Is Dries Van Noten men and Dries Van Noten women one of the most matching couples in fashion history ever? Just like the Belgian designer’s womens collection, which we have just seen yesterday, South East Asia is the source of inspiration for menswear as well – creating an easy and non-chalant collection that is smart yet casual and refined yet never over the top.
