I am back! To posit completely useless meanderings on what fashion means to me (on a month to month basis). Exams are finished for the time being and so we can all reconvene on an assault of the senses which brothers film and fashion so ably provide.
Thats a welcoming opener right? I'm a sucker for speeches.
I thought for this month i'd start with two fashionistas for whom the overwhelming theme is confidence. Plain and simple. Both carry an insouciant nonchalence which elevates their fashion and projection of themselves to a degree of cool which wears as easy as the white flats on the soles of the lady's feet. It's an almost understated youthful elegance which comes from blending classic shades to form a coherent, sexy and quasi-formal look.
Where do you start with the man! From the woody green tie pin clashing with the navy-checkered print to the over-sized plastics. Personally its the slanted pockets accentuated by the bumblebee yellow which had me at hello. Sometimes these combinations can be tumultuous and scream ''OVER-COMPENSATION'' but here its carried off in an easy, unmeticulous manner which many aim for but rarely achieve.
Ultimately, the Fiorentini have a inpregnable confidence to mix and match and splash and splosh.
We could all take note.
Many Thanks to Scott Schuman (thesartorialist.blogspot.com)
