Lavish Classics from the Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 2014 Collection

Kim Jones, in his role as creative director for Louis Vuitton's menswear, is one of the few designers who constantly delivers relevant, desirable and extremely wearable luxury pieces season after season. If I ever had to choose a single brand to wear for the rest of my life, LV would definitely be at least in my top 3.
For the 2014 Pre-Fall Collection Jones has concentrated on rich colours – most notably deep blues and maroons – and luxury fabrics. These two are applied on wardrobe staples such as the anorak, the bomber jacket or the hunting jacket. Outwear especially stands out with a variety of styles that could easily have you sorted for at least 3 our of the 4 seasons.
I also favour the slim silhouettes, which give the looks an effortless masculine feel and get away from some of the extreme skinny or baggy fits some designers insist on proposing.

Clothes I Want to Wear: Looks from my Favourite PFW SS14 Collections (I)

With the SS14 menswear collections now finished I can honestly says this has been one of the best seasons of the last few years. Streamlined is probably the word which describes the most part of the proposals of the designers from London, Milan and Paris. A certain simplicity and understated elegance make room for lines and silhouettes to become protagonists. The colour palette includes a great range of hues – interesting but also understated, as were the many prints we saw everywhere. These are some of my favourite looks from my favourite collections shown in Paris. Part II is coming up later today.
