For summer, our clothing and accessories lines are naturally moving to thinner materials allowing you to breathe and keep your cool, allowing you to enjoy to long light evenings and take it easy during the heat of the day. We’ve selected our top recommendations for the 2007 sun season.
Summer Beach Look
Gym Dandy is a perfect example of materials made for sports in designs which incorporate loud slogans in square fonts, bold block colours and striped patterns to create an essential summer look. Collared t-shirts and chino shorts are ideal and accessorise with a vintage pair of running trainers and the right bag, a cylindrical retro duffle bag is the perfect accompaniment.
Late Party Clothes
For the evening the image is Seventies Svelte ideal uses light coloured cardigans, skinny ties, and summer blazers. Large playboy style sunglasses contribute to the look and match pocket squares with the blazers and cotton cravats with the shirts and a pair of daring coloured loafers to finish off the outfit.
Men’s Holiday Jewellery
One other style uses Eco-Echoes to create an environmentally conscientious look with linen and beaded lucky-charm jewellery featuring heavily. The socks and sandals combination is big this summer and loose fitting ethnic cotton shirts with deep v-necks are complementary. Hit the festivals and choose organic with this style.
Summer ‘07 Menswear Accessories
As far as accessories are concerned, plastic-rimmed or leather-edged aviators are a strong look this year, as are any shades with unusual coloured tints. The Wayfarer styles with chunkier plastic rims and wide front with silver or gold details are also making it big. Watches to match any of the looks above this year hark back to classic styles with analogue faces. The round dials without fussy chronograph complications use gold, crèmes and brown leather straps for the extra panache. Summer scarves are making a big impact and using the right thin sheer scarf worn in the Western style is a great adornment.
As with every summer, make use of bolder colours, style some intricate patterns and just experiment more.
