Once again GD.C must bring to your attention a brand that you should know. Remember that feeling you would get when watching Nightmare on Elm street or Friday the 13th. Well take that scary edge, mix it with Graphic element & some cool branding and you have “Actual Pain” mostly tops with a variety of selections this Brand is one you should definitely check out. Below are some of my Favorites. Cheers.

Backpacks are again in fashion and the selections are superb. Labels are putting out Backpacks left and right with a variety of styles. Since the Backpack is an item thats been used for so many years & for so many purposes the reference material for design is quite extensive. On my search I’ve found some Waxed finish fabrics, Functional Trim details that add purpose and style & also some design that fuses into some very forward product. Below are a variety of these selections. Cheers.

Fashion & Style are a way to express yourself, however becoming a victim of it hurts everyone. Below are some things that a grown man should Not do. Please pass it on… Cheers.

Suspenders are meant to hold your pants up & so are belts. Choose one or the other cause two at the same time makes no sense.

David Beckham is the man, But a cell phone is Not a hip accessory.

Unless you work at TGIF or Chilli’s don’t do it.

Collars worn outside of your jacket was pretty big in the 70’s & 80’s. Not so Hot right now. By a Tie.

Ankle is cool. Shin is overboard. Un cuff Bro… Please.

What better piece to get started with then the ever so classic “Jean Jacket”. Back in demand and never out of style. I remember Judd Nelson wearing one and layered to the Max in “The Breakfast Club” with an effortless cool look & I was hooked from then on. I personally have a beat up Abercrombie & Fitch piece that I wear with almost anything, But below are some other sharp selections. Cheers.

Take some Rock N Roll & some N.Y.C, throw in some Sexy, Sleek and Cool & you have John Varvatos. This collection and line  embodies all of the above. The color pallet has some Grey, Greens, Khaki & White along with an American flag scarf which makes for an eye catching accessory. Varvatos is truly one of America’s best designers. Cheers

The Michael Bastian Spring 2012 Collection is different time periods in classic Americana wear. It has some Rebel With Out A Cause some Martha’s Vineyard & it all works well together. I enjoyed this collection very much especially the way the ensembles were put together. From dress up to dressing down its all done with sophisticated simplicity. Cheers.

Bold, sleek and extremely well fitted. In a nut shell this best describes the spring 2012 collection from Simon Spurr. There are some Beautiful double breasted coats with mixed fabrics & also some quilted motorcycle style leathers that are killer. Spurr keeps it young yet classic so theres something for everyone. Cheers.

The next Spring 2012 highlight is Junya Watanabe. Theres so much to appreciate in this collection, start with the top and work yourself down.The mix of fabrics, Colors patterns & even introducing a silhouette I haven’t seen for some time into a collection with superb tailoring makes for an Amazing show.Not many people fancy wearing overalls, But I would throw these on in a heartbeat. Cheers.

New York just wrapped up Mercedes Benz Fashion Week & GD.C has chosen 5 favorites to highlight all in their own post. Starting off with Adam Kimmel. The color palette has a lot of blues and greys with some pop colors sprinkled here and there. I get an Urban/Surf feel from the group. The suits are tailored very well to fit and the simplicity of the whole collection is what I appreciate most.Cheers.
