ETRO MILAN MENSWEAR SS11 SHOW
ETRO MILAN MENSWEAR SS11 SHOW
Kean Etro’s tree of life is the date palm that gave the inspiration for paisley designs, the very DNA on which the Etro brand is built.
Spring Summer 11 is no exception, strong in terms of design, colour and structure the actual pieces are extremely lightweight. Kean’s wardrobe is composed of ‘leaves, clouds and light’. Almost weightless jackets, georgette shirts with delicate paisley print in the palest pastels.
Ultra light organic cotton polos, elegant shantung silk jackets with tone on tone bark print. Accessories include oversized totes in the softest hides, contrast sneakers and cut off ties. If a paisley ensemble is too much to start with there is a luxurious aray of printed, jacquard and embroidered scvarves and handkerchiefs in a flux of paisley, flowers and fruits to plant the seed….........
This summer menswear collection will be available from Etro, 14 Old Bond Street, Mayfair, London W1S 4PS; 020 7495 5767

SALVATORE FERRAGAMO MILAN MENSWEAR SPRING/ SUMMER 2011 SHOW
On a not so sunny lunchtime in Milan, the Salvatore Ferragamo mens s/s2011 show took us to the French Riviera and reminded us of a warm afternoon in an avant garde film.
Influences of Cocteau and Picasso and a holiday feeling of free spirit were seen as the models strode down the mirrored catwalk with projections of a blue cloudy sky hitting the ceiling and floor!! A palette of white and cream contrasted with navy blue stripes and elegant stripes. Silks and luxurious rich fabrics appeared on wide pyjama trousers and fitted blazers.

PRINGLE OF SCOTLAND
VENUE:
(Mostly) Scottish rockers Franz Ferdinand will be performing their new single live at an exclusive acoustic set as a part of the Pringle of Scotland SS11 menswear presentation! It doesn’t stop there either folks, as Pringle has been given the prestigious Galleria Carla Soazzani to showcase the new collection. Here at Modus Towers we didn’t think it could get better… It did. The ‘boys’ are going to also unveil the fruits of their collaborative efforts, as they have designed their very own Pringle of Scotland argyle print knit as part of the ‘195’ project with the Serpentine Gallery. Happy 195th Birthday Pringle – what a way to celebrate!
PRESS RELEASE:
PRINGLE OF SCOTLAND LAUNCHES THE SPRING / SUMMER 2011
MENSWEAR COLLECTION WITH AN ACOUSTIC SET BY
SCOTTISH BAND FRANZ FERDINAND AT GALLERIA CARLA SOZZANI MILAN
Milan, June 2010 - Pringle of Scotland is the iconic brand founded in 1815 at the birthplace of the Scottish knitwear industry. From the beginning, technical innovation has lead to the introduction of knitwear as outerwear, the creation of the classic twinset and the signature argyle pattern.
The SS11 menswear collection returns with a unique showcase at galleria CARLA sozzani and marks another important step in reaffirming Pringle of Scotland’s’ position as a global luxury brand. The main concept of the collection takes the simple theme of creating a comp lete look made from only one fabrication to form a strong statement – an interpretation across product categories.
Clare Waight Keller comments “This season was really about looking into the classic fabrications of a man’s wardrobe and giving them a new context. The idea of total look but in an informal way was something that I explored in depth, and has resulted in fabrics being used across every element. A shirt is worn under a sweater made of the shirting worn under a trench made of a waxed shirting, the translation of the fabric making the familiar completely fresh and surprising.”
The colour palette, inspired by both Derek Jarman’s film ‘Blue’ and the classic men’s ‘denim’ is the prominent colour story. Complimentary neutral palette of stones, melange greys and whites complete the story.
Throughout, denim is reinterpreted and referenced in its various forms and guises. Waxing on outerwear is another key story - Traditional fabrications, not usually associated with outerwear, are taken and waxed to create super light rainproof outerwear pieces.
New knitted techniques are incorporated into the collection with an intarsia argyle in melange silk and represented in tonal faded blues. The ladder mesh seen in the womenswear AW 10 collection is developed albeit with a masculine interpretation. The iconic twinset is reinforced and is echoed with the concept of underpinning matched with a knitted over piece in the same fabric.
