Selectism - Want-Les-Essentiels-Spring-2012-01

We’re having a bag day here, so here’s Want Les Essentiels offering at Pitti. They’ve got a new organic line and a case for the Blackberry playbook. And, because you’re be sure to ask this when you take a leap, all those iPads are dummy cases. We also had a quick chat with Dexter Peart, which you can read if you click that button.

Cohetes Candleholders

Selectism - cohetes-01-curatedmag

We like respite. And during the tradeshow/fashion week flood, our respite comes in the form of candleholders. Behold:

“Mexican designer Moises Hernandez honors the ubiquitous handmade firework in his ceramic candleholders. Taking inspiration from cohetes, the candleholders burst with color and shares the geometric shapes of their namesake object. Pop a white candle in for full effect.”

Haider Ackermann Suede Jacket

Selectism - haider-ackermann-suede-jacket-01

We’ve come to a conclusion at SL – we need sugar parents. Not a sugar daddy or a sugar momma, but sugar parents. One parental sugar couldn’t afford all these goods we desire, so they should form like Voltron and take us on weekly shopping trips. First up? this jacket right here. Yeah, it’s not exactly in season, but it’s handsome enough for us to risk heat stroke wearing it. (Farfetch)

Burberry Prorsum Spring/Summer 2012 Men's Collection

Burberry is always up for surprise, especially when it comes to their Prorsum range. Today we take a first look at their upcoming Spring/Summer 2012 Collection.

Taking a distinct 60s direction in the design approach, the collection features lots of oversized work wear trench coats, oversized double breasted heritage trench coats, fishtail and storm parkas and a special range of knitwear. Patterns are not only placed on jackets and knitwear, but also on shirts and even the eye catching range of cork soled moccasins. Hand crafted natural wood toggles, weathered metal buttons and natural horn buttons make an appearance as well, only adding to the detailed range presented for next season. The color range is also very special, and is in line with the 60s look and inspiration.

Check out the Burberry Prorsum Spring/Summer 2012 Collection after the jump.

Prada Spring/Summer 2012 Men's Collection

From the runway in Milan we report about the new Prada Spring/Summer 2012 Men’s Collection. As usual the Italian brand, which recently made the news heavily for going public on the Hong Kong stock market, is not shy of color and presents a very interesting new collection.

Patterns also continue to play an important role, with many pieces featuring heavy all-over designs. The golf theme is also present in all looks of the collection, reflected not only by the shoes and hats, but also the accessories of the line.

Take a further look at the new Prada Spring/Summer 2012 Collection after the jump.
