Peter Jensen Jumper

15 September 2011, 17.45 | Posted in Fashion | No comments »

Selectism - peter-jensen-jumper-01

We’ve always liked Peter Jensen’s menswear, seeing it as much closer to casual streetwear than crazy fashion. Take this jumper for example, it’s perfectly wearable, especially if you’re not still weird about wearing pink. If you are, just call it washed red. Or salmon, if you’re old school about your pink phobia. (Farfetch)

Sasquatchfabrix and The Inoue Brothers collaboration

15 September 2011, 15.30 | Posted in Fashion | 1 comment »

Selectism - inoue-brothers-sasquatchfabrix-collab-01

The Inoue Brothers (who we’ve done a feature on) have teamed with another brand we like, Sasquatchfabrix, to create this capsule collection of knitwear. As you can see, it’s a collaboration in the purest sense of two companies bringing what they do best and merging it. Not just the lazy old ’slap your fabric on top of my existing design and call it a collab’ nonsense we see every other day.

The collection itself is a couple of jumpers, a cardigan and some scarves – all mixing in Inoue’s knowledge of knitwear and the design touches we like from Sasquatchfabrix. Take a look for yourself after the leap. (LN-CC)

Remade in Switzerland Cocoon Blouson

Selectism - remade-in-switzerland-blouson-01

As Kanye didn’t say, ‘That ish Rae. burn’. We’ve featured a couple of Raeburn summer jackets before but this is the first time we’ve seen Raeburn’s Victorinox collaboration in stores. First off, what we like about this coat: the way it looks. WHat we don’t like: the price. It’s that simple. There’s more details than you can shake a detail stick at – they exist, don’t ask us where to find them – but at nearly a grand, we don’t blame anyone if it’s outside of their pay bracket. (Oki-Ni)

Ami Slim Fit Wool Trousers

Selectism - ami-wool-trousers

You’ve probably heard about Ami, they’re the new French brand that’s trying to out-APC APC. There’s been accusations that APC have been slipping lately, so it is the best time to Marlo Stansfield your way into the game – especially if you’re also French and can give an interview without sounding pissed off at the world. It also helps if you can do a good staple, something Ami do very well. (Mr Porter)

Martine Rose Bengal Striped Shirt

13 September 2011, 18.30 | Posted in Fashion | No comments »

Selectism - martine-rose-striped-shirt-01

We never tire of bringing this up but back when we first posted Martine Rose here we were accused of jumping the shark. Of course, those were dark days – everyone was talking about how the 60s were the golden era of clothing and how anyone who wore anything other than oxford shirts were terrorists. The last point may have been made up, but you get our gist – that we’ve always liked Martine Rose’s shirts and this is no different. And despite what you’ve read from your latest conservative blogger you can wear this shirt just as much as a navy sportcoat. (Daniel Jenkins)

Selectism - patrik-ervell-spring-2012-01

We know, we know, you’re tired of New York Fashion Week already. But bear with us while we showcase one last collection for the day. The big news in this collection is that he’s expanded womenswear after showing off a few looks last season. Elsewhere there’s hawaiian influenced shirts and jackets, suiting and the usual collection of outerwear we’re dying to get our hands on. Take a look for yourself after the leap. (Style)

Grenfell Duffle Coat

12 September 2011, 21.30 | Posted in Fashion | No comments »

Selectism - grenfell-duffle-coat-01

Sometimes heritage brands fall through the cracks – Grenfell is one such brand. At one time it was spoken of in the same breath as Barbour but it eventually went under. It was eventually revived by a Japanese company who now sell it in Japan. So, in a nutshell, that’s why this jacket is only available in Japan. Happy proxying! (Museum Arks)

General Idea Menswear Spring/Summer 2012 Collection

General Idea Menswear Spring/Summer 2012 Collection

From New York Fashion Week we present the upcoming General Idea Spring/Summer 2012 Collection. The brand continues in its own footsteps, presenting a great range of sportswear that is mostly easy to wear, yet always features some great details. Color once again plays an important role. We like the orange and turquoise in the upcoming collection, but also the more toned down khaki and black and navy checker pieces. Look at the pieces individually and you will find some great every day outerwear and knitwear to accent your outfits.

Individualized Band Collar Oxford

Selectism - individualized-band-collar-shirt-01

Can you pull this off? We ask because it’s incredibly difficult to wear items of clothing sometimes, especially when they’re slightly different to what you’re already wearing. So just how do you pull off an item that’s difficult to pull off? We recommend putting it on, putting on other clothes and then wearing it for the day. You can’t say we don’t give stellar advice.
