The soft whites and grays at John Varvatos' Spring/Summer
2015 presentation were refreshing and alluring. The historical cuts on those
gray jackets were just my style. Each look was seemingly paired with a soft
scarf wrapped easily under the outerwear. And there weren’t just gray shapely
jackets, but dark and timeless blazers, waistcoats, cardigans, and even a white
moto jacket with multiple zippers. The looks were modern yet aged,
feminine yet masculine, and timeless yet avant-garde. Totally full of romance.
The wilted grayscale flower pins graced lapels and breasts like they were boutonnieres.
I think John Varvatos is very interesting in the fact that he understands
menswear and morphs it into whatever he likes. I mean to say that he
understands that not every man dresses the same. He can create things that are
feminine on a man, without going overboard. His clothes still contain a strong
element of masculinity. That blend in clothing entices me. I believe that idea
of blending is reflected in my personal style. All of the clothes were in
grayscale, with a few exceptions of faded roses and browns. It seems ethereal,
almost like a fairytale. All of the pieces, including the sunglasses and bags
are undoubtedly sellable. Bottom line: John Varvatos is still and has always
been an incredible rock star for menswear.
