In a similar vein to the London Showrooms, Esquire and Colin McDowell presented a catwalk film of seven British menswear designers who should be seen by the buyers in Paris. The so called magnificent seven consisted Richard James, Domingo Rodriguez, E. Tautz, Oliver Spencer, Gieves & Hawkes, Baartmans & Siegel and Hart Savile Row. Last week Esquire posted a sneak peek in to what we'll be seeing next summer and even though the line up included a number of established design talent, my interest peaked with Baartmans & Siegel.
Since we covered the degree collections of both design halves that make up Baartmans & Siegel, the label has become one to watch, recognisable by the pairs use of interactive texture and sharp tailoring. It has quickly established itself to become synonymous with interesting details and a menacing masculinity. Just as their AW10/11 capsule collection launched exclusively at Harrods, I caught up with the pair to take a closer look at their SS11 offering. Before I take you on an in depth tour of the collection though I think it best to share their latest look book with you (warning, it includes an all too familiar face)...
Aquatic inspiration without a breton in sight.
The simple yet playful silhouettes are stunning throughout
I tired on the double breasted blazer on the right and my body misses it now. I'll have to save up. Also, if you're lusting over the butter soft brogues they have been supplied by Grensons.
The back detailing on the trench is particularly flattering.
