Skies of Grey: Kris Van Assche
Straight off the runway and into your homes I present Kris Van Assche SS 09 as shown in Milan. This is like Justin Timberlake's closet seriously. I'm not complaining though I think this is a perfect opportunity for us to explore how we can do grey. Who said grey is gloomy? Above you see a cool grey with a calm green, slim fit pants (no pleats) and a white oxford.
Above you see a metalic grey accented by a crispy white oxford and all white sneakers. I want that jacket!
Here you see the metalic grey again but this time with a vest, the sleeves of the oxford rolled up, cool blue belt poking out, once again all white KVA's and this time the look is completed with a stingy brimmed fedora.
Here you see a breathable grey which is really perfect for the summer. Some people may feel because it is hot that you cant wear a suit but its quite the contrary. You should wear a cotton suit when the temperature rises. You'll be the only one not sweating when it looks like you should be sweating the most. Once again this grey is accented by a blue pocket scarf and a stingy brimmed fedora.
All of these looks are clean, safe looks. Personally I would have taken some risk with the metallic grey but I don't disagree with these looks, just saying that they are safe.
