Men's
Pitti Uomo Report: Dots
The Pitti Uomo men’s wear fair in Florence is an essential market for retailers of European tailoring and luxury sportswear. The semiannual installation, happening this week, raises the curtain on the Fall/Winter 2012 collections. It is also ground zero for men from all over the world, of all ages, to display their sartorial savoir faire. These guys know the rules well enough to break them, to outstanding effect. Blogger/designer/trend-spotter Mordechai Rubinstein is on the scene for NMdaily.
Today I saw lots of polka dots. Dotted scarves in cottons, silks & wools. In neckwear, I saw dots in both silk and knit. While we are talking about accessories, I also spotted (pardon the pun) pocket squares and socks and even a shirt. Whether you’re brave enough to wear a bold colored scarf or more of a traditional Churchill dot necktie, dots are classic!
