Milan & Paris Menswear Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2011: The Hot Trends

Get Ready Boys: High-Waters, Speedos, Drop Crotch Pants and Mandals Dsquared2 Spring/Summer 2011: Two Trends In One: Speedos and Mandals

As ever Gay Fashionista Male in this Earth knows, the Spring 2011 Menswear Collections are happening right now in Milan. Menswear trends and styles change and/or move at a much slower pace than womenswear. It's all about the DETAILS. However, in terms of some "new" style direction coming out of Milan, here are the Trends: The 80s Are Back; High-water cropped pants are staying (they look great on them 6'4" boys, maybe not so much on the rest of us); DROP-CROTCH pants that are lose and baggy up top but tight-as-tight can be around the calves will be the "new" skinny pant for men, if Jean Paul Gaultier has his way. (I kinda love them, especially on his HOT bearded models in above photos!)I also like the Stovepipe-shaped pants (above) from Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton. Incidentally, that trench is "TO D.I.E!!!" LOVE.
The Speedo is BAAACK! Yep, dump the board shorts and opt for something more skimpy like the ones above from Dsquared2. Again, I suggest you have a body like Michael Phelps if you want to make that "Speedo" style plunge.Finally, it is all about the Mandals like the criss-cross ones from Louis Vuitton above, or the ivory ankle-strapped ones from Guiliani Fujimora. I am SO looking for these on Ebay next year!!!

Men's Runway Spring 2011 Milan Fashion Week: Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana

Spring 2011: Cropped Tops, 1985 Is Back, and I LOVE ANNIE LENNOX!!!The Men's Spring 2011 Shows are happening in Milan and besides all the hot 22 year old male models with .0000008 % of body fat being shown on the runway stage, there's actually a lot of news coming from the Fashion Front. Let's start with CROPPED Tops. Yep, it's 1985 and you are Andrew Ridgeley or George Michael from Wham! Italo Zucchelli, Calvin Klein Men's Creative Director, showed a crop top or two in his latest Menswear offering as well as Frankie Morello, which is a line designed by Maurizio Modica and Pier Fracesco Giliotti.Yep, check out that crop top above. That's going to be a HIT in the Jersey Shore come next Summer! But staying on with Calvin Klein, Zucchelli was in a definite DEVO-meets-A Flock Of Seagulls-meets-Wham 80s mood with... shiny suits like this one above (love the aquamarine knit crewneck top underneath),and bright Popsicle colored sweater-and-swimsuit combination (can you see these at your next Cabo outing?) and those aforementioned cropped tops that only a Pay-for-Play male "Escort" would love (and his Sugar Daddy).

Dolce & Gabbana Men Spring 2011:
For their twentieth anniversary show, Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana of the "We Love MADOOOOONNNNNA--and Scarlett Johansson Ads fame" showed classic elegant and sexy clothes just right for that Sicilian Pay-For-Play boy (is this a running theme?) who grew up and married a not-so-pretty heir-to-the-throne of a no-longer-a-monarchy-led nation. For Spring 2011, they showed lots of gorgeous relaxed yet still tailored beige, wheat and ivory suitings (above) great mini-collared shirts (my favorites!) and skinny ties, and a final tour-de-force of stunning sharp black suits. Of course, when the Dolce & Gabbana boy is not in them fab suits, he's in this:
When my Room Service Dinner shows up, this is what I'd like to think I look like as I get my Caprese Salad from the Relais Santa Croce in Florence Italy.
Congratulazioni per un favoloso venti anni di rendere gli uomini aspetto!

Nick Verreos LOVES Burberry Prorsum Autumn Winter 2010

Boots over Skinny Jeans and Trench Coats: My Traveling Outfit!
My I'm-Going-To-Florence-Italy-in-Business-Class ensemble...

Men's Fashion Week for Autumn/Winter 2010/11 just began in Milan and here's a peak of what the most fashionista (of the male persuasion) will be looking like.My I-am-Going-Out Ensemble...

I really, really like the Burberry Prorsum Collection (the HIGH end line) designed of course by Christopher Bailey. It's all about wearing your boots outside your skinny trousers (or jeans) and a tight cinched trench coat with a turned-up collar. I am all there! there was also a top and a coat with heavy gold metal paillette-looking detail which I need to HAVE!! I love the haircuts too--so cute!
