John Varvatos, Spring 2010 Collection at Milan Moda Uomo

The John Varvatos Spring-Summer 2010 Collection was a series of clean cut, soft garments, and silky looks in black, red, silver, grey-blue, and yellow. Refined fits were on display, especially in the classically-inspired coats and jackets. The addition of light scarves and shades to several looks projected a “too cool” vibe. Wearing looks from this line will surely boost the appearance of confidence for young businessmen on the move.

Versace Spring-Summer 2010 Collection at Milan Moda Uomo

Donatella Versace’s Spring-Summer 2010 mens collection featured simple chic shirts, loose long pants, and leather bracelets and bands on the wrists which matched the belts. Lots of long-sleeve earth color shirts with open button collars. Every outfit sent down the line was made of more or less matching pieces, so it was a bit like seeing a series of young millionaires’ uniforms paraded out, but not costumes per se. Overall a rather rugged appearance for summer.

CoSTUME NATIONAL, Spring-Summer 2010 Collection at Milan Moda Uomo

CoSTUME NATIONAL designer Ennio Capasa has said about his new collection, “I wanted to bring a symbolic jungle into a metropolis; a jungle made of emotions that would take us back to our deeper, more authentic side; recharging us with harmony and joy.” We read the words, but we don’t see the execution, unless that organic metropolis is supposed to be represented by the junior partners at a post-apocalyptic architectural firm.
