While it’s hard to point out the exact moment when the army influence began affecting street-wear trends, it might just be safer to assume that the ongoing affair between military and fashion spans its long-lasting existence over many decades. Never really gone for good, the military aesthetic is constantly determining the shapes of the current trends, evolving in order to translate to modern but standing its ground. Knowing that fashion is inspired by and reflects the general tendencies in the world, the message that comes out is pretty sad. Unfortunately we are all aware of the unrest situation spread all over the world, especially in the middle east and Africa as well as Ukraine. Even though the fashion world is conscious about emphasizing and attracting attention to war in the world, it seems to have lost its purpose as a statement and has been over done and exploited. If you just take a look for a moment at some of the samples that the camo print has been applied, you will understand my point. I only ask you to keep is simple and classy...
This is the world of the modern gentlemen. The things you will find here are not about brands and seasonal fashions, they are about style, quality over quantity and tips on how to live life in a dapper style... Money can buy you all the fashion in the world, but it cannot buy you a thread of style. Style is what you do with the fashion that you buy. “Fashions fade, style is eternal.” ― Yves Saint-Laurent
