Man on the Move: Whiteout

Todd Synder Spring/Summer 2016

Tis the season for Todd Snyder statements. For this Spring 2016 Collection, monochromatic separates unite in synchronicity so to refocus an attention to the details that sets apart a heritage of traditional uniform of wool-based suit sets and shoe shined derbys. The Midwest designer expresses his devotion to the conversation between Savile Row bespoke and New York’s downtown sense of modernization through this minimalist suit design and striking traditional oxford shoes. The impact results in the new vision for this classic garb — New York is sleepless over. Introducing a type of ingenuity that cannot be contained; minimalism meets tailored oufitting is the new fit for the modern man. 

Style Advice: Summer is the season for simple fashion, In both aesthetic and design, clothing has an ease racing through its system of color coded ensembles. Pieces resembling the Brooks Brothers Fitzgerald Fit Three – Piece Linen Suit, ($559) and Robert Clergerie SIR ROMY White ($255) oxford shoe are concrete items that compliment one another in uniform and on other days, serve as separates to mix and match. 

Aesthetically appealing the minimally minded and those with a sharp fashion perspective, the whiteout outfit is meant for moments of sweet sophisticated summer. In other words, a full white tie attire is worthy of adventure. Picture a seaside escape of France, settled with pickled sandwiches and bubbly drinks at restaurants furnished with navy blue umbrellas and private cabanas, the white suit deserves the luxuries of life. Style the white suit and matching oxfords to enjoy similar situations. All elements of the outfit — suit jacket, pants, shoes and tie are arranged; complete the look through embracing life's situations that value its sophisticated expression.

Must Have: Among the active pop of color that marks the ties and pocket square accessories deemed trendy right now, the slick skinny white tie becomes a treasured find. Knitted ties by Drakes and Marwood styles decorated with applique and lace embroidered accessories institute a competitive market. 

Irregardless, if there is one tie to invest in this summer, it is a skinny white tie. This is a classic statement of summer. For an update, shop BOSS, HUGO BOSS’s Tie 5 cm Skinny Italian Silk Knit Tie ($145). This selected piece matches the caliber of competition. Notorious for sportswear influenced designs, the brand personifies the legacy of menswear through silhouettes and refashions through materials and prints. This color blocked skinny tie captures its craftsmanship. This style is an understatement. Its silk stature carries tradition as its print and patter of design brings dynamic to a strict sense of style. Modern, clean and trendy describe its movement towards redefining menswear. 

Industry Update: Breaking news — there is an update to last weeks report on the new direction of Burberry’s expansion. In recent news, the company's efforts have reached a hurdle. A decision influenced by the United Kingdom’s recent Brexit vote, the brand has decided to delay its plan for advancements — a deal to construct a in Leeds.  The economic effect which resulted at country’s separation from the European Union, leaves the United Kingdom in a difficult economic state. The New York Times reports, “ the dire consequences of leaving [include] a weaken currency, job losses, slower growth, depressed trade, the end of London’s status as a world finance capital and a loss of influence in European affairs.”  The rushed halt in the brand's strategy for development remains indefinite. Despite this, one claim is certain, that is, just how this recent news has effected the advancements of the fashion industry. Its status defined from life and the world's events reveals itself one again. Standby for new updates.
