So I've been searching high and low for the coolest and freshest stuff for the fashionable, confident, daring guys out there in the world. There's so many out there I didn't know how to choose for this month's spotlight. So, I've decided to feature my top 5 brands and designers to check out. All 5 brands and designers range from the skateboard, hip-hop fashion to the high end, designer name. I think with the right attitude and the right confidence ANY guy can pull all styles off either by its self or all together at once. You don't need to be a male supermodel to pull off any of these looks. Just a comfort in your own skin and the right kind of attitude, and you're on your way.
#5. DURKL 2047- This brand is straight out of Washington DC. Its fresh,quirky and still simple at the same time with a splash of color. I love the high collar sweaters and the quirky messages on the t-shirts. Although I could do without the plaid shirts. Durkl is for that cool, comfortable guy. Durkl is a brand that is a hidden gem and will be bigger once the word gets out.
#4. GRENSON - Started at 1866 right out of England, Grenson is a brand every man should own,and to be on every man's feet. With a stylish, polish and yet sophisticated style, Grenson brings it back to the vintage old country feel in the designs. With a nice suit or just a nice casual outfit Grenson will make the outfit complete.With classic, rich colors Grenson are shoes that definitely posses style.
#3. KEN DIAMOND- Home town designer right out of Vancouver BC, Ken Diamond is no diamond in the ruff. His artistry in handmade leather goods, can make anyone melt over his products. From Wallets, dog leashes, messenger bags , and my favorite the moccasins, just makes you feel all excited, warm and fuzzy inside wishing winter would come sooner then later. With the design philosophy of using high end leather with a classic finish. Ken diamond keeps its simple yet always remains a fashion staple.
#2. PHILIP SPARKS- Canadian born talent Philip Sparks is a men's wear designer that isn't afraid to add style to a man's wardrobe. Since showing his first collection at LG fashion week, Philip Sparks is a name that everyone recognized. One of my favorite collections he came out with is his fall 2009 collection. With a feel of a "with love from Russia" concept Philip Sparks 2009 collection posses rich, luxurious fabrics and silhouettes. With using traditional materials and methods in his collections, Philip Sparks will always remain a brand that is truly posses quality.
#1. Tom Ford- American born designer and now film director ( A single man) became world wide known for his turnaround of the Gucci house and being the creative director for YSL (1994-2004) Soon after, Tom ford the label was formed. With a focus on mainly men's wear Tom Ford never disappointments with each season he comes out with. Branching into accessories, and the beauty market Tom ford still remains a classic that every man should have in his closet, and every women should have as, an accessory.
