Pioneer American designer at Pitti Uomo AW20/21

Pioneer American designer at Pitti Uomo AW20/21 Telfar Clemens founded his eponymous brand in 2005. Born in Queens, New York, he spent part of his childhood in Liberia, before moving to the US with his parents. He began designing and making his own clothes while still in high school because he couldn’t find what he was looking for in stores. In 2003, the designer began creating his own collection of deconstructed and reconstructed garments which he sold in New York City at the Lower East Side and Soho boutiques, before launching his own 100 percent unisex fashion label, Telfar, in 2005, showing in downtown galleries and clubs. In 2017, he won the CFDA / Vogue Fashion Fund award, and his clothes are now sold internationally at stores like Galleries Lafayette in Paris and Dover Street Market in London. Telfar’s AW20 collection shown in Florence was presented with creative director Babak Radboy and was in partnership with Slam Jam.  Checkout my Favorites off course ! ...

My Love for London

Image
I arrived at Heathrow Airport on April 11th 2019 at 11:15am, at that moment I realized how much I loved and missed London.   It was 22 ago I decided to figure out the world of fashion on the other end of the globe. My city of choice London, England! My return to London was long over due, every few years I would plan to a trip to return and then I would postpone.  But this trip was all  business which was my absolute  pleasure.  I had the chance to tour London all over again, there were so many more attractions and things to do. I was exhausted trying to schedule my 4 days wisely. The city has grown taller with high rise office buildings and condos everywhere, this was not the London I left in 1997. The purpose for my business trip was research for the expansion of M.E.F. Productions LLC.  This expansions includes a customized  Fashion Travel Division  "aka" M.E.F. Travel Experience. My goal for M.E.F. Travel Experience is to offer my client...

Menswear Monday: Leather Pants!

Image
Hello Guys, I'm back and today is Menswear Monday. This subject is a little touchy but necessary before the fall season approaches. How do you wear Leather Pants? Lol!! Yes I'm back!! The million dollar question is why Leather Pants? Well, I can't tell you why but I can give you my opinion on how those Leather Pants should look.  Any man who chooses to wear leather pants has his own expectation. Whether he wants to feel sexy, mucho or fashionable in his mind Leather Pants will give him that look. This is definitely a confident purchase, this guy is very sure about himself and is not afraid of what anyone thinks. We really like this guy for his boldness and confidence, he is definitely a Fashion Lion. But before I sing all his praises the look must be well thought out. Lions are known for watching and observing before they go in for the kill. These Fashion Lions Killed it!!

Let me give you some reason, 1. you show just enough leg ( upper thigh is a bit to much leg) 2. Its both causal or dressy 3.A classic style 4. Every brand has a walking short 5.You can carry your wallet and keys with ease 6. I just love them! Off course I like what I like, but you know what's best for you just please, NO Short Shorts !

Men's Wear Monday " Watch Guy"

Happy Men's Wear Monday!   Lets get down to business, time is of the essence! Lol!  Lets talk about your time piece. The watch is one of the accessories you most have in your wardrobe. Actually, you need more the one. You most have an everyday watch, and a dressy watch a splurge usually a brand like Gucci, Omega, Rolex, Cartier, TAG Heuer etc.      Your watch tells so much about your personal. For one a watch tells how serious you are about your time.( It gives you BOSS Status).  In a world of unlimited technology you don't have to wear a watch, but you should!! A watch  completes your look, it makes you look professional, smart and mature. Grow up and get a watch, stop depending on your cell phone or the clock in your car. Get dress and don't forget your time piece.
