Milan Fashion Week: menswear
Pringle of Scotland, Spring/Summer '09 (scroll down to read the review)
Pringle of Scotland
Over at Pringle of Scotland, in a simple showroom presentation Clare Waight Keller had a mission, to show ‘unforced fresh modernity’. The pieces were all easy - often that is the hardest thing of all to achieve and most men want nothing less.
Like the best of Milan, there was a studied lightness, in fabrics such as tropical wools and polished cool mohair mixes for clean tailoring, perforated suede for blousons, ultra-light glazed ramie in trench coats and mesh-like sweatshirt knits.
Keller managed to give the double layer, also seen at Bottega Veneta, her own twist. Here it was referred to as an ‘underpinning feature’ where lightweight shirts had two fronts (stripes beneath) and kagoules had a double opening, a tone lighter underneath. This gave a finished look with just the one piece.
This being Pringle there were great knits, from low buttoning cardigans with contrasting micro borders, to graphic stripes and ‘engineered’ banding that gave an optical illusion.
