Kenzo’s SS15 collection was centered around pastel sportswear. Solid long coats and caps with large outerwear with spots and stripes. Favorite pieces would have to be most of the pullovers and the graphic patterned pants. source:

Givenchy Menswear S/S 2015 B&W Floral Punk
Black and white floral urban punk. Surprisingly masculine in regards to the design factors, the floral designs are more seen as a camouflage graphic than a dainty and delicate representation in clothing. A few pieces wear actually womenswear and some female models were scattered throughout the show. source:

Rick Owens Menswear S/S 2015 Intergalactic Gladiator Basketballers
Old world and fantasy. Dressed as if a battle were to occur wearing sports jersey like pieces paired with wide shorts. Some models had full body paint of a solid lightly tinted dusty colors. Gladiators from another galaxy back in time. Interesting collection to see, it leaves you wondering. source:

Yohji Yamamoto Menswear S/S 2015
Yessss. Probably my personal favorite shows so far. Formal homeless chic at it’s best. Someone hold down the Olsen twins. The draping of rich fabrics playing against the baggy long tailoring creates a perfect balance between too relaxed and overdressed. Multiple combinations of pieces all combined to make similar silhouettes to each other. source:

Louis Vuitton Menswear S/S 2015, Young Throwback Chic
Classy and retro, from the prints to the patterns. Styled head to toe very cleanly and each model mostly paired with clean white sneakers. Very James Bond meets Rebel Without a Cause. My favorite separate pieces would have to be the mustard yellow outerwear and the multicolored bomber jackets. (throws money on the runway) source:

Raf Simons Menswear S/S 2015 Dark and Crazy
The Raf Simons brand is forever dark and cool, this collection is just that. It featured what I think and interpreted as an institutionalized theme, reveled by the uniform like outfits with a photo of the model wearing it on their chest like a badge. Also displaying other types of people associated with a private institution, from officials/doctors in coats and also the act of freedom/escape shown in the colorful graphic tanks full of land. Many long coats mixed with graphic pieces. Their hair styled tasseled and wispy. Full of unclear stories but always interesting and captivating. source:

Jil Sander Menswear S/S 2015 Not Pastel Goth
Sleek simple and on trend. A very not in your face collection from Jil Sander. The models where minimally style leaving the full attention to the uncomplicated design and fit. Extremely soft and understated paired with awesome footwear. source:

Roberto Cavalli Menswear S/S 2015 Lavish Safari Rockstars
This Roberto Cavalli collection is badass luxury and exotic. Full of colorful safari leaf and snakeskin prints. The play on the mixture of these prints with an array of different textures and styles. The more you think about it the more these pieces remind you of the 80’s, in the good way of course. source:

Dsquared2 Menswear S/S 2015 Young and Neon
A distinctively obvious Dsquared2 collection. With it’s young preppy rebel vibe and bright clothing #tanned #duckface. The thing that makes this show stand out of the rest are the uses of neon colors, we aren’t seeing much of those this season. Overall fun collection, I specifically enjoy the graphic art on the shirts and sweaters. Especially the cat sweater, meow.

Calvin Klein Menswear S/S 2015 A Timeline
This Calvin Klein collection is a story with a timeline unlike most collections this season. I assume the nude represents birth, the bright industrial plastic candy like coats represent blooming and/or our highest peak and the black is symbolic of death. It’s a lifespan, It’s interesting seeing them all dip into each-other as the timeline slowly progresses. I personally love the full nude and dark outfits because they are the extreme of both sides.

Burberry Prorsum Menswear S/S 2015
Very interesting collection, my favorite element of course would be the hats but also the very analogous color pallet. Single outfits all red, blue, yellow etc, but different kinds of shades and hues. Layered and well accessorized these gentlemen look stunningly dapper.
