Givenchy Menswear Spring Summer 2015 presents a sharp and deliberate exploration of contrast, where florals are stripped of softness and reworked into something graphic, urban, and confrontational. Under the creative direction of Riccardo Tisci, the collection challenges long held associations between floral motifs and delicacy, reframing them instead as symbols of strength, uniformity, and controlled rebellion

Rick Owens Menswear S/S 2015 Intergalactic Gladiator Basketballers
Rick Owens Menswear Spring Summer 2015 unfolds like a vision pulled from myth, sport, and science fiction, merging ancient references with futuristic unease. The collection feels suspended between eras, imagining warriors dressed for both ceremonial combat and athletic ritual. It is old world fantasy filtered through Owens’ unmistakable lens of severity, restraint, and otherworldly beauty.

Yohji Yamamoto Menswear S/S 2015
Yohji Yamamoto’s Menswear Spring Summer 2015 show felt like a reminder of why his work continues to sit outside trend cycles entirely. While much of menswear at the time leaned toward polish or normcore restraint, Yamamoto delivered something far more assured. Relaxed, romantic, and intellectually rigorous all at once. Formal homeless chic at its most refined.

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:

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
Burberry Prorsum’s Spring Summer 2015 menswear collection arrived with a sense of confidence that felt both polished and quietly experimental. Under the direction of Christopher Bailey, the house continued to refine its vision of modern British elegance, blending tradition with a willingness to play with color, proportion, and styling in a way that felt fresh rather than forced.
