It’s like color blocking! Without the color. Very simple and the most important very flattering. The black bottoms slim your legs and no one really wears tight white shirts lately so it’s a win win.

Lacoste AW14
More fashion but still very sports inspired. It’s said this collection was based on René Lacoste’s 1920s golf course, Chantaco.

COMME DES GARÇONS HOMME PLUS AW14

It seems the models were each wearing glossy gas masks hiding their identity, but upon further inspection you notice it is black hair pulled over their faces twisted down to a swirling black rope. Things that stood out most would be the strategically placed holes on the black formal wear that flowed through the whole show. The fits where loose and flowing as they glided across the room. source:
