Brands Investing In For AW12

Looking at the AW12/13 collections I am looking to invest in the following brands.

Woolrich
Junya Watanabe MAN
Nigel Cabourn
Maison Martin Margiela
Raf Simons
Stone Island
YMC
Folk
Han Kjobenhavn
Engineered Garments
Adidas
Paraboot
Bass

I am going to be investing in a Malory jacket by Nigel Cabourn for sure and possibly a Stone Island Ice Jacket.

Some good thick woolen jumpers and sweatshirts are needed because I think it is going to be a cold winter.

I also really need to build up my shirts and tee shirts because I have neglected them over the last year.

From a colour perspective I am looking at investing in bright blue, grey, orange, and white - carrying over the dark blue and green from last winter. 

A Great Look From YMC

SS12 Thoughts

I have been a little bit underwhelmed by the SS12 collections, saying that I have picked up a few great pieces and they will be in my collection for years.

Nigel Cabourn Tenzing Jacket & Bombay Bloomers
Belstaff summer jacket & Edwin jeans

Plus some great tee shirts and tops from the likes of YMC, Folk, Woolrich & Nigel Cabourn.

I wish that I had picked up a Stone Island Ice Jacket.

For the first time in years I lost a piece of clothing - my Cabourn Admiralty Jumper - I am still very upset by this but it did teach me a good lesson.

Never go out drinking with journalist again ... I am just too old for that sort of thing these days.

The gap in my wardrobe and from current designers is the future ... I always like an influence from the past, present and future.  I probably need to go out and find a couple of new inspiring designers to add a bit more life for AW12/13.

Some Summer Picks From Glass Boutique & Oi Polloi

YMC orange stripe t-shirt from Glass Boutique, Levis bleached white jeans & Chuck Taylor all star from Oi Polloi.
