In case you missed this little tidbit on T: The New York Times Style Magazine yesterday, men’s fashion director Bruce Pask shared some highlights of the TOM FORD Fall/Winter 2012 Menswear Presentation in Milan.
According to Pask, the collection, deemed “beyond elegant” on his personal Facebook page, ” was surprisingly neutral in comparison to brighter seasons past. The handpicked house models walked around the hyper-elegant and intimate showroom so that the clothes’ most tactile qualities could be properly appreciated.”
As for his favorite look?
“Argentine coyote, which has a rougher texture that Ford prefers, topped the lapels of [a] luxurious tweed coat worn with the softest buttoned knit and a checked, pleated trouser, all in toffee brown tones.”
Thanks to the talents of Fashion illustrator Richard Haines, we actually get to see a sneak peek of the look described above:

That coat… oh, that coat looks divine, even as an illustration!
So tell me, what do you think?

Sneak peek! Hee, I giggled at my computer screen. 😉
That illustration is fantastic and really I’m starting to wonder why I don’t pay more attention to his menswear designs (I mean, obviously I know his suits, but there’s more to menswear than that!). I’d love to consider whether his menswear designs have an echoes in his womenswear collections, you know? Plus I’m all about seeing how menswear can be unique and that look screams unique.
