John Galliano Menswear Spring 2011

John Galliano recently showed his menswear Spring 2011 collection in Milan. Menswear usually does not interest me, but this collection was inspired by Charlie Chaplin and has that signature Galliano flare.

Baggier pants and both jackets that are too big and too small were seen. Men can breathe easier now knowing that they need not to fit into super skinny pants and jeans come Spring.

A dark, yet slightly comedic, mood could be felt with the too big, round toed shoes and caps. Newsboy caps and fedoras perched atop the heads of men whose wild black waves had momentarily been tamed.

Muddy colors dominated: brown, tan, navy, cream, military green. Bits of checked pattern peeked out from under jackets and were layered under button down shirts. Layering button down shirts, vests, and jackets are a must.

The lovable trap paraded down the runway in a metallic trench, cinched tightly at the waist. Men can translate this into everyday wear with a classic trench, but try a darker brown instead of the traditional khaki.

Galliano also showed lighter colored suits, but still played with proportions. Imagine Chaplin at a horse race, or sitting on a Southern patio sipping a mint julep or iced tea.
