Sunday, Valentine’s Day, was the SIMON SPURR Fall 2010 fashion show. This was Simon’s first runway show after several successful seasons of menswear presentations. He debuted his new high-end tailored collection SIMON SPURR.
Designer Simon Spurr said of his collection, “I am English and my brand is decidedly American. I really wanted to establish my British roots and deliver something modern and elegant into American fashion week.”
Models walked on the runway to songs such as:
1) Who Dares Wins – The Streets
2) Impossible – Daniel Merriweather
3) Dream City – Free Energy
4) She Loves Everybody – Chester French
5) You Talk – Babyshambles
6) Nobody Could Change Your Mind – The Generationals
Notable attendees included: Milo Ventimiglia (NBC’s Heroes), Anna Wintour, Robert Verdi, and Arden Wohl.
The collection was an eclectic mix of colorful pieces in aubergine, blueberry, and eggplant as well as tailored classic pinstriped suiting. The fabrics had a lot of pattern, texture, and sheen. I hope we’ll be seeing a lot more of these trends in menswear this coming Fall!
