Trendology: Louis Vuitton Menswear S/S Collection 2011

Luxurious bad boy look is what Marc Jacobs and Paul Helbers have in mind for this S/S menswear collection and I am addicted to it.

Marc and Paul have brought the monograms to a new level. First, some of the models are having the monogram tattoos and this element makes them look very bold and masculine on the runway. If this move does not convince you this duo is brilliant, how about turning the monograms into some kind of art prints and put them on the garments? By blending the monogram with some horses and floral prints, the outcome is fresh and pleasant for the eyes. It is so eye popping that I can't stop starring at the shirts and scarfs.

What I have also noticed in this collection is the belt on top of shirt trend. At first I thought this would only happen in the womenswear trend but the duo is showing us this trend is invading to the menswear world. The crepe shirt and black thin belts are something that will be on my wish list. If you like net material (I call the holes) pieces, there are plenty for you to choose from as well.

It is also worth to mention that my favorite pattern of all time, Damier Canvas, is getting a color treatment for this season. The colors in include sky blue and mustard yellow. I am hoping these colors will be another hit for the design house.

Congrats to Marc and Helbers for creating such an interesting S/S 2011 collection for all the bad boy wannabe!
