Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2011.

Men's Fall/Winter fashion has taken off in Milan.

One of my favorite shows and collections of the season is Dolce & Gabbana's eclectic array of men's fashion that rivals the thought that men's fashion could be rather humdrum. 

With styles, colors and textures galore, Dolce & Gabbana did an excellent job infusing energy into the world of men's fashion again:

The classic black suit

Red & Grey [note the vests]

Striped Sweaters & Fedoras

More stripes

Gray & White combinations with skinny ties & suspenders.

Yes.

Jackets & Trousers

Fur & Graphic T's

A little glam

Brad Kroenig & Son.

The Plaid Blazer

In men's fashion, nothing says Fall better than a tailored plaid blazer over a cardigan, sweater or shirt.

Try wearing a plaid blazer with a pair of trousers or even jeans to create a casual look that's fashionable and easy to wear:

Adding pattern to your otherwise solid blocks of color, will break up your look and create a more vivid European feel.

Sweaters.

For the holidays, try something comfortable and fashionable by wearing a soft sweater with your casual look:

But for the fashion forward man, the sweater works over the collared shirt and underneath the blazer for a classy casual getup.

Shirt + Tie Rules.

With all the hussle and bussle of these next couple of months, give your mind a break from having to worry about one more thing and follow our tips on how to pair your shirts and ties (continued).

Try mixing your plaid shirts with your solid ties to create a nice balance for the eyes.

Spice up your white dress shirt by adding your plaid tie to your combo making your look a bit more festive!



And an unlikely pairing will be your plaid shirts and polka dot ties.
It's fun and playful and just right for the holiday spirit.
