Acne - Sweater ‘Detroit Print’ – £125
"Another new brand for us is Wooyoungmi, which is designed by two sisters who create pieces based on ‘their ideal man’. I have selected this floral sweater from their SS13 show to illustrate how the two designers contrasting tastes, one conservative and the other artistic, collide to create interesting pieces."
Wooyoungmi – Flower Sweatshirt - £190
"The SS13 show had a strong Gladiator theme running through, showcasing lots of metallic, silk and gold details. Bombers have been a recurring trend this season across the Designer brands we carry and this high shine bronze bomber is a great way to keep on trend."
Versace - ‘High-Shine Bomber’ – £725
"Wristwear, particularly bracelets, has been an increasing trend for the past few seasons. This wrap bracelet from M. Cohen is a one-off, unique piece made up of a vintage Hermes silk scarf and oxidised skulls."
M. Cohen - Bracelet – £360
"Alejandro’s iconic ‘TRON’ sneaker is always a sell-out for us, this season’s version in keeping with the metallic trend with gold panelling detailing."
Alejandro Ingelmo - 'TRON' Sneaker – £365
Label to Know - JET 8
Looking like Edward Scissorhands had an argument with Missoni, but in a good way, JET 8 is a new concept by French luxury brand S.T. Dupont.
A vibrant collection of knits, casual separates and outerwear, JET 8 delivers luxury intarsia cashmere knits, reversible sportswear jackets and lightweight chinos.
From vermilion red to bright green, pink and blue, colourful knits provide the core of the collection, alongside the JET 8's signature polo. For spring/summer 2013, this polo has been created in block-colour, jacquard and geometric designs and colour-ways (pictured).
The JET 8 concept is inspired by the 7 shades of the rainbow, '8' reflects the brand’s own strong personality. With 140 years of history in French handcrafted excellence, S.T. Dupont’s approach to JET 8 encompasses the assurance of Parisian design and quality alongside modern men's fashion.
Exclusive to Harvey Nichols.
