    Marc Jacob’s collection for Spring/Summer touches on very classical and traditional garments all with subtle quirks typical of the designer. We see some very nice detailing and even seams hand drawn with black ink.  Marc references 1980’s NYC as a source of inspiration and there is a tone of ‘no messy about’ in this range.

  • Nepenthes Asymmetric Brogue

    nepenthes-asymmetric-brogue1

    The  remergence of the Brogue, whether pebble grain, Italian leather, or suede, can add a classical touch to any suit. Although due to the bulky character, wearing an Adam Kimmel suit would be more fitting than one produced by Dior. In a risky attempt to add a more avant garde appeal to such a traditional shoe, Nepenthes decided to play with the toe cap design. For most Brogues the toe area is where distinction is found. Nepenthes took the asymmetric approach and did two classic designs on one pair. The end result goes almost unnoticed oddly enough. It most be the rich brown suede that distracts the attention.
