New York based Swede Patrik Ervell’s 2010 collection continues his intellectual and minimal approach to menswear with his Fall/Winter 2010 presentation at New York Fashion Week.  Featuring a fairly subdued colour palette of black,  grays, creams, blues and white he adopts a fitted and more structured approach than previous seasons that seem both formal and casual at the same time.  Timeless is perhaps one of the most overused phrases in menswear at the moment but its perfectly apt for this collection which echoes the preppy early 60s look that we know so well right now, with a real modernist edge to the cut.  I particularly like the way he uses translucent chiffon scarfs and plastic raincoats to soften the look.
