Hot Or Not: Men’s Fashion Turban
Article by: Jacob KamaraIntroduction So this season I’m all over Millinery; from the upward flat peak cap to the Pillbox Pirate hat that’s slowly making appearances on the heads of boundary pushes. I’m even dabbling in those big avant-garde things that provoke such reactions as, “Will the person in the second row please remove the duvet from their head immediately”, or “Is that…

Autumn Winter Men’s fashion Trend – Queen’s Country
Article by: Jacob KamaraQueen’s Country A few months ago I leaped blindly on to the back of a trend I thought was going to be a biggie come those tedious winter months, which are approaching at an awfully rapid rate. Basically it went down like a gigantic, inflated sack of ‘Ralph Lauren’. However, I’m going back there and hopefully you’ll have had enough…

Article by: Jacob KamaraIntroduction – I Have A Problem Let me set the scene for you. It’s a Friday evening and I’m in Topman Oxford Street, gossiping with Terry the Topman stylist.

Extreme Men’s Fashion – Face Jewellery
Article by: Jacob KamaraWhen Art and Fashion Collide The boundaries between art and fashion can sometimes be a million miles apart, however in some cases, these very same boundaries can disappear entirely. Whilst the ‘Non-Fashpack’ are fumbling through immense bargain bins, overflowing with 100% polyester and stocking up on Asda (WalMart) ?2.99, stone wash denim bootlegs and marvelling over the practicality of an…

Graduate Fashion Week Round-Up
Article by: Jacob KamaraAfter trying to squeeze my pheasant tail-feather brooch into a packed out Central line tube, I arrived at Earls Court for the Graduate Fashion week Gala show and awards. Avoiding an embarrassing walk down the ‘Pink’ carpet we were bustled through into a Champagne reception. The bubbles were flowing and the Fash-Pack were in full swing. Members of the party…

High Fashion Report – Meggings
Article by: Jacob KamaraMeggings Early last week I took a visit to the London College of Fashion and I have to admit, I felt incredibly inferior on arrival. After all, these young, avant-garde and incredibly tall creatures are the next generation of the fashion industry. If that’s not enough intimidation to cause your senses to collapse into a puddle of gibbering goo, there’s…

Men’s High Fashion – The High-Top/Gladiator Hybrid
Article by: Jacob KamaraHigh-Top/Gladiator Footwear Hybrid I’m a sucker for a new pair of treads. Rarely a week will pass by when the temptation to buy yet another pair of shiny, Italian leather necessities doesn’t engross me uncontrollably to the point where my head no longer has control over my wallet. Due to this bitter sweet predicament, I have decided recently to put…

1940?s Rockability Trend and Look Book
Article by: Jacob Kamara1940’s Rockabilly Early last year the two main street style trends I noticed were the messenger-boy cyclist look, and the 1940’s vintage silhouette.

The original rockabilly trend started back in…

High Fashion Trend – Transparency
Article by: Jacob KamaraTransparency I can remember reading my first fashion magazine many years ago. The one thing that still stands out in my mind is a picture of a man wearing a plastic, transparent trench. I know, I know… a half naked man wearing a see-through coat, it’s going to stand out in anyone’s mind. The spread was a piece on the…

Bristol Fashion Week Round-up
Article by: Jacob KamaraBristol Fashion Week OK, so Bristol Fashion Week. Not exactly cutting edge, however there was free champagne. Joking aside fashion can be a scary and intimidating world, full of pursed lips and huge black sunglasses, so it was nice to see a family-orientated show, full of fun and bubbles (bloody champagne again). As Brad Palmer and I took our FROW…

Men’s Fashion Revival? The Plus Fours
Article by: Jacob KamaraI was delving through my wardrobe the other morning and was feeling, ‘let’s say’ less than inspired. Although men’s fashion for this season has been given the step up, it’s still difficult to buy high-end, less mainstream threads without spending an arm ‘n’ a leg. Because the majority of men do not want to let go of the standard jeans…

Reader Fashion Debate – The Men’s Playsuit
Article by: Jacob KamaraSo, I’m going to do the debate thing again, only because I love a bit of controversy. This time the unsuspecting victim is the men’s playsuit. Now when I first saw the man playsuit I felt my top lip curl involuntarily. However after some careful deliberating and styling to see what could be done with this all-in-one, I’ve decided I…

Men’s Accessories Round-Up & DIY-ed Beauties
Article by: Jacob KamaraAccessories are a fantastic way to liven up a plain (boring) outfit. With summer coming and hopefully a bit of heat (however doubtful that seems), the ability to layer and add things like scarves etc to perk up an outfit goes out the window. This is where the accessory comes in to play. I wear brooches a lot, mostly because…

Men’s Fashion Debate – The Man Skirt
Article by: Jacob KamaraOnce again fashion is causing a stir for people who have no intention in following it. As the man skirt gets more and more popular, and we’re not talking traditional native kilts here, it is certainly causing a controversial debate not only among fashionistas but Liberal human rights organisations.

Men’s DIY Fashion
Article by: Jacob KamaraRight guys, there are so many D.I.Y fashion articles and blogs circulating the glossies and the web but most are aimed at the girls, with not much information for the boys.
