The Christophe Lemaire 2013 Fall/Winter collection is a mixture of tailored and layered loose-fit men's fashions.
Christophe Lemaire is no stranger to high fashion and has a ridiculous resume. Prior to launching his own label in 1991, the talented designer worked with labels such as Yves Saint Laurent, Thierry Mugler and even later, took on the role of creative director for French luxury goods brand Hermès. Lemaire's ability to design is without question and his F/W 2013 menswear collection hits it on the mark. The sensual series of nonchalant attire and over-sized pieces is thoughtful, functional and evokes a sense of subtle sacredness. Each look in the collection follows a loose-fit theme and presents men as masters of layering.
Divine pieces from the line-up include a pashmina wrap-style sweater, a draped grey evening coat and the plethora of baggy suits. The Christophe Lemaire 2013 F/W collection is precise, practical and full of neutral tones.
