The Missoni Fall/Winter 2014 menswear RTW collection captures the easy style of a global world traveller who can’t help but be influenced by places he visits. As Angela Missoni describes her collection, it’s about "wayfaring surfers riding their tidal wave around the world."
The relaxed menswear collection is made up of plenty of knits and ethnic-inspired patterns that can be seen on sweaters and the long blanket wraps that were toted by the models at Milan Fashion Week.
The colors that make up the latest Missoni collection seem to be a mix of earthy tones melded with hues from the 60s, which truly gets its point across about the modern nomadic hippie-bohemians that they clothe.
