The new Spring/Summer 2012 Petrou menswear collection features dapper tailored pieces with a monochromatic color scheme and some interestingly placed patterned fabrics. Blue, grey and khaki are the dominant colors in this diverse showing, mixed with what looks like a hodgepodge of clam shell and other geometric patterned materials that are used in the details of these modern suits.
The fabrics in this collection look to be of cotton, linen and khaki materials, making this range of avant-garde clothing perfect for warmer months. With draping and asymmetrical details this collection offers for some truly unique and versatile looks, while the bold patterns and more traditionally tailored pieces ground the collection with a masculine vibe. So if you’re looking to turn some heads this summer, why not do it with one of these dandy pieces from Petrou?
