The Mark McNairy Spring/Summer 2013 runway show displayed the fun and playful style that McNairy is known for. Flashy patterns and prints are matched with more neutral items to create a look that pushes the boundaries without looking crazy.

The Mark McNairy Spring/Summer 2013 collection is called 'McNasty's Rock & Roll Circus,' which aptly describes the lively fashions walking down this runway. Polka-dots are seen throughout the collection, as well as a globe print. The collection mixes street wear and suit wear together to create something that could be worn to the office or on a weekend trip.

In a surprise appearance, artist Danny Brown walked down the runway sporting a metallic gold shorts suit. Definitely not a look for everyone, but who better to pull it off than a larger than life artist?
