Less than one year since opening his flagship designer store in New York, eminent fashion designer Matthew Williamson is set to launch his [first signature Spring/Summer menswear line](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-1) this February at London Fashion Week.

The Matthew Williamson Spring/Summer 2010 collection is a bold array of [slim-fitting cashmere jumpers, printed silk](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robert-barakett-spring), and beaded T-shirts. This simple yet intensely hued menswear collection is expected to complement his successful [H&M](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/femininity-in-bloom) Summer '09 line.

**Implications** - Men in the modern sphere are getting in touch with their fashionable sides more than ever before.
