Screw models and flesh tones--the Petrou\Man Spring/Summer 2010 catalogue proves that striped and star-spangled skin beats nudity any day, so long as [fierce suits and separates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26) are involved. The patterned full-body socks the models rock punctuate the fashions in this lookbook quite nicely.

We've seen a number of [men's fashion shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25) that eschew flesh by covering up models' faces, necks and hands with patterned fabric. Check out more images of the Petrou\Man Spring/Summer 2010 catalogue above, and keep clicking for more skin-free fashiontography.
