Designer Daily: Munsoo Kwon

I feel new talent rising. With proportions that reform the body, Munsoo Kwon‘s menswear has a sense of humor with strict attention to detail. These are basics that will change the look of an entire outfit without overpowering. He has apprenticed under Helmut Lang, Robert Geller and Thom Browne, and his philosophy aligns. Now after 5 seasons of designing for Andrew Buckler, Munsoo Kwon is stepping into the light. His Fall 2012 collection is upon us already, getting a jump on the season. See his film and lookbook here.

#NYFW Cheat Sheet: Buckler Spring 2012

Andrew Buckler took his show to the street (literally) for the second season in a row. For and hour a block of the meatpacking district was sectioned off for a group of dandy gentleman and random passerbys to enjoy the runway presentation. Spring knits, nautical stripes, and varsity jackets were given the downtown treatment. Drop crotches, snoods, and distressed denim reminded everyone of the label’s signature style.

Color palette: Blacks, Greys, Navy
Mood: Downtown dandy
Statement Pieces: Mirrored round sunglasses, anything with a snood
Front Row Of Curb Name Drops: Nick Wooster & Miguel
Gossip: If the wireless speakers didn’t work then someone might b-box the show
Runway Music: Electro Trip Hop

BTW this also the show this Indie got photographed by Tommy Ton.

Buckler A/W 2011

Buckler‘s show on Friday took place outside of their store on Grand Street. For the occasion they shut down the entire block between Greene and Mercer Streets, creating some curiosity from passersby as to why there was a mini- army of gorgeous, well-dressed men parading down the street.

The street show was part of designer Andrew Buckler‘s influence for the fall collection, urban art. Entitled “Anonymous Art,” Buckler wanted to shine a light on the artists who use the streets as their “medium to communicate messages, discussions and where they question the conventions of art.”

The clothes came in a predominately dark palette, with an occasional shock of yellow as seen in a Parka, a pair of pants and an ear muff. The pieces were intended to serve interpretations of classic utilitarian pieces such as the hoodie and the cargo pant.

Unfortunately I got lost on the way to the presentation (a wedged heel is surprisingly not the best walking shoe in SoHo), but saw enough from my vantage point — perched on a storefront stoop like a rare breed of blogger pigeon — to witness the art unfold. And luckily the weather cooperated so the models didn’t have to use their yellow Buckler Parkas to brave a snow or rainstorm.
