Suits and stripes....

“Walk tall, walk tall and look the world straight in the eye”

There is nothing like a suit to help people do exactly that.

In his magical hall of mirrors at the Gucci Hub in Milan, Alessandro Michele gave us lots and lots of them in his latest collection, Exquisite Gucci.

Watching this show, I was again struck by just how powerful a good walk is. I realised that often I look at the models posture before I look at the clothes. Yes yes I know I sound like a Victorian lady at a finishing school but good posture makes such a difference.

I was also captivated by the The opening track of the show "To The Hills" Il Partigiano Johnny by Alexander Balanescu. Just beautiful…

By now you will doubtless have been overwhelmed with images showing the collaboration with Adidas .

There is no date yet for release for the pieces yet but Im guessing it’s safe to say you will see them on every sneaker head and bright young thing with an instagram following.

To be fair there is an effortless look to the whole thing which is very appealing. It’s a smart new world out there.

This suit and glasses made me think of a young Maurizio Gucci
