It was Paris’ turn to showcase what menswear will be available in the Spring/Summer seasons of 2011/2012 last weekend, and everything was a stunner…, well maybe not everything, like the horror that was the Givenchy and Kenzo collections, sigh. But here are some of my favourite looks from last weekend.

Dior Homme

I just don’t see Kris Van Assche’s vision for Dior Homme. He should focus on his namesake brand KVA.

Dries Van Noten

I love shades of brown

Hermes

This is my favourite collection from Paris this season

John Galliano

Another shade of brown, but it wasn’t Galliano who made this happen. It was the new guy at the label, Bill Gaytten. I’m anxious to see more collections from this newbie.

Lanvin

Alber Albez is seriously on track to turning Lanvin into a brand as big as can be. His success at Lanvin reminds me of how some of today’s biggest luxury brands Louis Vuitton, Hermes and Gucci through Marc Jabobs, Jean-Paul Gaultier and Tom Ford respectively where revived.

Louis Vuitton

Vuitton’s menswear line has a new Creative Director in the form of Tim Jones who grew up in Kenya. This was an exceptional collection and can only do good for LVMH.

H&M - Lanvin

Just in case you didn't know, H&M did a collaboration with the French Designer Alber Elbaz who's the Artistic Director of Lanvin. 

I've seen in some blogs that the collection comes out on on the 20th of November in the U.S.A. and Canada, and on the 23th in Europe, but I also saw another blog that a girl already had one of the dresses of the collection, so I was kinda confused >.<

But then I went to H&M offcial website and there was this:

"...the collection will go on sale on November 23 in around 200 H&M stores worldwide. The collection of both womenswear and menswear will be revealed to the world on November 2, just three weeks before the clothes hit the store, making the launch of Lanvin for H&M among the most anticipated fashion events of the year."

In the beginning of this month a video was released, the main action happens on the inside of a Hotel, where you then see actor/models with the cloths of the collection.

Most of the pieces cost around €149 a bit expensive for my pocket, and then you also have the 4 lipsticks (each 9.95€), necklaces, bag, earrings...

Below you can see some of the clothes that I like from the collection, plus the video commercial.
P.S.: You probably won't be able to see it on these pictures, but apperently some of the dresses have this "unfinished effect" on the bottom, meaning that the the bottom sometimes is purpusly a bit shreded, thy have some strings coming loose.
