Favorite Five: Moncler Gamme Bleu Fall 2013 Menswear
“Moncler Gamme Bleu reflects the synergy of Moncler’s expertise in active sportswear and outerwear with the hand-made tailoring sensibility of Thom Browne. For Fall/Winter 2013-14, the concept centers around the Scottish Highland games. Certain outfits of the games are so well known as to have become emblematic of Scotland, and are now making part of this collection, such as tartan plaid jackets with pleating detail, kilts and down-filled trousers. A full collection, featuring outerwear, trousers, shorts, jackets, shirts, sweaters and accessories, divided in four inspiration groups: navy/white, red/white/blue, grey, and black tie/formal. Classic tailored pieces: suits, sport coats, Chesterfield coat, trench, capes, cardigan, shirts, trousers, and shorts all with different levels for quilting. Fabrics and detailing: Shetland wool, cashmere/wool suiting, combed wool flannels, wool flannel in tartan plaid, Calvary wool twill as well as quintessential Moncler technical fabrics, such as Cordura and Ripstop nylon. Accessories: monkstrap shoes and boots in leather and Shetland wool.”
