Boys off duty

Time to get the groove back on. I just checked the schedule of the upcoming Men’s Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2010, and I expect the new season to bring some great surprises. Hoping to bring you the highlights of each day with my pretty brand new notebook and chewing everything but my lips while looking at some of my highly-expected collections: Comme des Garcons, Rick Owens, Ann Demeulemeester, Costume National, Dries Van Noten, YSL, Dior, Lanvin and Givenchy.
