Lavish ski resorts and the intelligent "playboy" come to life in Michael Bastian's Fall 2012 menswear line. Finely cut evening jackets with velvety shawl collars, woolen ties, and expressive scarves are mixed with youthful bursts of color: purple and red trousers. Tweed suits , seersucker shirts, and plaid smoking jackets all come together in a return to the classic era of men's dress, refreshed by quirky uses of color, casually opened shirts. This apparent Edwardian theme of the gentlemen is furthered by the use of bow ties, subtle furs, and a general feel of antiquity, interplaying with a kind of playful approaches to the male wardrobe.
