swathed in cold steel gray,
eyes of cold steel gray, yearning
for infinite ills.

Glad that buttons are of color bands, not music bands.

I'd love to see this from behind, so I could be sure he's wearing his jacket backwards. The scarf gives it away for me.

Interesting that he chose to add those colorful buttons to such a utilitarian jacket; can't be too monotone. and I love the way he tied his scarf

The colors and placement of the buttons are my fave part and what makes this look for me.

His buttons add just the right amount of personality to that coat.

Brutish silhouette, architecturally minimalist wafts.

Mmm. There is something very sexy about him. The look in his eyes I think.

Never expected a man with such a gorgeous mien to fancy and be paired with a funky old Chairman Mao jacket, with veritable color wheel buttons to boot. Heart this, Sart!

 

Blogger ql said ... (4:32 AM) : 

is there a zipper on the back?

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:35 AM) : 

he looks great! the buttons draws all the attention - but i love also the very simple forms. the jacket could look like a workers garment from china (but also other countries have this blue, padded cotton jackets with very few details for workers.) I'm guessing this young gentleman is an architect who went to china for a workshop and got inspired in other ways too...

Blogger Unknown said ... (6:59 AM) : 

This is Igor Garanin from Russian GQ and GQ-style editor?
You can see him in this photo http://lofter.ru/ru/node/220955/people/111292/3 or if you type "Игорь Гаранин" in google.

 

Blogger Stella said ... (7:26 AM) : 

Super cool. The jacket reminds me of those chinese quilted jackets. The trousers counter act the volume of the jacket, and the buttons add a nice splash of colour. Cosy and stylish.

I love grey.A revision of the man in the gray flannel suit.Easy,simple,classical and modern at the same time.

So young and confident a man, that's what translates the outfit. Very attractive.

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (10:07 AM) : 

The buttons are very clever, and very easy to make. The jacket reminds me of a straight jacket...not a calming association.

Anonymous Sam said ... (11:19 AM) : 

Very interesting coat, I don't think I've ever seen something like this before. Love the messy knot on the scarf and the colorful buttons!

Anonymous rachel said ... (11:32 AM) : 

While he's a nice-looking guy and I like the colors and textures, I agree with Anonymous 10:07--the straitjacket resemblance is a little alarming.

 

Anonymous grizzlesnort said ... (11:35 AM) : 

I like the jacket even though I agree with the duvet/ happy commune workers/ strait jacket associations.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:12 PM) : 

the sweater is buttoned on the shoulder (on the right side). cool idea!

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (12:14 PM) : 

i thought chef garb... not so morbidly strait jacket...

i like the happy buttons; it changes what it can be

And then there's Maude...

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:14 PM) : 

Looks amazing. We often have very clear associations when it comes to military chic - think trench coats, epaulettes, etc. The above comments have shown that we do not usually conceive this outfit to fall in the same category. Some background on the jacket though may change this, esp. considering the fact that our street model seems to be Russian. This type of jacket (grey, beige, olive) was worn by certain types Russian soldiers, mainly rear-gunners in a bomber airplane or MG-crews in winter. Quite ironic that the colour of this jacket is Prussian-blue (Preussisch-Blau), thereby marrying former enemies into a peaceful entity. Quite brilliant outfit with more cultural/social implications than first meets the eye.

He reminds me of a Russian inmate

Igor is a executive editor of russian GQ Style and also executive fashion editor of russian GQ.
And what about his jersey or it would be more correctly to call it cotton wadded pull-over? Usually prisoners wear it like a uniform. As we know uniform is a trend of lastest designers collection. So together with a help of a scarf and a few buttons "a la ralph lauren" it looks stylish. Igor reEnvented an alternative to a jacket and a coat.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (7:44 PM) : 

Very Japanese! Honoring the fashion history in light of tragedy, love it.

 

Blogger Justin Ferré said ... (2:22 AM) : 

I remember reading some comments expressing their animosity towards Scott's coverage of the influx of new season shows. I ask for the said posters to redirect their attention from price tags and admire what's being produced at hand.

This silhouette bears a strong resemblance to that of Burberry Prorsum Menswear Autumn/Winter 2011-12 show. It's a perfect example of how one can draw inspiration from the lovely (and often unaffordable) designer brands and make it our own.

Being a student/part-timer, I am all too familiar with my financial constraints keeping the wares of the major fashion houses beyond my grasp. So I admire from afar. Reinterpret as I do. And relish in any fortune that comes my way.

 

Anonymous Anonymous said ... (6:58 AM) : 

where can you get those buttons - very paul smith lol

Is he wearing his coat backwards? I'm not really liking this look. It's very bland- nice buttons though.

This looks like a jacket worn in fencing matches. Could it be?
