Backstage at Buckler

Filed under: Fashion, Best of the Season, Runway Report, Stylish Living


Andrew Buckler (at right) showed off a strong collection of casual men's wear at his s/s '09 presentation over NY Men's Runway. Some reviewers have taken to calling it an asymmetrical look, but there's something a little more relevant going down.

Buckler is toying with the rocker silhouette, taking that powerful "V" shape that we usually see form between both shoulders to center chest, and redirecting the shape.

The upper torso kinda spins around thanks to a double breasted type of play on closure (that's closing the garment, not a emotional closure. Although one could easily argue there is a sentimental attachment to closures or, even, pocketing).

In many cases, the look is tweaked to seem off center or pulled to the side, a kinda of subtle rebellion against the rules of dress. The visual run of show as assembled backstage (below), reflects how the designer organizes and executes his runway looks.
