NEW YORK FASHION WEEK: OBEDIENT SONS COLLECTION FALL/WINTER 2008/2009 MENSWEAR RUNWAY REVIEW
February 6, 2008
For Fall Winter 2008-09, the Obedient Sons collection featured modern twists on classic pieces.
Husband and wife team of Swaim and Christina Hutson most recently garnered recognition being for one of six finalists for GQ/C.F.D.A.’s Best New Menswear Designer in America award.
For this collection they chose to incorporate giant buffalo plaids and window pane plaids into tailored pieces. Modern, fitted silhouettes brought traditional fabrics up to date.
The edgy styling of shorts over fitted leggings kept the collection relevant as did shawl collars on tailored jackets. Certain trousers had cuffs at the ankles conveying the comfort of pajamas, while a wide neck crew sweater seemed incredibly right. Fingerless gloves were seen on all models in keeping with the trend seen throughout the Fall 2008 collection.
A color palette made heavy use of grey.
