Jackets For All @ Bottega

At Bottega Veneta, Tomas Maier chose the jacket as the star of the show for Spring/Summer 2009. Which lets me know that menswear next spring will be nice, easy and lax {when relax meets chill} with fabrics that were unstructured, loose and comfortable bursting forward with cool cottons, crisp hues and a laidback sense of style.The silhouettes also appeared to be a homage to the late Yves Saint Laurent and his vision of Parisian masculinity: wide-shouldered, double-breasted jackets paired with roomy white cotton trousers kept the look neat yet comfortable.

"We arrived at this collection by thinking quite literally about a day in the life of a contemporary man," says Maier.
