THE POWER OF PLAID

Fall and Winter are the best seasons.
I love the rain, I love to layer and I love coats, so naturally I’m partial to this time of year.
And one of the biggest trends resounding through all mens lines this season: Plaid.
Plaid has become a staple to menswear and for Fall/Winter 2011:12 you won’t find a pattern more transcending.

Plaids are bold. Not for the faint of heart. If you’re going to wear plaid, you’re asking for attention so be ready & dress sharply.

Paul Stuart of New York did a whole homage to Plaid for their Fall window treatments titled: 
Mad for Plaid that I thought was brilliant, which was my inspiration for this post.


If you need to build your plaid esteem, start small. Adding a plaid tie, or a plaid pocket square can be just the right amount of pop you need to lift your look.


Nothing says confidence like a clean plaid shirt with a suit
or plaid shirt + vest combo, casual sophistication.
Plaid shirts aren't just meant for grunge wear.
When worn well, plaid can only say good things about you.

Rocking the plaid suit...
Welcome to the big leagues.
Plaid = Power.


what's plaid without Burberry? showcasing their iconic plaid since the 1920s
and almost a century later it is still alive for fall/winter 2011/12
