W e keep things rolling here (a little hick-up from the Golden Globes) with part 2 of my favorite looks from Milan Fashion Week for menswear...
This is something I saw on the way to a 'meeting' yesterday. Two different looks on two different classy women. With a little tweak here and there, I thought of an outfit putting the two looks together.

I'll be totally honest, as I always am, this look was inspired by a character by the name of Melisandre from the epic fantasy A Song of Ice and Fire. For those who aren't familiar, it is where the hit TV show on HBO Game of Thrones comes from. I'm totally addicted to this series of novels (and it continues with books to yet to be published) so it was only natural for me to put up a nice outfit.
The character is pretty much dipped all in red, from her hair to her toe-nails...OK maybe not the toe-nails because there is no mention of them. But I'm pretty sure she painted them some shade of red. I didn't exaggerate with this look for obvious reasons, I am not telling anyone to dawn an all red costume and snap on a red wig. One thing for sure, the actress Carice von Houten, who plays as Melisandre on the show is incredibly sexy.

Believe it or not, I would miss the Golden Globes just to be in Italy and attend Pitti Uomo (held in Florence, Tuscany) then, quickly head on over to Milan to sit near the runways of fashion week. One brilliant collection after another, it's Part 3 of the series of the fall/winter 2012-2013 collections. Remember, if you haven't checked out Part 2 of this series please click here: Part 2 of MFW.
Pringle of Scotland
Bally
Missoni
Moncler Gamme Bleu
Calvin Klein
Prada
The winner in this part definitely had to be Prada for me. Miuccia's mix of the 1920s inspired with today's modern twist struck gold with this collection. And yes, it does help when you have famous and reputable actors (Adrian Brody, Gary Oldman, Jamie Bell, Emile Hirsch, Willem Dafoe, Tim Roth) as part of the runway walking as models.
More to come in Part 4, stay tuned!
