Belfast FASHIONWEEK Menswear


Barely 20 minutes in to the closing Highstreet Haven catwalk show at Belfast Fashionweek and the crowd went wild. No, the West Coast Coolers had not run out. The first male model had arrived. And when we say model we mean Adonis.

Sporting looks from the likes of French Connection, Republic, Gap and Gino, male models Richie, Connor and Matthew John took to the runway to represent the modern man for this season's Spring/Summer 2012 trends.


Most of the looks were pretty standard and notably plain. Nautical themes, Sport's inspired styles, colored chinos and of course formal wear were the main looks on display. Ultimately serving to generate an energetic atmosphere as the guys reacted accordingly to an amazing response from the female crowd. I happened to be sitting in a row filled with glamorous mothers...I've never heard screams quite like it. Even when their own children took to the stage fronting kidswear's current styles and trends.


One male model in particular completely reveled in it. Even stripping off his t-shirt as a chorus of whistles and screams sang out managing to encourage a cheeky wink from stunning and charismatic model Caitlyn. I think his work is done.


He did look pretty good in a suit though. An off-white linen suit to be exact. Paired with a white shirt perfect for certain more formal beach getaways and of course those who own luxurious Yachts off the stunning cliff-faces of Ibiza. If anyone happens to know anyone this applies to please do not hesitate to pass on my details.


A pale blue tribly and a pair of red glasses were the token accessories. With the must-have denim shirt popping up here and there when required. P.S If you don't own a denim shirt you should really just find a way to go back in time to 2009 and stay there. Oh there was also some swimwear thrown in as an added bonus.
