Every summer, what is the first thing that comes to people’s mind? “I need to plan for upcoming summer vacation!” “Where to go?’ and most importantly “what to wear for a resort wardrobe?” Well, Bugatchi has got your summer wardrobe all covered for men planning their vacation wardrobe.
September 8th, 2023, during the kickoff of New York Fashion Week in Bugatchi’s studio-like upper-east side showroom. Designer Anthony Keegan showed his Spring/Summer 2024 collection, with giving men the opportunity to travel for an upcoming vacation in style but also being as comfortable as possible. That’ s the purpose of dressing up for a vacation! so why can’t men have the opportunity also to dress in style while stepping away from the reality of work life just as easy as women can. The inspiration for this collection came from Keegan’s fond memories of going on vacation with his family as a child, as he would sit in the back of his family’s station wagon and would anticipate the next stop in their travels. While instead of sitting in the back of a dusty station wagon, this collection with easy mobility silhouette brings the perspective for men sipping on a cocktail at a local seaside resort on a tropical island.
As for the aesthetic overall, it brings in a youthful approach while not being too cliché at the same time as the collection consists of leather like bomber jackets, linen blazers and sport shirts that gives both comfortability and being able dress sharp. This collection was to “Illustrate the beauty of the journey” Keegan told WWD and the collection illustrated this in the way of the carefully chosen color palettes of dusky but yet soft colors ranging from dusty rose and sea foam to different shades of blues. Which overall played very nicely with giving men both a youthful and sophisticated touch without looking to blah.
To all you gentlemen getting ready for your upcoming vacation to a tropical resort and want to pack your suitcase with a sophisticated but yet not too simple wardrobe to sit at a bar and drink a cocktail to get away from the office. Don’t walk or run but fly to purchase your vacation wardrobe from Bugatchi Spring/Summer 2024 collection.

On Monday, October 16, 2023, Shanghai Fashion Week was wrapping up to a close. British fashion designer Stella McCartney returns for the first time to show her latest collection which she previously showed at Paris Fashion Week. This is her first return to SFW since 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused a slight pause in the SFW runway shows for a couple of years until recently.
McCartney had previous ties to SFW when she partnered with Chinese fashion designer Shie Lyu in 2019. McCartney bringing her brand internationally to China, this is an opportunity for her brand to make its presence in the fashion industry in China as the country has been redefining its focus more towards innovation and more sustainably focused.
The theme for this year’s Shanghai Fashion Week was ‘Synergy’ where the idea was to present a connection between the past and the future, both domestic and international influences, the industry insiders and outsiders while touching on fashion technology and sustainability. So, this opportunity was perfect for Stella McCartney to reintroduce her sustainable fashion brand into the spotlight of the Chinese fashion industry audience.
Stella McCartney is highly recognized in the fashion industry for her strong advocacy for sustainable fashion and has worked alongside textile innovator companies. McCartney is known to design garments with the focus of using non-traditional textiles such as Spider silk or mushroom leather instead of using traditional textiles such as polyester which is known to be one of the most polluting textiles in the fashion industry.
McCartney being one of the starring international designers to show at SFW for the first time since the pandemic. She intended to present her collection with a clear and straightforward message to those who were seeing her collection down the runway.
