Sharm's Fashion Review for Men
A RANDOM list of menswear for Spring 2011. Fashion shows in Milan suggest that style guys should be on the alert for:
- Pencil thighs shrink-wrapped in Jeggings (jeans so tight they look like leggings)
- Lug-soled shoes with inset espadrille rope soles
- Boat-neck sweaters in colors from the sorbet bin at the ice cream counter like watermelon, mango, pistachio or aqua, mint and almond
- Unlined short-sleeved safari jackets
- And more!

Spanx for Men!
"Men's Shapewear is a Retail Hit. Stores are Selling Out!"
|
| In a May 28th article, "Men's 'Shapewear' is a Retail Hit,"
Catherine
Saint Louis of nytimes.com
quoted
Nickelson Wooster, the men's fashion director at Neiman Marcus, on the
subject of Spanx (compression undergarments, aka, shapewear) for men:
"We are selling them as quickly as Spanx can make them." Neiman Marcus
was until recently the only department store carrying them. (This month
Spanx for Men arrived in Bloomingdale's, Saks Fifth Avenue and Nordstrom, and at Web
sites like freshpair.com.) "Men
may not be talking about it, but they're buying it." - Nickelson
Wooster, on nytimes.com.
Here's what they reportedly do for men (according to spanx.com):
* Firms chest
* Flattens stomach
* Improves posture
* Supports lower back
There was one warning in the article:
"Spanx for Men is all good, until you meet a chick," one skeptic warned
on Twitter. "You
gain 45 lbs when you get naked."
