S is for Synth Culture

Lately on the runways of the Spring 2008 menswear collections, I have been seeing alot of "synth culture" looks.

For those of you who don't know what that is, synth culture is the culture dominated by the love of music containing synthetic sounds.

In style, that translates to funky colors, bold accessories, and effortlessly cool flowy peices. They even perfected unisex styles.

I am going to highlight my favorite synth culture looks for the guys.

These looks can be recreated with similar peices and you can make it wintery by substituting one of the funky nylon peices, for a nice neutral cashmere top.

You can find similar accessories for better prices at stores like American Apparel and Urban Outfitters.

Spring 2008 Mens DRIES VAN NOTEN


Spring 2008 Mens FENDI


Spring 2008 Mens EMPORIO ARMANI

And these are just looks I've pulled from various websites that highlight the latest collections.

You can recreate these looks for winter by adding a scarf or even layering a sweater over one of the sheer unisex shirts.

Loveyah like a coldsore.
