L.B.M. 1911 – Fall/Winter 2013

L.B.M. 1911 is a part of the Italian menswear brand Lubiam. The chances are that the majority of you, at least here in America, haven’t heard of the brand, and I feel the need to share it with you, because its beauty is simply captivating. Especially their current lookbook is literally one of the best I have seen, in terms of clothing, styling and photography. Lubiam is a very traditional brand that offers tailored clothing. L.B.M. 1911 takes on the younger perspective within the Lubiam realm. Slimmer fits, more daring patterns, brighter colors. What you saw above are a handful of my favorites from their Fall 2013 collection – we have lots of plaids in a variety of scales, which I believe are a very strong pattern for this season. In addition, I picked out two solid blazers, which stand out due to the beautiful choice in fabric. Very heavy weaves, with touches of a used appearance create a casual sophistication that will draw your eye immediately. Their trademark is the white lapel pin, which is a subtle, yet distinctive detail. With every collection, they also come out with a capsule of outerwear. My favorite was a puffy, red melange hooded jacket, with a bright blue contrasting interior.

Overall, I hope you could see, and understand after reading, why this brand is so special. If you wanna see which blazer I chose, and how they look on a body (let me give it away right now: amazingly, even without any padding, because the construction is impeccable) just click right here.
