TANO at London Collections Men

er Styles Rocker: (gushes, breathlessly)  It makes the other elements look even more fashionable and beguiling.  It's the top model among the plethora of fedoras at Men's Fashion Week. Admittedly I LOVE all LCM fedora hats, but this one, melts my heart; multiple times; it's undoubtedly the most, achingly immersive hat, I have EVER seen, on the London Collections: Men scene.  SS17

The designer walking the sidewalk at London Collections: Men is TANO. He’s from France and Ivory Coast and studies Graphic Design. Steal his chaotically cool style by teaming an achingly immersive fedora by Bates Hatters with other heroic elements; Pharrell Williams and Adidas sneakers, Reiss tailored trousers, Armani T shirt, Balmain for H&M sweater, Burberry blazer.

er Styles Rocker: (swoons, rhythmically) Oh my gosh! I'm in LOVE - with this achingly delicious LCM outfit; such hypnotizing elements. Look! The DEFINITIVELY cool #fedora hat is the main reason. In my book, it's the fedora of Men's Fashion Week, unquestionably. Just saying. Fedoras are my favorite piece in any ground-breaking ensemble; they are always an outfit's glory. Little wonder, I tremble; I simply can't wait to speak with you about this success story. It resembles a deity. I am mesmerized by the beauty; the design; simply jaw-dropping. Hence, my clapping.

TANO: I'm a graphic designer. And, erm, I'm into Fashion.

er Styles Rocker: Great choice; it's my ultimate passion. So I LOVE Ivory Ivory Coast, I LOVE France. Most importantly, I absolutely LOVE you style today.

TANO: (peers over his outfit, grabs either side of the blazer, strike a pose, proudly)

er Styles Rocker: The designs are super bombastic; just the way we like it. Every aspect is so effortless and appealing. What an entrance it has made. I am ethereally entrance. The WHOLEsome Fashion Week set is, CLEARLY,  in a stupor, a trance. That's the kind of sartorial aesthetic that I admire so much that I always it rock myself and also curate at London Collections: Men. I am HIGHLY drawn to the super cool elements; particularly that chaotically BLOOMING fedora hat. I hope it's not the one one you got because I have designs on it.

TANO: (no response, strikes a pose)

er Styles Rocker: I am, understandably, HIGHLY keen on discovering your inspiration behind what you are wearing. Why did you choose these clothes when you planned your Men's Fashion Week outfit?

TANO: I was inspired...by FRANCE (beams with pride) France, really...The trends in France...I try to mix it with the street-style..I'm wearing the Adidas sneakers for Pharrel Williams...

er Styles Rocker:...Yes, Pharrel Williams - Adidas. What collaboration! Amazing. And that fedora hat! What fashion brand is it?

TANO: Brands?

er Styles Rocker: Yes.

TANO: Hang on to either side of blazer) This, actually - Balmain for H&M...This collaboration occurs few months ago.

er Styles Rocker: Balmain! H&M! A stupendous collaboration

TANO: This (trousers) is Reiss

er Styles Rocker: What an AMAZING cut. it cheers me up.  Well done, Reiss. I have a wicked Reiss blazer in my capsule collection…Last but not least, that fedora...

TANO:...This is Burberry (refers to the blazer)

er Styles Rocker: That blazer is something special, it ignites in the spotlight, Like an terrestrial inferno, it blazes,  the details on the arm are something else; so pulsating, they are raising my pulse...

er Styles Rocker: There is nothing more thrilling to put your hand into, right now. It's super fullfilling!

TANO: Since I start my, erm...Since I finish, my studies, so now I have time...

TANO: Future! I LOVE his hats, man! They fit him so well. And he really knows how to rock it.

er Styles Rocker: Future! Sounds like he's the future of the fashion forward aesthetic. What can I say! I think Future would be super proud of you, his sartorial protege. You definitely demonstrate that you can rock this one, your only one, just as well, as the man himself. You nailed the aesthetic, boldly and most importantly, BEAUTIFULLY. You should be proud of yourself. I LOVE these elements, right...

LV Huang: Yes. What did I say?
..
DANDY:That blouse, looks divine. It's far better...I am happy to see the gem of all gems, I want that for myself, but I'm crestfallen you will NOT part with it. I did not realize it at them time, but I'm sure it's the main reason why I'm at #fashionweek today. Stern nuns could not resist the temptation to lust after that...What the most interesting place you did your shopping for this fashion event?

LV Huang: I rummaged a designer boutique in China
....
DANDY: Your effort really paid off...I REALLY love those shoes. I'll flirt with the pair of them but never fight. Those are so perfect, there is no aspect of them that requires a makeover; They're super cool, exciting. What was your inspiration for this aesthetic?

LV Huang: Normally, this is how I dress. This look is not inspired; it's simple, chic...I don't like complicated decorations(accessories)
....
DANDY: I like your minimalist style. That bag is amazing and the colour is amazing. No surprise, it's a Céline
element. I want that. We'd LOVE to showcase it in the Gallery of Sidewalk Darlings. It will be a hit with visitors. That stylish beauty has knocked me out.

LV Huang: Thanks

DANDY: I can't find words to describe this ULTRA stunning skirt; sequins not necessary; it's a true, complete hottie. I love the sound of music but i adore that gorgeous accessory. Nice skirt, indeed! That deserves all the YESes in the world. I LOVE it so much. I bet it means alot to you; it means ALOT to me; I'd LOVE to wake up with it staring at me from the closet.

London Collection: Men, aka Men's #Fashion Week, #LCM

IMPECCABLY clad in a statement #REISS #jacket, hero Topman shirt and hat, signature NEXT slim tie and his trademark DOCKERS boots, Eddie, aka the emerging Sidewalk Playboy, from #TVsidewalk, was incessantly hand-picked, (for you know what) firstly by PAUSE magazine. London Collection: Men, aka Men's #Fashion Week, #LCM.


Photography by PAUSE magazine. Oh, Zokaya's umbrella is by Francesco Maglia. I know it's a beauty but please...stop staring at it.

#EDDIE
The Casely-Hayford catwalk will start in minutes, so you'll have to be quick, I'm afraid.

#Deschanel

Okay...How do you normally prepare for Men's Fashion Week?

EDDIE
Shopping for new clothes to wear

Deschanel

You must have too many clothes then. Time to do some culling?


EDDIE
(laughs)

Too many clothes? I have LOTS of clothes, not too many clothes. I just need a bigger wardrobe. My clothes are scattered all over my room. But I still think it's impossible to have too many clothes...London Fashion Week will be on in February, so when London Collection: Men is over, I'll be shopping for more new clothes to wear to that event.

Deschanel

My gosh! What are you gonna do with all these clothes you have been accumalating?

EDDIE
(drooling)
I will always love them. I only buy clothes that I am obsessed with, so it's HARD to part with them. I believe in true love, you see. I'm saving them. Hopefully, someday they will be featured in the Sidewalk Museum

Deschanel

Oh, like David Bowie!

EDDIE
His #style exhibition at Victoria and Albert museum was hot.

Deschanel

Do you wear every piece of clothing you purchase for fashion events

EDDIE
I would say most of them. I tend to wear the ones I love the most, more frequently.


Deschanel

Strike a pose!
