Antonio Azzuolo Spring 2012

There was a certain ease to the models in looks by Antonio Azzuolo; comfortable looking models could only mean one thing, they're well fed, or the clothes feel great. Mr. Azzuolo's Spring collection has a certain nautical quality, but still managing to keep it super chic with white pants and blue blazers, and super chic double-breasted blazers and tuxedos with white buttons. This collection has the right amount of fashion-foward interest, but still manages to have an ease. 

Antonio Azzuolo

With a Hermès and Ralph Lauren pedigree, Antonio Azzuolo knows what makes an outfit suitable for a conservative man with a dash of cork. I've noticed that a few designers are making clothes with a flow-y quality, but I am absolutely in to Mr. Azzuolo's skinny pants and jackets. The Canadian designer really shows his true designer-colors by redefining proportions; his offbeat way of pairing shirts and pants and jackets causes interest with a finer way of dressing. And he is not the first designer this year to offer some long-johns... and they are becoming more and more appealing to me. On a side note, I would also like to thank Mr. Azzuolo along with the people at Bradbury Lewis for inviting me to this show, I was unable to attend, but GQ.com kept me up on all the good stuff.
