Brunello Cucinelli @ The Power of Myths & Legends FW2012 Men's Collection

Brunello Cucinelli FW2012 men's collection presents a wide range of cableknit, shaker knit, ribbed and jacquard styles in different weights: pullovers, cardigans, hoodies, and sweaters with shawl collars that can also be worn as outerwear instead of a jacket. Men can enjoy the pleasure of “dressing well” through clothes made of the finest natural raw materials and with sartorial cuts given a contemporary twist through updated fits and details. Coats and caban jackets are sleek and fitted. Even the duffle coat has been restyled and now has a more fitted, modern look.
The biker jacket, pilot jacket, caban jacket and duffle coat also come in a shearling version. The wide range of outerwear in ultra-light nappa leather or suede includes more formal silhouettes, items with a vintage look, lightweight styles, or down-filled garments to keep warm in the cold weather. Even the down jacket has a rougher, draped look or is made of knit fabric. Available in a cableknit or shaker knit version, the new down jacket is called Yule like the winter solstice, a moment rich in symbolic meaning and dominated by myths from the distant past.
 Blazers and suits come in a wide assortment of fabrics. Combed wool can be worn in any season and is suitable for more formal occasions or for work. Sportier flannel and wool cloth are ideal for mid-season, while knit-like cashmere flannel is perfect for the winter. The colour palette marks the return of blue. Navy blue or more colourful shades of blue are combined with intense natural hues such as cocoa, otter brown, and straw. Different nuances of purple (myrtle, bilberry, and amethyst), red (garnet and scarlet), and green (bay-laurel and pine) are dark and dusky. Just a touch of lead gray and lignite is used.
