BWW Reviews: Beyond the Hype with CONTEMPORARY MENSWEAR
BWW Reviews: Beyond the Hype with CONTEMPORARY MENSWEAR
March 30, 2015

In crafting their book, the editors of Contemporary Menswear (Thames & Hudson, 2014) have done everything possible to avoid everything easy and obvious about their topic. Fun exercise: flip through and see if you can find a single mention of Tom Ford, or Michael Kors, or Kanye West. I had no luck with these, but I did locate Nick Wooster (after a lot of trying) and Ralph Lauren (right in the introduction, but as an example of the kind of brand that the book won't be talking about). There are good reasons why the usual big names are so far removed. After all, it is the declared purpose of editors Steven Vogel, Nicholas Schonberger, and Calum Gordon to create a book that 'sets out to cut through the PR gloss of so much fashion writing.'
