Giovanni Cattleya Fall 2015 Presentation #NYFW #SuitePR

Giovanni Cattleya presented his Fall 2015 presentation on February 12th, 2015 to media and buyers. After checking in, we were escorted upstairs to a room full of snacks and on-the-go drinks . A nice touch on the PR's part for providing nutrition --- On  a long day ahead for us, press folk. Feb, 12th was the official start of NYFW. Giovanni Cattleya was my first presentation of the day. We made our way from the snack room to the room next door, showcasing nine looks --- including  his twist on the classic tux with a chained vest to a coat with the Matelassé fabric . Which was a reminiscent of the Gucci Wool Equestrian Coat , but with added buttons on both sides.

I chatted with Giovanni briefly on the collection and this being his second collection, he was ecstatic about the press approval of the line. I happily  mentioned the printed pants -- which is  one of my favorite looks of the collection. He told me the pants are unisex, worn by both men and women. I would of course style the pants differently!

My conclusion? A modified Wild West meets the Old School British (Men) Style.
