Somehow in the midst of my reviews of the 2008 graduating show of Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Antwerp I missed what could be possibly the most important menswear designer of the class. Antonin Tron’s Collection entitled “La Jetee” after one of his great inspirations a movie by Chris Marker left me close to speechless. The  lavishly designed collection may not conform to the our stark ideas of mens eveningwear but its wearibility is unquestionable for the ostentatious man of modern society. A man unafraid, if not welcoming to others judement and perceptions of himself. The loosely tailored but extremely well cut garments are made to be worn with poise and confidence and will not go innoticed despit their dark monotone palette.
