Fun With GUESS & Marciano
Expect more fun with color from GUESS and Marciano for spring 2014. Color permeated the showroom and was best expressed in this multicolor display of jumper shorts (above). Several years ago, I would have looked at this collection and thought it belonged in the tweens section, or that I was far too, *cough*, mature to pull it off, but color is so important now that I can no longer make those kind of assumptions.
The fun stuff wasn't just limited to color however. GUESS and Marciano showed their playful side in denim with lumberjack checks, bejeweled pockets, patches and distressing on women's jeans. It reminded me of the '80's and 90's when we used to customize our jeans with paint, patches and charms. Now I can't help but look forward to the possible return of those days.
GUESS guys were a little more subdued than the women. Instead of bright color, unique coatings were used instead to add interest to men's jeans. As for the rest of the collection, this guy still goes for edge over play.
