The Kings of Carnaby FW 2012 collection is a sartorially focused curation of flirtatious apparel. Featuring both men and women's wear, the line is precisely tailored and mod. The look is slightly vintage, borrowing from 60s sky-high hem lines and skinny suits. While retro, the detailing incorporated into the line is highly modern. The men's ties are intensely skinny, juxtaposed with heavy boots and tweeds.
Designers Michael Lamacchia and Nick Tologlou have shared a passion for vintage fitting apparel since their high school years. They founded Kings of Carnaby in tribute to John Stephen who led the 1960s male peacock revolution. The duo finds inspiration in old-school prep wear and English subcultures.
The Kings of Carnaby FW 2012 is youthful and spunky, perfect for the fashion junky with a lot of attitude.
