The recent show for 'Default' by James May is probably the only fashion show that I wish I had front row tickets for. The gearhead and toy fanatic of Top Gear fame debuted his new "clothing line" designed to simplify men's fashion.
'Default' by James May consists primarily of jumpsuits that can be modified if the situation calls for it. The modifications include sleeves that rip away in an instant and a fancy ruffled shirt that can be ripped away in a flash if the fancy party you're at suddenly becomes a bit more casual. May's foray into fashion doesn't seem to be too serious, as the cameras for his show Man Lab were rolling throughout the 'Default' fashion show. Still, May may be onto something here. Those jumpsuits in the video sure do look comfortable.
