Orlando Bloom’s elfin style from Lord of the Rings has materialized in the Fall collection of Croatian, Damir Doma. The menswear designer works layers of fabric, hoods and angular cuts into this edgy, Middle-Earth look.
The focus is on black, but sand and burnt orange are also prevalent. The pants have a fresh tiered effect with a slim pant under an angular, short, chap-like layer. Scarves and drawstring details add to the relaxed earthy appeal.
I really like the impact Damir Doma brings to men’s fashion. I could see many of these looks drift over into women’s clothing.
