THE FORMAL SHORTS

50139 Spring/Summer 2012 trends

Since last year the shorts for men have been officially declared cool and also the low-cost stores are starting to sell them. For 2012, however, they have a more elegant and formal cut, with neutral colors and a mid-thigh length instead of being just above the knee. It is an evergreen item, perfect for both day and evening.

Styling tip: balance the short cut of the shorts with a polo t-shirt for the day, and a shirt with sleeves pulled up for the evening.

OLIMPIC-SPORTY LOOK.

Summer 2012 will be clearly dominated by the London Olympics. Even if you don’t have a ticket to the myriad of sports events you can enter the Olympic atmosphere by wearing themed T-shirts.

Styling tip: avoid the total sporty look. Mix your t-shirt with shorts or jeans and a pair of sandals. Jumpsuits and sneakers are fine for the gym.

TROPICAL PRINTS

With summer comes the sun, the mood of people improves and we get a tan. The tropical prints, ranging between jungle and carnival in Rio, express the desire to be outdoors and relax and they also bring out the golden skin of summer.

Styling tip: attention to tank tops if you don’t have perfectly fitted arms and biceps and if you fear that the tropical prints make you look pale, the important thing is not to wear it close to your face, that is T-shirts and shirts, but wear them on trousers and shorts.

GLI SHORTS FORMALI

50139 Spring/Summer 2012 trends

Gia’ dallo scorso anno gli shorts sono stati ufficialmente sdoganati e anche le catene di fast fashion li hanno proposti. Per il 2012 pero’ lo short ha un taglio piu’ elegante e formale, colori neutri ed e’ a meta’ coscia invece che appena sopra il ginocchio. E’ un capo passe passepartout da indossare sia di girono che di sera.

Consiglio di styling: bilanciate il taglio corto dello short con una polo , per il giorno, ed una camicia con le maniche risvoltate o tirate su, per la sera.

LOOK OLIMPICO-SPORTIVO.

L’estate 2012 sara’ ovviamente donimata dalle Olimpiadi Londra. Anche se non avete un biglietto per la miriade di eventi ( io che sono a Londra ci ho provato dalla scorsa estate) o non siete degli sportivi, entrate comunque nell’atmosfera olimpica indossando T-shirt a tema.

Consiglio di styling: evitate il total look sportivo . Mixate la maglietta con short o jeans ed un paio di sandali. Tuta e scarpe da ginnastica vanno bene per la palestra.

STAMPE TROPICALI

Con la bella stagione, arriva il sole, l’umore migliora e chi piu’ chi meno ci si abbronza. Le stampe tropicali, tra giungla e carnevale carioca, esprimono la voglia di stare all’aria aperta e di relax e mettono in risalto la pelle dorata dal sole.

Consiglio di styling: attenzione alla canotta se non avete braccia e bicipiti in forma e se temete che la stampa tropicale ‘sbatta’ troppo, l’importante e’ non indossarla vicino al viso, ovvero T-shirts e camicie, ma indossre pantaloni e shorts.
