AGNES B. @ THE TENTS The iconic French designer has been making clothes “that last a lifetime” for over 40 years now and her seamless interpretations of classics-meet-streetwear have long been lauded by fans worldwide. Say bonjour to her latest men’s collection at THE TENTS this season.

BALDESSARINI @ VANGUARDS GALLERY Vanguard Gallery is pleased to welcome Baldessarini into its fold. Offering everything from jeans and accessories to suiting, this acclaimed European brand is a must-see and –buy.

BLISSKER @ PROJECT Repped in America by The Park Showroom, this German casualwear brand is making its U.S. debut this season.

Inspired by light and reflections, its spring 2017 offering includes tops, graphic tee and bottoms in an urbanfriendly black, gray and white color palette.

LORDS & FOOLS @ VANGUARDS GALLERY French designer Yoahm Baruch launched this men’s lifestyle line four years ago and its dedication to “timelessness, nobility, elegance and originality” have taken it a long way in a short time. Its selection spans everything from cutting-edge suiting pieces to jeans, all constructed in the finest fabrics.

MATSUMOTO @ PROJECT Ato Matsumoto creates a full line of clothing and footwear in his native Japan but thanks to a plug by Kayne West a few years back, his sneakers have become high-style holy grails for the in-the-know crew. Peep them and the label’s other only-from-Japan fashion treasures at PROJECT this season.

OLIBERTE @ FN PLATFORM The world’s first fair trade certified footwear factory, Oliberté produces its terrific assortment of shoes in subSaharan Africa. Its stylish collection of sneakers and boots help their wearers look great and improve the lives of the men and women who produce them.

REMO TULLIANI @ THE COLLECTIVE Produced in Italy or the U.S., the belts, sunglasses and socks from the American designer’s eponymous collection boast high-quality materials and his dedication to precision and craftsmanship. And they are comfortable to boot!

THE BEARDED HEART @ POOLTRADESHOW Brand founder Horace is all about making “Damn Fine T-Shirts” and his assortment of highly original graphic tees incorporate unique images that riff on pop-culture icons or spotlight somewhat dark themes (albeit with a sense of humor). He also makes amazing napkin sets.

VILEBREQUIN TAILORED @ MRKET The beloved brand from St. Tropez, which is best known for its oh-so smart swimwear, will debut its newest range at MRket so be sure to dive in and check it out!
