NYFW: Ovadia & Sons SS14
Shimon and Ariel Ovadia, the twin brothers and designers of the three-year-old brand Ovadia & Sons, held their first New York Fashion Week presentation yesterday, which included 26 looks from their spring/summer 2014 collection.
Known for their traditional dress apparel (suits, shirts and ties) and range of basic colors, the brothers proved their versatility with fashions that could go from day to night, and the introduction of the stand out, and very popular (check your Instagrams for #ovadiaandsons), Neoprene motorcycle jackets:
The Ovadia and Sons’ color palette featured black, white and blues with hints of green and tan. Along with the moto jacket, other features of the collection included an indigo denim suit, floral printed shorts and trousers, two-panel sweaters, paint-splattered pants in olive, and various single- and double-breasted jackets:

NYFW: Richard Chai’s Soft Geometrics For SS14
One of the first big shows to start New York Fashion Week at the Lincoln Center’s tents, Richard Chai‘s Spring/Summer 2014 collection. The show marked the debut of a collaboration between Chai and the leather goods brand, Andrew Marc, on a range of leather jackets and shoes.
Chai’s collection was inspired from soft geo shapes, and for the men’s wear, that translated to seersucker blazers, plaid and pleated shorts, oversized trousers and striped tops. There was a strong use of the essential black, white and blues, but the mustardy shade of cognac on a couple of looks stood out when they emerged.
See the entire men’s collection below,:

Ditch the solid trunks this Labor Day weekend and go for bold prints or patterns. Palm Springs meets New England with this look featuring Mr Turk in Greenwich, CT’s Tod’s Point; a beach/park and marina that is must if you’re ever in Fairfield County.
Here on a bright, breezy day, Tom models one of Mr Turk’s latest swimwear designs, the safari board shorts, paired with a mini houndstooth patterned short sleeve button down.
