Though this marks only his second menswear collection, Nicholas Petrou is clearly unafraid of statement-making designs. The Petrou\Man presentation on Monday took inspiration from Odysseus, and explored the idea of modern nomadism . Petrou’s Central St. Martin’s training was present in every sharply tailored seam, but instead of using traditional materials for his suiting, Petrou used modern fabrics like microfiber, nylon, metallic painted leather, and hand-dyed tartan jersey wool. In homage to the nomad, many of the pieces were hand embellished. An incredible blazer modeled by Cole Mohr that was emblazoned with over 7,000 safety pins which, from a distance, gave the illusion of metallic fur. With the help of stylist Robbie Spencer, each model wore a custom hat that was envisioned to represent shelter and home. While comfort and respite may have been the vision, the effect was pretty wild.
