Umit Benan’s Balance of Suiting and Sportswear for Fall

January 20, 2011



Umit Benan presents a solid collection of classy sportswear and short-hemmed trousers, gear you'd be proud to wear on your 9-to-5, and a pair of cozy thermal undies for those with less office-oriented sartorial needs. The designer of Turkish heritage and Milanese training makes clothes that both his father and his friends could wear, bridging the generation gap with his mix of classic forms in oddball shapes and sizes. We love the sharp and thoughtful styling of shawl collar sweaters under pinstripe suit jackets, hoodies under double breasted coats and the bounty of great sports jackets. Benan also gets extra points for casting a pretty hunky Tony Ward look-alike. More images after the jump. (Via SlamxHype)
