YOOX Picks: Gianfranco Ferre Clothing

We’ve found some interesting Gianfranco Ferre clothing at YOOX that offers a unique twist on classic contemporary styles that are worth considering. Ferre isn’t chic at the moment, but that is exactly why you should consider picking up a few pieces for your wardrobe. In words of Warren Buffet: “The time to get interested is when no one else is.” Take advantage of Ferre’s luxurious materials and bit eccentric styles that are more mature and evolved than you’ll find from some other labels. Men’s attire from Gianfranco Ferre is tricky to find online, so we thought this would be the perfect opportunity to showcase a designer offering something different from what you’d find in most men’s publications.

This interesting linen blazer in white has two coat pockets at the bottom and a shirt pocket on the right that set it apart from any other blazer you’ve ever worn. The laid back attitude and confidence that is conveyed in this jacket makes it a must have for your collection.

This brown nappa leather jacket takes you back to better times, particularly the early nineties when leather jackets were all the rage. This one is lot more sophisticated, has classic black buttons, and an internal pocket.

Here is a cool suede leather jacket in the style of those cotton windbreakers we used to wear all the time. Two internal pockets with a partially lined interior make this jacket a bit more practical.

We’ve seen this polo shirt before from other designers, but none quite as serious as this one from Ferre. It also comes with a zip-front, as opposed to the buttons you see on everyone else’s polo shirt, which we absolutely love. Remember Buffet?

There’s nothing like a great white cotton blazer; you’re the focus of attention as soon as you walk into a crowded room. Particularly when you can find one greatly constructed and at such great price as this one.
