Pitti Uomo Day Two: L'Altro Uomo (The Alternative Man)

After an evening punctuated by muscular Tuscan wine, animated conversations and sharp deluges of rain, the Fashion Buyer team arose in remarkably fresh spirits this morning from our hideout in Piazza Santa Maria Novella.
Under murky skies we've arrived at the Fortezza da Basso with a single pursuit in mind - pounding the trend-led menswear halls in a bid to uncover the sharpest directions for spring 2011. If yesterday was dedicated to establishing the ss11 personality for the more established tailoring-led brands, today will find us investigating what's in store from the world's most exciting artisan-led fashion names, from Nigel Cabourn and Engineered Garments both holed-up in the L'Altro Uomo hall, to Haversack and Yuketen in the Touch hall.
Make sure you take another look at the Fashion Buyer blog later today for a half-time trends round-up.Source URL: http://icip2idayusof.blogspot.com/2010/06/pitti-uomo-day-two-l-uomo-alternative.html
