Etro's man dreams of taking flight in feathered fashion for next winter

Designer Kean Etro employed feathers from tip of his fedora hats to the toe of his velvet slippers in the menswear collection previewed Monday, the third day of Milan Fashion Week.

Etro turned convention on its head, opening the show with evening wear, featuring such clever interpretations as tuxedo tails adorned with feathers. Jackets also appeared in velvet — a clear Milan trend for next winter — with feathered lapels.

As the collection moved into day wear, the use of feathers became even more bold. A jacket of golden and orange feathers evoked a sunrise. An eye-popping patchwork vest of pink, black and orange feathers could easily be worn beneath Joseph's amazing Technicolor dream coat. And a red tailcoat was feathered behind in orange, peacock blue and black.

Etro said the aims was for classical looks to take flight, calling the collection "a proposal for life, soaring high and seeing the every day as a celebration of beauty."

Like other designers, Etro is offering a broad range of outerwear, including trenches, down vests and a paisley-printed explorer jacket with multitudes of outer pockets.

The overall look was heavy on the tribal, with patterns inspired by Native Americans appeared on the backs of jackets.
