InAisce SS 2014 - That Fashion Dude featured image

Top 6 Looks | InAisce S/S 2014

InAisce, a New York based label, has exploded onto my radar with their Spring/Summer 2014 collection full of pieces that remind me of a mixture of Robert Geller (yes, I have a sartorial boner for him) and Juun.J. This is nothing short of the highest praise I could give. Oversized yet highly tailored and a simple color palette of shades of gray and black make up this collection. As a … Continue Reading →

Top 6 Looks | Richard Nicoll S/S 2014

Richard Nicoll presented his Spring/Summer 2014 in London recently and here is what I have to say: Who gives a shit if it’s warm out? I’m still going to wear this leather! From jackets, trousers and tees, Nicoll sent more leather down the runway than on a conveyor belt at a cow factory. It was brilliant. The prints of snakes, birds and half naked men were equally sexy and comical while the styling was … Continue Reading →

Trevor Shapiro Goes to “New Heights” for That Fashion Dude

As I have mentioned before, blue has been a color men have depended even before t hey knew they needed it. Blue was also major on the Spring/Summer 2013 menswear runways and has slowly become the color I most want to see in my wardrobe. In addition to blue, a wardrobe staple, something else that every dude should own is an in your face graphic print. When done right, prints can … Continue Reading →

7 Questions With… | Swedish Music Duo W&I

Let’s talk about music, shall we? The commercial stuff that sells all over the world tends to come from the USA, the really fun stuff tends to come from the UK and the good stuff tends to come from Sweden. Don’t believe me? The Cardigans. Robyn. Tove Styrke. ABBA? Go ahead and add W&I to that list. W&I is a Swedish music duo comprised of film composers Ola Wilhelm, 29 years … Continue Reading →

Fashion Friday | Pop Out From the Crowd with This Tank

Most will not dispute that Andy Warhol is a legend and as one of the leaders in the pop art movement, many think of him whenever they see certain things like a jar of Campbell’s soup (Google it and see what’s the first image that appears). I’ll admit that I do as well and with this string of sexy weather days we’ve experienced (we’ll ignore the rain that’s been beating … Continue Reading →

Weekly Fixation | The Staves Make Breakups Sound Beautiful

When you find yourself going through a breakup or considering initiating one, you can basically put on any Adele song and then follow that with The Staves. More specifically, press play for “Facing West” which, in my opinion, is all about looking at a relationship and saying “I don’t think I can do this anymore” just as the lead singer of this sister-trio says. It’s the perfect song for when … Continue Reading →

How Awkward was the 2013 Met Gala’s Red Carpet?

Last night was the 2013 Met Gala (or Met Ball which read very much like Meat Ball on Twitter) and thanks to the red carpet livestream courtesy of Vogue, those of us not invited were able to drink in many of the night’s guests as they arrived. This year’s exhibit for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute is PUNK: Chaos to Couture and most wondered how fashion’s elite would pay homage to the … Continue Reading →


The Crave List - May 2013 - That Fashion Dude - Calvin Walker

The Crave List | Top 6 Bags for Summer Travel

As much as I hate to admit this, one day I’m going to be that dude that breezes into some high end retailer in the Meatpacking District, plops myself down on an ottoman and drops my head back wailing about how I’m whisking myself off to some foreign location for a few days with nothing to carry my things in. I’ll look at the sales associate, who will undoubtedly be screaming … Continue Reading →

Etiquette for Dropping Deuces in the Office

What happens on Monday mornings when you stroll into the office? You boot up your computer as you have a cup of coffee, try to put out any fires from over the weekend and begin laying a foundation for the remainder of the week. You’re slashing through items on your check list left and right feeling like a total bad ass headed straight for a promotion. Maybe an hour after … Continue Reading →
