DKNY MEN'S Fall 2011

Donna Karan debuted her Men's collection for Fall 2011 on Tuesday, February 8, 2011 at Beauty & Essex in New York City's Lower East Side. The venue was the perfect spot for showcasing the Fall 2011 men's line.

The inspiration for the DKNY Men's line is Modern Military. The collection saw a slimmer, streamlined and more refined silhouette on some great basic pieces and sharp looking suits. The color palette was what DKNY called a "dark city palette made up of ash, concrete, pewter, charcoal and every shade of blue." I really loved the lines of the suits for Fall 2011.

The pureDKNY Fall 2011 is perfect for guys who need basic pieces and want to look put together and not super flashy. For Fall '11 pureDKNY showed colors like elephant, slate, indigo, fossil and ruby.


Above: I like the pop of color with the ruby vest.


Above: I like tend to like things that shine. Perfect way to sport up your look. This colletion is ideal for a guy's guy.


Above: I love a good stripe. I really like this look because there are so many things that you can do with each individual piece. This is a look that would look great on many types of guys.

Take a look at more pictures from the DKNY Men's Fall 2011 Show.


Above: The DNKY Men's Fall 2011 show was very high energy. The models shot out with the speed of a tweet and really forced you to pay attention to the collection.


Above: After the show the models always come out and mingle which gives everyone an opportunity to see the pieces up close. I always love how fun and casual the DKNY men's shows/presentations are.


Above: I think the sign of a good collection is when two pieces like this can stand next to each other without looking like one is out of place.

Congrats to Donna on a great showing of the Men's Fall 2011 line. I look forward to seeing what you have in store for the women in a couple of days!
