Carven. We know it, we love it, we envy the effortlessly chic minimalist sensibility of those Parisians. But fear not, multi-linguistically challenged cherubs of masculine form, because this French powerhouse is delivering Spring/Summer 2013 wares that will gel seamlessly with the pared back style of dressing that continues to take the worlds modernists by storm.

Designed for such a man, Carven Homme’s inherent attention to detail adds tenderness in the form of relaxed functionality and accompanying sensibility to the warmer months of male fashion. But keep in mind that this isn’t your average button-up, skinny-legged street slicker label. This is real, touch-it, feel-it, embrace-it-because-it’s-so-god-damn-wonderful, intelligent fashion. Delicate patterns on the finest of silk blends, manipulated by clever Carven hands to illuminate the dedication to classic design and structural knowledge for which the label has amassed an eclectically fabulous global following. Jumpers, shirt/short suiting combos, even the odd classic loafer reinvented in eye-popping hues combine to create a selection of smart, functional and modern pieces for the not-so-average modern male. We’re smitten.
