4 Things the Entire Fashion World Can Learn From Men's Fashion Week Dallas

Dallas is Home to the Rise in Fashion
There was nothing mediocre about the talent displayed at Men's Fashion Week Dallas. The event hosted an emergence of ambitious designers who all presented innovative style and trendy selections. And even when they're elevating to international status on their fashion mission, they always return to Dallas.

Style and Fashion Continues Off of the Runways
Style and Fashion exists not only on the runways at fashion week. Men's Fashion Week Dallas effortlessly proved that fashion takes over all industries and style is embedded in everything that we do. Take for example the smooth ride through Downtown Dallas in a stylish and innovative Model S Tesla provided by Men's Fashion Week Dallas to its VIP guests. Not only that, but production’s top-notch eye for style provided the best venues to set the style mood.

Fashion and Food Definitely Complement One Another
Style is also in dining experience. Fine dining and cocktails at Pho House in Dallas amped the aura of the innovative fashion presentation held in the restaurant's beautiful interior. The restaurant boasted a stylish wood interior and tables, beautiful drapes, ceiling hangings, and exotic plants to set off the evening's Asiatic mood.

Street Wear is Where it Begins

The genius idea to pair Men's Fashion Week Dallas with RAW Dallas successfully showcased how "street wear" truly influences "high fashion". Designers GeGe Gilzene and SDot Haynes brought flair to Dallas' Gas Monkey Live stage with a show that appropriately mixed with the RAW Dallas atmosphere. "Street wear" is currently a major movement in the "high fashion" world and in the past few years, we have seen many iconic designers honor this fact. Kudos to Men's Fashion Week Dallas for being on track with this one!

And that's it, folks! Men's Fashion Week Dallas came to a close in collaboration with Fab Dallas Magazine Saturday night, at Dallas' stylish Aloft Hotel, the perfect scenery to complement its stylish guests and fashion-forward design presentations.

Aloft's WXYZ bar was fully accessible for guests along with tasty treats and chef-prepared food along with tunes to keep the crowd moving via an upbeat, live DJ. Photographers flooded the scene capturing the beauty of live moments as attendees mingled and mixed alongside others who came to get an obvious fashion fix.

From production to designer selection, Men's Fashion Week Dallas couldn't have ended more perfectly. Each designer presentation offered a fresh, trendy perception of fashion to the runway. Brands such as "GUAP" moved the audience to seat edge with bold and edgy designs. The collection boasted hints of tribal influence, screen printing, heavy usage of zipper embellishments, silver and gold tones, and an overall street-rock vibe. Then there was the subtle hint of fashion via "Delacreme's" masked men who sweetly and mystically offered onyx roses to audience members during a preview presentation. - See more at:

Loving It!
Thanks to Men's Fashion Week Dallas, I had the pleasure of experiencing international designer Gadol's designs yet again! Perhaps the most intriguing part of Gadol's design concept is his ability to design from one extreme to the next. While in 2012 I had the pleasure of working hands-on backstage at a fashion show with an era of Gadol's bright and bold designs, I now had the pleasure of witnessing a calmer, elegant, dapper collection of designs for the upscale male.

New to my eye, "Deferred" innovated classic male styles on the runway. Traditional suites were remixed with fur accents, lively prints, and statement blazers which complemented detailed tops. This brand is certainly one to watch and setting the tone for innovative design in men's fashion!

Men's Fashion Week Dallas 2015 certainly has the town talking and we are all looking forward to next year's fashion filled week of innovative menswear.
