Topman Launch New Lux Collection in March

7th March 2013 will see Topman launch their new Lux Collection - a luxurious, elegant evening look with an edge through the use of modern shapes, high end fabrics, and a sophisticated feel and finish

The overall silhouette of the collection is long and elegant in proportion while trims and fine details are luxurious in treatment and feature throughout the collection.

Super 120’s Mohair wools and brilliant blue cobalt colours feature in suiting. Shirting is predominantly white, and has a luxurious and modern feel through the use of interesting weaves and contemporary through the collar detail and finish.

 

 

 

 

Dobbie Satin and Jacquard wools with contrasting lapels and trims prevalent throughout.

 

Knitwear is seen in navy, and Lux in it’s use of fine lightweight yarn and finishing. This comes in the form of a crew neck jumper and high sheen bold coloured crew neck knitted t-shirts.

 

Timeless pieces include a full length stone mac, a black leather bomber and a black leather biker jacket (see in the first image). 

Accessories: basket weave high top trainers, a basket weave document holder and a backpack in black.
