Ontfront Spring 2010

Ontfront's recent spring 2010 collection titled " Tonight is the knight" presented at the just concluded Amsterdam International Fashion Week was full of theatrics and an amazing display of machismo. The models did not look like boy toys but soldiers and the metal-esque gloves they wore looked like armor for a battle.
Aside all the theatrics one with a discerning would have noticed the cuts and architectural volume of the collection. The bomber/suit jacket hybrid was a delight to see as i've always maintained that traditional mens pieces are more interesting when combined to form something new.
