While everyone is busy covering the Establishment during New York Fashion Week, we decided to check out New York-based American menswear designer Tim Hamilton. It wasn’t a runway show, but an up close pants-in-your-face presentation - a small army of obscenely pretty boys (seriously, are you kidding me?) on pedestals in an open studio space, turning the tables on the photographers by staring directly into their cameras. So sexy. I’m going to call it ivy league preppy gone bad seed. (Maybe gone trade.) Texture, stripes, fur, shiny things here and there, and swaths of candy colors. Tuxedo shoes, glammy fur collars, perfectly crafted skinny suits, motorcycle jackets, smoking jackets, and lots of hats. All in one collection, and all beautiful. And the knit pants! Skin tight knit pants! Damn.

Casting by Douglas Perrett. Make up by Jillian Chaitin. Hair by Ramona at Bumble and Bumble. Production by Heather Cantina and Ian Bauman at Double NY Productions. Shitty photos above by Weston
