MATT DALLAS ON GOODMORING AMERICA ...

I styled Matt Dallas for this appearance. Matt's easy to dress for. He looks good in almost anything. He also has a good sense of what he likes and makes him feel comfortable at the same time he is willing to try new thing.

Here are some ways you can pull off this nerdy chic look... I'm really into this dressed up look for guys right now..

LOOKING PAST THE COVER ... i-D MAGAZINE GETS NEIL BARRETT AND SO DO I...

ID MAG ON NEIL-

" NEIL BARRETT made his name by getting on with the job. Working since the day he graduated from RCA in the late '80s, this is the man we can thank for men's minimalism, the man who men- including the likes of Justin Timberlake and Ewan McGregor- love to wear for its from-nowhere, going-somewhere aesthetic. Now an English boy in Italy for six years, Neil's nailed independent design through apprenticeships at the best of Italian stallions, Prada and Gucci, and some savvy advice from his granddad. The result? A little label taking on the brand behemoths and winning."



NEIL ON HIMSELF-

"I wear 100% Neil Barrett apart from underwear because we haven't done that properly yet. I mentally dress myself at 20, 30, 40, 50, for when I'm thin and young, for when I'm and old man, or gym-fit"




I love my friend Neil's work. I have had the privilege of seeing Neil's showroom in Milan and I can tell you first hand, Neil is taking men's fashion to the next level with taste and edge. To read more about this incredible artist pick up i-D Magazine's February issue. Also check out Neil's Myspace page here.

MILAN FASHION WRAP UP AUTUMN/WINTER 08/09...

Neil Barrett was my favorite in Milan. Neil stuck to his rocker/dapper gentleman which is so my favorite style at the moment. Neil's '08 Winter collection included extra zippers, silver painted bow ties, and beautiful leather jackets.



Vivienne Westwood is bringing back the MC Hammer pants. Lover her!



DSQUARED2 gave me plaid.



LAVIN inspiration was a boy growing up to fast. That's exactly what I got from Lucas Ossendrijver's runway show. I thought it looked like these boys were playing in their father's clothes. I got it. I liked in a way. Bravo!
