G-Star’s shift from overtly branded<br />
commercial product to more subtle,<br />
design led pieces that draw upon<br />
the brand’s varied back catalogue<br />
continues apace in 2011. The fall<br />
collection replaces bold colours and<br />
loud logos with understated detailing,<br />
minimalist branding and fantastic<br />
fabrics. The range references obvious<br />
military influences which are reflected<br />
in the khaki overshirts and heavy duty<br />
bomber jackets. The detailing on these<br />
pieces is absolutely standout; bias cut<br />
pockets, worn in fabrics and slimline<br />
cuts combine to great effect and are<br />
truly reminiscent of classic G-Star<br />
designs from the past.<br />
Americana influences shine through<br />
across the collection as well. Look<br />
out for chunky checked shirts and<br />
straight legged worker style denims.<br />
More modernist styles are available in<br />
the form of high gloss ‘puffa’ jackets<br />
and hooded overshirts in rough and<br />
ready fabrics. Essentially G-Star has<br />
something for everyone in this varied<br />
collection. Branding has been toned<br />
down across the range but those of you<br />
in need of a classic hoody or tee will<br />
be impressed with the ‘ghostwritten’<br />
logo that debuts this season and the<br />
varsity style crew necks that’ve been<br />
flying off the shelves.<br />
As you’d expect, denim remains a<br />
mainstay within the collection. We’ve<br />
focused on top half within this spread<br />
but you can check out a couple of key<br />
styles on our online blog. Alternatively<br />
nip into your local G-Star store where<br />
our team of denim experts will be more<br />
than happy to find you the perfect<br />
jeans for your shape and style.<br />
