Harry Rosen unveils their Fall/Winter 12 Preview

06.21.2012

Harry Rosen preview events are always fantastic because they give a gorgeous glimpse into the next season’s vision. Among the strategically placed mannequins and freshly polished shoes on the second floor of the Royal Conservatory of Music, I was expecting to discover a great seasonal find. Sadly the great finds didn’t quite make it to the preview. According to the buying team they struck menswear gold and the good stuff is hurdling towards their Bloor Street store for August. This year the Harry team once again chose to feature Lanvin, Tom Ford, Versace and John Varvatos shoes as the less conservative labels for their theme of ‘high-end heritage.’
What’s high-end heritage? Think English country manors, fox hunting, and high tea. I know you are rolling your eyes and thinking even Madonna gave up that look after she dumped Guy Ritchie. Yes it has been done to death, but what if their version mixed a great Etro shirt, under a studded Versace cardigan worn with velvet Tom Ford pants? Now I’ve got your interest.
So why should you shop at Harry Rosen this fall when the Prince-Charles-conservatism-and-country-quaint look is so not you? Heritage doesn’t necessarily mean staunch or boring. The great thing about Harry Rosen is there is so much to chose from, like Madonna, one can reinterpret this concept and make it your own. — Max MacDonald

      @JoeI will be turning 24 so I was just a kid when the Rangers won the cup in 94`. I just do not think he is enetrtaining at all and I can understand why you older fans like him. Rosen has a long history with the Rangers but it is time for things to change. Get someone young and exciting in there with a charismatic voice. Maybe its time for a different commentator to be there when the Rangers win the cup again.

      So download aenohtr file and convert it to the appropriate file using a converter.That's what I do.Edit: Oh, and to you who thinks that a Kindle is a burden: This technology does compliment everyday life. The Kindle is not this magical technological doo-dad that eliminates the need for books because it provides constant entertainment.It's a freaking electronic book, idiot. Perhaps if you'd ever seen one or looked at it, you'd realize it was a book. I can fit more books on my Kindle now than I can fit in my entire house. I don't have to lug around a big book anymore when I go to work or school. The screen looks just like paper and ink, so it isn't a back-lit screen with major moving images. It gives you text and printed images.And I'm an English teacher! I have nothing but praise for it. So, before you run your mouth (or keyboard) about how stupid something is, perhaps you should investigate it for yourself.
