"I don’t harbor any lofty ambitions or ego around innovating the state of menswear, nor do I think good design needs to be something that hits you over the head in either concept or execution. Fashion is about timing to me, more than anything, and menswear for me is about reaching into the past to re-interpret classics in a way that feels particularly fresh and relevant for right now. There’s a ton of room for innovation within that, but not the type that would necessarily impress a fashion critic or belong on a runway."

With the above in mind, I thought I'd pull some looks from the Band of Outsiders archives that I think have stood the test of time. I'll be interested to see what Scott Sternberg does with footwear this season though, surely there are only so many different ways the boat shoe can be reinterpreted.

Is it just me, or do these past two seasons (Fall 09 and Spring 10) have a real Mark Ronson for Gucci type feel?
