3.1 Phillip Lim, Menswear FW11/12

Crisp lines, structured concepts & progressive design are elements seen in the FW11/12 3.1 Phillip Lim Menswear Collection. After a design debut in 2005, Lim was praised as a 'Rising Star' by the Fashion Group International & received an award after debuting to rave reviews from Fashion elite in New York City. With no stops in between, 2006 proved to be another great year, as Lim won the Vogue Fashion Fund. His victory allowed him to showcase his vision much more accurately & soon after the Council of Fashion Designers of America's (CFDA) awarded Lim the Swarovski Womenswear Designer of the Year award. An honored award to receive.   

As clearly translated in the collection seen above, the 3.1 Phillip Lim signature is contemporary & modern with incredible combination of casual style crossed with high-end sensibility. Use of Wool & Leather allow the collection to create a stronger fall feel, appropriate for the season. In fashion, themes of minimalism are seen all across the board, from menswear to womenswear; the Phillip Lim label has become a leader in this movement, representing the future of American style & a new era of design in New York City. Precise tailoring, superb style & dope design have been an underlying theme for the Lim label since it's debut. A clear vision of fearless design is translated through each look as style is felt in every detail down to the seam.
