Wax London is ready for the summer with the launch of their new seasonal collection. After a decade of making London one of the most fashionable places on Earth, the Wax London Spring and Summer 2025 celebrates the love of an American road trip. “As we enter our 10th year, I feel proud of where we are and the journey we have been on so far,” says Tom Holmes, Founder and Creative Director of Wax London. “Wax has grown so much since its inception. We have built an incredible group of talented individuals; none of this would be possible without them. The dedicated work from the team has resulted in something I am truly proud to present: It is our strongest Spring offering to date, and our coinciding campaign reflects that. The brand has continued to evolve, and I am excited about what 2025 has in store for us and our community.”

This season, Wax unveils a more refined tailoring. Pure linen suits are reimagined in vivid summer brights and deep, saturated hues for a deeper and more varied summer tailored wardrobe. Jackets are designed with a relaxed fit, soft shoulder construction, and half lining, offering a contemporary, unstructured feel. Adding a touch of playful refinement, Wax’s signature one-button cuff injects character into this timeless formalwear staple. The brand released a three-part short film about a couple driving blissfully across the California vista dressed in all Wax London to go along with the collection.

Wicked Director Jon Chu wears custom made from exclusive members only brand

The most exclusive luxury menswear makes an appearance at the Oscars

The 97th Academy Awards was a show stopped by Adrian Brody's acceptance speech that beat the record for the longest ever, and Kieran Culkin reminding his wife that she agreed to have four children with him if he ever won an Oscar. While Brody beat out the likes of Timothee Chalamet, Sebastian Stan, Ralph Fiennes, and Coleman Domingo and Culkin beat out Edward Norton, Guy Pierce, and Jeremy Strong, we had our eyes keenly planted on Wicked Director Jon Chu and his custom dinner jacket made by one of the most exclusive luxury menswear brands in all of Hollywood: NB44.
Only 44 lucky members as of now

Wicked is one of the year's biggest phenomenons. After years on the stage, the Wizard of Oz prequel finally made it to the big screen and landed ten nominations, including Best Actress (Cynthia Erivo), Best Supporting Actress (Ariana Grande), Editing, and Best Picture. The winning nomination paid tribute to the best costuming of the year, and Chu led the charge with one of the best looks on the red carpet. Of course, he wore green, which paid homage to his Best Actress nomination, but that isn't the only thing that made this dinner jacket stand out. It is a custom piece from NB44, one of the most exclusive LA brands. Launched by Nicolas Bijan, only members get access to his exclusive three or four collections a year. While you can apply to be an addition to the small 44-member brand, it costs a cool twelve grand just for access. No matter the cost, Jon Chu's was the best red carpet costume, making the twelve grand almost worth it.

An expert from Moose Knuckles explains this year’s long coat obsession

Industry expert helps us with the long winter coat

man in long coat

When I walked around New York City throughout the month of February, I noticed a trend that seemed to overtake the entire island of Manhatten: The men's long winter coat. Around every corner during New York Men's Day and New York Fashion Week were puffer coats extending all the way to the mid-shins or lower. While the Big Apple is one of the colder big cities, I was surprised to see a melting pot of a city entirely overtaken by one overwhelming trend. In an attempt to understand the phenomenon, I reached out to Ryan Lewis, Director of Community & Culture at Moose Knuckles, one of the brands with the most significant footprint among the bundled-up masses.
Why the long coat?

The key to wearing a coat and remaining stylish is to strike a balance between something fashionable and something functional. You need to be protected from the winds, rains, snows, and ice, but that doesn't mean you can't look as good as you feel. Lewis believes that is partially what drove that explosion this season.

Vince. wants you to leave an OOO ‘Gone Fishin’

Get the gone fishin' vibe with Vince.

Vince Gone Fishin

Growing up, there was always a surefire sign that spring was on the way. Of course, the weather would change, and I would put the sweaters away and break out the summer wardrobe, but there was another more instinctual sign. Like it was some kind of sixth sense, my father and my grandfather would begin to dress as if they were an hour away from hooking up the boat and heading out to the lake or the river for the fishing season. While I may not be saying you should start wearing your father or grandfather's fishing vest with extra fishhook and lures, Vince. has a new focus this spring. The Vince 'Gone Fishin' line is an elevated version of what my father and grandfather would salivate over every year.
Complete with the loafers

Any good fishing ensemble the men and women in my family wore as they left for the fishing boat included a pair of breathable cargo pants. The cotton-linen cargo pants are perfect for the day on the lake. The natural fibers breathe, and the extra storage is just what any good fisherman needs. Pair those cargo pants with a good, short-sleeve button-up, and you have the look any good fisherman has in his closet. Vince. has a good collection of short-sleeve button-ups to choose from, but their 100% hemp option is perfect for the day on the water. Finally, no good fishing outfit would be good without the perfect loafer. While they have a couple of great options, picking up their jelly sandals is the perfect finishing touch to get you ready for fishing season.
