But what you see here, she said, is her first full and standalone menswear collection.
She will hold a show at womenswear in a few weeksso why none to launch this?
It really wouldnt have been.

This collection, to be released in three phases June through August, was remarkably cogent yet impressively broad.
Which leads nicely to the denim.
For me, however, it was the articulated knee cut that was especially fresh in this selection.

Serre was also wisely circumspect about where and how to use and not overuseher powerful crescent moon logo.
Accessories included daintily jaunty bowling bags and more rugged models inspired by mail bags.
Said Serre: I just think they bring something elegant, refined and unusual today.
