Gatsby summer

MANILA, Philippines - Keep it light in Pierre Cardin’s pastel-colored separates for men. Stay cool in French fashionable and easy-to-wear pieces, committed as the brand is to bring fashion to the streets, just as its founding designer revolutionized the style of menswear. Parisian in its styling, the contemporary men’s brand offers a complete mix of merchandise for men who are casual, dressy and everything in between.

To keep the look mannish, stick to one key pastel piece in any of the season’s hues: avocado green, pale yellow, periwinkle or ice blue. Then pair with khaki bottoms, or a white button-down, as the case maybe. If you’re going to put two blocks of color together — say, with a powder blue windbreaker and periwinkle pants — make sure they’re in the same color family, in this case, both cool hues derived from blue.

The mantra is to keep things light, and so it goes with your layering technique. If you’re wearing a tie — a sorbet colored one, at that — skip the blazer. If you’re wearing Pierre Cardin jacket, skip the tie, and keep the top button undone. Or be unpredictable and pair it with a simple three-button polo shirt.

Look for minor details like white ribbing or shirts, or cargo pockets on shorts — the last a utilitarian feature that’s just in line with summer’s active vibe.

It’s summer, after all: keep things casual and sleek in Pierre Cardin. The most temperature-raising hotties also happen to be the coolest cats, after all.

Pierre Cardin is located at Cinderella Lucky Chinatown, SM Megamall, SM Fairview, SM North EDSA, Robinsons Ermita, Glorietta 3, SM Mall of Asia, Virra Mall, Abreeza Davao, Alabang Town Center and Festival Mall, and inside Landmark TriNoma and Makati, SM Makati Department Store, and Robinsons Ermita Department Store.
