Seasons:
Band of Outsiders

The Look: Band's hallmark of polished prep and casual dishevelment. The key piece was tuxedo sweatpants lined in terrycloth.

Styled by: Designer, Scott Sternberg.

Spotted: Kanye West, sporting a pair of Band of Outsider for Sperry boots.

The Music: Selections from various soundtracks, from Magnolia to Amelie.

In his own words: "I didn't set out to do it, but the collection turned out to be slightly more pared down, which made it a lot of fun to put the looks together. More real, you know?"

  • Scott's favorite shoe? The trompe l'oeil style rubber top-siders.

The Look: A sartorial twist on Kubrik's 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Styled by: Frank de Jesus

The Bar: Veev acai cocktails

The Music: DJ Morgan Collett spun tracks by Radiohead and Interpol.

In his own words: "It was such a graphic film, black and white with pops of raspberry. I interpreted that as a mix of layered textures and shapes. The challenge was to keep it tailored and classic—pieces a guy would want to wear."

  • This is the first season the label offered double-breasted suits.
