Colorblocking With James Long

Colorblocking is a trend that isn't unheard of this season, even in menswear. The designers at J.Crew and Band of Outsiders both implemented this stylistic approach in their collections. But, as everyone knows, fashion is ever-changing and evolving, and it seems that the designers at James Long have taken the idea of colorblocking to a different level. The design team featured three blocks of dark color on several different designs, making them look almost like an avant-garde layer cake.

The trifectas of unorthodox autumn colors were a visual focal point on many of the collection’s designs. Texture was also a prominent aspect of the collection, and different fabrics were blended together to create practical looks that will be more than appropriate for the breezy autumn days to come. In several designs, texture and colorblocking were fused together to create looks that incorporated everything James Long is about.

Bold, daring, or sexy, the adjective is up to you. Just know that James Long had a winner in this collection.
