Finnish brother and sister designer duo Tuomas and Anna Laitinen eschewed their customary Paris men's week presentation this wee and, instead, concentrated their energies on private appointments and shooting their spring 2012 lookbook—from which we've culled our favorite looks, above.
The new season collection is a flawless exercise in what Laitinen does best—dark, gorgeous custom prints; brooding, luxurious, yet minimalist leathers; sharp tailoring with a modernist twist; louche easy-to-wear shirting with creative use of drawstrings and buttons; and absolutely to-die-for amazing outerwear. Season after season Laitinen consistently makes some of the best men's outerwear in the independent luxury designer market—easy-to-wear, stylish, modern, and new.
