PARIS, Dec 20, 2008 / FW/ — ‘The show must go on,’ goes an old showbiz saying. The fashion has adopted it in its own way as the bi-annual menswear season kicks off this January amidst a global economic uncertainty.
In Paris, the Paris menswear catwalk presentations begin Thursday, January 22nd, with Hugo, Hugo Boss opening the season. This will be Bruno Pieters’ debut on the catwalk for Hugo, Hugo Boss wherein he had been collaborating for some time now.
Francisco Van Benthum actually shows at 9:30 AM, but it has not been confirmed yet, so as of this writing, Hugo, Hugo Boss will officially open the Fall 2009 Paris menswear season.
Four days later, British designer Gareth Pugh is scheduled to close the menswear season, which is also his debut on the menswear catwalk. Pugh had shown his womenswear collection in Paris in past seasons.
