Everyone wants to be up on the latest styles and trends, no matter how many different brands and designs are floating around at the time, and with big brands constantly releasing new collections and looks, trends move on to something new at one point. But for now, we at OD’s have homed in on the biggest fashion trends that are doing the rounds at the moment and are getting the most recognition on the high streets.

Key Trends at The Moment

Animal Print

Both men and women can unleash their wild side with some animal print designs in their life. Footwear is becoming increasingly design-led as time goes on, and animal print designs are currently taking centre stage. You will often find women’s heels and boots to have effects reflecting the skin/fur of leopards, crocodiles or snakes, with men’s pumps and trainers not very far behind at the moment. An example on the male demographic’s side here at OD’s is one of our popular Android trainers selections: Men’s Android Homme Propulsion Mid Trainers. These high-top Android Homme shoes are covered in premium suede and nubuck leather upper for maximum comfort all day long when you are having yet another shopping day. They are coloured in variations of grey, and at the side you can find reflective snake-print panels that blend perfectly. If you are looking for stylized Android trainers that have an animalistic edge, look no further than the Men’s Android Homme Propulsion Mid Trainers to keep your fashion side untamed.

Glossy Fabrics

Many people like to have clothing that give off a certain effect or impression and are seen as irregular compared to the usual materials used in your every-day wardrobe garb. Glossy fabrics are incorporated into a lot of designer clothes these days, mainly in women’s fashion. The high-shine effect gleams in sunlight and gives your t-shirt, hoodie or sweatshirt a more authentic, luxurious appearance. An example of one of our own products that takes on the glossy fabric effect is found in our Women’s Calvin Klein collection, being our Women’s Calvin Klein Hooded Sweatshirt. This all black women’s Calvin Klein sweatshirt, complete with a drawstring hood and kangaroo pocket, brings in a pairing of cotton blend fleece and gloss prints displaying a boxed version of the Calvin Klein Jeans logo on both the left side of the chest and the left hip. With this women’s Calvin Klein sweatshirt you see how the shine from the glossy fabric makes the logos really glow and makes the sweatshirt reek of luxury and glamour. With this selection from our range of women’s Calvin Klein clothing you will be sure to look chic and give off the appearance of a lavish lifestyle.

Sock Boots

Every woman wants that added bit of comfort when they go on a night out and worry that their feet are going to be killing before midnight. Sock boots definitely provide that wanted comfort! This fitted style of boots can come in various lengths, with a material that shows off the silhouette of your legs/ankles that they cover. The best thing about them? Expect them to easily slip off without hassle after a long night out or day at work. At OD’s, of course we’ve gotten in on this popular trend; we proudly stock Womens Tommy Jeans Sock Healed Boots. Featured in our womens Tommy Jeans collection, our Tommy Jeans boots Represent Tommy Hilfiger with the brand’s famous tricolour palette displayed around the top. These tight yet comfortable Tommy Jeans sock boots come in a tall heel to implement that extra height. Thrown in with a pair of skinny jeans or a long skirt, these Tommy Jeans sock boots are sure to have you travelling to work or venturing on a night out in style.

Hats

Lads love their hats nowadays. With the latest shoes, a pair of skinny jeans and a t-shirt/bomber jacket combo on the upper body, you can usually find the head covered with something to complete the outfit for venturing around town or going on a drive with your pals. Caps, beanies, newsboys; there are so many variations for what guys will thrown on today. But, the main trend at the moment has to be the cap. With more and more high-end brands releasing newer designs for caps constantly, you can always find this type of headwear somewhere nearby. That’s why we heavily stock our men’s Dsquared cap range. Found in our Men’s Dsquared Accessories category, Dsquared hats for men are designed to represent Canada, the home country of the brand’s twin designers Dean and Dan Caten. Giving off a rustic vibe and made to suit the look of a trucker cap or baseball cap, these increasingly popular hats give off a rough edge and once you see them you can tell why men’s Dsquared cap designs fit in perfectly with a guy’s casual look.

But, it’s not only men that are getting in on the hat trend. Women, especially with Winter creeping in, can constantly be found to have their outfit consisting of a parka, jumper, jeans, suede boots and a warm fur hat. Perfect for enjoying bonfire night or just getting you to work without shivering, hats for AW18 are all the go and are practical for any woman’s usual outfit in the backend of the year. If you are looking for the perfect way to complete your look, get in on the current trend with our Women’s BKLYN hat range. These comfy BKLYN hats are made using only the best Italian merino wool for that extra soft touch, with a single fluffy pom pom found at the top of them. Our BKLYN bobble hat range come in a variety of hues; so not only are you ensuring that you are given the softest, warmest product to keep your head warm, but you are also ensuring that you can get BKLYN hats in colours that complete your outfits perfectly.

Check Print

The check print shirt look is an age-old fashion trend that keeps on giving. Being crafted for either the formal or informal look, check shirts are perfect to be thrown on with casual or smart jeans depending on the occasion and their actual design. Men’s check shirts have always crept in and out of fashion, but you will always find at least one person wearing one on a normal day. With high-end fashion, men’s check shirts have certainly made another come back and are trending as much as ever. Examples from our own products at OD’s have to be our Men’s Vivienne Westwood Long Sleeve Checked Shirt and our Men’s Michael Kors Long Sleeve Slim Shirt. From looking at these two shirts, you can see that both use a careful blend of colours to create a relaxed pattern that looks smart and still calls back to the traditional look of check shirts. Perfect for a celebratory meal with your loved ones or a special occasion in general, these smart men’s check print shirts are ideally combined with smart blue or black jeans and a pair of brogues or smart black pumps.

With the Winter months coming, it’s best that you prepare for a chill in the air. How do you do that I hear you ask? Invest in the best coats to keep you warm and cosy. But wouldn’t it be better if you could up your body temperature in style? That’s where Mackage coats come in to play. Mackage was started by lifelong friends Eran Elfassy and Elisa Dahan back in 1999 with their first collection of coats. Since its inception, Mackage has built itself up, introducing their own mens range in 2008 and then taking their next step by establishing their handbag range in 2013. The brand has since grown to become a leading, high end brand that is sold in more than twenty countries over a total of three continents.

Function of Mackage Coats

When Mackage was started, both Elfassy and Dahan believed that outwear clothing can function in more ways than one. They had the firm belief that outwear clothing can remain warm and comforting whilst also appearing stylish and trendy. Why can’t practical outwear for the Winter and Autumn months be fashionable and stylized at the same time? Elfassy and Dahan wanted to tackle this head on and create a brand that gave you comfort but still offered you a high-end, fancy clothing range for when you are out and about. That belief from 1999 has no catapulted Mackage to the forefront of the outwear game and made it a standout brand for the Autumn and Winter seasons.

Female Mackage coats have climbed to become the cornerstone of women’s fashion, going on to be worn by celebrities such as Gwenyth Paltrow and featuring in the media on TV shows such as the critically-acclaimed Suits. We at OD’s couldn’t be happier to have our Mackage range featured in our women’s department, displaying our stock with the utmost pride and excitement. With such an amazing brand to have in our possession, we can’t help but share the details on the features that make a female Mackage coat so suitable and perfect for the winter months.

Main Features of a Female Mackage Coat

No.1: Made from Water-Resistant Material

Although we all love the Winter months for various reasons, the weather that comes with the season doesn’t always please us. You can expect rain, snow and even hailstones. With these conditions you can expect to be soaked, but thankfully with Mackage coats it won’t matter. This range of outwear is made with effective water-resistant fabric that covers the entirety of the outer layer of the coat to help in stopping any absorption of water. This is perfect for those rain days when you are walking to work on a rainy day or when you are doing some last-minute Christmas shopping on a snowy day before meeting your friends for a spot of lunch! These coats will help in keeping your jumper, cardigan or t-shirt warm and dry for the whole day.

No.2: Duck Down Filled

One of the main qualities of a Mackage women’s coat is the warmth provided by it. With the Winter season, warmth is the priority whenever you step outside your front door. Mackage coats are filled with With 90% pekin duck down and 10% pekin duck feathers to assist with insulation of heat. With the use of duck down and feathers, you can be sure that whether you are just on a quick journey to your local shop or taking in the festivities by walking around the Christmas markets in your city, you will definitely not feel the chill in the air. Make sure you are kept warm for these last few months of the year with the right outwear for insulation.

No.3: Fur Trim for Extra Warmth

The functionality of Mackage coats is to keep you as warm as possible whilst also allowing your outfit to burst with style and class. This is strengthened with the incorporation of the brand’s iconic fur-trim hood. The fur-trim of a Mackage coat is more or less the signature of the brand and is seen as one of the it’s most noticeable qualities. Fur is aligned around the hood of the coat to assist in warmth and also protection. Coupled with a stand-up collar that surrounds the whole of your neck area, the fir-trim hood helps in keeping your entire upper body warm, protecting your face from the likes of rain and show,  whilst also having an elegant and stylish appearance wherever and whenever you wear it.

Moose Knuckles is a name that, over the last few years, has become synonymous with incredibly warm, winter outerwear. From the outset, this Canadian-based brand has done everything in its power to protect people against the cold – offering a range of coats and jackets that are designed with maximum functionality in mind. Yes, a Moose Knuckles Coat is stylish and tailored to create a sleek and sexy fit; but it is also incredibly cosy, and it is intended to keep people warm and toasty on the bleakest of winter days. If you haven’t yet joined the #MooseTribe, it’s time to make an investment and prepare for the wet and windy months that lie ahead. This is a brand that has worked hard to set itself apart from the competition and, earlier this year, the Moose Knuckles Parka was officially ranked as the warmest on the market. Here we take a look at the reasons why.

Research into the Moose Knuckles Coat

It’s not something that happens often; research into designer brands and the quality of their clothing. Yet, over the last few months, researchers at the Institute for Environmental Research (Kansas State University) have been casting their beady eyes over “cold weather garments”. Their latest study put some of the biggest designer brands to the test, investigating the thermal insulation value of their most popular winter coats and determining the temperature comfort rating for each. Canada Goose, Mackage, and Woolrich were all part of the study and they all performed well. However, there was one brand in particular that stole the show; that is, Moose Knuckles.

The Moose Knuckles Parka was ranked, scientifically, as the warmest coat – achieving a thermal insulation value of 2.11clo and a temperature rating of 4.3°C. By comparison, the Canada Goose Trillium Parka achieved 2.03clo and 5.3°C, the Mackage Akiva Parka reached 1.96clo and 6.2°C, and the Woolrich Arctic Parka fell at the bottom of the pile with 1.84clo and a temperature rating of 7.8°C. Unless you’re an expert in the field of clothing insulation, we’re guessing these numbers don’t mean much to you – but there is just one important point to note. Moose Knuckles was the clear front-runner and their luxury parka was deemed the cosiest style currently on the market.

Why is a Moose Knuckles Coat So Damn Warm?

Moose Knuckles was established based on the belief that they could make the “leanest, toughest, and most luxurious” winter outerwear in the world – and, judging by the results of this university study, they can officially say they have succeeded in this quest. This is a brand that believes the devil is in the detail and, as such, every single aspect of a Moose Coat is designed to contribute to its warmth and cosiness. For example, they all typically have a fur-lined hood, they all have an interior and exterior stormproof zip placket, they all have a cleverly reinforced interlining in critical heat-loss areas. However, aside from these little details, Moose Parkas essentially adhere to three main criteria and it is these criteria that really give them their research-proven toasty edge.

No.1: They Have a Tough Shell

All Moose Knuckles Coats are crafted from durable Canadian fabrics, including a water-repellent and windproof outer layer, and a lining that is silky-soft yet incredibly strong. These fabrics work together, creating a tough shell and shielding your body against the harsh winter elements.

No.2: They Are Fitted With a Sturdy Metal Zipper

Each design is fitted with the brand’s custom YKK full metal zipper. This is a heavy-duty two-way zip, constructed from an unbreakable metal. It is water-repellent, freeze and rust proof, and – once it is zipped up – it traps in the heat and enhances the overall warmth of the Moose Parka.

No. 3: They are Crafted from Luxe Duck and Goose Down

Moose Jackets have luxurious duck and goose down in all the right places. In order to attain superior insulation and the highest standard of warmth, the brand uses whole and undamaged clusters of down, with a 4-ply construction and a minimum of 650 fill power. Fill power refers to the weight to volume ratio of the down and the higher the number the better. This is why coats by Moose Knuckles are lightweight and comfortable, yet still able to keep you snug on a bitter winter day.

Invest in a Top Ranking Moose Knuckles Coats

If you’re looking to invest in a new coat for the cold winter months and you’re unsure of which brand or style to go for, let’s face it, the research speaks for itself. Winter outerwear has always been the focus of the Moose Knuckles brand and, from the outset, they have built their Canadian know-how and gritty urban style into every design. This study is proof of their expertise, proof that a Moose Knuckles Coat is a worthwhile investment – a coat that is guaranteed to keep you warm and dry in the wind and rain – and, here at OD’s, we’re proud to a be stockist for this top ranking brand. As part of our designer clothing department, you will find an extensive collection of Mens Moose Knuckle Coats, Womens Moose Knuckles Jackets and Moose Knuckle Parkas for Kids. So why not take a look today? Invest in a high-performance yet stylish winter coat, put it to the test, and see what all the fuss is about for yourself…

Who is Nicole Benisti? If you’re a follower of fashion trends and a sucker for fresh designer brands, you may have heard or seen this name in passing, but do you actually know who she is and what she does? At the moment we’re guessing the answer is probably no, but trust us, that won’t be for much longer. Nicole Benisti is the CEO and Creative Director of her own winter outerwear collection and, over the last few years, she has been colouring in the metropolitan landscape with her vibrant fur jackets and luxurious everyday parkas. She is a creative mastermind, a lady dedicated to creating feminine yet functional winter coats and – from her base in Montréal, Canada – she has quickly attracted the attention of fashion bloggers and style panellists from all across the world.

Nicole Benisti Parkas are all designed with the modern woman in mind and you can expect an artful balance of elegant sophisticated style and weather-resistant functionality. The signature design comes in black, with a sumptuously soft and vivid fur-trim hood, and the only sign of self-promotion is a subtly debossed logo to the reverse. These coats are the epitome of versatility and they sit somewhere in between high-end career-wear and urban streetwear fashion. It doesn’t matter where you work or what you do as a job, it doesn’t matter whether you spend your weekends rambling in the countryside or exploring the bright cities. A Nicole Benisti Parka is a worthwhile investment – perfect for transitioning from day to night and week to weekend – and they are fast becoming one of the most sought-after pieces of women’s winter outerwear in the world of fashion.

Although this edgy designer label was founded in 1996, it has only recently made its way onto the UK fashion scene and, as such, it is stocked at a select few designer stores across the country. Here at OD’s, we feel incredibly privileged to be one of these stockists. We’re always on the look-out for the freshest designer brands on the market and we couldn’t wait to get our hands on this amazing collection of stylish winter coats. The full AW18 Nicole Benisti Range can now be found online and in-store, as part of our women’s designer department, and here we take a look at the three main designs of the season – the Chelsea, the Madison, and the Belleville – in a little more detail.

Three Iconic Nicole Benisti Coats

No. 1: The Nicole Benisti Chelsea Parka

If there’s one Nicole Benisti Coat that completely embraces the cornerstones of this fashion-forward brand, it is the Nicole Benisti Chelsea Parka. Currently up for grabs at OD’s in a black and gold colourway, it shows us exactly how to be ladylike cool in a down-filled puffer and it offers the perfect combination of elegant womanly style and winter-month practicality. It is sleek and slender, and thanks to its defined waistline, it creates a perfectly flattering feminine silhouette. However, it also benefits from a luxurious 650 down filling and a plush coyote fur hood, and it is guaranteed to keep you warm and cosy on the coldest of winter days. If this is your first introduction to the genius that is Nicole Benisti and you want a coat that is practical (and pretty!) enough for every occasion, invest in the Chelsea Parka. We guarantee, it will soon become your everyday favourite.

No. 2: The Nicole Benisti Madison Parka

For those who like to make a fashion statement, the Nicole Benisti Madison Parka in Black-Blue is definitely the one to go for. This is the perfect style to elevate your everyday look and make sure you stand out from the crowd; coming in traditional black, yet detailed with an incredibly vivid (and somewhat eccentric) electric blue hood. Yes, it is one of the brand’s more youthful and edgy designs, but it still has that important feminine touch – with its glam a-line cut and sumptuous fur details – and its high-performance outer shell will ensure you stay protected, whatever the weather. The Madison Parka is also currently up for grabs in a black-silver and black-black colourway; so, if understated cool is more your sense of style, you can still get a piece of the action. Just be sure, whichever colour you go for, do this masterpiece justice and wear it with pride and confidence.

No. 3: The Nicole Benisti Belleville Parka

A coat is a staple of every girl’s winter wardrobe; something that can be thrown day after day, becoming the focal point of every outfit – and it doesn’t get much better than the Nicole Benisti Belleville Parka. Detailed with an opulent blush-pink hood and lined with luscious racoon fur, this everyday style has an incredibly feminine and girly-girl feel. Its silhouette is slightly more relaxed than those seen above, but it plays with volume and can be easily cinched at the waist to enhance your figure. The Belleville Parka also benefits from a water-repellent outer shell and a two-way centre zip and it is guaranteed to keep the cold and rain at bay. Invest in this sophisticated staple, throw it on in the morning, and give your everyday ensemble a touch of modern, cosmopolitan flair.

Tommy Mallet is one of those popular household names, best known for his appearances on The Only Way is Essex (TOWIE). First bursting onto our screens in 2014, he embarked on a drama-filled romance with Georgia Kousoulou and has remained in the public eye ever since. But it’s fair to say, Mallet isn’t just another reality TV star looking for his 15 minutes of fame. This is a young entrepreneur, determined to succeed in life, and his business endeavours are incredibly impressive. He is the co-owner of a trendy Essex club, he has collaborated with designer brand Belvoir & Co to create a line of men’s sunglasses and, over the last few years, he has made a name for himself in the world of high-end fashion – designing and releasing his own collection of Tommy Mallet Trainers.

How Did the Tommy Mallet Trainer Brand Begin?

The brand was born out of both Tommy’s childhood memories and his enthusiasm for the humble sneaker. Growing up on a council estate, his family couldn’t afford to buy him fashionable trainers and he would often be the target of school bullies. He worked hard to bag his place on TOWIE and, whilst posing at a photoshoot in 2015 – wearing a £1200 pair of trainers – he realised that although they were exquisite, they were far too expensive for most people. He decided to take matters into his own hands and, calling upon the help of a friend in the fashion industry, he set about creating his own range of mallet trainers – trainers that are inspired by those he couldn’t afford as a kid.

Since its establishment just 3 years ago, Mallet has become one of the fastest growing trainer brands in the UK. It has attracted the attention of many A-list celebs (including Craig David, Olly Murs, and Will.I.Am, to name a few), it has sold more than 150,000 pairs of trainers and the brand is now stocked in over 190 stores – including, of course, here at OD’s. We’re incredibly excited to have this contemporary footwear range in our men’s department and, with the latest collection recently landing in store, we thought it was only right to put the brand into the spotlight. Check out our top 3 Tommy Mallet Trainers for AW18 and then head over to our website to browse the full range today.

When it comes to Tommy Mallet Trainers, flexibility is the basis of every single design. They are slick, comfortable, and designed to be suitable for all occasions  – and the Mens Mallet BTLR Hiker Black-Silver Trainers couldn’t be a better example. These stylish low-tops are constructed from high-quality leather, mesh, and soft scuba panels and, thanks to their chunky Italian sole, clocking up your daily 10,000 steps can be achieved with minimal fuss. Up for grabs in this multi-toned colourway and detailed with a mirrored heel strip, they are both understated and distinctively designer and they are perfect footwear for both casual days in the office and nights out with a friend. If you’re going to invest in one pair of Mallet Trainers this season, opt for versatility and go for this well-rounded pair.

No.2: Mens Mallet Nix Trainers

It’s fair to say, we’re head over heels for this pair of Mens Mallet Nix Trainers. Mallet is a guy who likes to keep one eye trained on the future of fashion and these everyday sneakers completely embrace this season’s “oversized sole” trend. Harsh straight lines are combined with smooth curves, khaki suede panels are combined with dashes of 3M gold fabric and the entire shoe sits upon a futuristically-modern yet comfortable Italian sole. These Mallet Trainers are sure to make you stand out from the crowd as you walk down the city street and they create an effortlessly cool urban look. Simply style them up with a pair of skinny black jeans and a slouchy everyday sweatshirt.

No.3: Mens Mallet Archway 1.0 Trainers

Talk about taking “sports-luxe” to the max. The Mens Mallet Archway 1.0 Trainers are the absolute epitome of a luxury sneaker brand – the definition of sports-luxe trainers, in fact – and for this reason, they just had to feature in our line-up. These casual low-tops offer the perfect balance of everyday comfort and statement style. Coming in pastel-pink and detailed with gold-tone hardware throughout, they are strictly for forward-thinking men with a modern sense of style and they are screaming out to be the focal point of your outfit. For men with a slightly more understated fashion sense, the Mallet Archway Trainers are also currently available in a sand-beige colourway and they are the perfect option if you want to add a small touch of cool to your everyday look. Be bold or keep things classic, the choice is yours; but be sure to do these Mallet shoes justice and team them both with a pair of modern ankle-grazing jeans and a very simple short-sleeved tee.

If you’re not already familiar with Moose Knuckles, it’s time to join the #MooseTribe and add a touch of this premium brand to your casual weekend collection. Moose Knuckles has been protecting Canadians from the bitter cold since 1921; yet, it made its first UK appearance in 2007 and has quietly risen to fame ever since – offering collection after collection of signature tech-savvy waterproof coats. There’s no denying that winter outerwear is their area of expertise and, over the last decade, they have built their expert knowledge and gritty urban style into every single jacket they have made. However, recent years has also seen the introduction of everyday wardrobe staples – including t-shirts, sweaters and accessories – and the brand has become renowned for both its wild irreverent attitude and advertising campaigns that are giggle-worthy and riddled with innuendo.

AW18 has been no exception. This season, Moose Knuckles have decided to promote their new collection with a horror-themed advertising campaign, entitled the “Shady Maple Motel”. This campaign comes complete with a short horror film, which tells the tale of a doughnut-chain heiress and her friends as they check into a suspicious motel in Toronto. Yes, we agree, it sounds totally bonkers – but it certainly catches your attention and it is a fantastic way to showcase this year’s range of winter coats, jackets and clothing. Moose Knuckles is by no means a shy brand and it has set itself apart from other luxury outerwear labels. Here we take a look at some of the top picks from this season’s collection and, hopefully, recruit some new followers for the #MooseTribe.

Moose Knuckle Men

If you’re going to add Moose Knuckles to your everyday wardrobe, you may as well go all out and completely embrace it’s wild and ballsy nature. This is the type of designer label that stands out from the crowd and we absolutely love the way it combines the finest luxury materials and expert tailoring with eye-catching and unique playful designs. Take for example the Mens Moose Knuckles Munster Sweatshirt. This long-sleeved jumper is one of our favourite pieces from this season’s collection; a practical day-to-day essential, built with all-day comfort in mind and detailed with the brand’s iconic mascot – the Moose Munster. It can be easily styled with a pair of skinny jeans and trainers and it is guaranteed to turn a few heads as you walk down the city street.

We’re also a massive fan of the Mens Moose Knuckles London Flag T-Shirt, currently up for grabs in both a crisp white and a classic black colourway. This short-sleeved tee is a celebration of one of the brand’s favourite places in the world, printed with a union jack to the front and detailed with the word “London” to the reverse of the design. Subtle branding gives it that distinctive designer touch, it offers the perfect balance of everyday comfort and high-end style, and it works well with either the Mens Moose Knuckles Comeau Bomber or the Mens Moose Knuckles North Arm Hoody.

Moose Knuckle Women

For AW18, the Moose Knuckles Womens Range focuses on what they do best; that is, luxurious coats and bomber style jackets. These jackets artfully fuse the brand’s Canadian know-how with a slick urban sense of style and, with the days rapidly cooling and a bitterness in the night air, they are exactly what you need to stay warm and comfortable throughout the autumn-winter season.

Here at OD’s, our absolute favourite design has to be the Womens Moose Knuckles Yorkdale Bomber. Hip-length, water-repellent, and filled with luxurious duck down – it is a testament to the brand’s long-standing expertise and guaranteed to keep you warm and dry in the harshest of conditions. Yet it is also incredibly stylish too. Up for grabs in this classic black colourway, it is detailed with plush red fur and finished with a gold-plated logo for that distinctive designer touch. Simply style with a figure-hugging jumper dress and a pair of high-top boots and, trust us, you’ll be ready for wild days out in the city! We’re also currently loving the Womens Moose Knuckles 3Q Jacket. Boasting a trendy slim fit design and a contrasting black and white colourway, this is the type of winter coat that will make you stand out from the crowd, whilst also keeping you warm and dry on the coldest of days. Zip it up, pull up the hood, and enjoy cosy fur-trimmed heaven.

Have you ever heard of Massimo Osti? Probably not, but Osti is an incredibly important figure in the history of streetwear fashion, the genius and mastermind behind both C.P. Company Undersixteen and Stone Island Junior. Most people don’t realise, but these two seemingly separate designer labels are inextricably linked. C.P. Company came first, founded by Osti in 1976; Stone Island came later, created almost by accident in 1982. Osti had been experimenting with fabrics for a long time and, having come up with a new material – which he dubbed Tela Stella – he was determined to make something out of it. He couldn’t find a way to make this new material fit within the C.P. Company Collection and, thus, decided to craft a small range of “Tela Stella” jackets instead. This range became the brand’s successful diffusion line and just like that, Stone Island was born.

C.P. Company Undersixteen and Kids Stone Island share many similarities; similarities that we’re guessing you’ve never noticed before, but are now glaringly obvious. Both of these designer labels are renowned for their endless research and investigation and, by constantly scrutinising fibres and experimenting with new dye techniques, together they have redefined our understanding of sportswear. Simple everyday garments enter their workshop and later emerge with a unique characteristic; something futuristically modern and new to the fashion industry. All styles have a casual off-duty feel and a military-inspired urban theme runs throughout each collection. Both C.P. Company and Stone Island are now a point of reference for trend-conscious boys and, here, we take a look at some of the highlights of the season – comparing and contrasting these twinning brands.

AW18 by C.P. Company Undersixteen and Stone Island Junior

Functional T-Shirts

A short-sleeved tee is one of the simplest garments in a little boy’s wardrobe; an everyday staple and the perfect blank canvas for experimental brand’s such as C.P. Company and Kids Stone Island. Over the years they have produced a plethora of casual t-shirts, all detailed with an unusual print or intriguing dye effect of some kind, and this year was certainly no exception.

Take for example the Boys Stone Island Black Compass T-Shirt. It may come in a classic black colourway and boast a traditional silhouette; however, a unique frosted compass logo can be found to the front chest and, as such, it is distinctively designer and one of our favourite pieces from the AW18 collection. C.P. Company has also experimented with their logo this year, introducing the Boys Royal Blue C.P. Company T-Shirt. This day-to-day essential is the perfect example of the brand’s legendary manufacturing techniques, dyed to perfection and detailed with a silver reflective logo print, and it offers the ideal balance of high-end style, comfort, and everyday functionality.

Contemporary Tracksuits

A Kids Stone Island Tracksuit is one of those things that kids are desperate to get their hands on, popular due to their comfy classic silhouette and understated branding. For AW18, researchers at the Stone Island lab have decided to keep things more understated than ever, with the Boys Stone Island Track Pants and Track Jacket. Both of these have a very simple and minimalist design; cut from grey cotton fabric and detailed with exposed tonal stitching and the brand’s iconic compass badge. They are comfortable yet stylish and perfect for lazy weekends at home. In a similar fashion, C.P. Company has also taken a minimalist approach to their autumn-winter tracksuit – offering up this Boys C.P. Company Undersixteen Track Jacket and matching Joggers. This everyday tracksuit combo stays true to the brand’s philosophy of “function and use” and – for that distinctive designer touch – the signature goggle lens can be found effortlessly incorporated into each style.

Cosy Coats

When the weather turns cold and the nights draw in, a coat becomes the focal point of a little man’s wardrobe and, for AW18, both C.P. Company Undersixteen and Stone Island Junior have embraced a classic military style. Take for example the Boys Stone Island Puffer Jacket. Coming in a khaki-green colourway, this everyday coat has an urban army-combat feel, and the iconic compass logo badge – buttoned to the left arm – adds to the overall look. A similar design has also recently been released by C.P. Company Undersixteen; that is, the Boys C.P. Company Shell Jacket. This hip-length jacket also boasts a trendy “puffer-style” silhouette and comes in a khaki-green colourway and, for that military-inspired designer touch, it features the brand’s split lens goggles to the hood. Invest in either of these winter coats for your little one and, we guarantee, it will become a season fave.

Shop C.P. Company Undersixteen and Kids Stone Island Today

If you take a look at these two designer labels a little more closely, it’s easy to see that they are essentially one and the same; designed and created with the same main principles in mind. Both C.P. Company and Kids Stone Island are led by research, dedicated to boundless investigation, and have an innovative approach. They may have been founded several decades ago, but they continue to push the boundaries of design and offer collection after collection of incredibly stylish yet functional clothing. Both the AW18 C.P. Company Undersixteen Range and the AW18 Stone Island Juniors Range are currently up for grabs, here at OD’s Designer Clothing. So why not browse the full online collections today, see if you can spot the similarities and subtle differences between these two legendary brands, and add a touch of technical military style to your little man’s wardrobe.

HUGO BOSS is one of those legendary brands that everybody knows and loves. Initially founded in 1924, by Mr H. Boss himself, it is a brand that started small – making suits, raincoats and overalls for professional men in Germany – and despite its controversial links with the Nazis, it has come a very long way. BOSS’ grandchildren took over the reigns in the 1950s and, since then, generation after generation have continued with the family business, seemingly creating a successful empire from nothing and reaching icon status. Various new lines have been added to the brand over the years and, as a result, HUGO BOSS is no longer just renowned for its work uniforms and formal suits. It now offers a complete wardrobe for a fast-paced modern lifestyle, including casual ready-to-wear clothing, relaxed athleisure pieces, and trendy designs to suit men of all shapes and stature.

But the question is: do you know the difference between each HUGO BOSS line or wearing occasion? 2018 saw the introduction of BOSS Business, BOSS Athleisure and BOSS Casual (formerly known as BOSS Black, Green, and Orange) and, unless you’re a full-blown fashion aficionado, we’re guessing the answer is no. This is the type of thing we pride ourselves on knowing at OD’s and, as such, we thought we’d make things easy. Here we put each wearing occasion under the magnifying glass, picking out their unique characteristics and highlighting some of our favourite styles from each.

Your welcome…

A Guide to HUGO BOSS Wearing Occasions

BOSS Business

Quite simply, BOSS Business is the brand’s heritage. It is the wearing occasion they are best known for, globally renowned in fact, and it includes a range of smart suits and formal workwear attire. This is a collection designed with the modern working man in mind; young professionals, who need their wardrobe to work as hard as they do. Expect classic formal silhouettes that are tailored to perfection and crafted from the finest quality materials. Clothes that are refined and sophisticated, with just the right level of contemporary trend. If you’re looking to create an impressive first impression, perhaps at a job interview or business meeting, BOSS Business is the wearing occasion for you.

Here at OD’s, we believe that BOSS Business can be worn one of two ways – either smart-casual or smart-smart. For example, there are occasions when a man needs to look slick and dapper, but not overly formal and – for those occasions – we recommend styling the Mens BOSS Business Pleins Polo Shirt with the Mens BOSS Business Cento Jacket and a pair of dark-wash jeans. Alternatively, if you’re a powerhouse professional who needs to look seriously on-point, you can’t go wrong with a crisp suit, a Mens BOSS Business Shirt and the Mens BOSS Carmon Shoes. Dial it up or tone it down, dependent upon the scenario, and get ready to take on the business world in style.

BOSS Athleisure

Athleisure or “sports-luxe” is one of the biggest fashion trends of late and, it’s fair to say, HUGO BOSS has taken it to a whole new level with the BOSS Athleisure Wearing Occasion. This particular sub-brand is all about being impeccably dressed, even on the laziest of days. Think of clothes that are designed with extreme comfort and practicality in mind, but are still effortlessly stylish. Designs that are understated and sporty, yet with a high-end fashionable touch. BOSS Athleisure is perfect for casual day-to-day wear and it can be thrown on for everything from active sessions at the gym, to long days of travelling and relaxed weekends at home.

Take for example the Mens BOSS Athleisure Sarrotech Track Jacket and BOSS Athleisure Harotech Track Pants. Boasting a classic tracksuit silhouette and subtle brand detailing throughout, this is the type of outfit that will provide maximum comfort and style when most needed. Simply team it with a BOSS Athleisure T-Shirt and a pair of statement trainers to complete the high-end athleisure look.

BOSS Casual

Sitting directly in the middle of BOSS Business and BOSS Athleisure is the compromise, BOSS Casual; a range of contemporary clothing, perfect for when you want to look casual yet incredibly on-trend. This is the off-duty wearing occasion that will take you seamlessly from drinks with the work friends to a weekend in the city with bae. Expect a range of subtle understated tones that are detailed with bold and eye-catching prints, t-shirts and sweaters that have sleek lines and a modern fit, and styles that are cut from the highest-quality fabrics and finished with an exquisite attention to detail.

For AW18, we’re particularly loving the Mens Boss Casual Akanice Knitwear. This two-tone woven design comes in dark blue and white, with a small metal logo tag to the left hemline, and its features are designed to ensure all-day comfort. It is understated yet high-end and, when styled with the Mens BOSS Casual Zince Jacket and the Mens BOSS Casual Delaware BC-P Jeans, it will create a smart hipster-ish look and is guaranteed to turn heads as you walk down the city street.

Other BOSS Wearing Occasions

In a day-and-age where inclusivity is more important than ever, designer labels have to cover all the bases, and nobody does “inclusive” better than HUGO BOSS.  Perhaps you’re big boned with a muscular build? Or 7ft tall with legs as long as a runway? It doesn’t matter, as thanks to the BOSS Big & Tall Wearing Occasion, you too can get a piece of the HUGO BOSS action – with clothes that are stylish, luxurious and perfectly proportioned. Other wearing occasions, currently available at OD’s, include BOSS Body & Swimwear, BOSS Footwear, and BOSS for Kids. Whoever you are and whatever you fashion preferences or needs, we guarantee, this is a brand that has something for you.
