PLEASE FORGIVE ME IF YOU ALREADY KNEW THIS: ROLAND MOURET IS DOING MENSWEAR AND SO IS GARETH PUGH

worldwide - wowza! men of the world, rejoice! it looks like roland mouret and gareth pugh, both legendary for their womenswear collections, are jumping into the mens category. it was announced over a month ago  ( i know i'm soo late!) that mouret is currently working on a mens line to debut in january during mens fashion week. now it looks like gareth pugh is in on the act as well. plans have already been made for him to close paris fashion week with his show at the palaise de tokyo. despite the fact that loads of labels (think valentino, fendi, marni) have cancelled their mens show, pugh is moving full throttle. that must be thanks to what must be a nice injection of cash from designer rick owens, who owns a 49% stake in the gareth pugh brand. loving it!
