Under the direction of designer Jay Vosoghi, Boglioli is developing into a brand that can do more than just make those coveted unstructured blazers. Today the soft, hand-stitched jackets were still present, but Vosoghi added a cohesive sensibility to the line, as well as many new, just as covetable pieces.
This time around the highlight was on bottom, not on top. In search of a more relaxed look and feel to the collection, Vosoghi crafted what might just be the perfect pleated trousers—straight and relaxed, with just a bit of extra volume on top. Now seems like a good time to shake off the pleated-pants hangover many of us still have from the nineties. That s not to say the jackets weren t just as good as ever, crafted in Irish linen, jacquard, piqué, silk, and terrycloth. Vosoghi nodded to the seventies throughout with bigger lapels, pajama-like safari jackets, colorful stripes, and trim Bermuda shorts.
Perhaps the most impressive item was the slightly structured wool and silk suit, made with no visible stitching for a clean, minimal appearance—somewhat of a departure for the brand that once helped make the hand-stitched look a status symbol for young sartorially minded fellas. It proved that Boglioli has more than one trick up its unlined sleeve.
