My dear fashionistas, welcome to the first winter fashion story on the Mr.M blog this 2024/25 season. I hope you are well and ready for a new dose of fashion. Today we will continue the story of an unusual Italian fashion brand that we had the opportunity to meet in one of the previous posts on the Mr.M blog – YOON.

Today, I would like to introduce you to the YOON brand, latest creation in the prestigious history of the Mancini family, a long tradition of over 50 years of textile production. Building its reputation on a solid know-how concept under the label “Made in Italy”, the Mancini family uses the exclusive experience of Italian craftsmanship and high-quality fabrics, to provide elegant fashion creations and exclusive style that characterises the Italian design talent woven into YOON, the brand which combines tradition and prestige.

YOON is the flagship brand of the Mancini family and is characterised by artisanal elegance that has won the hearts of customers around the world thanks to the use of fine yarns, ecological and innovative fibers. Acquired several years ago to enhance the company’s presence in the casual chic market, YOON has so far provided the company with high visibility at the international trade fairs Pitti Uomo in Florence and The Supreme in Monaco.

Due to unerring sense of fashion and innovative creativity, YOON clothing becomes a means of living in the third millennium. For those who pay attention to MADE IN ITALY quality, who deliberately choose not to go unnoticed, giving preference to elegant and dynamic styles at the same time. Intelligent weaving between fashion style and vintage shades, between technology and nature, somewhere between “city style” and “British style”.

YOON presents dry and clean lines in its collections, as required by an increasingly dynamic everyday life. The past and the future combine to give a new prism to the general picture of life, synthesizing maximum style and maximum comfort in one clothing combination. The materials used are extremely pleasant to wear, light and at the same time warm and protective, from new tactile sensations.

Another feature of YOON clothing is the extraordinary ductility of the collection, which is provided by practical models with precise and never superfluous details. Noble fabrics merge into new, intangible and elastic fibers.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see a the two-coloured shades of blue turtleneck sweater from the latest YOON collection. I liked this turtleneck because of the unusual combination of colours.

In short YOON is a brand that indicates the style and personality of modern times. In the following fashion stories, I will show you some more models of YOON knitwear from their latest winter collection, and I believe you will find the ideal piece for yourself or a loved one. If you want to know more about the YOON brand, visit their official website and follow them on Instagram and Facebook.

Today we will continue the story of an exclusive luxury unusual fashion brand that I noticed in a previous post that you fell in love with at first sight – Brett Johnson. This brand possesses a multi-faceted spirit that reflects the founder of the brand through his own quest to redefine the American dream we all dream about.

Brett Johnson represents a real masculine universe of relaxed luxury with a touch of modern and refined self-awareness that every modern man with refined taste should possess. This exceptional fashion brand was founded by Mr. Brett Johnson, a menswear designer born in Virginia in 1989. He studied fashion in New York, where he also worked for Donna Karan, until there was a turning point in his life in 2014 when he decided it was the right time to start his own fashion brand. Mr. Johnson comes from a family of successful entrepreneurs as his parents are the founders of BET Entertainment (Black Entertainment Television), an American cable television network based in Washington and after its sale to Viacom, they expanded the business into hospitality and financial services. Growing up in a family that developed numerous successful businesses, Brett Johnson gradually built his vision of a sustainable and successful independent fashion brand in the right way.

Mr. Johnson battled a lot of prejudice early in his design career as many believed he was just another rich kid who decided to make his way into the world of fashion. With his dedicated work and exceptional creativity, Mr. Johnson showed what a refined, self-aware modern man should look like, because due to his creativity, he managed to include his fashion brand in the offer of the famous department store Neiman Marcus, which recognized the undeniable talent of Mr. Johnson, as well as his vision brand.

The Brett Johnson brand has experienced dizzying success in the world of fashion in a short time, which is why Mr. Johnson opened his first flagship store in 2017, on Mercer Street, the elegant heart of Soho. At that moment there was a need to internationalize his brand and therefore the collection had to be presented all over the world. The world of fashion is special and the right decisions need to be made to keep a brand at the top and Mr. Johnson found himself at an important business crossroads and it was time to choose the next market to expand his brand.

New York, where the heart of the brand is located, needed to find a place in Europe to expand the business. When we talk about the world of fashion, there are only two European metropolises where every brand can develop, namely Milan, the center of the fashion business and the cradle where the “Made in Italy” concept of work is kept, or Paris, the famous international fashion hub in Europe. Mr. Johnson decided on Milan, where he still achieves outstanding results.

With each new collection, designer Brett Johnson left the men’s fashion world speechless because his pieces are iconic and timeless and can be worn on any occasion. It is my great honour to present to you the extraordinairy piece of the new Brett Johnson Fall-Winter 2024 collection. While writing this fashion story, I am trying to find the right words to define the new Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection. At a very first sight, I would say that the collection is inspired by the neutral colours of nature and everything is subordinated to comfort, unique refinement and inevitable elegance.

The brand itself is recognised for its creation of high-quality clothing and fashion accessories for men, but this piece of fashion that I will present to you today – an aviator navy jacket made of exquisite deerskin is for me a piece of fashion that simply invites you to go out and explore.

The new Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection is inspired by the green natural environment, with colors reminiscent of the typical shades of the mountain environment; from the white of snow to the blue of the sky, from the warm tones characteristic of autumn leaves to the green of untouched forests. This collection is adorned with jackets, raincoats, parkas, coats and fine knitwear. These are the pieces that the Brett Johnson brand has proposed for this fashion season. Men’s fashion for the autumn-winter season should be made of clothes that are resistant to wind and water, extremely comfortable and super light. In the new Brett Johnson collection, materials like cashmere, leather and wool are used, soft and warm fibers that gently envelop the figure, giving an authentic experience of comfort.

In today’s post you have the opportunity to see a navy Aviator Deerskin Jacket from the latest Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection, which is made of the finest pebbled deerskin, the beauty of which is emphasised by a natural shearling fur collar. The jacket has ribbed cuffs and hem.

This beautiful long sleeve leather aviator jacket features a front zipper with two front pockets. All the materials used to make the jacket – natural leather and fur – are of Italian origin and the entire production was carried out in Italy.

It is with great pleasure that I can share with you all wonderful news, as many of you have asked me what is happening with the brand’s website and you have not been able to access it and view the new Brett Johnson collection, the site has been in the process of working due to an unexpected number visit the site went down, but their technical team solved the problems and the site is available again! I hope that like me, you will find your favourite timelessly elegant Brett Johnson piece for yourself or for your beloved man if you are looking for the ideal gift for your husband.

In the following fashion stories, I will show you some more outfits that were completed with this extraordinary jacket and I believe that you will find inspiration for your ideal fall-winter outfit. If you want to know more about the Brett Johnson brand, visit brand’s official website and follow them on Facebook and Instagram.

Fashion pieces from the Brunello Cucinelli collection are made so that they can last for seasons and years with the guarantee that you can leave something of exceptional quality to your descendants with a timeless cut that will always be fashionable. Each manufactured piece is designed so that it does not follow blind trends, but on the contrary remains its own and consistent with the style of timeless elegance and refinement. Brunello Cucinelli is a brand that cherishes the values of “quiet luxury”, that’s why you’ll never see an aggressive brand logo on their clothes, leather goods or other fashion accessories, but the design and material will tell the story for themselves.

Brunello Cucinelli is an Italian luxury fashion brand that sells menswear, womenswear and accessories in Europe, North America and East Asia. The company was founded by Mr. Brunello Cucinelli in 1978. Mr. Cucinelli started his fashion house in 1978 specializing in Mongolian cashmere clothing for women. Today, the company owns 94 of the 124 stores worldwide. A few years ago, more precisely in January 2017, the company launched its online web store.

Mr. Cucinelli controls and manages the brand through Fedone Srl. Cucinelli’s family fund owns 57% of the company’s shares, and has also set up a special fund for the benefit of his daughters, Camilla and Carolina, to guarantee the proper handover of his eponymous company. This is an inspiring fashion story about a family.

An impressive fact is that the company headquarters is located in a 14th-century castle on top of a hill in the middle of Umbria, an area known as the “green heart” of Italy. Brunello Cucinelli donates 20% of profits to its charitable foundation and pays workers wages that are 20% higher than the fashion industry average. Also interesting information is that the employees of the company have extremely flexible working hours and that e-mails are not allowed after working hours. This is one of the few fashion houses that have such good working conditions, which is commendable in today’s age of classical capitalism.

My outfit today is adorned with navy trousers from the latest Brunello Cucinelli Fall-Winter 2024/25 collection, which are made of the finest wool. If you want to stay updated and find out what iconic Italian fashion house Brunello Cucinelli has prepared for us this fashion season, follow this brand on social media: Facebook and Instagram.

Everyone who follows the Mr.M blog knows that I am a big fan of quality and interesting shoes, regardless of whether they are sneakers or elegant shoes, I always try to pay maximum attention to fashion details such as footwear. Today we’re meeting again with a famous French house whose creations I adore and you’ve seen before on the Mr.M blog.

I got these Christian Louboutin shoes from my dear friends Mytheresa Man, a shopping platform. The Rantus model in question is made of real python leather in the shade of mottled navy blue

If you want to find interesting fashion pieces and a special collection of shoes, you can find them on the Mytheresa online shopping platform where all fashion lovers can find something for themselves!

My dear fashionistas, we have come to the end of the first winter fashion story of this season, where together we discovered the beauty and splendor of fashion with the cult fashion house Brett Johnson, elegance and prestige with the luxury Italian brand Brunello Cucinelli, the beauty of urban knitwear with the Italian brand YOON , the prestigious French shoe brand Christian Louboutin in collaboration with the shopping platform MYTHERESA MEN, partners with whom fashion stories are a real adventure. I sincerely hope you got some inspiration for your ideal winter outfit!

See you soon and continue our fashion adventures on the Mr.M blog! How did you like my outfit today? I really tried my best to prepare today’s post with lots of love and I hope you like it!

Interesting outfit, the jacket is really nice and I like the style that Brett Johnson creates. It’s always interesting to meet new designers who nurture minimalistic and quiet luxury features! Thank you Marko for the detailed information, I like the way you present brands.

This aviator jacket is really awesome, especially because of the color because it is rare to find a navy aviator jacket as they are usually black or dark brown. I’m curious about Brett Johnson sizes, are they true to size or are they smaller or larger than other Italian fashion brands? Thanks in advance

Dear Marko, I’ve been reading your blog for years and it’s nice that you haven’t given up on your style and that you’ve maintained your simple, refined and elegant style to this day. It’s rude to me when people define elegance and refinement as “old money look”, it sounds so snobbish to me, but I honestly think that every man should dress like this. What I’m really interested in is, how do all the clothes fit in your wardrobe?

The whole outfit is really good, but your roll stands out, it’s the first time I hear about this Italian knitwear brand YOON and I can notice that their prices are not too high, but I can see that they use quality materials to make their knitwear items. Is this skate model also available in another color? It would be nice to have it in maybe burgundy or green shades! At least I hope there is such a thing! Warm greetings from Stockholm!

Lieber Marko, du hast wieder eine hervorragende Modegeschichte geschrieben! Ich möchte Ihnen im neuen Jahr alles Gute wünschen und Ihre Modereise fortsetzen, um Männern Inspiration zu geben, und es ist schön, dass Sie diese selbstlos mit Ihrem Publikum teilen. Mir ist aufgefallen, dass Sie die Zusammenarbeit mit einigen deutschen Marken eingestellt haben. Ist das nur vorübergehend oder werden Sie uns weiterhin Modemarken aus der DACH-Region vorstellen? Ich denke nicht, dass ich gemein bin, aber ich finde es einfach seltsam, dass Sie aufgehört haben, mit Marken wie PICARD oder Hugo Boss zu arbeiten, und stattdessen oft über sie geschrieben haben. Mit… Read more »

The navy-on-navy approach here is bolder than it looks, because so few men trust a single colour to carry an entire outfit. I was especially drawn to the Brett Johnson aviator in deerskin with that shearling collar, since you rarely see this cut done in navy rather than the usual black or brown. I had no idea his parents founded BET before he moved into fashion. Do you find pebbled deerskin more forgiving over time than smooth lamb leather?

Caro Marko, da italiano mi riempie d’orgoglio vedere tre case del nostro Paese in un solo look. Non conoscevo YOON come marchio della famiglia Mancini, con oltre cinquant’anni di tradizione tessile alle spalle. Il dolcevita bicolore dipinto a mano è davvero una scelta coraggiosa e personale. Apprezzo molto che tu spieghi il legame con il Pitti Uomo di Firenze. Brunello Cucinelli e Solomeo restano per me il cuore più nobile della moda italiana.

Lieber Marko, eine elegante und durchdachte Modegeschichte. Dass Brunello Cucinelli seinen Sitz in einem Schloss aus dem vierzehnten Jahrhundert in Solomeo hat, fasziniert mich seit Jahren. Noch beeindruckender finde ich, dass er zwanzig Prozent des Gewinns an seine Stiftung spendet und keine E-Mails nach Feierabend erlaubt. Solche Werte sind in der heutigen Modeindustrie eine echte Seltenheit. Wie fällt die Wollhose von Cucinelli aus, eher schmal oder mit klassisch weiterem Bein?

Bonjour Marko, ton choix de Christian Louboutin en python pour clore cette silhouette est audacieux. Le modèle Rantus en bleu marine moucheté apporte juste ce qu’il faut de relief sans casser l’harmonie. J’ai moi-même acheté une paire de Louboutin via Mytheresa après l’un de tes articles, et le service était impeccable. Le bleu reste pour moi la couleur la plus sous-estimée du vestiaire masculin. Penses-tu que le python demande un entretien particulier par rapport au cuir classique?

Olá Marko, que prazer começar o inverno com uma história tão sofisticada. Fiquei impressionado com a marca YOON, que desconhecia por completo até hoje. Saber que pertence à família Mancini e que nasce de meio século de tradição têxtil dá outro peso à peça. O azul duplo da gola alta tem uma profundidade rara que poucas malhas conseguem. Obrigado por apresentares sempre marcas que fogem do óbvio.

Marko, this is exactly the kind of post that keeps me subscribed. The story of Brett Johnson starting his label in 2014 after working for Donna Karan, then opening on Mercer Street in 2017, is genuinely inspiring. It shows that heritage and hard work can coexist. I appreciate that the jacket’s leather and fur are both Italian and the whole thing is made in Italy. Would you say a navy aviator like this works better with denim or with tailored wool trousers as you’ve styled it here?

Hola Marko, una apertura de temporada impecable. Me ha encantado descubrir que YOON ha expuesto en Pitti Uomo de Florencia y en The Supreme de Mónaco, porque eso dice mucho de su nivel. El jersey de cuello alto pintado a mano en dos azules es de una elegancia muy serena. Tengo un par de pantalones de Brunello Cucinelli comprados gracias a tus reseñas y duran como ningún otro. ¿Recomendarías el azul marino como base para un armario masculino completo o solo como acento?

Здравствуйте, Марко! Прекрасный старт зимнего сезона на вашем блоге. Меня особенно тронула история Брунелло Кучинелли, который основал дом в 1978 году и начал с кашемира из Монголии. То, что штаб-квартира расположена в средневековом замке в Соломео, в самом сердце Умбрии, придаёт марке особую душу. Авиаторская куртка Brett Johnson из оленьей кожи смотрится благородно именно в тёмно-синем цвете. Спасибо, что открываете нам бренды, о которых мало кто пишет.

Beste Marko, een verfijnde en goed onderbouwde modestory. Ik kende YOON nog niet, maar het idee van een handgeschilderde coltrui in twee tinten blauw spreekt me enorm aan. Dat het merk van de familie Mancini komt, met meer dan vijftig jaar textieltraditie, geeft het meteen geloofwaardigheid. Het samenspel met de Brett Johnson aviator vind ik bijzonder geslaagd. Zou zo’n donkerblauwe leren jas volgens jou ook overdag op kantoor kunnen, of is hij puur voor vrije tijd?

Marko, I always admire how thoroughly you research each house. Learning that Brunello Cucinelli’s family fund holds the majority of shares, with a separate fund for his daughters Camilla and Carolina, speaks to a rare sense of continuity. It is the very opposite of the disposable culture that dominates fashion now. The navy wool trousers anchor this look beautifully. There is a quiet dignity to dressing entirely in one tonal family.

Witaj Marko, świetna historia na początek zimowego sezonu. Bardzo podoba mi się, że Brett Johnson urodził się w Wirginii w 1989 roku i zbudował markę od podstaw, mimo uprzedzeń na starcie. Granatowa kurtka pilotka z jeleniej skóry z kołnierzem z owczej wełny wygląda wyjątkowo szlachetnie. Doceniam też, że cała produkcja odbywa się we Włoszech. Czy taka skóra jelenia jest cieplejsza od klasycznej skóry jagnięcej na zimę?

Ciao Marko, complimenti per questa prima storia invernale. Trovo affascinante che Brett Johnson abbia scelto Milano come porta d’ingresso in Europa, riconoscendo la culla del Made in Italy. Il dolcevita YOON dipinto a mano aggiunge un tocco artistico che spezza la formalità del completo. Possiedo un capo Brunello Cucinelli e confermo che la qualità della lana si sente al primo tatto. Secondo te, il python dei Louboutin Rantus invecchia bene o tende a seccarsi col tempo?

Cher Marko, ton sens du détail est toujours remarquable. J’aime que tu rappelles que Cucinelli verse une part de ses bénéfices à sa fondation et qu’il interdit les courriels après le travail. Voilà une vision humaniste rare dans le luxe. La gola alta YOON en deux bleus apporte une touche presque picturale à l’ensemble. C’est une silhouette hivernale d’une grande tenue, sobre et pourtant pleine de caractère.

Hello Marko, a wonderful read to start the season. I find the YOON turtleneck genuinely intriguing, especially the hand-painted two-tone blue, which feels like wearing a small piece of art. It is fascinating that the Mancini family acquired it specifically to enter the casual chic market. The Brett Johnson aviator gives the whole thing a relaxed masculinity. Could you tell me how the YOON knitwear sizing compares to a classic Italian fit like Cucinelli?

Lieber Marko, ein hervorragender Auftakt in die Wintersaison. Mich beeindruckt, dass Brett Johnson seinen ersten Flagship-Store 2017 in der Mercer Street in Soho eröffnete und dann nach Mailand expandierte. Diese amerikanisch-italienische Verbindung verleiht der Marke einen besonderen Charakter. Die Navy-Lederjacke mit Shearling-Kragen wirkt zeitlos und doch modern. Würdest du sie eher etwas enger oder mit Spielraum zum Lagenlook bestellen?

Hola Marko, otra crónica de moda llena de sustancia. Me parece admirable que Brunello Cucinelli pague a sus trabajadores un veinte por ciento más que la media del sector. Ese castillo del siglo catorce en Solomeo, en el corazón verde de Umbría, es casi un símbolo de su filosofía. El conjunto en azul marino transmite serenidad y autoridad a la vez. Has elegido cuatro casas que comparten un mismo respeto por el oficio.

Olá Marko, sigo o teu blog há vários anos e este artigo está impecável. A jaqueta aviador da Brett Johnson em pele de veado, com gola de carneiro, parece feita para durar décadas. Gosto que sublinhes que tanto a pele como a pele de carneiro são de origem italiana. O azul marinho em camadas dá uma elegância contida que poucos sabem construir. Achas que esta peça combina melhor com malhas claras ou com tons igualmente escuros?

Marko, your eye for footwear never disappoints. Choosing the Christian Louboutin Rantus in mottled navy python was a daring final flourish that pays off. I bought a pair of Louboutin shoes through Mytheresa after one of your earlier reviews, and they remain among my favourites. The way the python picks up the navy of the trousers and jacket ties everything together. It is a masterclass in tonal dressing without ever feeling monotonous.

Hallo Marko, wat een sterke seizoensopener. Het verhaal van Brett Johnson, die opgroeide in een ondernemersgezin en toch zijn eigen weg in de mode koos, vond ik bijzonder inspirerend. De handbeschilderde YOON coltrui in twee tinten blauw is een verfrissend detail. Ik waardeer dat je merken kiest die kwaliteit boven logo’s stellen. Is python van Louboutin moeilijker te onderhouden dan gewoon kalfsleer, denk je?

Caro Marko, una storia raffinata come sempre. Mi piace molto che YOON unisca tecnologia e natura, tra lo stile cittadino e quello britannico, come scrivi tu. Il fatto che la famiglia Mancini abbia oltre cinquant’anni di esperienza tessile spiega quella cura nei filati. Il blu profondo di tutto l’insieme richiama l’eleganza sobria che apprezzo nella moda maschile matura. Hai colto perfettamente lo spirito invernale senza rinunciare alla leggerezza.

Hi Marko, I look forward to your winter stories every year. The detail that Brunello Cucinelli began in 1978 with Mongolian cashmere for women, then grew into this quiet luxury empire, never ceases to amaze me. His refusal to plaster logos on his pieces is exactly why I trust the brand. The navy wool trousers here look beautifully cut. Do you find Cucinelli wool warm enough for harsh winters, or is it better suited to milder city days?

Bonjour Marko, quelle entrée en matière soignée pour l’hiver. J’ignorais que YOON avait été présenté au salon The Supreme à Monaco, en plus du Pitti Uomo. Cela en dit long sur l’ambition de la maison Mancini. Le col roulé peint à la main en deux bleus est d’une originalité rafraîchissante. Conseillerais-tu une maille extrafine comme celle-ci pour un homme qui a souvent chaud, ou risque-t-elle de manquer de tenue?

Hola Marko, magnífica historia para abrir el invierno. La chaqueta aviador de Brett Johnson en piel de ciervo con cuello de borrego me parece una pieza de inversión perfecta. Me gusta que recuerdes que toda la producción es italiana, pese a ser una marca americana. El azul marino, tan poco aprovechado por los hombres, aquí cobra una profundidad elegante. Es un placer leer a alguien que valora el oficio por encima de la moda pasajera.

Marko, this might be one of my favourite posts of yours this winter. The way you describe the Brett Johnson FW24/25 collection drawing on mountain colours, from snow white to forest green, paints a vivid picture. The navy deerskin aviator feels like the perfect anchor for such a palette. I admire that the brand earned its place in Neiman Marcus through sheer talent. Which of these four houses would you recommend a man invest in first if budget were a concern?

Lieber Marko, eine sehr gelungene Modegeschichte zum Saisonbeginn. Die handbemalte YOON-Strickware in zwei Blautönen ist ein erfrischend künstlerisches Detail. Es gefällt mir, dass das Label aus der langjährigen Textiltradition der Familie Mancini hervorgeht. Der gesamte Look bleibt ruhig und doch keineswegs langweilig. Du beweist erneut, dass wahre Eleganz vor allem aus Zurückhaltung entsteht.

Witaj Marko, znakomity początek zimowego sezonu. Bardzo cenię, że Brunello Cucinelli przekazuje część zysków na fundację i płaci pracownikom powyżej średniej w branży. To rzadkość w dzisiejszym świecie mody. Granatowy zestaw, od golfa YOON po spodnie Cucinelli, tworzy spójną i dostojną całość. Czy wełniane spodnie Cucinelli nadają się na mroźniejsze dni, czy raczej na łagodniejszą zimę w mieście?

Hi Marko, a thoroughly enjoyable read. I find it remarkable that the YOON turtleneck is hand-painted, giving each piece a slightly individual character. That artisanal touch separates it from ordinary knitwear instantly. The pairing with the navy aviator and the python Louboutins shows real confidence in monochrome dressing. I have leaned into tonal navy looks since following you. Would you ever break this palette with a contrasting scarf, or keep it strictly within the blue family?

Olá Marko, mais uma crónica de moda cuidada e informativa. Adorei saber que a sede da Brunello Cucinelli fica num castelo do século catorze em Solomeo, no coração verde de Itália. Esse respeito pela tradição reflete-se na qualidade da lã das calças. A gola alta YOON em dois azuis acrescenta um toque artístico inesperado. É uma combinação invernal sóbria mas cheia de personalidade.

Caro Marko, che bella apertura di stagione. Conoscevo Brett Johnson di nome, ma non sapevo che i suoi genitori avessero fondato BET prima di passare all’ospitalità. La sua scelta di Milano come base europea conferma il fascino del Made in Italy. Il giubbotto aviatore in pelle di daino con collo in shearling è semplicemente magnifico. Pensi che il blu navy si presti anche a un’occasione più formale, o resta nel registro casual chic?

Beste Marko, een verfijnde en goed gedocumenteerde story. Het detail dat Cucinelli geen e-mails na werktijd toestaat, zegt veel over zijn menselijke visie op ondernemen. De Brett Johnson aviator in donkerblauw deerskin straalt rust en klasse uit. Ik bewonder hoe je een volledig blauw palet laat werken zonder dat het saai wordt. Dit is precies het soort wintergarderobe dat ik nastreef.

Marko, your attention to detail is what sets your blog apart. I appreciated learning that the Louboutin Rantus is crafted from real python in a mottled navy, sourced through Mytheresa Men. It is the kind of subtle statement shoe that rewards a second look. The whole outfit feels considered down to the last stitch. Do you think python is a sensible choice for everyday winter wear, or is it best reserved for special occasions?

Cher Marko, une histoire d’hiver pleine de finesse. J’apprécie que tu rappelles l’origine de YOON, marque phare de la famille Mancini, avec son savoir-faire italien. Le mariage d’une maison américaine, Brett Johnson, et de trois maisons européennes est particulièrement réussi. Le bleu marine décliné en plusieurs matières donne une vraie profondeur à la silhouette. Quel conseil donnerais-tu pour entretenir un col roulé en maille extrafine au fil des hivers?

Здравствуйте, Марко. Отличное начало зимнего сезона и очень элегантный образ. Меня впечатлило, что бренд YOON выставлялся на Pitti Uomo во Флоренции, что говорит о его уровне. Двухцветный синий свитер с ручной росписью выглядит по-настоящему индивидуально. Куртка Brett Johnson из оленьей кожи прекрасно завершает этот глубокий синий ансамбль. Спасибо за внимание к деталям и за честные обзоры.

Hola Marko, otra apertura de temporada espléndida. El jersey de YOON pintado a mano me ha cautivado, porque convierte una prenda básica en una obra casi artística. Saber que la familia Mancini lleva más de cincuenta años en el textil le da mucha credibilidad. Compré una chaqueta tras una de tus historias y aún recibo cumplidos por ella. ¿Crees que el azul marino favorece a todos los tonos de piel o conviene matizarlo según cada hombre?

Marko, a beautifully composed first winter story. I am always struck by how you give each brand its proper history rather than just naming it. The fact that Brett Johnson faced prejudice as a so-called rich kid yet earned his place in Neiman Marcus through talent is a story worth telling. The navy deerskin aviator is the standout piece for me. It manages to look both rugged and quietly luxurious at once.

Lieber Marko, eine elegante und kluge Modegeschichte. Dass die Materialien der Brett-Johnson-Jacke, Leder wie Fell, italienischen Ursprungs sind und in Italien verarbeitet werden, schätze ich sehr. Solche Transparenz ist heute leider selten geworden. Der zweifarbige blaue Rollkragen von YOON setzt einen feinen künstlerischen Akzent. Trägst du Shearling-Kragen lieber hochgeschlagen oder offen, je nach Anlass?

Caro Marko, una storia raffinata e ben documentata. Apprezzo che tu sottolinei come Brunello Cucinelli rifiuti i loghi aggressivi, lasciando parlare il materiale e il taglio. Quella filosofia del quiet luxury è il vero lusso dei nostri tempi. Le calze, pardon, i pantaloni in lana navy completano il tutto con discrezione. Secondo te il dolcevita YOON dipinto a mano si abbina meglio a una giacca di pelle o a un blazer di lana?

Hi Marko, a genuinely inspiring read. The detail that Cucinelli set up a dedicated fund for his daughters to ensure a proper handover of the company moved me. It shows that he thinks in generations, not seasons. The navy palette across all four pieces feels timeless rather than trend-driven. This is the sort of wardrobe a man can rely on for years, which is exactly the philosophy you champion.

Witaj Marko, doskonała historia na otwarcie zimy. Nie znałem wcześniej marki YOON, więc cieszę się, że przybliżyłeś jej związek z rodziną Mancini. Ręcznie malowany golf w dwóch odcieniach błękitu to naprawdę oryginalny pomysł. Granatowa kurtka pilotka z jeleniej skóry dodaje całości męskiego charakteru. Czy poleciłbyś taki głęboki granat jako alternatywę dla klasycznej czerni w męskiej garderobie?

Olá Marko, que excelente forma de abrir o inverno. Fascina-me que Brett Johnson tenha aberto a primeira loja em 2017 na Mercer Street, em Soho, e depois escolhido Milão para a Europa. Essa ponte entre Nova Iorque e Itália dá à marca uma identidade única. A pele de veado granulada com gola de carneiro parece de uma qualidade soberba. Recomendarias esta jaqueta para um clima ameno como o nosso, ou é demasiado quente?

Marko, your styling instincts are impeccable as always. I love that you trusted a single colour, navy, to carry the entire look from knit to shoe. It takes real confidence to dress this way and you pull it off effortlessly. The hand-painted YOON turtleneck was a clever choice to add subtle movement. For a man new to monochrome dressing, would you suggest starting with navy or with a softer grey?

Hallo Marko, een sterke en doordachte seizoensopener. Ik vind het knap hoe je vier huizen met heel verschillende achtergronden tot één samenhangend geheel smeedt. De Brett Johnson aviator in deerskin is duidelijk de ster van het beeld. Dat zowel het leer als het bont Italiaans is, geeft me vertrouwen in de kwaliteit. Hoe houdt zo’n shearling kraag zich eigenlijk in vochtig winterweer?

Bonjour Marko, un récit hivernal d’une grande élégance. Le fait que Cucinelli soit installé dans un château du quatorzième siècle à Solomeo donne presque une dimension romanesque à la marque. J’aime aussi ton attachement aux belles chaussures, et le choix du python Louboutin le prouve. Le bleu marine, trop souvent négligé, retrouve ici toute sa noblesse. C’est une leçon de sobriété maîtrisée.

Hi Marko, this is precisely why your blog is a daily pleasure. The YOON turtleneck in two blues struck me immediately, since hand-painted knitwear is such a rarity. It is wonderful that the Mancini family built this on more than half a century of textile know-how. The navy aviator and python shoes complete a thoroughly considered look. Could you tell me whether YOON ships internationally, or is it mainly found at trade fairs like Pitti?

Hola Marko, una historia de moda redonda para empezar el invierno. Me parece fascinante que Brett Johnson trabajara para Donna Karan antes de lanzar su propia firma en 2014. Esa experiencia se nota en la precisión de la chaqueta aviador. Tengo unos zapatos Louboutin comprados en Mytheresa por recomendación tuya y siguen impecables. ¿Aconsejarías el python solo para hombres con cierta soltura en moda, o puede llevarlo cualquiera con discreción?
