Jonathan Saunders Showing Menswear in Milan

Men's Fashion Week is already dangerously close--here we go again! In just a few days time, menswear editors will skip town and hit up Milan and Paris to see the first looks of what we can expect for fall of 2012. British designer Jonathan Saunders (featured in this year's Out100) has slowly been testing the waters of the menswear world. He sprinkled in a few looks with womenswear during his Fall 2011 show, and presented looks for Spring 2012, but now, it appears that Saunders will be manning up and showing alongside the likes of powerhouses Gucci, Versace, and Dolce & Gabbana in Milan. Vogue UKreports that while the location is yet to be announced, Saunders--widely known for his liberal use of rich colors and enthusiastic prints--is definitely confirmed to show his first full men's collection on a runway next week. He's long been deemed as a rising star of womenswear, so we'll be sure to tune in and see his latest offerings for the lads.
