Holy ‘Spokes!’
WHILE Calvin Klein, Duckie Brown, Ralph Lauren, and scores of other trendsetting designers unveiled their 2011 men’s spring collections in New York just last week, at home the preppy and classic designs of local men’s line Spokes Apparel hit the runway on the lawns of Devon House Thursday last. The occasion: a celebratory function hosted by Saint International to honour the agency’s male models’ appearance in V-Man magazine where they were listed among the world’s leading models. Splash had front-row seats.
