<p>Geoffrey Beene stocks everything that a modern, fashion-conscious male would want. From funky designs to playful cuts and colours, the brand is on a mission to dress up every man in the most attractive way possible. <br /><br />Of cuts and shades</p>.<p>The brand has two broad variants — a formal line and a sports collection. The formal line has dress shirts, dress trousers and blazers as staple categories; while the sports collection offers sports shirts, premium cotton chinos and luxury and mercerised polos. <br /><br />The formal and the sports collection are creatively christened as ‘Sartorial Elegance’ and ‘Sartorial Dynamism’ for the ‘Spring Summer 2012’ Indian edition. There are a range of wrinkle-free shirts, super-fine cotton sport shirts and pure-cotton twill shirts, to mention a few. </p>.<p><br />Giving an insight into the design creativity of the brand, Moutushi Dey, the head of design for Arvind Retail Limited, says that the brand is a combination of everything — cut, colour and design. “A good product is the perfect culmination of cut, colour and design. </p>.<p>However, if we had to single out our strongest point of emphasis, it would definitely be the cut or in more common terms — ‘the fit’. Colour and design are undoubtedly updated and in trend; but they are a shade easier to achieve in comparison to cracking a fit,” explains Moutushi. She further says that post extensive trials and research, the brand achieved sophisticated, yet relaxed silhouettes, across categories.<br /><br /> “The snugly fit polo or the traditionally bold shirt, paired with the well-tailored chinos or trousers, under a crisp light-weight blazer is an ideal combination of everything,” she adds. <br /><br />Geoffrey Beene boasts of churning out fashionable, updated looks and the emphasis is not on a single product, but on a holistic ensemble. “We focus on dressing a gentleman from head to toe. He walks in and under a single roof, gets the most luxurious and international look — not just a single piece of premium quality clothing,” Moutushi <br />emphasises. </p>.<p><br />Men love to dress up and they don’t compromise on accessorising to complete and complement the look. “The satin and knitted ties — in slim widths, offered in both subtly classic stripes and solid, bolder colours alike — are becoming a staple twist to this segment,” concludes Moutushi. <br /><br />Mekayel Mathew, I year BCom, Kristu Jayanti College, wore a checked shirt and trousers from the casual-wear section. <br /><br />Punchline: “The brand stocks a wide range from party wear, casual clothing to formals, especially for young people. They have a good fashion sense and that shows in their designs.” <br /><br />Price: Shirt (Rs 1,099) and trousers (Rs 1,199) </p>.<p>Harsh C, III year BCom, Jain University, chose a blue shirt and trousers from the party-wear collection. </p>.<p><br />Punchline: “It is just perfect as party wear. I really like the combination, which is not only comfortable but very attractive as well.” <br /><br />Price: Shirt (Rs 1,099) and trousers (Rs 1,199) </p>.<p><br />Jeril Mathew, II year BBM, CMR Institution of Management Studies, chose to slip into a formal shirt and a pair of trousers. <br /><br />Punchline: “I never wear formal clothes and this was truly a different experience. The fit is good and the design is in keeping with modern tastes.” <br /><br />Price: Shirts (Rs1,099); trousers (Rs 1,199) and tie (Rs 629) </p>.<p>Mohammed Adeeb, pursuing CCIE course with Networkers Home, wore a checked shirt and trousers from the casual collection. </p>.<p><br />Punchline: “I like the shirt because of its fit, which is something that other brands miss. I like the pattern on the shirts and the contrast on the sleeve, which makes it all the more attractive.” </p>.<p><br />Price: Shirt (Rs 1,099) and trousers (Rs 1,199) <br />Subhas, II year MCA, Christ University, wore a purple tee and matched it with light-coloured trousers. </p>.<p><br />Punchline: “Purple is my favourite colour and the design is such that I can wear it to any occasion.
