Lexposure.net released their summer 2009 Menswear trends. It is a great round up on all the key style elements. One trend in particular that stands out is the oversized category.


"Oversized blank T´s and Tank Tops with wide crew necks and sticky shoulders. Or maybe you are more of a deep v-neck type? Both cool and breezy solutions for a hot summer."


It makes for a wonderful silhouette and comfort is going to be a key direction this summer. With the world seeming out of control, the one thing we can keep control of is comfort.
