apparently...menswear!
"Before, some men looked at fashion askance," observes Toby Bateman, the buying director of the male attire arm of Net-a-Porter in T, The New York Times Style Magazine (September 12, 2013). "But now it has become more gentrified; it’s about cut, tailoring. It’s contemporary, chic and stylish rather than glitzy, trendy and logo driven." Which is why Dolce & Gabbana, Lanvin & Ralph Lauren have all flourished despite the economic crisis, and in the case of Tom Ford, grown to almost 100 stores worldwide and $200 million in annual apparel sales. "Men’s wear," adds Bateman, "is the new women’s wear.”
