Minx for Men at Phillip Lim

Phillip Lim’s Spring/Summer 2012 collection for men was inspired by street cred and skateboard style and to  launch the collection he chose to get all of the male models minxed for the show… now I’m not so convinced that a Minx mani for men is quite the ticket for improving street cred, but I do love Minx so here are the pics!

To create a rugged street look, the Minx team applied MinxLusion on the models, scrubbing and roughening the edges to look as if they had been skateboarding down the street with fingertips scraping over the pavement. (Ow sounds painful!)

This isn’t the first time I’ve showed you pics of Minx for Men… there was Vanilla Ice and Dominic Cork who wore Minx on Dancing on Ice and Steven Tyler loves Minx… but will it catch on for ‘normal’ men? I’m not convinced..!

Gratuitous male model shot... well at least he's got Minx on his fingers! (slightly relevant!)

The pics were all taken by Philippe Ardouin
