Hot on the heels of my roundup of the best men’s fashion coming out of Milan for spring 2010, I bring you my favorite picks from Paris—from a new way to wear an old classic to the accessory every man (and maybe woman) needs to buy now.
Hermes: Who needs to know how to tie a tie anyway?
I for one love a man in a tie, even for a more casual look. It just reads confident, and well, sexy. So I immediately took notice of the way Veronique Nichanian was leaving ties loose and knotted on the runway for Hermes. Brilliant!

I don’t quite condone the cropped, patched pants, but I do give a hearty two thumbs up to the chic, attaches-to-your belt fanny pack. I see men walking around with everything from phones to sunglasses clipped to their belts—I would much rather see this!

Paul Smith: There’s nothing weepy about these pale baby blues.
It’s really rare to see something come down the runway and envision it exactly like that on someone else. Usually, I want to change the shirt or the shoes or tailor the jacket. But everything from the crisp slouch of the pant to the choice of an easygoing slide is just perfect.
