Smart fashions: Azur's layering options

The mood to party and dress up stays these first weeks of the year. And celebrating affairs this season can be a breeze with the classic yet modern pieces from premium menswear brand Azur.

Launched as a contemporary label to suit Filipino men who are confident and sophisticated and with a flair for smart fashions, Azur introduces fresh menswear into the local scene with its innovative style ideas, particular eye for detail.

For its current collection, the proudly Philippine-made Azur boasts of versatile separates in somber hues of elegant purple accented with crisp white. Its key looks come in fine stripes and playful plaids for prints while minute detailing such as unique hardware and special piping brings out individualistic charms. Matte silver fabrics highlight Azur’s polished suits for any occasion, from formal business meetings to rock and roll nights out.

Adopting Azur’s distinctive style philosophies, the collection conforms to its slim-fitting silhouettes for the modern Filipino man unwilling to compromise style for comfort. This is especially evident with its modern take on the trench coat, designed with Chinese collars and multiple pockets. This season, Azur also  introduces a 2010 must-have in the form of a slim, single-breasted blazer. For more layering options, the brand offers a wide variety of light scarves, ties, waistcoats, and accessories in limited quantities.

With its high-quality tailoring and versatile, modern designs, Azur styles can translate from season to season. From striped dress shirts to flattering, slim-cut blazers, these pieces are built for every affair you may need.

Azur is available at The Ramp in Glorietta, Crossing in Shangri-La mall, and Landmark in TriNoma mall.
