Window Dressing on the Side: American Apparel

Three Makes It a Trend: Two Tones are Better than One

(Bally)

Menswear shows for Spring 2012 had a lot of bad pant trends with balloon cuts and pajama styles runnin' rampant. But there was one other bothersome bottom I spied: two tone pants

(Ombré style at Phillip Lim)

And whether your a chop off the old color block or an ombré hombre, this trend feels more American Apparel than Modern Man's Must to me. Surprising if we'll think of it twice

 (I think I had swim trunks just like these Marni shorts... in 7th grade!)
