White Wardrobe for Spring Summer 2011

Not for the faint of heart (or the messy eater) a top to toe ensemble of white is all the rage for the spring and summer seasons of 2011. The look is bold and daring and is the perfect way to still cool under the hot sun.

Have a yacht party or a garden event on your calendar? An all white suit can be a great way to stay fresh and crisp when you've got to be semi-formal in the heat. Throw in just a dash of color by way of scarf or shoes. Else go full blast with a white shirt and white tie. Below (L to R): Hermes, Dolce & Gabbana, and Gianfranco Ferre.

A white suit may be a hard sell for many men. But you can still do the all-white look by adding a white blazer to white separates. See how (L to R) Neil Barrett, Roberto Cavalli, D&G pulled it off in the runway shots below.

Wearing bright white from top to bottom will certainly be a challenge for most. But when you add in pale cream the task gets much easier - and less blinding! Below (L to R): Christophe Lemaire, Ermenegildo Zegna, and Junya Watanabe.
