    (News) Plokhov/Cloak Revival

    Not sure if this is the right place to post, but:

    "Alexandre Plokhov, who shuttered his acclaimed New York-based menswear label Cloak a few years ago, will launch a new signature menswear label during Paris men's week this January. Plokhov won the 2005 CFDA Swarovski Perry Ellis Award for Menswear, was the runner-up in the 2004 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund award, and was featured in the 2005 fashion documentary Seamless. He shuttered his label in 2006 due to "partnership issues," according to a statement at the time from his publicist."

    and

    "MEN’S ROOM: Paris is burning on the men’s wear front, with a slew of designers poised to join the next fashion week, from Jan. 20 to 23. Alexandre Plokhov, who shuttered his Cloak label in 2006 and did a three-year stint at Versace, said he plans to launch a signature collection and has rented a Paris gallery to unveil it. Another New York-based designer, Yigal Azrouël, is angling to show his men’s collection on a Paris runway. European names are also muscling onto the calendar, with iconic Left Bank brand Arnys plotting its first runway outing, and Thierry Mugler presenting the first men’s collection by Romain Kremer under the artistic direction of Nicola Formichetti. Finally, rumor has it Maison Martin Margiela is also mulling its first runway show for its men’s wear."

      Heard about this a few weeks ago but wasn't sure there was any truth to it. Now I'm excited to hear more...

              Yes, I suppose. But I have to say, I remember the last few Cloak seasons as uninspiring. Hopefully, this will be vintage Cloak though.

                Hopefully it won't look like Cloak at all

                  perhaps a new & fresh interpretation of his 2004 lineup...

                        Who said this has to look like Cloak? I'm sure Plokhov wasn't sitting in a cave for the last few years, thinking we're all still wearing super tight jeans and printed t-shirts.

                            Well I'm excited. Cloak hit a spot for me that no one has hit since.

                              So skirts and high-necked leather jackets?

                              I want Plokhov to do complex tailoring.
