Quickies: Coming soon from Fashion Week, Aitor Throup, Gant and Converse

Craving a sneak peek of what's to come at New York Fashion Week? Thirteen of the most anticipated menswear designers gave glimpses of what their collections will look like coming down the runway in a mere three -- yes, three -- days. [The Upgrader]

Leading the brigade of menswear designers to watch is Spanish/British visionary Aitor Throup, whose provocative style is just as interesting as his conceptual process: releasing a single outfit every season, with the whole process becoming the product. Sounds ballsy. [The Independent]

Smell This: Gant will release a new men's fragrance next month called Gant Silver. Developed by Richard Herpin, who says his aim was to create a scent "that would strike the right balance between the crispness of the outdoors and the mysterious yet elegant nature of the Gant man." [Now Smell This]

It's hard to improve a classic, but Converse is giving it a shot. In celebration of the iconic shoe brands centennial, they're taking designs from their archive and giving them a do-over, which, for the most part, is making for some eye-catching footwear. Some are only seeing limited releases in Tokyo, so brush on your Japanese if you're dying for a pair. [Material Interest]
