There is a desire for renewed elegance this season at VHIMW 2011.

Troy Costa in these times of new austerity is inspired by concepts left in the dark for too long. BEING IN THE BLACK is an expression used to indicate prosperity. Tuxedos represent the ultimate crescendo in men’s luxury wear & The Jacket, once again reinstates itself as the undisputed protagonist of the male wardrobe.
 
Formal wear explores new expressive, urban & contemporary codes giving life to tailored ensembles with new proportions that focus the attention on the shoulders. Shaped silhouettes encounter cutting edge technology. Fabrics are often quilted, lacquered & heat sealed, not leaving aside any embellishment & decoration to concentrate on shape & cleanliness of cut & line – which is the signature of every Troy Costa design.
 
The Troy Costa man not only gives in to whims, once reserved for women such as sequins, lurex, velvet, but he also re affirms his virility without exasperating it. The Troy Costa man is ‘masculine without being macho’. So confident that he can wear rosettes, carry a clutch or a handbag.
