All Black

By Matt | November 12, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley You all know that my fave combo of all time is definitely black on black. I love the statement that monochrome makes, and being a tall, pale figure in all black, it definitely cuts a striking look. However to avoid looking like a makeup artist on a break, there’s a few…

Modern Resort with White Label Noba

By Matt | October 23, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley The Ascot mum brigade was out in full force last week to witness Tracey Watkins debut her SS line for White Label Noba. Transforming the Soleil Pool Bar into a pineapple haven, models strutted the length of the bar clad in the decidedly resort like line. Taking inspiration from 60s riviera…

Turtleneck’s Are Still In

By Matt | August 10, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley Formerly reserved for 90s accounting students and librarians, the humble turtleneck has been unfairly loathed more times than Kim K has had plastic surgery. But thankfully this throwback is no longer in the bad books. The classic black turtleneck (or rollneck if we really want to get fancy) brings both class and…

Resurfacing Isn’t A Bad Word – Ft. Alpha-H

By Matt | August 7, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley Resurfacing is such a harsh, visceral word. Especially when applied to skin, exfoliating, refreshing and toning are far more subtle. But I dislike subtle. If you’re going to exfoliate, I want a whole damn new layer of skin. That’s where Alpha-H comes in. This stunningly packaged brand is purposely designed with…

By Matt | May 15, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley Model Citizen’s designer Eeshaal Niranjan should be very pleased with himself. Setting out to create a luxe streetwear-inspired collection that combines new age fabrics with old world tailoring is not an easy task. Previewing the collection the other day, I was wowed by the statement coats and the exquisite quality of…

New Age Businesswear

By Matt | April 28, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley Reinventing old classics is one the things I’m all about over here on Infirm of Purpose. Taking the quintessential business attire that every man already has in his closet, and subverting it to make it bang on trend, classy and still suitable for the office. The typical white button up can…

Let’s Talk: ApoteKah

By Matt | April 22, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley If you didn’t know already, there’s a brand new player in the Aussie skincare game, and damn are they making a splash. I’m obvs referring to the cool cats at ApoteKah. This Melbourne company started by two entrepreneurial pharmacists has already captivated my heart and provide all that my minimalist aesthetically…

Nightshade

By Matt | April 8, 2016 |

Words by Matt Huxley I’m fully excited for winter. There it is. Damn the Aussie stereotype of tanned skin and crashing waves, all I want is chilling cold and translucent skin. With the advent of Autumn, I can finally start breaking out the long layers and draped clothing that gets me going. But casual dressing at…
