On the second stop of his 9-City Tour and Collection Launch via Neiman Marcus, Creative Director and Founder Brett Johnson makes his way over to Neiman Marcus - Atlanta for another trunk show. The Brett Johnson Collection was initially launched in 2013 with three footwear styles that gained phenomenal attention from fans and eventually stirred an interest to see more of this aesthetic displayed in apparel. To date, The Brett Johnson Collection now provides men's outerwear and knitwear via www.brettjohnson.co, www.neimanmarcus.com as well as through select Neiman Marcus locations nationwide and in a few specialty boutiques. Brett Johnson's collection is described as "a distinct brand of menswear which offers premium apparel that exudes style, sophistication, and edge for the global lifestyle."

When speaking to Brett Johnson at the Neiman Marcus trunk show event in Atlanta, I got a chance to ask about what inspires his designs. Brett shared that when he is developing and manifesting a concept, it always begins with a theme that has touched him personally. An example that he references is how he was inspired by the Sundance Film Festival that he attends annually. He shared how several years ago, he was inspired to pick a 1989 theme of an Armani Saks suit and reinterpret a similar look in a more modern form. Brett also mentioned that they are doing their first presentation in January styled by the world renowned fashion stylist June Ambrose in New York. This autumn/winter 2016 collection will introduce both woven shirts and trousers in addition to the items currently available.
