If you've been paying any attention at all to men's fashion over the past 5 or so years, you'll instantly recognize the name Cloak.

Creator and lead designer Alexandre Plokhov, who was once a pattern maker for Marc Jacobs, launched the runaway line and later took on a partner -- fellow Marc Jacobs alum German-born, LA-raised Robert Geller -- before the untimely demise of the brand -- and Plakhov's move to working Donatella Versace -- a few years back.

Not even close to being ready to throw in the towel, the time was ripe for Geller in early 2007 to branch out and design his own menswear line, aptly named Robert Geller.

The line has won critical acclaim and is a favorite of fashionistos (sorry I had to!) the world around. Not surprising, given Geller's knack for cut and fit married with amazing fabrics and little twists that make each piece just a little more interesting than most. His mix of tailored yet loose cuts with hard yet soft looks is perfectly geared towards today's fashion conscious gents, never going too far in one direction or another. Even with the Fall/Winter collections, which tend to be much darker and more sober than the Spring/Summer collections, Geller's touch is just right.

The line can be found at some of the best boutiques worldwide, including Fred Segal (LA), Lane Crawford (Hong Kong), Isetan (Tokyo), and Odin (New York), where Geller had the privelege of being a featured designer this past summer in Odin's ever-changing pop up shop DEN in the East Village.

You can check out his current collection on Odin's website, where he's currently one of their featured designers. If you go to the homepage and follow the links, you'll also find an interview with the designer. Don't forget to check out Geller's site, where you'll find pics of the past two seasons, and the write ups and photos on Style.com for his Fall/Winter 2008 and Spring/Summer 2009 collections to get a better idea of what his design aesthetic is.

Geller presents his Fall/Winter 2009 collection on Friday, February 13th. Where and when? That you'll have to figure out for yourself. See you there!
