“MARTIN ASBJØRN brings all the boys to the yard and they’re like, it’s better than yours, damn right it’s better than yours…”
The menswear designer is bringing sexy back with a whole crew of boys next door sporting the SS18 collection.

With a strong reference to the golden age of MTV red carpets and reality shows of the early 2000s, milkshake and pop colors bring a breath of fresh air to classic tailoring.

As a graduate of Men’s Tailoring at the prestigious Design and Technical Tailoring Academy, MARTIN ASBJØRN knows how to nurture boys to men as reflected in this season’s slogan: “My Business is My Pleasure.”
