Fashion Week: 6 trends we’re adopting from the men’s wardrobe right now

From the catwalk to the streets, boundaries are moving this season. Fashion Week confirms a strong dialogue with the men’s wardrobe. Style gains in freedom, without losing in precision.

6 men’s wardrobe trends that are taking hold

In recent shows, editors have highlighted 6 trends from the men’s dressing room. Fashion Week is all about ties, loose-fitting shirts and tailored Bermuda shorts. The result is a clean, practical and contemporary silhouette.

Ties can be worn with a cropped jacket or cardigan. In addition, the rugby- or soccer-inspired jersey gains a chic place, worn over a shirt. Loafers + socks create a graphic rhythm that’s easy to read and repeat.

As for coats, the oversized trench imposes a fluid, almost protective fall. By contrast, the leather jacket retains its strength, but opens up to straighter cuts. As a result, the mix of professional and sportswear wardrobes is one of balance rather than opposition.

“When codes cross, the look gains in clarity without losing its comfort.”

Ties, maillots, Bermuda shorts: codes revisited

The return of the tie doesn’t sound like a strict reminder. In the silhouettes seen at Fashion Week, for example, it is worn looser, over an oversized striped shirt. This gesture softens the line and even modernizes a man’s jacket.

Elongated cut and clean fall: the shirt stretches the silhouette without stiffness. Worn open over a t-shirt, it structures straight jeans with ease.

• Start with a neutral base, then add a masculine accent.
• Treat the tie like a piece of jewelry rather than a uniform.
• Choose a loose-fitting shirt to balance a fitted bottom.
• Compose clean contrasts: smooth leather, cool wool, dense cotton.
• A pair of moccasins with white socks.

Wear these pieces every day

To adopt these codes, start with the context of your day. In addition, choose 3 clear anchors: a structured jacket, a simple bottom, a strong accessory. Fashion Week inspires, but your agenda sets the final tempo.

Tailored Bermuda shorts work well with a loose blazer and loafers. Then add a high sock to give rhythm to the leg, especially if the shorts remain sober. This trio remains precise, yet comfortable from early morning to late.

The long-sleeved jersey slips under a loose trench coat, rather than a down jacket. Also, as several Fashion Week events have shown, rugby stripes can be worn with cool wool pants. This sportswear-formal contrast produces a bright, urban look that’s easy to live with.

Soft knit and contrasting collar: the field spirit becomes urban, especially under a straight jacket. As a result, the graphic effect remains clear, even with wide-leg cotton pants.

Materials, proportions, care

Work on proportions without changing everything at once. So, first increase the ease of one piece, then reduce that of another. Fashion Week is a compass, not a rule.

When it comes to materials, aim for dense cotton, technical wool and supple leather. These textures withstand daily use and age better. As a result, you’ll look better and last longer.

Why these influences last

These gestures are reassuring, because they simplify the decision in the morning. What’s more, the rigor of men’s cuts enhances the body’s movement. The result looks constructed, yet breathes.

Ties elongate the silhouette without constricting. On the other hand, the moccasin with sock provides chic support, even with raw denim. Oversized trench coats cover everything from suits to jogging suits.

Finally, the borrowed codes feed the season’s creativity and stimulate the eye. In short, we come back to them every year during Fashion Week, because the balance between utility and style is so striking. A reliable basis for adjusting your wardrobe at your own pace.
