Mens Fashion Week: Trends Part II

Here is Part II of trends I saw during mens fashion week in London, Paris and Milan.

Denim on Denim:

Wearing denim on denim is a popular trend this season and is going to be next spring as well. Some designers kept the denim basic while others chose their denim to have different washes or embellished some time of print or embroidery to them.

Oversized T's:

A big trend right now is wearing the longer hemmed t-shirts. But for next spring instead of longer t's its going to be all about the 'boxy t'. They came in all different colors and fabrics such as nylon, leather, and sweat shirt material. Most designers paired them with shorts or slim fashion pants.

Long Coats:

Basically every designer was showing long coats and top coats, which hearing that makes most people think of winter. The fabrication is what makes these coats fit for summer. Made of linen cotton blends, nylon, and merino wool these coats are cool and fashionable for those chilly spring night out on the town.

Jumpsuits:

A new trend I like is the jumpsuit, which I feel is replacing the overalls we saw for summer 2015. They took the race car driver jumpsuit and made it feel more luxurious using leather, nylon, denim, and heavy satin. Designers also added pockets, belts and unconventional shoes to help style these jumpsuits.

All-Over Prints:

A lot of designers were showing head to toe printed looks. Many chose to make printed suits with the jackets and pants in the same print. Some showed bold in your face prints and other chose more subtle prints. I like them, but only for certain special occasions.

Balmain Spring Summer 2016 PFW

Here are my favorite looks from the Balmain SS16 runway show:

For Balmains first mens runway show Olivier took safari to the next level. There were intricately crafted leather jackets, baggy dropped crotch pants, tiger stripped jackets and lots of gold. I loved the color scheme of black, cream, tobacco and khaki. He also introduced gladiator sandals and waist belts for men. A few of my favorite pieces were the dropped crotch slouchy leather pants, the tobacco bomber, and all of the bags!

Dior Homme Spring Summer 2016 PFW

Here are my favorite looks from the Dior Homme SS16 runway show:

The Dior Homme show was preppy with a dash of toughness. They showcased argyle sweaters with camo pants and suiting with tons of zippers and side pockets. It was styled casual but the pieces were definitely far from it. With croc bomber jackets, croc top coats and tan leather bags, the luxury was prevalent. I loved almost every outfit, they were styled perfectly. What was also cool were the reinvented suits with all the zippers to add a little edge to the preppy looks. Some of my favorite pieces are the camo skinny pants, the leather croc bomber, and the oversized tan coat with the camo lining.
