The Latest Trends in Men's Fashion

This season, men's fashion and music go together. The new style is centered on rock and roll, yet elegance still imposes her rules to prevent mistakes. We can find leather jackets and thin pants in the collections of  Dsquared2, Costume National, John Richmond, Paul Smith, Versace, Gucci and Vivienne Westwood. The jacket is longer and more structured. The trench coat once again becomes a must-have item epitomizing masculinity. But the accessories remain what most define this rock and roll attitudet. Men have totally adopted what was too feminine only a short while ago. Their silhouettes now feature bags, scarves, hats and glasses. These have all become necessities.

Another trend is the arrival of the James Bond style for any moment of the day. Tuxedos can be worn for any occasion, and are featured in the collections of Giorgio Armani, John Richmond, Neil Barrett, Yohji Yamamoto, Dolce & Gabbana, Gaultier, Louis Vuitton, Emanuel Ungaro, Lanvin, Missoni, Dries van Noten, McQueen, Prada and Dior.

With this return of classic elegance, designers have naturally also reintroduced knitted cardigans. These sweaters’ mesh and its soft movements serve to complete this new male look in Alexandro dell’Acqua, Missioni of course, Paul Smith, Hermes, Ungaro, Dries van Noten, Galliano and Calvin Klein.

Today, fashion has become about fantasy. Indeed, designers are always considering the world's state and their clients' desires, and this season, to counter the effects of the current economic crisis, they released the full magic of dreams and imagination. So we must now allow for this transitional period when showing off is no longer desirable. Today’s sensibility reserves a special place for artistic expression.
