Fall 2023 Fashion Week New York NYFW, London LFW, Milan MFW, and Paris PFW

Couture Spring 2023 Fashion Shows and Trends

Couture Spring 2023 fashion shows coincide with men’s fashion week.

Milan Fashion Week SPring 2023 MFW SS23 Runway Trends, Womenswear, Menswear

It’s about time menswear shed the basic-bitch mold it cast itself…

Christopher John Rogers was fun and playful for Pre-Fall 2022, from the interesting dart-manipulation to the prints and unusual silhouettes. The color palette was highly saturated…

Dior Men’s Pre-Fall 2022: Beatnik “Shape In a Drape”

Dior Men’s Pre-Fall 2022 Fashion Show was Beatnik Heavy with the Kerouac prints, featuring a supple leather trench coat and shearling aviator jacket, waxed twill trench coat, loads of knits, and lustrous velvet trousers and Fair Isle knit paillette beanies sure to make an “everything plus” fella look like a “shape in a drape.” The leather…
