#unisex vintage pants

[nyc-looks]

Eason, 18

“I am wearing a vintage Lanvin blazer, vintage pants, Maison Margiela shirt, and vintage Prada shoes. I found the necklace in a vintage store near my school, I thought it has a kind of Walter Van Beirendonck’s style. I love unisex clothes, I love how clothes make a man beautiful. This is my everyday wear. The clothes that have strong attitude and personality attract me the most.”

Louis Tomlinson expands the 28 clothing universe with a football-inspired collection

The Doncaster-born singer, Louis Tomlinson, continues to expand his horizons beyond music with a sophisticated football-inspired collection.

POR: ALEJANDRO CARRILLO JULY 29, 2024

Louis Tomlinson’s clothing brand, 28 Clothing, presents a new collection under the theme “Home and Away”, featuring a captivating color palette that includes enchanting lavender hues. The brand name is a tribute to Louis’ favorite number, 28, which he also has tattooed on his hand.

Furthermore, it nods to his hometown, Doncaster, by including a flower inspired by the White Rose of York in the logo, a symbol widely used in the region, including Louis’ beloved Doncaster.

The brand stands out for its production of unisex clothing, demonstrating the versatility of each piece. The new collection includes turtlenecks, sweaters, football shirts, sweatpants, and socks.

Third round of success

This is the brand’s third collection, and like the previous ones, it is expected to sell out quickly. In fact, the Lavender Ecru sweater is already sold out. The previous collection, launched in December 2023, was also a resounding success.

The brand’s off-pitch style guide continues to evolve, featuring half-zip jerseys with digitized graphics and the characteristic “OFFICIAL PROGRAMME” inscription. Elegant short coats and checkered sportswear sets inspired by referees effortlessly transition from city to pitch, while turtlenecks with the number “28” arrive in light blue tones.

Color-blocked t-shirts, paneled skirts, and nylon pants complete the range, anticipating the next collection with floral embroidered MA1 bomber jackets arriving later this year.

Prices range from £15 to £120.

About 28

Louis Tomlinson, the former One Direction member, took a big step into the fashion world with the launch of his own clothing brand, 28. This name is not a random choice but a tribute to his squad number at Doncaster Rovers, his local football team since childhood.

Louis’ passion for football is evident in every piece of the 28 collection. The first line, inspired by vintage style, evokes the nostalgia of 70s and 80s football matches. Checkered tracksuits, t-shirts with the text “Official Programme”, and lightweight hooded sweatshirts are some of the garments that make up this summer collection.

28 is not just a clothing brand but a way to connect with a community. Louis seeks to create a space where football and fashion lovers can feel identified. The brand reflects his own personality, combining his casual and relaxed style with a touch of sophistication.

28 is a brand that represents Louis Tomlinson’s passion for football and fashion. With a design inspired by vintage style and a message of community, 28 has become one of the most popular clothing brands of the moment.

"Since it opened in 2002, Ateller New York has forged a fanatical following among art and fashion world insiders with an original sense of style. Last year the store moved from Nolita to Hudson Street just outside SoHo, rebranding itself as a concept store of 180 square meter that fuses art and fashion.

The store was designed according to the vision of the owner and art dealer, Constantin von Hasften. The loft space with impressive cast iron pillars and window frames that was built in 1910 is decorated with art pieces like a gallery. A black and white painting by Richard Serra, a felt suit sculpture by Joseph Beuys, photographs by Hiroshi Sugimoto and a metal chair designed by Rei Kawakubo in the fitting room are among the objects that reflect the owner's impeccable taste. The interior features custom-made display tables and hanger racks, giant three-sided mirrors and drawens built into the walls, all of which are put together with minimal, sophisticated taste Of particular note is the fact that sales grew 22% in 2009, the time when the recession was hitting the retail business hardest. "Any business is a challenge, whether in a recession or not, says co-owner and stylist Karlo Steel. This soring they created 17 items in collaboration with Yves Saint Laurent designer Stefano Pilati. "Most of our customers liked it, but for some it was a shock because they could not see the intersection between YSL and Atelier. We are working on other designers exclusive lines, but for now they must remain secret," says Steel. Regarding the Autumn & Winter season, he commented"I thought it was elegant, dark and slightly sinister"." -gap PRESS

Dear: Rivington

"Dear 55 was a small shop selling vintage and original accessories that opened on the Lower East Side in 2007. In July last year it moved to Rivington Street in the same neighborhood and changed its name to Dear: Rivington. The new store is spread over 230 square meter and the main floor is painted black and white where its line of original men's wear was launched. The second floor is a gallery space that features antique furniture and home furnishings as well as illustrations and etchings.

The clientele includes many designers, merchandisers, models, stylists and fashion Industry insiders. Apparently many of the vintage items of designer brands are purchased as design samples. I think it's because we do our own style instead of trendy stuff that makes our clients keep coming back," explains owner Moo Hi.

The store's interior is overseen by creative director Heyja Do, who also serves as the designer of the store's original merchandise. Racks found on the street, pushcarts, schien doors and other objects are painted black and white, with digits written as accents are especially eye-catching. Commodities are used to create visual merchandising with unique ideas and techniques. The bestselling original items are the handmade jewelry and antique lace accessories. The unisex pieces, especially jackets, pants and cut & sewn items are also very popular. "We are thinking that collaborating with other artists and making some interesting stuff, not only clothing, could become art installation projects" says Moo Hi of potential future endeavors." -gap PRESS

I love when you talk about clothes. How do you shop?

OH MAN valda my dude you have opened such a can of worms

so the tldr of it is: all over. it really depends on what specifically i'm looking for and like.... the size i need, etc. i get a god awful number of *really on point* fb ads for small clothing brands, plus i try and pick up shirts and such from indie artists where i can, plus a variety of fast/er fashion alternative brands, and thrifting. so much thrifting

however, i do have some pretty strict guidelines for what i will buy. ymmv on a lot of my specifics because a solid chunk of it is based off of how i like my clothes specifically to fit and everyone has their own jam, but the key things i think everyone should pay attention to are:

sizing/fit: do not compromise. there is some flexibility depending on the item and how willing you are to alter a thing, but it should always ALWAYS fit the way u like, or otherwise be comfortably tolerable in the ways it doesnt (sleeve length almost always gets me because i have very long arms, but i generally push my sleeves up anyway so its not a deal breaker, BUT the rise of my pants will absolute result in me never wearing them if it's not Right, hence ymmv)

everything you buy should either be immediately wearable in at least 3 full outfits from things you already own OR be a staple piece to build a new branch of outfit options off of that otherwise works with at least one key item already owned, like shoes

other things i really look at are under the cut cos it got long lmao

colour pallet (i own almost no bright colours; if there's colour, it is 80% of the time going to be pastel pink or lavender, though I've been branching out into brights and primary tones a little. i also own precisely Four brown items: two are CR merch, one is my vintage cat vest, and the fourth is a pair of absolutely gorgeous vintage boots that i got for hella cheap as a bootblacking restoration project)

cut/fit (depending on where i wanna present of the masc >< femme spectrum in that outfit; i like all my bottoms to sit on my (very high and narrow) waist, with skirts generally hitting at or below my knee and either very flared (circle or swing) or pleated. box cut "unisex" shirts should hit where the ball of my hips sit in my pelvis but femme cut shirts dont have to be that long they will be tucked in. i almost never wear something sleeveless, or if i do i wear a shirt under it, and the closest i get to a low cut shirt is shirts with keyholes, otherwise nothing lower than maybe an inch or two under my collarbone. my shoes are also generally high tops or boots and often have either a thick sole or a full out platform)

theme (this is how i wear really weird shit in very cohesive ways lmao; my tshirts are all generally ominous goth graphics OR cutesy kawaii vomit (or both lmao), patterns on my blouses and skirts (or pants, on the few patterned pants i have) are in similar veins (lotta halloween themes, lotta hearts) OR theyre very basic stripes/tartan that i mix and match with graphic shirts)

i also pay attention to quality as much as i can, and will absolutely not shop directly from the really aggressively fast fashion brands like shein, h&m, romwe, etc. they're always cut and made like shit and basically never look good on an actual person, but every now and then i'll find something cute in a thrift store that i can physically check for quality. vintage also tends to be better quality in general, especially if youre looking for natural fibers (the number of vintage silk dad shirts i own for summer is A Lot lmao), but can be cost and size prohibitive

aannnddddd some shops that i either routinely buy from or have been planning to buy from, for reference

"big" brands:

killstar, blackcraft clothing (generally traditional goth, better for straight sizes, decent quality for the price)

unique vintage, modcloth (vintage repro, both stockists for other vintage repro brands on top of selling their own things, generally pretty good quality across stocked and in house brands, most skirts and dresses have POCKETS, lotta killer sales, good size range)

smaller brands:

myviolet and foxblood (sibling companies run by the same people, myviolet is pastel kawaii stuff while foxblood is goth; they do sometimes carry the same cuts of things in different pallets. generally pretty good quality, does a lot of stuff in cotton or modal but not everything. size range is pretty stellar tho especially for a small brand)

disturbia clothing, straight to hell apparel (disturbia is more corporate goth leaning with a lot of business type wear in goth colors and patterns, straight to hell is very rockabilly leaning. both are pricey but their quality seems very sound (i have not bought from them though))

wicked clothing (sarcastic goth), two crow collective (chronically ill), thentvs (native american streetwear) (mostly tshirts, but really off beat ones. only bought from wicked clothing so far, just tryna decide how many more tshirts i need)

sleepy peach (retro repro but make it weird, lotta weird mens cardigans)

kei collective (stockist of a lot of indie designers in the western kawaii streetfashion scene, a wide variety of very cute to VERY WEIRD apparel and accessories)

die with your boots on (stockist, carries foxblood and a lot of other straight black goth basics. quality is on par with foxblood, size range can vary depending on brand, great place to peek for things like strangecvlt shoes or foxblood items that are out of stock on the main site)

art brands:

morning witchy (lot of botanical all over patterns on button up dad shirts, skirts, joggers, shorts, tshirts, and so on, with absolutely banger size range. gorgeous quality and absolutely beautiful designs. i want so many of their sweaters so bad)

stablercake (not specifically apparel focused but they do pretty frequent tshirt designs and theyre all great, ESPECIALLY if youre a furry. quality is always top tier unless its a bs manu error, in which case they typically offer a replacement or coupon when they find out something is fading weird, etc)

crescent creepers (weird goofy goth all over patterns, like 80s style cartoon bugs or deep sea creatures. sizing isnt great but if you're thinner, they have a lot of really fun overalls/shorteralls and button ups)

vetiver fox (very pretty goth patterns, has a lot of gorgeous swoopy skirts (with fuck off huge pockets) and some cool tank tops, is planning on maybe doing a run of regular tshirts too)

s2heart bunny (kawaii anime girl art shirts except soft and pretty and often sad or, as is the case with the ones i have, kawaii bunnies with nail bats and middle finger flags lmao)

egglien creations (weird bright very clowncore apparel, i have the cardigan from their collab with lulu van hoagland, who also does gorgeous work, just usually not apparel)

also a lot of the times, artists (especially tattoo artists) you follow will do tshirts and the like, which is where i get a lot of my really weird things

uuuuh yep thats it

JIMIN’S ‘WHO’ MV LIGHT ANALYSIS by @tahtiplau.bsky.social (revised 23.07.24)

Hi there!

(This analysis is also available on thtplau.wordpress.com if you don't have Tumblr account and can't read to the end. Also some prior basic knowledge about BTS and Jimin will give you more insight while reading this.)

[In brackets and red are my thoughts and notes, otherwise it's descriptive text. The symbolisms used in the MV have several meanings, I chose the ones I thought relevant. This is simply my interpretation, not fact!

Some parts I wasn’t sure about and may come to change my mind about them later as my mind processes. Some parts I couldn’t figure out what would fit the best or I was at a loss.  

I took into account the album’s songs and their lyrics as well. I’m not a native English speaker and my sources for explaining the symbolisms were not university worthy either – I did this for fun and my own enjoyment – and hopefully yours! 

I avoided looking at any analysis by others before doing mine, so these are my thoughts. Only one I saw was by revelEVERafter on IG. It was about the other side of the street being lit and colorful, and the other being dark and void of life (when the camera pans around near the end). Also thank you @shr-mooon.bsky.social for first pointing out the “pause” text in the end and giving me the tip of slowing down the video. 

Essentially, I understood the MV to be a journey through passion and love from childhood/early teenage years to adulthood. Love can transform you and your life.

I think the MV goes through the whole album like a story. The protagonist I use in my analysis is Jimin, with the assumption that he has written about his own experiences.

LET'S START!

In the starting scene we see a night street and a flyer comes up which says “WHO IS!! Tornado of love”. There’s also “1995’s TOP love song!!” On the right of the street is a lighted sign “The cinema COMING SOON” [The paper poster is like a weather forecast or a movie poster of what is to come in Jimin's life.]

We see Jimin walking to the street, he stops and a burning car drives by (driver side is burning).  

[There is a lot of cars in the MV. I believe that in this video, cars symbolize moving on the road of life.  

Fire is an important symbolism in this video. Fire may signal transformation and symbolize an individual’s transformation or transition. Fire can also symbolize passion.

This is the start of Jimin's love story.]

Jimin walks closer to the camera and we see a TV on the road, displaying an image of a person walking to the right. There’s a timer and marking ‘SP’ and 'play’. There's a heart behind the person and text (can’t read it). The TV is also partly burning.

[I believe the TVs/screens in the MV symbolize a heart. This one is burning and the figure inside is walking – there is passion in this heart, but no urgency, it’s strolling through the street of life right now. The passion here could be about a dream or a goal, or a desire for love.]

[(SP) in video = Standard play. Will have the highest possible video quality, and it’s the one usually used. LP in video = Long play. Runs slower for more recording time, but for lower video quality.) ]

Behind Jimin is SLOW DANCE records shop, Ryan vintage clothing store and a pizza store. More to the left is a video rental.

Jimin dances with four women on the street, all dressed somewhat masculine or unisex, leather jacket, camo pants, boots etc. (This is just my impression of the clothing.)

[I believe this might be Jimin's first tries at dating and having an interest to acquiring romantic love. I'm basing this on the shops we see on the street behind him at first.

Ryan Vintage is an actual vintage and thrift shop. Slow dance records also exists.] 

Scene changes to Jimin walking to the right, and a burning shopping cart goes by. There’s a TV in it with a heart and a running man. (Are those trash bags under the TV?) 

[A shopping cart can symbolize abundance, choice and the promise of fullfilment.

Things are now changing in Jimin's life and the desire and passion in his heart grow stronger, everything is accelerating and changing here. He's running after his goals. I believe he has found a crush or is in love now.

I would take the trash bags (if they are those) to mean that some of his passion is wasted, on the wrong track, or not appreciated? Oh god if his heart is sitting on a burning pile of trash...]  

A crow sits on the dumpster and takes flight. Workers with safety vests and helmets are behind Jimin, with packages, cones, ladder etc.

[I believe the crow here signifies a change in the narrative at this point, or a change soon to come in Jimin's life that was set in motion. Crows can symbolize death/REBIRTH and change. They can also forebode change as in “winds of change” - a TORNADO.] 

Six male dancers join Jimin. Afterwards four of them go to the right and three to the left. Jimin dances with the two remaining until they too leave to the right. Jimin walks to the left and scene change.  

[My guess here is that this could be BTS in their trainee days and the workers are staff. (Unfortunately the dancers, their choreos, clothes and their numbers didn't become clear to me here or later. I might have to think about them at a later point again.)] 

A text blinks on the screen “Auto calibration.”

On the right is a burning yellow car, the shopping cart with the TV falls on it. There was a teddy bear next to the car, it flies off because of the cart. On the TV is a heart without the man now. The TV falls on the ground.  

[Calibration can be needed if there have been changes or there is suspicion of faulty readings. So maybe something that was previously misunderstood now clears out.

It's also noteworthy that later, the 'SP', 'PLAY' etc video markings appear on the bigger screen and not in separate smaller TVs anymore. Before, love was a smaller part in Jimin's life and appeared just on the screens, whereas now it's become his actual life... Hence the calibration.

I believe the teddy bear represents childhood and innocence here and it coming to an end. I think this time period is either when BTS debuted or the time shortly after.

The direction Jimin had in his life is now completely changed, caused by his heart (the TV dropping on the burning car) and perhaps the realization of his dreams becoming finally true. (Jimin worked extremely hard during trainee days to debut as part of BTS. If you haven't you should also read the lyrics of Jimin's song 'Rebirth'.)]

In the back is the sign Oasis in green. On the right of it “Just call my name out loud, when ever you need me”, on the left of it a sign “Closer than this”. 

A woman comes from standing under the Oasis sign and Jimin walks to her. On the brick wall is again a sign “the cinema coming soon.” The number seven is on the left side in green writing.

[This building represents Bighit/Hybe building. The number seven on the wall represents BTS. Jimin’s song Closer than this and the lyrics together gives me the idea that he has now revealed his feelings and received some back.

All of these things form Jimin's Oasis, a safe place and a light in the dark for him. The person he next dances with comes to him from under that Oasis/safe haven.

The poster for 'the cinema' appears suspiciously often and in mvs like this, things probably don't get placed there "at random." Either it simply means all the media that Bighit and BTS have put out as shows, mvs, etc, OR maybe it's a hint about something new coming later, relating to Jimin's story.]

Jimin dances with the woman, we see another cinema sign on the street.

A crowd on the left is revealed. Some of them look scary, without shirts, a bit intimidating, some just stand. Someone in the crowd has a sign (can’t read it). There's an ambulance next to the crowd with the lights on. In the back of the crowd, it looks like a man is comforting a woman under his arm.

[The crowd represents the public, media and outside people; judging, rejecting, just standing there and not reacting, being sad/dissappointed. It really looks more like a mob, not very friendly. I think this crowd and the ambulance pose as threats that Jimin's love and passion and especially Jimin himself have to face. (Injury, critics, judgement, other's opinions, threats of violence etc.)]

The dancer kind of hugs Jimin and then pushes him to the left and now he dances with five guys. The crowd is again shown in the back, another sign with a picture of a blonde woman and “Who”.

[Everyone wanting to know who they date, but in idol culture in kpop that’s a scandal and big ‘NO’ to do. I think the changing camera angle signifies that the threat is there, constant but greater at times. (Why is there only five guys now with Jimin? Just choreo reasons?)] 

Six women join Jimin and the guys, and the angle changes to the Oasis background again. They dance and the groups change sides. Jimin dances with the blonde woman, then the dancers leave in different directions. 

A screen falls in front, with the text “Keep going>>” and “WHO” with red, and a picture of eyes. We see the burning yellow car again. The previous TV with the heart is gone.  

[Again, I believe the TV screens have represented Jimin’s heart and love. This screen is now filled with a person. I either understand the text here to mean “this is not the right person so keep going” OR to “keep going with this person,“ depending if the message is directed at us the audience, or Jimin. (He's definitely teasing us with the 'who'.) From now on there's no more screens. Except the one we're watching.

I'm not giving guesses who it is on the screen, though I know the popular opinions and do have one myself. You can form your own if you wish, though it's not any of our business really. But now he's made a mv and a song about it, so...]

Scene change. Jimin walks on the safe sidewalk and the dancers pass him by. In the start it reads “REWIND” “LP” and the timing of around 1.32.05 comes up and starts counting down. The scene doesn’t go backwards, however. 

[Reminder: (LP = Long play, longer recording time, lower quality)

This baffled me, but I came to the conclusion that maybe it means that for a long time, there was love but it didn’t necessarily get to shine it’s brightest yet. The video quality also drops here.

We usually rewind when we want to get back to the beginning or want to review something. I would also see this as the 'SERENADE' part - there's slow dancing, nice clothes, a restaurant and a movie rental - it's a DATE! Jimin is low-key dating/in a relationship.] 

Jimin first 'bumps' (interacts) into a woman who briefly grabs/touches him(?), then pauses next to another woman, and a crow flies of from a car hood now. [Again pointing out a change/rebirth incoming, this time it's going to be huge (the tornado).] 

He keeps walking and does a small dance with the blonde woman from before, then turns to the camera. [He interacted with three dancers, so maybe third time's a charm but in what? Again the dancers and choreos I didn't get it.]  

Jimin starts walking on the street, off the sidewalk. The ‘LP’ and counting numbers disappear before Jimin steps on the road and ‘PLAY’ starts blinking. Behind Jimin a tornado starts, lifting cars and other things, then a rainbow static comes up across the screen briefly.  

[After this 'long play' period, Jimin walking on the sidewalk and playing it safe, maybe going back-and-forward with his relationship while dating or taking time to think about his relationship and keeping it secret from public knowledge, Jimin steps on the road of life again and here comes the Tornado of Love™!

So the love he’s had for so long is now finally in BLOOM.] 

Jimin keeps walking towards the camera, between two cars. Behind, the tornado destroys the sign with a picture of a man and letters “(c)hter” (hater? cheater?) and illuminated text ‘closer’.

Sparks/fireworks fly off on the sides, also especially near the ‘bliss’ sign.

[The all transforming Tornado of Love™ sweeps out haters and fears in Jimin’s life (or he doesn't care anymore) and sends off sparks and fireworks. Now, fireworks can symbolize freedom and unity, the ability to overcome adversity and also symbolize having found your true love!

Something wonderful changed and it brought freedom and/or true love! I would go with both, hence the BLISS!

(I’m also still hoping for a song called ‘Bliss’ from Jimin, kkkkk)] 

12 dancers join Jimin in front of four cars. The cars have headlights on but they are idling. Firework-like sparkles keep shooting off in the back. Street lamps and a car fall in front of Jimin and the dancers.

[A yellow bicycle is on the left side of the street and another one on the right side with a darker color. A bicycle is a symbol of hope and progress. The color yellow is often a symbol of optimism and happiness.]

The camera pans 360 degrees, and the dancers have left when it comes back. Jimin walks towards the four cars. There are drivers in them. 

[Jimin was finally living his best life and enjoying it, but now Jimin’s life is standing still, the cars are waiting to move again on the road of life.

He’s going to the military service. (There are four cars, so maybe they represent RM, Tae, Jimin and Jungkook going at the same time and putting their lives on hold?)] 

Jimin walks past the cars, away from the camera and a screen static with the text “PAUSE” comes up for a second.

[The love story we’ve been told is now in ‘PAUSE’ mode.]

The mv ends and we get the smeraldo flower, 'Who' logo, a dash of rainbow color and the text ‘PLAY’. 

[Smeraldo flower is a fictional flower and originates from BTS’ previous album lore in Love Yourself era, and essentially symbolizes ’feelings that couldn’t be delivered’ or ’the truth untold’. Please look up the lore if you haven’t, there’s plenty of information about it online.

When we get the Truth Untold and the answer to ‘who’, the story will continue again, it’s not over.

His heart is now waiting and it's definitely taken.] 

END NOTES:

This is not facts, just my intepretation of the mv.

I tried to make this not about ‘who’, but simply about the story told in the MV. 😊 

I’m sure I missed a lot, I didn't even try it with all the car brands, colors.... So many things. What annoys me the most is that I have no revelation about the dancers yet.

But I think I’ve had enough of analyzing for a while and would love to hear your thoughts. Do you agree on my analysis or disagree? What did I miss or misintepret?

Sincerely, 

Tahtiplau

The men’s fashion trends in 2025 will reflect a shift towards individuality, functionality, and eco-conscious choices, offering a fresh perspective on how men dress and present themselves. From tech-infused clothing to gender-fluid designs, here’s a deep dive into what the future holds for men’s style.

1. Sustainability Takes the Spotlight

One of the most significant men’s fashion trends in 2025 will be the emphasis on sustainability. As environmental awareness grows, brands will prioritize eco-friendly materials like organic cotton, recycled fabrics, and biodegradable textiles. Expect to see innovative materials such as mushroom leather, algae-based dyes, and recycled ocean plastics making their way into men’s wardrobes. Capsule wardrobes and timeless designs will also gain traction, encouraging men to invest in high-quality, versatile pieces that stand the test of time.

2. Tech-Infused Clothing

By 2025, technology will revolutionize men’s fashion. Smart clothing, equipped with sensors and wearable tech, will become more mainstream. Imagine jackets with built-in heating systems, shirts that monitor your health, or sneakers that adjust their fit based on your activity. These innovations will not only enhance functionality but also redefine how men interact with their clothing. Tech-infused fashion will seamlessly blend style with practicality, making it a key trend in men’s fashion trends in 2025.

3. Bold Colors and Patterns

Neutral tones will take a backseat as bold colors and patterns dominate men’s fashion in 2025. Vibrant hues like electric blue, neon green, and fiery orange will make a statement on runways and streets alike. Geometric patterns, abstract prints, and retro-inspired designs will add a playful yet sophisticated touch to men’s wardrobes. This trend reflects a growing desire for self-expression and individuality, encouraging men to step out of their comfort zones and experiment with their style.

4. Oversized Silhouettes

Comfort will remain a top priority in men’s fashion trends in 2025, and oversized silhouettes will lead the way. From baggy trousers and loose-fitting blazers to oversized shirts and coats, this trend offers a relaxed yet stylish look. Layering will also play a key role, with men combining different textures and lengths to create dynamic outfits. The oversized trend is perfect for those who want to balance comfort with a modern, fashion-forward aesthetic.

5. Gender-Fluid Fashion

The boundaries between men’s and women’s fashion will continue to blur in 2025. Gender-fluid clothing will become more mainstream, with designers creating pieces that can be worn by anyone, regardless of gender. Expect to see flowing fabrics, unisex cuts, and androgynous styles that challenge traditional norms. This trend reflects a broader cultural shift towards inclusivity and self-expression, making it a defining feature of men’s fashion trends in 2025.

6. Retro Revival

Nostalgia will play a big role in men’s fashion in 2025, with retro styles making a comeback. Think 90s-inspired streetwear, 70s-inspired flared pants, and 80s-inspired bold prints. Vintage aesthetics will be reimagined with a modern twist, offering a fresh take on classic looks. This trend will appeal to those who appreciate the charm of past decades while staying current with contemporary fashion.

7. Functional and Versatile Outerwear

Outerwear will become more functional and versatile in 2025, reflecting the growing demand for practicality. Jackets and coats with multiple pockets, detachable layers, and weather-resistant materials will be in high demand. Styles like puffer jackets, trench coats, and utility vests will dominate, offering both warmth and style. This trend aligns with the increasing popularity of outdoor activities and urban exploration.

8. Statement Accessories

Accessories will play a crucial role in men’s fashion trends in 2025, adding personality and flair to outfits. Expect to see bold statement pieces like chunky chains, oversized watches, and colorful scarves. Bags will also become more functional, with crossbody bags and backpacks designed for both style and utility. Footwear will see a mix of futuristic designs and retro sneakers, offering something for every taste.

9. Cultural Influences

Globalization and cultural exchange will continue to shape men’s fashion in 2025. Designers will draw inspiration from traditional clothing and textiles from around the world, incorporating them into modern designs. Expect to see patterns, embroidery, and fabrics influenced by African, Asian, and Middle Eastern cultures. This trend will celebrate diversity and bring a unique richness to men’s fashion.

10. Customization and Personalization

In 2025, men will seek clothing that reflects their individuality. Customization and personalization will be key trends, with brands offering made-to-measure services and customizable designs. From monogrammed shirts to personalized sneakers, men will have more opportunities to create unique pieces that showcase their personality. This trend will cater to the growing demand for exclusivity and self-expression.

Conclusion

The year 2025 promises to be an exciting time for men’s fashion, with trends that blend innovation, sustainability, and self-expression. From tech-infused clothing and bold colors to gender-fluid designs and retro revivals, men’s fashion trends in 2025 will offer something for everyone. As the industry continues to evolve, one thing is clear: the future of men’s fashion is all about embracing individuality, functionality, and a commitment to a better world. Whether you’re a trendsetter or a minimalist, 2025 will have plenty of stylish options to explore.

Unzipping the Hypes of 2025: Streetwear’s Next Level in the Game

Trends nowadays go fast and fade fast as well, it goes month after month. You might plan to purchase a piece of item or clothing that you've been eyeing for months, and once you buy it, the hype already drifted. Then, another hot item gets in the hype. This happens with the several evolving styles in fashion in the present time, where there becomes a division for each style and people fall into their preferred categories which they freely express themselves. Most Gen Zs aren’t afraid of truly expressing themselves through fashion, which made a huge move in the fashion community today. There are several styles going around at the moment, but streetwear always remains original. Young people come up with new things on how to spice up streetwear but still having its classic essence that dated way back in the days. 

In this year, many trends are opt to come that can pave the way into streetwear, and maybe bring something unique to the game. In the previous year, there entered the combinations of streetwear in other styles ‘cause Gen Zs are fond of experimenting new and different pieces of clothing while mixing them with one another. Basically, the recent years became a revival of the trends back then, where there can be a specific clothing, item, or accessory that’ll be the focus of so called short time ‘era’ or by other people. Since various clothes are being brought to the streetwear scene, a classic trend would still be allocating comfort with the use of oversized and baggy clothes. Whereas brands are bound to produce the most premium fabrics especially for jackets or hoodies. Along with the unisex silhouettes are also in, in the popularization of popular boxy fits and tailored pants suited for all genders. The market is dominated by gender-neutral collections that encourage uniqueness and self-expression. For the revival of vintage pieces, Y2k aesthetics will surely be in the frame, especially for the females. I believe sportswear like jerseys will make its way into the scene as well just like how it did the past two years, it's also an easy find, even in local thrift shops. In relation to the use of athleisure wear. 

The main trend that most people see coming is sustainability where a lot of DIY and upcycling is done by creative people and artists. They make the streetwear pieces come more to life with a hint of their own creativity and sometimes style. There many influences that trends come from such as from artists and celebrities, online platforms, youth culture and many more.

This trend brings an element of sensuality while maintaining sophistication through strategic layering.

7. Statement Accessories: Chunky Jewelry and Oversized Bags

Fashion cycles continue to bring back nostalgic trends, and 2025 is no exception. Y2K fashion with low-rise jeans, cargo pants, and baby tees remains popular.

10. Ultra-Feminine Aesthetics: Bows, Ruffles, and Balletcore

The rise of hyper-feminine aesthetics is redefining 2025’s fashion. Balletcore, featuring soft pastels, tulle skirts, and ballet flats, is trending.

Fashion Trends for 2024: What’s Hot and What’s Not

The fashion world is constantly changing, with new trends emerging every season. As 2024 unfolds, it will bring a mix of nostalgia, bold statements, and futuristic styles. From runways to street style, here are the top trends that will dominate this year.

1. Tech-Inspired Fashion: The Future is Now

The fusion of technology and fashion is getting stronger year after year, and this is no exception for 2024. Designers are infusing their collections with advanced materials, wearable technology, and futuristic aesthetics. Think garments with built-in LED lights, fabrics that change temperature, or accessories with augmented reality. These pieces are not only trendy, but they are also practical, merging the virtual world with real-world utility.

Wear it with metallic fabrics, holographic designs, and any garment that incorporates a touch of technology. Smart jackets, bags with built-in LEDs, and shoes that come with charging capabilities will be a standout piece in your wardrobe.

2. Sustainability takes center stage

Sustainable fashion is taking center stage in 2024. With growing awareness about environmental concerns, more and more brands are adopting eco-friendly practices. They may use recycled materials or follow carbon-neutral production methods. Ethical fashion is gaining acceptance among the mainstream, and consumers are increasingly looking for brands that are in line with their beliefs.

How ​​to wear it: Opt for garments made from organic cotton, recycled polyester, or innovative plant-based fabrics. Vintage shopping and swapping clothes with friends are also trendy ways to embrace sustainability without compromising on style.

3. Y2K Revival: Nostalgia is back

The early 2000s are making a strong comeback. The Y2K aesthetic, characterized by low-rise jeans, butterfly clips, baby doll tees, and chunky sneakers, is back in full force. Think of it as a fun, nostalgic nod to the styles that dominated the turn of the millennium, but with a modern twist.

How ​​to style it: Pair low-rise jeans with crop tops, layer fun accessories like beaded bags or chunky belts, and don’t forget retro sunglasses. From casual daytime looks to evening looks, Y2K fashion is all about having fun and being daring.

4. Gender-neutral fashion: pushing boundaries

Gender fluidity in fashion is becoming more common in 2024. Designers are creating collections that break traditional gender norms, offering pieces that can be worn by everyone, regardless of gender identity. Loose silhouettes, oversized tailoring, and unisex pieces are all part of this trend.

How ​​to style it: Look for oversized blazers, neutral colors, and minimalist cuts. Brands like Tel far, Off-White, and more are leading the way in gender-neutral collections. All of these pieces can be styled in a multitude of ways to help you express yourself in one way or another.

5. More is more: Maximalism

After years of minimalist fashion dominating the scene, maximalism is making a comeback. This trend is all about hype: bold prints, contrasting patterns, layered textures, and vibrant colors. The essence of maximalism lies in encouraging people to be more creative and individualistic by fusing styles that shouldn’t be mixed according to traditional notions.

How ​​to wear it: Don’t be afraid to mix and match colors, textures, and patterns. Pair a neon floral jacket with metallic pants, or pair animal prints with polka dots. The key is to go big or not.

6. Athleisure with a twist

Athleisure is still a dominant trend, but in 2024 it’s all about a new interpretation of the style, thinking of chic sportswear, with transitions from the gym to dinner plans. It’s no longer just meant for working out, but also for all-day wear because it has technical fabrics and therefore prioritizes comfort and performance.

How ​​to wear it: Try luxe joggers paired with a fitted blazer or sleek leggings paired with a trendy sweater. Adding bold colors and textures like metallics and animal prints to your sportswear can take your athleisure style to a whole new level.
