5 Unmissable Moments From Menswear SS/23 Fashion Week

However, in between these moments, while most of the models are taking to Europe on vacation and we’re busily budgeting to be able to afford the latest Bottega Veneta or The Row offering, a whole month of fashion shows dedicated to unveiling the latest menswear trends are taking place.

Welcome to menswear fashion week.

Of course, for the binary fashion lover you may find yourself asking why it’s worthwhile paying attention to this season? Afterall, you’re not likely to be shopping in the menswear section, right?

Wrong. With fashion becoming more genderless and co-ed presentations becoming more commonplace than ever before, masculine codes are seeing into the collection of womenswear designers.

But this unconventional reclaiming of a typical masculine trope has its roots in bespoke silhouettes pioneered by the menswear tailors slewed across Savile Row.

The most recent Spring/Summer 2023 season has once again changed the way that all people across the gender spectrum should look at fashion. Designers are no longer prescribing certain silhouettes or garments for men and women.

At Prada, Raf Simons and Miuccia Prada are pushing you to think outside the box by inverting our expectations for outerwear, while JW Anderson is blurring the lines between fashion and wearable art.

Below, we round up every important lesson from mens fashion month, so far.

While most of the time when we’re perusing the menswear section it’s for a loved one. However, this binary type of thinking will have you missing out on some of the most covetable pieces and one-of-one styles that no one else will be wearing (because no one is looking there).

Versace debuted the most-sought after striped suit pants that are perfect for challenging ‘that girl’ energy at the boardroom and the bar.

Coco Chanel may have once famously said ‘before you leave the house, look in the mirror and take one thing off’, some of the most prolific menswear designers are proving otherwise.

While Hollywood is first to champion the pioneering and fashion-forward females in their midsts (as they should be), let’s not forget that there are plenty of stylish males who would give these members of the celebrity style set a run for their money.
