Top 10 Men’s Fashion Shows for Spring 2024

Neither the scorching heat, K-pop stars and their hordes of fans nor the heavy traffic could dampen the enthusiasm of the male audience for the spring 2024 collections shown in Milan and Paris. Shoppers and editors agree this is one of the strongest seasons in years, with key trends ranging from New Suits to more relaxed silhouettes, transparency to greater color pushes. But what, out of hundreds of shows, are the 10 best?

Here is a selection of WWD.

1. Loewe

There’s no denying it [Jonathan Andersons] The handsome young actor looks great in this elongated, raised waistline silhouette, reminiscent of The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupry and as extroverted as Cher in the 1970s, partly later in flared, flared trousers. WWD international editor Miles Socha on the best collections of the season.

2. LouisVuitton

Sunsets on the Seine are for sweethearts, but on Tuesday, the magic hour became the backdrop for the spectacular show that marked the start of Pharrell Williams’ era of Louis Vuitton. WWD Paris bureau chief Joelle Diderich

3. Prada

Miuccia Prada And Raf Simons delivered lots of fashion fireworks with their spring 2024 men’s show Prada, conceived as a freewheeling exploration of the t-shirts that some onlookers see through the curtains of slime that flank parts of the runway. WWD international editor Miles Socha

4. Dior

Kim Jones celebrates five years at Dior with pop-up presentations featuring models popping up from the venue floor, through the magic of trapdoors and hydraulic platforms. WWD Paris bureau chief Joelle Diderich

5. Fendi

There is a lot of talk, especially within the Italian fashion supply chain, about modern artisans and preserving their know-how.

Well, [Silvia] Venturini Fendis workers whether running on the runway or in the factory lab are some of the coolest. WWD Correspondent Milan Martino Carrera

6. Zegna

The colors are stunningly beautiful, from mint green and orange to flamingo pink, juxtaposed with earthy, hemp, gray and chestnut tones.

The collection is beautiful and par for the course [Alessandro] Sartori, thought out to the smallest detail. WWD Milan bureau chief, Luisa Zargani

7. Giorgio Armani

Global warming has made it a challenge to wear tailored custom clothing in the 95-degree heat, no matter how chic you want to look while attending the June issue of Milan Mens Fashion Weeks.

To the rescue come designers like Giorgio Armani, who found the lightest, breeziest fabrics that allowed him to continue to apply his signature brand of soft, unstructured tailoring. WWD international editor Miles Socha

8. Grace Wales Bonner

For spring, Wales Bonner hasn’t been left out, sporting drawing, sewing and artisanal handwork for this elegant coed collection stretched for live performance by musicians from Ethiopia, Kenya, the Republic of Niger and West Africa. WWD London bureau chief Samantha Conti

9. Rick Owens

She opened the show in her radical wide trousers with a very high and toned waist, giving off a shapeless legless look not seen since the heyday of modeling Nadja Auermann. Over it, Owens fashioned small tops of silk or leather that draped tightly over the shoulders and chest. WWD international editor Miles Socha

10. Prefer Male Boys

[Rei] Kawakubo gave his new title like a boy The Homme Plus Beyond Reality collection offers an explanation that to discover new worlds, we must go beyond reality.

She’s certainly opened up a whole new world of tailoring possibilities that are bolder than the salient shoulders and sheer fabrics explored by so many other designers this European season. WWD international editor Miles Socha
