WILD BERRIES
Mouth-watering fashions satiate your palette for color this fall. These tasty shades are the perfect fit for a man who is afraid of loud color. Deep saturated pigments of grape, plum raisin and cassis are anchored by chocolate, grey and black. Berry designs like plaid, paisleys and micro-prints can give a monochromatic outfit a touch of color and texture. From turtlenecks and cable v-neck sweaters, to refined plaid sport coats and pants, to neckwear and accessories, men are going wild for berries with these fresh picks for the fall season.
TOWN AND COUNTRY
The outdoors meets uptown with this new style. With plaid being the pattern of choice this season, buffalo and gingham have nowhere to hide. From the mountains to Main Street, chunky knits reinforce the outdoor theme while leather, suede and shearling provide new levels of refinement. Unexpected but undeniably chic, plaids are reworked into a wardrobe via neckwear, quilted outerwear, wovens and toggle coats. Corduroy, when matched with shawl collar sweaters, cardigans, oversized scarves and denim, complete the outdoorsman vibe.
CORPORATE LADDER
Serious times call for serious dressing. As more men try and climb the corporate ladder, dressing the part of an executive becomes vital. With the slimmer fit gaining universal acceptance, this contemporary silhouette is running the show. A new level of sophistication in the workplace is seen, as the onset of cardigans, vests, double-breasted suits, and trench coats is inevitable. Always polished, this look is taken up a notch with refined accessories like pocket squares, cap toes and wing-tip shoes, and tie and collar bars. Subtle plaids, tweeds and herringbone patterning, matched with subdued coloring is the new message.
