Comfortable shorts

Comfortable shorts

At this season's men's wear shows in Paris, most of the collections showed shorts in different cuts, materials and silhouettes, from the dressy, formal menswear shorts to the multi-pocketed, utilitarian cargo shorts, which made up half of the men's wear scene. The trend was evident at shows by Officine Generale, Dior, Dries Van Noten, Rick Owens and Wales Bonner. In general, the designers prefer loose Bermuda shorts to create a relaxed and laid-back atmosphere and look; Warm tonal and cool tonal match color, very accord with the relaxed feeling of summer. The prints also add a lot of fun to the shorts. They can be quirky or psychedelic or figurative or abstract, but they all convey the designer's sense of humor and optimism about the future.

Embrace the outdoor

One of the effects of the quarantine on men's wear is that fashion, as a utopian space in the real world, has been carrying people's yearning for the natural outdoors since last year. But it is worth mentioning that last year, because of the rise of home office, people pay more attention to the comfort of indoor wear, so hoodies, sweatshirts, T-shirts and other single products appear in large numbers in the spring and summer shows this year, on the yearning for outdoor more to stay in the presentation of sports style above. But judging by this season's men's wear shows in Paris, the outdoor has truly entered the city. During men's wear week this season, we saw a slew of functional jackets, including bomber jackets and safari jackets, that are perfect for transiting from outdoor activities to urban work life. Camp shirts seem to be an upgrade from last season's knitwear, and can be worn with sport coats or bomber jackets. Brands from Louis Vuitton to OAMC to GmbH have incorporated elements of outdoor design into classic menswear tailoring to convey the desire for the outdoors.

Elegant cutting

Fashion trends always come in cycles, and we were thrilled to see the 'Peacock Revolution' of the 1960s and the possibilities it brought to men's wear extended and magnified at this past spring/summer menswear show in Paris. After a few years of being street-driven, men's wear has returned to that proud pose; They are romantic and gender-defying, embracing a diverse aesthetic and offering a modern wardrobe that caters to the diverse needs of the new generation of men. Of course, men's classic tailoring is still dominant, but under the guidance of comfort first, gradually polished their own sharp edges and corners, so that loose tailoring for the elegant gentleman style to write a new annotation. Lemaire is the same as the light; Yohji Yamamoto, on the other hand, makes black, red and white a romantic language, and integrates brushwork and printing with freehand brushwork. It is elegant and poetic, but also has a dynamic punk gene. At Jil Sander, the designer duo of Luke and Lucie Meier take a look at the streets of New York in the 1990s, bringing eclecticism to classic menswear tailoring, with bright colours that also convey a lighthearted mood.Five trends, together show the 2022 spring and summer optimistic and individual men's style attitude. The 'proud' menswear attitude is back for more exciting moments. It's like going back to the original social role attributes of men's wear, unrestrained, trying to show yourself.
