It’s summer and that means we’re halfway through 2015. We’ve already gotten to enjoy this year’s winter and spring fashions. Now we’ve got summer to enjoy. There’s a lot to enjoy from this year. With New York Fashion week already over and festivals popping up all over, fashion is as fashion does.
Whether you decide to buy directly from a designer label or draw inspiration from these trends and purchase your clothing, there’s a lot of options when it comes to staying cool (and stylish) during the hottest months of the year from the retailer like Jos A Bank. What should you be keeping your eye out on this year? Let’s take a look.
Stripes
Yes, stripes are big in 2015. But it’s not just any stripe that’s striking out. Guys everywhere are expressing themselves with bold, colorful stripes. From windowpane plaid to wallpapering suits, stripes are making a bold impact in 2015, drawing the eye. Stripes have the capacity to be understated or big and bombastic so consider your current look and what you impression you want to make.
Skinny Is In
Skinny is in. At least when it comes to suits. Skinny or short suits were making waves at New York Fashion week. These suits are usually designed to be a few inches shorter in the sleeves and leg. Expect neutral colors and thin ties to seal the deal with skinny suits.
Denim
Denim is the workhorse of the fashion world. It’s reliable, easy to wear, and a sturdy stand-by in any guy’s wardrobe. Denim can often be overlooked. But not this year. Denim is making a huge statement this year. From shirts to jackets, denim’s expanding beyond the pants. Combine a dark denim jacket with a monochromatic striped shirt and you’re styling, brother.
Go Red or Go Home
Red’s also a big hit this year. Bold pops of red are making a huge impression. And it’s easy to understand why. Red makes a statement. We’re seeing red on shirts, jackets, pants, bags, and even three-piece suits. Red pairs well with a lot of different colors and styles, making it a versatile color for any situation.
Casual
Even casual styles are growing up. From sweaters to sweat pants, many designers are churning out high style versions of our comfortable classics. Slacks and a t-shirt are even going avant-garde, becoming a clothing item you can wear to the office and out on the town.
Flower Power
Floral patterns have been creeping upon us since this spring. And they’re really making waves with the fashion world. Floral prints and silk screening impart floral clothing with color and sensibility. Floral print isn’t just for chicks or for your Hawaiian print shirts anymore. From shirts to pants, floral works for many different situations and styles.
Polo
The polo shirt has been a stable of men’s wear for years. And no wonder. A polo shirt works in a variety of capacities from casual wear to slightly dressier affairs. They’ve been seen on sports courts and even as part of employee uniforms. Don’t discount the simple polo. They’re making a comeback. From multi-color polos to sharp designs, polo shirts are making a comeback. Well fitted polos paired with slim dress shorts and loafers can help create a unique look that’s perfect for summer.
Boat Shoes
Boat shoes are a great component to many outfits. And no wonder. They’re simple and yet have a strong potential to contribute towards a great semi-casual look. Boat shoes infuse wardrobes with a classic nautical look, which is perfect for summer.
Blue and Green
Red is making waves this year in the fashion scene. But blue and green are making a pretty big impact too. Bold colors have their place. Blue and green, however, help impart a simple atmosphere and work well with a variety of clothing pieces. It’s a masculine look with a soft edge that works well for any summer occasion. It’s definitely worth keeping your eye out on.
Fitted Short-Sleeved Shirts
These have been a popular item for many, many years. A short-sleeved shirt is usually seen on the backs of college students and those who wish they were still in college. But don’t layer it over a t-shirt this year. 2015 is the year for well-fitted short-sleeved t-shirts, the perfect thing to wear for a variety of occasions. Pair with jeans for a night out on the town. Wear it with shorts for a breezy summer kick. There are a lot of options when it comes to short-sleeved shirts, regardless of pattern or color scheme.
