The second part of the best looks may include some styles that not everyone would like. This list includes some designers who have broken the rules of masculinity and found a flamboyant approach to their collection. While others introduce outfits that are unfamiliar to us.
Let's take a look...
Dolce & Gabbana
Even though I am really disappointed at the D&G runway, however, I found those three gorgeous styles. The suits are beautifully tailored in typical Italian fashion while changing it up with the lapels (notice how each lapel is different). The round waist coat on the far left gives the illusion of a wider chest which makes the person wearing it look more muscular. Even the choice of Polka here is toned down with the grey and black colour palette.
Gorgeous pop of colour! From the trousers, to leather jackets and even coats. Most of the designs are not really new, they are pretty simple. Other than the colours, the crop trousers look great with those sandals! Definitely a trend to look out for.
A not-so-risky collection yet it is very fashionable and can appeal to a large audience. We see monochrome checkered here again like with the Ami runway & 3.1 Phillip Lim. Stripes make their appearance as well. The collection is pretty rugged neat. It is masculine yet stylish.
Ok, so MAYBE Givenchy went a little bit over-the-top but this collection presents something new (or at least reinvented). I love the use of see through fabric with tank tops. That "paint splash" of flowers is an interesting variation than the usual floral pattern. It is a little too much though when worn all together like the outfit on the top far right. Of course, suit shorts make their appearance on the runway and this time with knee and thigh high boots. I definitely have my eye set on those.
Gucci
Gucci goes preppy with stripes, white, navy and red. The collection is so simple and beautiful. All trousers are ankle length. I like how the broad cross body bags add to the outfit and compliment it.
Issey Miyake
Now with Issey Miyake, we dive a little deep into the realm of creativity (or the actual see in some cases). Let's start with the beautiful scarf, short and bag match making, this is how matching items should be styled; with subtlety. Even with the deep sea creatures looks (the two on the bottom right), the entire outfit just melts together in harmony.
J.W. Anderson
I highly doubt many guys would be interested in going out looking like they were raped and tried to hide it. I find it interesting and really gets me to think of styling outfits as such. What I really liked were the shoes. Check out that beautiful knot!
From the wild west to modern day gentlemen, this collection covers a vast ground. The most striking element is using the long fringe scarves under outer layers.
This Kenzo collection is definitely not for the faint of heart or the fashionably safe crowd. The collection borrows trends off the women's runways and adapts it to men. I personally find the collection refreshing and breaks some boundaries. Favourite piece: the round handbags.
Completely not my style but for some reason I am absolutely in love with this collection! Maybe it's the use of gold with black, maybe it's the roman patterns or the comfy looking gladiator sandals. Even though I see Versace but I feel that this take is more masculine and versatile. Pairing any of these items with your wardrobe shouldn't be a problem.
Lanvin
Caution: skinny vampires on the loose at Lanvin. This collection is refreshingly -or maybe outdated- different than other collections as the "loose fit" trend disappears here. It's all about the slim fit and ain't nothing wrong with that!
The last and final part will be out soon but I really would like to know what you think of the collections featured here!
