“I don’t like the ‘digital show’ solution,” said Domenico Dolce. “The fashion show cannot be substituted with something on a screen. You need the physical contact, the human connection. Because fashion begins with people.”
So that show actually happened and Dolce & Gabbana have presented their Spring Menswear Collection 2021 for Milan Fashion Week.
Strong DNA references in all the shades of blue and we love every piece of it:
Rick Owens unveiled his Spring/Summer 2021 “Phlegethon” collection during the Digital Paris Menswear Fashion Week. Starring Tyrone Dylan Susman.
After the Balenciaga fashion show, we noticed all the new masculine silhouettes that Demna Gvasalia proposes for fall-winter 2020-2021 :
Having in mind the heritage of the brand and the favourite color of Cristóbal Balenciaga, Demna unveiled strong black pieces along with the sporty effects, and new design proposals.

Versace showed its Fall/Winter 2020 collection during Milan Fashion Week.

Acne Studios unveiled its Fall 2020-21 collection at the last day of Paris Fashion Week.
The erotics of the exposed male chest are something to look at a bit closer this season. Well, at Ludovic de Saint Sernin, you can’t help it—the naked perfection of the youthful body, flashed with open shirt and gold medallion, is right at the center of attention with his brand. While the hench chest is nowhere to be seen on the runways, the comeback of a body type that hasn’t been seen since the ’70s (when all boys looked like this, not just Iggy and Bowie) is in full cry all at the 2020 men’s shows.

What Virgil Abloh decided to serve up were his thoughts on male dress codes..
. “Something you haven’t seen from me before: the suit,” he said. “But with menswear, it can be like an automated track, so there are different breakdowns as the show progresses.”
…and here it is: New Era for Louis Vuitton Men with the tailoring trend leading the runway:
Maison VALENTINO has unveiled its FALL WINTER 2020-21 collection during Paris Fashion Week Men’s.
“Men are changing much more quickly in the last two decades because of women. And because of how work has changed.” noted the creative director of the brand, Pierpaolo Piccioli.
Guys these days should have no hang-ups about wearing coats and jackets stamped with photo prints or embroideries of flowers, Piccioli believes. Luxury for men and women is being dissolved into a median category. Valentino boys have segued seamlessly into carrying small cross-body bags. Some might be utility pouches, but others are indistinguishable from the mini-bags on chains that have been gendered as female for generations.

Jonathan Anderson is adept at bringing almost-forgotten art to the ambience of his shows—both for his own label and at Loewe.
There were the long, narrow shifts in paisley print carried over from his women’s collections, pleated peplum tops over shorts, skinny knits, and hefty padded coats. With that sure hand he has for eye-catching Instagrammable branding, he accessorized with heavy gilt chains swathed as belts, blown up as shoe-jewelry, and minimized as sewn-on half-necklaces. The JW Anderson anchor-like logo that he invented as a 23-year-old was stenciled into a felted tote bag and worked into a patchwork sweater. vogue.com

2020 found us in London waiting for Men’s Fashion Week. This season was all about the new talents as many of the big names are not showing in the English fashion capital anymore. Our stylist & editor Martina Ghia was out and around and she has put down all you need about it.
Fall Winter 2020-21 seems to be a new era on men’s fashion with a lot of 90s elements, deconstructed denim and total denim looks, wide trousers, oversized coats and of course the new tailoring - a complete new generation on the classic tailoring, showing the elegance of the trend with a twist.
Below you’ll find the best of looks from some of our favourite shows:
Kim Jones has remade Dior Men from top to bottom in the 18 months since his debut—with a global team, with artist collaborations, and with a Saddle Bag for dudes, to say nothing of the pageantry he’s brought to the house’s pantsuits.
But the most Jonesian development of all is the synthesis of high and low, couture and street. So integral is this intermingling to his Dior Men project that Jones rejects distinctions between the categories as old-fashioned and out of touch. “Today, people buy what’s the best,” he said in a pre-show interview, the implication being that Dior Men is deserving of the superlative.

GCDS invites you to K-HAWAII…. in Milan!
K-Hawaii is GCDS’s modernized amalgamation of the word Kawaii (cute or adorable in Japanese) and Hawaii, one of the most beautiful places in the world, a tropical paradise rich with history. GCDS presents summertime seduction, where Kawaii is cute and at the same time sexy. This futuristic take on manga touches on the very concepts that formed the genre: a careful balance of suspense and humor, regulation versus fantasy, and idealized love featuring over-stylized and over-sexualized heroines.
Kawaii is represented by iconic pop symbols from The Care Bears to Hello Kitty, with vibrant colors and playful prints, all fused together by Anna Trevelyan’s styling.
Memories of Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin Inspire the Heady, Romantic Mix at Missoni SS20 show.
The menswear collection was fresh, candind and it served the new elegant style for the summer.

The colour pallete was mainly burgundy with cream and sand tones and…. the 50 shades of blue.
