Men's XXL trousers: The ultimate pants trend of 2021 as worn by Richard Biedul

Spring has just arrived and we noted down the ultimate pants trend for the season.

From Armani to Dries Van Noten SS21 shows, it’s obvious that the men’s trousers silhouette has changed. The new tailoring proposes super wide trousers and XXL form.

The new, chic version of trousers offers more comfort and freedom and you can find them on tailoring, denim or even linen stories.

Checking out the Spring-Summer 2021 shows ( even the latest AW21-22 as well), you will see that the XXL pants trend came back to stay and Richard Biedul is definitely the ideal one to show you more.

Male model and influencer Richard Biedul is one of the most recognisable faces in men's fashion and one of our favourites here at REY Magazine. He has worn the trend a few seasons ago and he was from the very first celebrities to inspire us with his ‘XXL pants’ style.

Check some of his signature looks below to get inspired for your outfits.

Do it like Richard:

  • Pair your XXL pants with a classic blazer and a pair of moccasins.

  • Prefer to combine monochrome or more neutral colours for stronger outfits.

  • If you choose denim, tuck-in your T-shirt for more 70s inspired look.

Our Strange Obsession with Joe Exotic and how to get the TIGER KING Look (Copy)

If you haven’t seen Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem, and Madness, you definitely have to add it in your quarantine Netflix agenda; and believe me you will finish it by this weekend. ( 7 episodes documentary - limited series)

The true-crime docuseries plays a serious logic game with you as it unveils all the crazy adventures of Joe Exotic and his antagonists ( Including mysterious murders, drugs, illegal animal sales and more). Watching it you might have a small cultural shock (at the beggining at least) but while watching the episodes it becomes addictive and you finally become strangely obsessed with the characters and their personal style.

Our favourite style persona is definetely The Tiger King - Joe Exotic. Mr Joe delivers a very unique kitch style which becames ‘‘cult’’ and trendy in its own way.

Vogue’s editors note: ….Filled with animal prints (natch), sequins, and tie-dye, his look is cowboy drag filtered through a lens of bad taste and shrooms. The result is horrible, hypnotic, and shockingly on-trend!

Well, I have to warn you though… living our most difficult period at home and watching ‘Docuseries’ TIGER KING can be a dangerous combination… Don’t be surprised if we come out of this lockdown with mullets, DIY piercings, and home tattoos.

If you finally fall in love with his crazy and ‘in-style’ look check out your wardrobes and I am sure you will find some statement pieces to create your summer look.

Otherwise get inspired from our TIGER KING list below:

What to watch on Netflix if you are in self-quarantine

We all have to pass from this very difficult period in order to fight Corona virus. The world is fighting, Europe is fighting, Italy is fighting…. We ALL have to follow our goverment’s instructions and stay at home.

At this difficult time we need to follow the self-quarantine rules and stay calm. REY team will make sure that you ‘ll have enough interesting features to check during the week, and here’s our first Netflix list on WHAT TO WATCH these days:

ELITE

“Élite,” which returned for its third season, is set at Las Encinas, an exclusive private school with a killer uniform and, as we learn in the first episode, an actual killer. The victim is Marina (María Pedraza), a young redhead who’d always felt out of place among her moneyed and privileged friends. A series of police interviews with her classmates (and suspects) structures the series’ first season, slowly piecing together the events that led to Marina’s bloody murder by the school’s pool.

I AM JONAS

An understated French Drama about a Gay Man’s Troubled Life divided in different timelines. The story revolves around our aforementioned protagonist, Jonas. The first timeline sees him in school, struggling to fit in and isolated from the other students. When new kid Nathan arrives, he takes Jonas under his wing and on a whirlwind trip that changes his life forever. The second timeline takes place with Jonas as a troubled 33 year old, haunted by the ghosts of the past following a traumatic experience that’s shaken him to his foundations in the earlier timeline. The truth of this reveals itself in devastating fashion during the third act but up until that point, much of the film splits between these two timelines, harmoniously bouncing off and complementing one another as more character is revealed in a clever and natural way.

NEXT IN FASHION

Glossy, chirpy and colorful, Netflix’s “Next in Fashion” — debuted on Jan. 29 — is one of two new entrants to the televised fashion design competition arena this year. The 10-episode series, hosted by “Queer Eye’s” Tan France and presenter and designer Alexa Chung, also marks Netflix’s first venture into a category that for years has been dominated by “Project Runway.”

TOY BOY

Netflix’s latest Spanish-language sensation follows a stripper out for revenge against the extremely wealthy socialite that may’ve framed him. And while he’s out solving a mystery, his hunky pals get their groove back as a squad of moneymaking strippers. It’s very interesting to note that TOY BOY wasn’t so successful in Spain, even though it was No1 on Greek and Italian Netflix after its official release.

VAMPIRES

If Netflix’s “Dracula” miniseries gave you the taste for blood, get ready for a new French series that focuses on an entire family of “Vampires”. The streamer has quietly set the French coming-of-age drama for release on March 20th.

I AM NOT OK WITH THIS

Fans of Stranger Things will love this new Netflix series is from the same producers. Jonathan Entwistle and Christy Hall, who also produced The End of the F****** World, co-created the new show together.

Netflix says: “I Am Not Okay With This is an irreverent origin story that follows a teenage girl who’s navigating the trials and tribulations of high school, all while dealing with the complexities of her family, her budding sexuality, and mysterious superpowers just beginning to awaken deep within her.” The quirky series is actually based on the Charles Forsman graphic novel.

WE LOVE: Rirchard Biedul's looks at London Fashion Week.

If you were around London Fashion Week Men’s last weekend ,you probably came across the super stylish model and influencer.

Posing for street style photographers or catching up with his fashionistas friends and followers, mr Richard Biedul always brings out a unique energy and image that you can’t ignore. He has been one of our favourites from day one and he made it once again this season with his notable looks.

Well-respected within the industry, with designer collaborations and guest appearances on runways and fashion events, the IMG model loves and supports London’s men fashion week from the very beggining as he has been part of it all the previous seasons too.

Prada SS19: Are the super short shorts the next summer trend?

Watching Prada Men Spring Summer 2019 show we have noted a lot of looks that we dream about for ourselves.

We’re talking super short shorts, retro tone-on-tone belts, big puffy hats and a really nice set of bags… but what about those ‘super mini’ shorts?

Inspired by 70s and designed with patterns and colours from the 90s, the new trend proposal from Prada seems to be quite sexy and unusual at the the same time for the men’s world.

Muccia Prada used the words “more elegant” when describing how she wanted her men to look and she definitely achieved it.

I am already in love with those burgundy silky short shorts! What do you think about the new trend?


WE LOVE Foureira's new single «Tómame»

The queen of Eurovision 2018 is back and she is ready to set the dance floor on.. fuego once again!

After the huge ‘FUEGO’ hit and its European success , the hot Greek-Albanian singer has just realised her new single «Tómame» and we love every single beat of it!

International media note “Ordinarily Eleni is known for her traditional Greek pop anthems. However ‘Tomame’ or ‘Take Me’ in English, sees a continuation of what ‘Fuego’ started in transcending the international music scene”

Watch the HOT videoclip and enjoy the new single loud:

Setting temperatures soaring on the Athens metro, the video sees Eleni bring her sultry choreography to the Syntagma Station. The official music video has been produced by Alex P, Markus Videsäter & Didrick and directed by Yannis Dimolitsas. Big love to Markos Andriotis for the outstanding styling choices too!

Written by: Alex Papaconstantinou, Geraldo Sandell, Markus Videsäter & Eleni Foureira

Editor's Pick: Rankin x Sergei x Husky Loops - Tempo

Making a global splash in Hozier's music video for Take Me to Church, no one can forget how mesmerizing Sergei Polunin is in motion.

Lucky for us, the Ukrainian dancer has published a new video project earlier this summer and it has become one of our favourites here at REY.

Polunin linked up with photographer Rankin for a video. Shot for Hunger TV, the project takes the form of a music video. Polunin is captivating as he performs to Tempo by the alt-rock group Husky Loops.

One of the most inspirational video clips we've seen lately - Enjoy!!

5+1 menswear trends for Fall/Winter 2018-2019

From bucket hats to hiking boots, and from extra large shoulders to superlative layering, these are the Autumn Winter trends to know about.

Sportswear is well-anchored in this new fashion vocabulary, but this season it made way for a few fashion foibles and chic accents ( thank God, tailoring is coming back!).

LOGOMANIA

Street style is not as strong as last year but the 'logomania' trend is here again and this time is more bolder than ever.  After all the new and upcoming brands 'stealing' the top positions of the fashion industry last year, now the big Fashion Houses are assuming the style heritage that they rejected for so long. Go loud with all-over print, or go home.

WESTERN

A symbol of hopes and dreams, the wide plains of the American West are a seemingly inexhaustible source of inspiration for designers across the fashion capitals. From Raf Simons to Calvin Klein and Dries Van Noten the winter collections are proposing the style of the 'modern cowboy'. All you need is camel or earth colours, jeans, cowboy boots and your shearling jacket and you are ready!

XXL SHOULDERS

80s have been in our memories as the years with the most fashion statement looks. Extravaganza womenswear and more bold and androgynous menswear than ever. That was the decade when Mr Armani took over menswear and shoulders got wider... and wider. Today’s times recall a little of the same ambiant zeitgeist that pushed designers to create jackets and coats with shoulders that were ever wider.

"Fashion armour for an uncertain world."

EXTREME LAYERING

Demna Gvasalia did it again... Balenciaga and Vetements ''were doing the most!'' with superlative layering and really similar looks on the runway, supporting Demna's unique street style aesthetic. A kick in the teeth for global warming and tension around the world, or simple seasonal styling? You decide.

CLUB TROPICANA

From Prada’s archive flame print revival, to rebel skulls at SSS World Cop and Wales Bonner’s sensitive motifs, the print shirt will run and run through next winter. Refreshing and definitely something new for a winter season.

 MidNight GLAM

Sequins and metallic are back again but this season all the midnight glam becomes 'a man thing'!  Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, SSS World Cop and Balmain have already shown the way - you only have to find your favourite now...

We have to admit that this winter is full of new entries when it comes to trends. Some others that we love at REY and you will definitely see in our next editorial stories are the Fetishism of Moschino,  the new Tiger print addiction and the Space Fantasy  ( see Heron Preston or Undercover).

Richard Biedul x King & Tuckfield AW18 collaboration collection

King & Tuckfield is a new menswear contemporary brand, founded by Stacey Wood just 3 years ago. Its signature aesthetic fuses a distinctly British 1950’s feel, with sharp contemporary styling inspired by the colourful stories of Stacey's family history.

The design team is passionate  with quality and sustainable materials, and their inspiration comes from the British fashion heritage and culture.  They always love to mix everything that looks vintage with something that looks modern creating the new classic. 

Model, Art and Style director, Richard Biedul  joined that team to create his first 5 pieces-capsule collection and with these AW18 pieces makes his debut in the design world. 

The collection consists of pieces which everyone needs all the time and every piece seems to be ideal for your wardrobe. Richard mentioned "We've created almost an off-duty uniform… it is about comfort, it's about function and formality" 

And it's actually true. Everything can go from casual to formal depends on the way you style them on you. Modern, elegant pieces that will always be in fashion. 

During this collaboration Richard has discovered a new found love for quality denim and has merged this new passion on his designs too. Focusing also on 100% fine merino wool in a bold spectrum of Navy, Fiesta Red and Clover Green, the collection is inspired with vintage references and a 1950's notion. 

 . Richard Biedul x King & Tuckfield AW18 capsule collection translates back to the main SS19 collection which we had the opportunity to see during London Fashion Week and we have to admit that we fell in love with...

The AW18 collection is now available on kingandtuckfield.com

Gucci t-shirt

Tour merch is no longer that one-off T-shirt you bought in a love frenzy of the band directly post-gig. Nowadays it’s a fashion-focussed affair curated to fit into your personal style. Newly versed in irony, Gucci takes on the trend for SS18, typing out its brand name in exaggerated font on this cotton-jersey T-shirt and underscoring it with a selection of locations. It’s a Gucci gig, and you’re invited. Available on gucci.com

Kappa Kontroll jersey shorts

Talk about a throwback! Kappa Kontroll is back and in a big way. We have fashion’s love affair with the 1990s to thank for that. The revival has a few tweaks mind you.

242-3000831-BM501K3Y08_BLACK_ALT06.jpg

Givenchy classic shorts

Yes, there were a lot of short shorts on the SS18 catwalks, but if you’re sceptical about that translating to skimpy, fear not. As Givenchy - available on selfridges.com

Sandro Paris Denim Jacket

Denim jackets have pretty much made their way up through the ranks to achieve a 'basics' status that rivals the much-loved leather jacket. Sandro’s iteration leaves buttons in the past in favour of clean and sleek popper fastenings... and yes we go pink! Available on sandro-paris.com

je28ms18_715_002_1.jpg

JW Anderson Knot Tee

The knotted sleeve is a small design tweak but it’s come to symbolise the nonchalance and raw creativity of J.W. Anderson’s work. Not to mention those maritime references and they’re rife in this cotton-jersey T-shirt. Available on j-w-anderson.com

BLOOD BROTHER track pants

There’s one thing we can take solace in, and it’s the return of the tracksuit. Comfy enough to contain any wider woes, these sports-jersey BLOOD BROTHER track pants are designed with the classic drawstring waist and branded trims spanning the legs and they are our favourites. Available on selfridges.com

Gloverall - Worker Jacket - £275 - www.gloverall.com.jpg
