The Best Trends of Men’s Fashion Week & How to Wear Them, Dries Van Noten FW 24 Brings the Runway to Reality

The creativity of the runway can often leave us with a sense of loss on how to translate forward shapes, colors and theming into our daily lives.

Breaking Down the Men’s Fall Winter 2024 Trends: It’s All About the Top Layer

The most definitive part of the Dries Van Noten Men’s show is the emphasis on clean, updated classic top layers and coats that set the tone for the entire outfit. We’re taking a deep dive into coat and top layer pieces that will define men’s fall winter 2024 trends.

Top Layer Trends at a Glance: Peacoats, across-buckle coats, mandarin collars, funnel necks, thin coats, evening suits with lean silhouettes, simplistic neutrals and non-distracting patterns.
We’re seeing these looks paired with shaggy scarves, leather accent pieces, denim accent pieces, jersey trousers and sleek cargo pants (a refreshingly streamlined take on more familiar 90’s chunky-pocket cargo pants).

The Menswear Fall 2020 Fashion shows have wound to a close! We’re here to illuminate the top trends spotted on the runway and how you can actually apply them to your wardrobe.

A Pop of Color

We’re seeing a lot of head-to-toe neutrals with an accentuated pop of color. Keep your outfit grounded with shades of tan, camel, eggshell or grey and complete the look with a piece or accessory of color. We love how minimalistic flesh tones neutralize hard-to-wear brights and other colors of risk, allowing for a new way to wear hues you otherwise wouldn’t consider!

All Buttoned Up

Outerwear acts as a centerpiece, buttoned all the way to the top in a sleek approach to layers!

Maxed Out Monochrome

This trend has been building for a while, but is now in full force with interesting shades of deep plum, lavender, tan, sage, and Air Force blue. We’re also seeing less-surprising but equally sharp renditions in all black.

Hints of Vintage

Nodding to fashion geniuses of the past, we’re seeing a ton of vintage inspiration on the runway.
Fur Accents: Fur trim reminiscent of early 1900s Russia is a cozy upgrade to men’s coats. We’re seeing fur on trenches, wrap jackets, leather jackets and denim!
Waist Tie Revival: Outerwear is on board with the waist tie! Whether robe-style or belted, it adds sharpness and proportion.
High Waisted Trousers: The high rise is back! What does that do for you? A higher waisted trouser creates the illusion of longer legs, while also ending at the smallest part of the waist, creating a “triangular effect” to the torso (think: Superman).

Leather on Leather!

We’re seeing leather in rich tans, browns and muted blacks. Rather than punk-rock vibes of the past, leather is styled to feel modern, minimalist and sleek. The runway formula is as follows: leather outerwear + leather bag + leather boot.

SHOP THE TRENDS:

Kross Trouser in Black
Eastpak Mini Bag
Army Blue Chore Coat
ALYX 9SM Leather Jacket
Men’s Turtleneck in Plum
Asos Boxy Puffer
Wool Cardigan in Steel
Greyson Paperbag Trouser
Stockholm Lavender Raincoat
Huxley Chelsea Boot
The Ojai Jacket
Leather Boulder Boot
