If you want tips on how to dress best in winter key pieces, we recommend you to look back to the 1930s onwards and see how men dressed back then.

Classic details are hotter than ever in men’s fashion. High-waisted, front folds and openings on the trousers, as well as double-breasted coats, are some of the classic details to keep an eye on.

The usual winter colour palette is slightly darker compare to Spring and Summer season. Earthy tones, like different shades of beige and brown.

The most deviations in comparison with previous seasons are that we now also see brighter shades during the winter season. This may be partly since the Italian style is very prominent in men’s fashion Winter 2020/2021.
