Tobe Report: How He Wears It | AW 2015-2016

TOBE REPORT

FALL | WINTER 2015

HOW HE WEARS IT

from the editor breaking away from the standard uniformity that we see in menswear, tobe has forecasted four engaging color stories for autumn | winter 2015-2016. structured silhouettes and nature-inspired, blue-hued prints compose the mystery trend. the dapper trend explores classic suiting and tailored layers in an array of earthtones. the final trends, mirage and virile, bring us back to brighter days and are highly influenced by the masculinity and high energy of the male consumer. the lighter colors in mirage are translated into dreamy floral and technologically inspired prints, while virile focuses more on bold colorblocking. this season’s trends allow for a lot of experimenting for the male consumer. autumn | winter 2015-2016 will bring groundbreaking changes to menswear, with trends that will easily translate from the runway, and trickle down to the retailers and male consumer.
