Summer Style Glossary for Men

Ordinarily, any style that comes sans the fuss is the go-to choice of men. Crisp and classic silhouettes have been a no-brainer for men especially when it comes to styling looks for summer festivities. But with ever-increasing style stakes, it is important that you embrace a refreshing demeanour experimenting and playing with textures, fabrics and prints to march into the new season. Whether you’re a well-heeled gentleman or the self-crowned trendsetter, add a personal dimension to your suave no matter where you go this season. Take cues from runway-approved trends to polish your flamboyance for the summer season.

Textured Ornate

Incited by blending the rich treasure trove of Indian craftsmanship and modern tailoring, this season’s menswear will see silhouettes rendered in 3-dimensional embellishments and textures along with the classic pin tucking. Keep it tonal or accent your textures with a dash of bling for a majestic appeal this season.

Busy prints

Busy prints can easily spruce mundane silhouette with an added flair. This tricky trend though can only be aced with effortless suave. Strike the perfect balance between the pattern and colour palette. Opt for simple constructions to keep the print’s statement intact. Reserve kurtas and classic button downs styled in prints for daytime affairs for supreme impact.

Linen Luxe

Linen can certainly be deemed as summer couture. Courtesy- it’s versatility and comfort. From draperies to fineries a handwoven linen fabric can pull off both a classic essence as well as a trendy style. Think linen kurtas, bandi jackets,  bottoms and shirts to swing through the traditional gatherings with top-notch suave and comfort this summer.

Asymmetric Button Plackets

Regular button downs are passé. Button plackets constructed in overlap styles have made it into the modern-age cut. A contemporarily styled placket not only serves the purpose of fastening but also boosts the flavour with minimal efforts. The style is certainly timeless when it comes to flaunting, so look no further to don them for the upcoming seasons.

Cowl kurtas

Making ethnic staples suave, cowl kurtas are here to stay. Drapes instantly add a dose of drama looking polished at the same time. So while others stick to the basics, the only statement a svelte mister would need is an abundance of confidence to sweep off all the compliments.
