"But what should those garms be? Colorful or neutral? Baggy or slimline? Patterned or not? Designers' usual penchant for earthy tones (sand, olive, terracotta - you get the gist) were nowhere to be seen last June, as 2026 marks menswear's move into bold colors. Not only did the catwalk's have retina-burning oranges, turquoise, and pinks on display, but they were styled with other equally bright shades."
"Versace was the biggest culprit, leaning into an eighties vibe by pairing complimentary colours of that vintage patina with each other: canary yellow with royal blue, or tomato red with jade green. Jil Sander had a slightly more subdued take, layering different shades of blue with one another, while Alessandro Michele's Valentino collection felt like a middle ground between the two, as salmon pink trousers were styled with a faded baby blue shirt."
"While this print is a staple within many men's wardrobes, this year, you should be wearing it differently. Amiri layered an Argyle cardigan over a knitted tank, Acne styled a white check shirt with shorts made of the same material, while Auralee opted for a chore jacket and trouser combination. When it came to checks this season, we were seeing double."
Spring/Summer 2026 menswear shifts from earthy neutrals to bold, saturated color blocking featuring oranges, turquoises, pinks, and complementary pairings. Designers paired contrasting hues—canary yellow with royal blue, tomato red with jade green—while others layered varying shades of blue or combined pastel and faded tones. Checks appear as coordinated two-piece looks, including Argyle cardigans over tanks, matching check shirts with shorts, and chore jacket-and-trouser sets. Pyjama suits migrated to daytime dressing with undone shirts, tucked panels, and clashing prints such as paisley dressing gowns against subdued navy pieces. Overall silhouettes vary from layered pieces to relaxed, sleepwear-inspired tailoring.
