Animal-inspired menswear give men fashion ferocity

Implications - It wasn’t common, until now, to see a pair of zebra sneakers or a leopard pullover designed for a man. However, animalistic clothing and accessories—always a hit with the ladies—are now making their way into the wardrobes of men everywhere. Allowing a man to show off his “wild side,” the emergence of animal-inspired fashions for men also shows how the fashion trends of men and women are constantly converging. While women can revel in men’s watches and boyfriend jeans, men can enjoy animal prints to their hearts’ content.
Trend Themes
1. Animal-inspired Fashion - The emergence of animal-inspired fashions for men shows how the fashion trends of men and women are constantly converging.
2. Printed Footwear - Bringing the animal print theme to men's fashion, these Vans x Supreme shoes are a must-have for those daring male fashionistos out there.
3. Mixed Prints and Patterns - The new Marc by Marc Jacobs 2012 Cruise Collection for men combines a plethora of prints and patterns in an unconventional way, making for a very interesting series of summer clothing.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - Incorporating bold animal prints and mixed prints and patterns into men's fashion can attract a wider range of customers looking for innovative designs and styles.
2. Footwear - Combining exotic prints and textures with classic shoe designs can create bold, eye-catching fashion statements in the men's footwear market.
3. Retail - Providing fresh and updated versions of products can satisfy customers and encourage customer loyalty, leading to increased sales and brand reputation.
