Men's fall fashion trends that were featured in several Fashion Week events all have the underlying theme of urban bohemia. These city-inspired collections featured by IceBerg, Alexis Mabille, Hermes and Y-3 were all listening to the motions of big cities and these cities have certainly inspired their designs. Infused with thick-knitted scarves, grays, neutrals and blues, they approach minimalism in a new way.
Simplicity is ordained by muted designs, yet these various collections target the city man who is not afraid of layering and becoming the extension of his urban surroundings.
