The Biggest Men’s Fashion Trends For AW18

by Natalie W. Freelance Writer and Researcher

With summer slowly starting to fade away, when it comes to fashion there is only one thing on people’s minds - AW18 trends. Autumn will soon be here and if you want to know what styles and trends you should be keeping an eye out for this season, then here are some of the biggest men’s fashion trends that are set to dominate the AW18 trends.

The 90s Are Back

The 90s throwback trend has been back for a while and is steadily gaining momentum within fashion. This autumn, get ready to see a big influx of 90s fashion, especially in menswear. With shell suits, athleisure wear, chunky trainers and caps all having fashion revivals we’re sure to be seeing this trend for some time.

All About Checks

For years, check clothing has dipped in and out of fashion and has never really found its place within the fashion trends. However, this year that is all set to change as check is well and truly back. And, if you’re brave enough, the more clashing the better. An oversized check jacket will look great over the top of a plain or monochrome outfit. If you want to be on trend, but want to tone it down a bit, then you can’t go wrong with a checked shirt over the top of a plain t-shirt or tied around your waist with a pair of dark chinos.

Get Ready To Go Hiking

In the AW18 shows back in January, one trend which was set to have a huge future ahead was hiking-style fashion. From laced up walking boots to thick, chunky coats, get ready to see this trend taking over high streets near you over the next few months. If you want to invest in this trend, then a pair of good quality hiking boots is the best place to start. Not only will you be adding a key piece of the trend to your outfit, but when the cold wind and rain starts, your feet will be nice and dry.

A Big, Statement Coat

Following on from the hiking-style trend, there is nothing better style and warmth wise in the winter than a good quality, tailored coat. A good coat can take your outfit from casual to smart instantaneously and this year it is looking like there are going to be plenty of coat choices available. From oversized puffer jackets to unique hooded ponchos, there’s a coat style that will suit everyone. With different sizes, lengths, proportions and colours, you may even want to get a few different coat styles and mix and match these with the rest of your wardrobe. If you really want to stand out, then opt for bright colours or even a check pattern if you want to combine trends.
