Fall-Winter 2015 Menswear Fashion Trends–Setting the trends for the season, designers unveiled their fall-winter 2015 menswear collections during Milan Fashion Week, New York Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week and London Collections: Men. A common thread among the collections was a desire to make wearable, accessible everyday clothing, whether it was formal or casual. Placing the importance on textiles, many of the season’s trends were dictated by fabric choices. From shearling to corduroy, designers revisited classic staples with a modern flair. Other trends to emerge included patchwork, androgyny, a gothic approach to formalwear and the use of animal prints.
