The partnership between the retail titan and the Dior Creative Director has a history of dropping mind-blowing collections of elite menswear at shockingly affordable prices, and the collaboration's latest installment, a basics-heavy capsule of warm-weather staples, is more of the same.
Nothing ruins the magic of an intimate moment like unbuttoning your jeans for your partner as they kneel before you, only to reveal a random guy's brand name above your crotch. Your date is now eye-level with the words "Joe Boxer," and they're now wondering, "Why does Joe Boxer get to be grabbing his balls every day?" You've chosen to be branded above your crotch like you're a farm animal belonging to the various fruits of the loom.
Bad Bunny is headlining the Super Bowl Halftime Show on Sunday, and fans are eager to see how his outfit might play a role in the production. Since his 2016 debut, Bad Bunny has established himself as a fearless fashion icon, often talking about how central his style is to who he is in songs like "Yo Visto Así," where he sings, "I wear what I want, I won't change / If you don't like it, you don't have to look."
The streets of Paris were buzzing last week with anticipation as the city hosted the Men's Fall/Winter 2026/2027 Paris Fashion Week. From the stately avenues near the Palais Brongniart to the futuristic installations of Fondation Louis Vuitton, the French capital transformed into a stage for sartorial reinvention. Designers challenged conventional silhouettes, explored bold materials, and redefined what modern menswear could be. Observers left with a sense that the era of predictable tailoring has shifted toward experimentation-balancing structure, fluidity, and wearability.
In a captivating showcase at Paris Fashion Week, Dongjoon Lim unveiled the highly anticipated FW26 collection from POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF). Titled Drifter, this collection artfully encapsulates the essence of movement and transition, inviting us to explore the delicate balance between the past and the future. At its core, Drifter is a poignant reflection on the act of drifting, a condition in which old archives evolve, and the allure of new classics takes shape.
Continuing its journey of consistent, evolutionary development, the collection embodies Lardini's Code of Making: craftsmanship as a cultural value, an aesthetic stance, and a catalyst for innovation. The intersection of traditional tailoring and technological precision culminates in materials that convey meaning, while process quality emerges as the true luxury. The FW26/27 collection unfolds through four interwoven expressions: Contemporary Tailoring, Iconic Outerwear, Knitwear Layering, and Sophisticated Casual, creating a coherent yet understated aesthetic.
What exactly Giorgio Armani looks like without its eponymous founder at the helm has been the burning question in the fashion industry since the designer's death in September. In Milan on Monday afternoon, it got its answer as the designer's collaborator and right-hand man of four decades, Leo Dell'Orco, made his debut at the Italian fashion house where he will oversee menswear for the foreseeable future. It was the first Armani collection in which the late designer had no involvement.
Fashion is very good at announcing returns, and it is less interested in accounting for what happens in the time in between. Designers disappear, reappear and are soon asked to explain themselves, preferably in the language of growth. London-based designer Nicomede Talavera has done this twice already. His new collection under his eponymous label Nicomede, Sacred Journey, is somewhat of a third arrival, serving as a reminder that stepping away can sharpen a vision, not dilute it.
Timothee Chalamet was the final clue. As he arrived in good time on the Golden Globes red carpet, the star of Marty Supreme put pay to speculation as to whether the chromatic marketing of the film's ping pong balls would have him wearing orange. Instead, he wore a black T-shirt; vest, jacket and Timberland boots with silver buttons by Chrome Hearts, souped up with a five-figure Cartier necklace.
Instead of a bow tie, he opted for a long necktie with his Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello tuxedo. It's the wrong move, according to the aforementioned rules. When wearing a tux, you should wear a bow tie. That's been burned into the men's fashion guidebook not just because of tradition and propriety but because it really does complement the outfit more effectively.
Even if you consider yourself something of a tastemaker, you're looking at a nigh impossible task...without some help from your favorite trend-spotting, wardrobe advice-spewing, menswear-centric publication, that is. InsideHook is here to rescue your worldly image (and the holidays) with a comprehensive list of the best gifts for stylish men, running the gamut from twisty mushroom cardigans to the one rugged waxed jacket to rule them all.
Velvet Soliloquy is a playful yet intimate portrait of a man alone in a room that feels alive. The red velvet couch becomes his stage, confidant, and sparring partner, sometimes a throne, sometimes a barricade, sometimes a bed for his restlessness. Each frame captures a different facet of his character: a dandy in tailored suits balancing elegance with mischief; a dreamer lounging in casual knits; a flirt twisting humour into desire; a wanderer stripped back to vulnerability.
Mixed materials, unexpected shapes, and pairings of ideas that sound like they shouldn't work together and yet work very, very well are hallmarks of founder Diaki Suzuki's output. That's why the Japanese-born, New York-based designer has been tapped by companies ranging from Brooks Brothers and Allen Edmonds to Barbour and Uniqlo for countless collaborations over the years.
Each season (and each guy) has these pants. The heavy rotators, the first to rescue in a fire, the ones that always make it into the weekend duffel. In spring, mine is a pair of light-wash Dad jeans of medium value. In summer, linen fatigues.
"I'm not trying to sell," he says. "We have a conversation." This laid-back business model depends on a certain type of customer. "I had a hedge-fund guy the other day buy 243 pieces. It was crazy. But I told him, 'I won't sell you your business suits for appointments, because what your tailor makes is fantastic. You need power suits for business. My suits you wear on a weekend or after work, for relaxed dinners with clients. They're cool and casual.'"
This year is a breath of fresh air. Normally, the Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals are released on websites well in advance. I'm talking weeks. Last year, I remember seeing everyone's favorite Flint and Tinder waxed trucker on sale well before Black Friday. So much so that it makes the actual sale weekend fall a bit short. But not this year. All our favorite menswear brands saved the sales for post-Thanksgiving weekend. Some, believe it or not, only did Black Friday deals.
Canali 's Chalet capsule collection is essentially a dream wardrobe for the chalet-bound folk - the ones who prefer the slowness of the indoors over the adrenaline of the slopes. It evokes the intimacy of a mountain retreat, a space of conviviality where afternoons are filled with reading by the fire and evenings with wine in elegant glassware. Each piece is designed to envelop, conjuring a tactile luxury that feels as indulgent as it is stylish.
"I am a fashion photographer. I grew up on MTV and Fashion TV of the 80s and 90s - my passion for the fashion and music of those decades permeates every project I create. I am inspired by the charismatic energy of Iggy Pop, neon colours, the iconic style of David Bowie, and the dark electronic music of Depeche Mode. I specialise in photo and video production for the fashion industry, from editorials, lookbooks, and campaigns, to polaroid sessions for models, as well as videos for runway shows."
It's the coat most associated with a beloved children's character, so it makes sense that the duffel is a familiar sight in playgrounds across the country. But this year it is also once again quietly enjoying a moment on grown-ups. In the Christmas advert for Waitrose, comedian Joe Wilkinson wears a duffel coat while in the supermarket with Keira Knightley. Footballer Cole Palmer wore one in 2024's Burberry campaign, subtitled It's Always Burberry Weather.
If you're stumped on what to buy the man in your life, a contribution to his wardrobe will never go amiss. Stylish men will always appreciate pieces that compliment what they already have hanging, while those less sartorially minded will be thankful for some guidance. After all, every man needs clothes, and this is your opportunity to play dress up.
I have always worn my own label and never anything else. Strangely, I found I just didn't have a good jacket that felt up to the job. So, I was looking in my father's wardrobe, and I found an old Gianfranco Ferre jacket of his from the 1980s. It was in black cashmere with gold buttons. The proportions were all off on me because it was cut oversize
There's a certain kind of topper that makes you look like you've got your life together, even when you're sprinting to make your train. The Murchison Coat is that coat. Made in Italy with a tailored notch lapel and just enough structure to suggest you own more than one good bottle of red, it's the kind of outerwear that turns any cold morning into an opportunity to look composed, capable, andlet's be honestunreasonably good.
1 The sweater that becomes his uniform Seven colorways mean he can build an entire week around this pieceBritish tan for client dinners, deep navy for board meetings, and charcoal for date nights. Pure cashmere with jersey-knit construction creates that rare combination where luxury meets practicality. The mid-weight design threads October to March, making this the gift that earns compliments at holiday parties and still gets worn when taxes are due.
I was into American and French cinema, and American music and jazz since I was really young, he says. This led him to attend a high school that had an art program, where creativity led him to materialize his passion for the look of the stars of classic American films. In 2001, Yamamoto-san started Tailor Caid, and in February of 2002, the tailor shop opened its doors to immediate clients and acclaim.
Like clockwork, when winter weather comes around, we tell you to put on your Blundstones. When you get those blustery fall nor'easters, those Chicago winters, and any random day in the Pacific Northwest, we'll always tell you to turn to Blundstone. In fact, I really don't say that much about the Tasmanian boot company in our style guides because it's menswear knowledge 101. You have to live under a rock to not know about Blundstone.
