What To Expect From The Musto Shirt Collection In The Coming Year

By Cornelia White


The fashion weeks falling during the last four months of each year give fashionistas an idea of what to expect from trends in the coming year. This makes New York Fashion Week one of the most important events for predicting what will fill the stores in the months to come. This year's spring and summer collections brought sleek silhouettes and graphic patterns to the fore, which are aspects that will be seen on the Musto shirt range of the moment.

Formal wear for men has received a dressing down through floral, checked and striped prints. They are not only finding themselves onto shirts, but blazers too. Jackets are primarily double breasted and worn with slim trousers. Shirts are tailored to bring an elegant touch to this casual aesthetic, with two toned shoes and contrasts adding a laid back look to the style.

Those who prefer to dress with more pizzazz will be free to add as much spice to their trousers as they wish. Catwalks were filled with wild trouser prints such as bright fruit patterns, feminine blooms, and Fifties plaid. When paired with monotone blazers and shirts, the look is completed through the addition of a bright colored belt or other functional accessories.

Minimalist dressers have been given plenty of room to be fashionable. Suits that use white on white to create interesting textural focus are trendy. The look is a play on texture, with every accessory taking on the same color in a different hue. Translucent, opaque, and satiny fabrics are worn together to add interest.

Trousers have been getting shorter and shorter since the beginning of the year and this coming season will continue the trend. The look is becoming ever more brave, with hems reaching just below the knee. Suit trousers can be worn mid-calf with suits, creating a clam-digger effect that is far more extreme than what was seen during the previous year. Whether they are wearing formal clothing or casual, hems can be rolled up high above ankle length.

Blocks of color are being seen on every style of shirt. They are introduced in the form of diagonal or horizontal lines or on collars. Classic patters such as checks are still in style, as are polka dots. All these prints can be worn on trainers, suit jackets and man bags.

Utility wear has been extended to include streetwear accessories. Man bags, head phones, and camera straps have been transformed from practical items to trendy accessories. This year, there is no utility item that can be carried without a thought towards how it looks with one's outfit. The fashion-obsessed will be replacing their consumer items with those that serve their look more effectively.

Bold color mixes create a strong aesthetic that begs to be noticed. Red and blue are the perfect pair, as are pink and grey. Indigo continues to be among the trendiest colors for the season, but camo prints have made a comeback, bringing neutral khakis and stones with them. As always, the Musto shirt line brings the trendiest styles to wardrobes.
