Paris Fashion Week Trends: The Ermenegildo Zegna Perspective

PFW in text

Elevate your wardrobe with bold silhouettes and patterns this season. Once considered the back burner of the fashion world, menswear shows have dominated the industry’s consciousness. Ever so daring in its visual construction, menswear has become more experimental than ever. Whether you prefer structural outerwear, striking tailoring on suits, or noteworthy colours, these are the different pieces you can add to your wardrobe.

Oversized silhouettes make for dimensional aesthetics. Billowy trench coats and jumbo puffer coats can be seen on all the runways. They are often designed with airy drop shoulder sleeves and protruding lapels that add abstract structures to these traditional items. They even come in every hue and pattern to suit every mood whether it be Houndstooth or neon pink and are often finished with a belted waist. This long Ermenegildo Zegna puffer coat is exemplary of this aesthetic with its airy trapeze shape and its quilted construction.

Suits with contemporary tailoring lend a prominent look. Leave fitted silhouettes behind with boxy blazers and drop crotch pant combinations. Double-breasted jackets feature striking shoulders and elongated sleeves, while peak lapels were favoured over the conventional notch lapel. This woven Zegna suit is shown with a relaxed single-breasted design and tapered pants that resemble joggers. Merging contemporary abundance with refinement is key to this trend.

Tonal ensembles never got out of style. Head to toe single hues can be seen on matching suits and athleisure essentials everywhere. Allover black is versatile in its minimalist and subdued finish, while conspicuous colour suits are ideal statement pieces. For instance, this cinched front suit comes in merlot and turquoise to garner compelling visuals. Modern and eye-catching, these menswear trends were made for refined and urbane style.
