“Trends for men have always been a tricky issue. You need to make a statement, and yet not overdo it. For the men who want to get started with this voguish experiment, this year is not a year to go too bold with colors, whereas shades of blue and black are set to rule”, informs Indian independent designer Vikrant Makkar, who caters to the taste of new age highly stylized men and women.
“Denims continue to rule 2014 and printed shirts and jackets will also be a hit. You can set your mood to make yourself look different from the crowd with slim, narrow trend with slush of colors,” says the designer who has showcased his designs at fashion shows like Wills India Fashion Week 2012, India Couture Week 2013 and many more.
Speaking from his experience, he explains, “For younger males, hip hop culture has highlighted many trends for men's fashion, while older males are now increasingly aware of tailoring, and making a garment fit right for their body shape, rather than going with the fashion trend.”
He continues, “An exclusive printed jacket with layering and a good amount of texturing on the fabric with fine yet visible detailing will look great. Printed jackets can be highlighted with Kalamkari work.
“The trend of printed jackets and slim pants is the future of fashion and the new age man can replace cargos with slimmer pants and include more linen jackets in his wardrobe. One can even pair up one’s jacket with slim fitting blue denims which are completely classic, timeless and are one of the most resourceful pieces one will ever own.
“It is easy to dress oneself with the slimmer cut ensuring sharper lines and a better shape. Indigo jeans works with almost any look one can think of and will never be out of fashion, so it's worth investing good money in self finished fabrics. Basic knitwear will be an essential component of one’s layering this season, and one can see these worn a lot”.
