In this Men Apparel report we explore different approaches to design. There is a strong pull towards clothing with real authenticity, this is most apparent in the trend REALFEEL. Here clothing celebrates real function and the kind of nostalgia that connects to real experience and emotion. An alternative direction for menswear is ECONOME, which flows in a minimalist direction with clean finishes and clever construction – adding confidence and ease.

The London street scene brings out the best emerging trends. These original images show how women’s apparel is changing within each style category. In general there is an increase in proportion and volume, and this ‘taking up space’ reflects a growing confidence for womenswear. In styling there’s a contrast between delicate pieces that are sheer, second-skin or cutaway, with items which are oversized in more durable materials. Investment styles, such as coats or leather pieces come in safe, core colours but these are countered with bold-colour or bold-texture contrasts. This curated insight into trends is edited into a flow of looks, which is organised by style category.

CONCEPT Forecast SS 2024

A one-solution approach to solve the climate crisis is not an option, it’s clear we need multiple solutions to achieve any goals to cut carbon emissions. In the same way fashion uses a multi-formula approach to reduce its impact on global warming. The report reflects this movement towards sustainable goals by encouraging the use of resource-saving raw materials, ethical manufacturing, reusing existing product and materials and taking a slower, more considered approach to design. CONCEPTs for SS 24 outline the emerging cultural shifts, new events and designs shaping the future, and art that impacts the way we view the world.
