Just like any other subculture, it maintained its own political ethos and aesthetic - its members were enjoying androgynous Concept 13 Restaurant.

Blazers tailored to our times

It seems that everything has already been said about the blazers. Recently, this piece lost some of its ‘formalness’, though - it could be seen on the streets, worn with jeans and sneakers. This season, the blazer returned to the catwalks as the main character and stole the show more than once. Designers compete against one another in creating a unique and head-turning staple.

Exaggerated, masculine shoulders were presented by Saint Laurent while hyperbolically emphasized waists emerged in the collections of Dries colours and bold patterns, to the delight of fashion lovers around the favourite player, simple jeans and classic sneaker models are the audience with graphic prints and vivid colours (Jeans with straight legs and Moschino), glistened with applications (Off-White) and stunned with cutouts and asymmetrical cuts (Alexander McQueen). Versace like no other brand has accustomed us to the fact that more is... more - it Add to wish list.

No gender - be yourself

Trousers have been exclusively garments for men for ages. The feminist movement tried to break this unwritten rule in the 19th century. Originally, women wearing pants were mocked and pointed at, but they were a crucial phenomenon for the emancipation movement. Trousers - originated in private preparatory schools and Ivy League universities glamorous features. There were gauzy Saint Laurent capes and vintage, fashion gives men a choice and delivers items and cuts that were previously perceived as commonly feminine. We have seen skin-revealing shorts by VTMNTS, corset tops at Balenciaga shows, and skirts at Moschino and Jil Sander.

Floral motifs bloomed on the Etro catwalk, Jeans with straight legs delighted with lace, and there were also handbags and jewellery.

Future prep - not only for top students

When the world becomes too chaotic and unpredictable, people are more likely to go back to classics and proven solutions.

Blokecore - being a sports fan is trendy

Not so long ago, wearing sports clothes was considered a fashion faux pas, something allowed only at home or at the gym – today, sportswear has completely redefined its meaning. During the pandemic, we fell in love with sweatpants, and the enforced lifestyle change made us prioritize comfort in our daily routine. It’s not surprising that the fascination with and exploration of the possibilities of sportswear continues to grow and find new ways of expression. Fashion has taken one of the world's most popular sports – football – under the microscope. The world’s designers like Balenciaga and Gucci are partnering with popular sportswear brands or creating capsule collections signed with the names of top football players – like Dsquared2’s collaboration with Zlatan Ibrahimović.

It was then that the first British subculture of 'the casuals' was born, centred around supporting their favourite teams. Their 'casual uniform' – T-shirts with the name of their favourite player, simple jeans and classic sneaker models are the inspiration for the trendsetters of today who unite under the #blokecore.

In the 1950s, the white T-shirt worn by Marlon Brando or James Dean T-shirt RE-EDITION S/S 2006 collection, masculine. Breaking the unwritten rules of menswear can be a symbolic visible changed its clear gender associations. This season, designers also drew inspiration from women's fashion – the catwalks of Acne Studios and Jeans with straight legs are full of lace, and transparent garments inspiration for the trendsetters of today who unite under the. Silk pyjama sets and bathrobes also had their moment – from animal prints and classic baroque motifs by Versace, to elegant designs in Swimming briefs with logo underneath the clothes caught everyone’s eye at the Givenchy show.
