Italians do it better. This seems to be the theme coming out of Milan fashion week where the Italians have taken the bull by the horns and produced some of the best menswear we’ve seen from them in a long time. You may as well go down in style!
Here are TheChicGeek’s trend highlights:
Pink/Green Scene
Think avocado and prawn cocktail sauce.

Fresh 70s
The seventies got a refresh and contemporary update. Chevrons were the order of the day.

Towelling Coat
Knowing Fendi this is probably made from kittens. Get the robe out of the spa and take it to the street.
Both Fendi
Bleach
More bleach. It's one way of cleaning your clothes. (See how London did it - here)
From Left - Gucci, Dsquared2, MSGM, Bally
Scout
The most stylish men are always prepared. Now get over prepared!
From Left - Moncler Gamme Bleu, Ferragamo, Prada, Ferragamo
New Evening
Nobody dresses up anymore, said no one, ever. It's time to get imaginative and experiment with new shapes including ruffles and tails.
From Left - Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci
Jazz Age
Jazz, great! From literal at Dolce to art-deco Marcel waves at Fendi. I thought I'd throw a painting from the era by British artist Duncan Grant for additional inspiration.

Logoed belts
Rediscover your waist. Suck it in and stick a letter on it.

Brand #me
Nobody does narcissism like the Italians!
