The secret to looking well put-together is often in the subtle fashion choices that you make. It’s more so now than ever, with “quiet luxury” being a huge trend.
The high-low method of dressing calls for matching of sophisticated designs with streetwear – and when done right, can create the illusion of demure refinement.
In pairing athleisure with chic pieces, the secret is in creating a balance.
Think versatility, not just in where your outfit can bring you but how comfortable it can be in different situations.
Free-spirited aesthetic
Zegna’s partnership with The Elder Statesman has resulted in a cool collection featuring psychedelic patterns. The vibrant colours offer a playful and whimsical vibe.

Stylish reboot
Boots are not just for blue-collar workmen anymore. Celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, Timberland has released a fashionable range of boots in brighter colours.
A different look
When thinking of Oakley, you will probably picture the usual eyewear worn by athletes. However, the brand does carry some pretty nifty designs too – like this Cognitive frame, inspired by professional video gamers.
Ring-ing in with style
There is nothing more “gangsta” than a signet ring – especially if it is in gold. Balenciaga’s latest is a hefty piece of jewellery that can really up your street cred.
Hat’s off to good taste
Bucket hats emerged as a fashion trend a couple of years ago, and they are still popular. If you are going to pull it off, choose one that isn’t too flashy. This Fendi cashmere design is luxurious, yet it looks modest in terms of colour.
Military appeal
Shearling jackets are this year’s big outerwear must-have. Saint Laurent has an aviator style design that suits the trend. The neutral colour is just perfect for men.

Colour yourself
If you want to add a little pop of colour into your look, how about a baby blue sling bag? Louis Vuitton’s design is without frills, making it easy for matching with different outfits.
Nothing to sniff at
A pleasant scent creates the overall impression of a sharp, put-together gent. MCM recently launched its first fragrance for men, which carries top notes of ginger and pink pepper, plus a heart of lavender and vetiver base.
