FW25 Menswear collections: ‘Denim on denim’ is the big trend

The European segment of the fw25 menswear runway season has concluded and as we digest the trends seen in Florence, Milan and Paris, it is already abundantly clear that denim will once again play a leading role in the menswear arena next fall. As predicted, the ‘skinny leg’ is far behind us now with jeans having straight, wide and baggy silhouettes. Dyes and washes were varied, ranging from indigo rinses to fades of black and grey.

Among the many looks, denim on denim styles were standouts. Jackets and tops with matching jeans or denim pants with updated details looked fresh. Here are ten of the best.
