Paris Fashion Week Menswear SS2018 – RECAP

We’ve taken the Thalys back home again. Paris Fashion Week is a wrap. And what a week it was. A week filled with headlines and highlights. Ranging from genderbleding updates and power couple front row attendees (Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade) to the release of Drake’s new song ‘Signs’ during the Louis Vuitton Show. And from Dutch male model Sven de Vries making a name for himself (having walked 94 shows this season) to the absence of Givenchy and Saint Laurent. But of course we’re most concerned with the new collections and certain trends we can already look forward to for next year. From stacked up shoes and XL belts to eighties vibes, logomania and more. Let’s take a look at those, while we recap Paris Fashion Week Menswear SS2018.
