Anime Villain Overcoats
Oversized, powerful, and sleek—these coats scream mystery and dominance. Saint Laurent, Dolce & Gabbana, and Ami Paris delivered floor-length, sharp-shouldered, anime-villain-inspired overcoats.
How to Pull It Off:
- Go Monochrome – All-black looks heighten the mystique.
- Layer with Tailoring – A sharp suit under a long overcoat adds instant luxury.
- Play with Fabrics – Wool, cashmere, and structured leather elevate the vibe.
The Statement Band:
Much like how a dramatic overcoat exudes power, the right wedding band can be a bold reflection of your personality. Some men opt for chunky, textured bands to make a strong statement—just like a towering coat does in fashion.
Classic Tailoring
Classic suits are making a strong comeback. After years of casual, oversized styles, designers are refocusing on sharp, well-fitted tailoring.
- Timeless Appeal – A well-made suit never goes out of style.
- Wearable for Any Occasion – Perfect for work, weddings, or formal events.
- Smart Investment – A quality suit lasts for years.
How to Wear It in 2023:
Pair a double-breasted blazer with jeans for a modern touch.
Stick to neutral colors like navy, charcoal, or beige.
Choose textured fabrics (tweed, herringbone) for added style.
The Deconstructed Suit
A fresh take on tailoring, the deconstructed suit is all about clean lines and simplicity. Designers like Kenzo and Louis Vuitton are stripping suits down to their basics.
- No Lapels or Minimal Details – Creates a sleek, modern look.
- Crisp, Clean Lines – No extra fabric or bulk.

How to Wear It:
Stick to monochrome colors like black or gray.
Pair with sleek sneakers or loafers for a contemporary feel.
Keep accessories simple—less is more.
The Rise of Skirts for Men
Skirts are no longer just for women. Designers like Martine Rose and Etro are making them a bold, stylish option for men.
- With an Oversized Blazer – Balances the proportions.
- Over Trousers or Shorts – A great way to ease into the trend.
- Stick to Dark Colors – Black or navy makes it look more refined.
How to Style It for Everyday Wear:
Start with a kilt-style skirt over pants.
Wear with chunky boots for a masculine edge.
Keep it simple on top to let the skirt stand out.
The Bomber Jacket 2.0
Bomber jackets are getting a makeover this season, with bigger fits, luxe fabrics, and bold details. Seen at Prada and Dolce & Gabbana, this upgrade makes the classic bomber more stylish than ever.
- Oversized Fits – Forget slim bombers; bigger is better.
- Premium Fabrics – Leather, shearling, and heavy-duty cotton.
- Exaggerated Sleeves – Adds volume and a bold statement.
How to Wear It:
Layer over a hoodie for a casual streetwear look.
Pair with tailored trousers for a stylish contrast.
Go all-black for a sleek, modern outfit.
Experimental Shapes
Menswear is getting playful and bold with oversized, sculptural pieces and exaggerated shapes. Designers like JW Anderson and Loewe are pushing the limits.
- Sculptural Coats – Big shoulders, exaggerated lapels.
- Cartoonish Proportions – Puffy, oversized jackets.
- Warped Tailoring – Boxy, asymmetrical suits.
How to Wear It Without Looking Over-the-Top:
Stick to neutral colors to balance the bold shapes.
Wear one statement piece at a time (like a dramatic coat).
Keep accessories and footwear simple.
The Future of Menswear is Fearless
AW23 is a season of bold choices. Whether it’s purple power suits, villainous coats, or dude skirts, the key is confidence.
Interestingly, the shift toward self-expression in menswear isn’t just about clothing—it’s also about accessories, including wedding bands
Whether you’re rocking grungecore layers, colossal collars, or even a wedding band as a single man, one thing is clear: fashion in 2023 is all about personal storytelling.
So, which trend (or wedding band) are you embracing this season?.
