Retro Modern Menswear

Luxe Looks for Guys that Mix Old Fabrics With New

— June 10, 2009 — Fashion
We all know that fashion moves in two directions, from the bottom up and top down. The men in these photos definitely make you look both ways. They mixed classic retro menswear looks with modern pieces to create perfectly put together outfits, pushing menswear in a whole new direction.

These photos were taken at the Worn Fashion Journal party, SOL(e)D, benefiting the AIDS Committee of Toronto.

Implications - While many businesses insist that generating a successful product relies solely on the cutting-edge qualities of a product, certain consumers are growing tired of the constant stream of new products. These customers are seeking products that combine a balance of new and old. Recent markets are always enticing but companies cannot assume that consumers immediately disregard traditionally favored items simply because new ones are introduced.
Trend Themes
1. Retro-modern Menswear - The combination of classic retro menswear with modern pieces creates a unique and exciting look that pushes menswear trends in a new direction.
2. Old Meets New - The trend of mixing old fabrics with new in fashion provides an opportunity for businesses to create unique products that cater to consumers seeking a balance between traditional elements and modern innovation.
3. Balancing Traditional and Modern - Consumers seeking a balance between traditional and modern elements in fashion provide opportunities for businesses to innovate and create new products that cater to this specific market segment.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion and Apparel Industry - Fashion companies can leverage the trend of retro-modern menswear to create unique products that cater to consumers looking for a balance between traditional and modern elements in their clothing.
2. Retail Industry - Retailers can create new product offerings that combine vintage and modern styles in fashion to meet the needs of consumers seeking a balance between old and new.
3. Marketing and Advertising Industry - Marketing and advertising agencies can help businesses in the fashion industry promote new product offerings that cater to the trend of retro-modern menswear and the market segment seeking a balance between traditional and modern elements in fashion.
