Men's fashion trends have evolved drastically over the past decade, as gender roles begin to shift and men become more comfortable with using fashion as a means of expression. Thus, the years 2011 and 2012 saw a lot more androgyny in menswear, with fashionistos reigning supreme; 2013, however, sees a space in fashion carved out for every type of man, from the geek to the jock.
Specifically for the jock, workout wear was a big focal point for men's fashion trends this year, with pieces like the super-heroic jogging sets creating a happy marriage between kitschy, couture and health-conscious. Pop culture-referencing apparel also made a transition from strictly goofy graphic tees to runway-worthy.
Most notably, menswear mimicked the DIY pattern seen in womenswear in 2013, encouraging more creativity with style-conscious fellas. This was seen in ideas like the origami bow tie.
