Style director Kim Jones stated that the inspiration for the clothing came from a road trip from New Orleans to Las Vegas. The clothing draws heavily from a classic American culture that speaks to a "do-what-you-want attitude." From bandanas peaking through the tops of collared shirts to [classic letterman jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mens-stuff), this line has a much more relaxed feel than previous ones. Culture-inspired menswear goes along with the already evident trend of classic American influenced hipster styles and James Dean hairdos. Kim Jones should be congratulated for her ability to bring together a line that transcends the runway with pieces that any man can wear on the streets. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Culture-inspired Menswear:** The trend of culture-inspired menswear offers opportunities for brands to incorporate elements from different cultures into their clothing, providing unique and diverse options for fashion-forward men. - **Relaxed and Casual Clothing:** The trend of relaxed and casual clothing presents opportunities for brands to cater to the growing demand for comfortable and laid-back fashion choices, reflecting the changing preferences of consumers. - **Influence of Classic American Culture:** The influence of classic American culture in fashion opens up opportunities for brands to tap into nostalgic themes and create designs that evoke a sense of timeless appeal and Americana style. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Retail:** The fashion retail industry can capitalize on the trends of culture-inspired menswear and relaxed clothing by offering a wide range of options for consumers seeking unique, casual and culturally influenced fashion choices. - **Streetwear Brands:** Streetwear brands can leverage the trends of culture-inspired menswear and the influence of classic American culture to create collections that appeal to young urban consumers seeking stylish, yet accessible clothing with a nostalgic twist. - **Fashion Design:** The fashion design industry has the opportunity to embrace the trend of culture-inspired menswear and the influence of classic American culture to create innovative designs that bridge the gap between high fashion and everyday wear. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cowboy-Inspired Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-fw-2024.md) - [Luxe Tailored Fall Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-fall-2026.md) - [Intimate Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-springsummer-2026.md) - [Celebrity-Backed Luxury Menswear Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-menswear-campaign.md) - [Luggage-Honoring Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-flight-mode-collection.md) - [On-the-Road Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-prefall-2023.md) - [Luxury Menswear Apparel Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuittons-soho-popup.md) - [Dandyism-Inspired Men's Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lv-buttersoft-sneaker.md) - [Alpine Luxury Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2026-mens-ski-collection.md)
