# Human Development-Themed Menswear DANSHAN Explores Social Patterns for the SS21 Season By Amy Duong | Published 2020-09-29 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/danshan References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2020/9/danshan-spring-summer-2021-lookbook) Fashion label DANSHAN introduces its latest collection of apparel designs for the Spring/Summer 2021 season. The brand explores the current social dynamics and patterns that exists in the intricate weaving of the world. It ultimately aims to promote human development through fashion in a subtle manner. It is designed with many layers that deliver textures as it folds and wrinkles intentionally. Additionally, there are also colorful stripes that are done with satin as the highlight. Some of the silhouettes that make up the seasonal collection include the collared tops, shorts, as well as pants that are [carefully tailored](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/graphpaper-ss26). The rest of the [capsule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atom-collection) includes impressive items such as [specialized blazers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apresse-2026) that feature long strings and button enclosed long coats. It is meant to draw the attention of men who feel oppressed by old fashion values and encourage positive identity and recognition.
