# Manly Skirt-Suit Lookbooks The Giuliano Fujiwara Fall/Winter 2012 Collection Has a Short Hemline By John Ibbitson | Published 2012-01-23 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giuliano-fujiwara-fall-winter-2012 References: [fuckingyoung.es](http://fuckingyoung.es/giuliano-fujiwara-fallwinter-2012/) & [giulianofujiwara](http://www.giulianofujiwara.com/) It seems like [skirts for men](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cut-off-brief-skirt) are appearing on almost every runway and in almost every lookbook for spring and fall 2012 this year, and the Giuliano Fujiwara Fall/Winter 2012 lookbook is no different. The label capitalizes on the trend, but makes it their own, by offering some wool, winterized versions of the garment. They even have one that has a coordinating pattern to one of their suits and that is pictured here draping over a pair of dress trousers. Mix in some bold pops of color, slouchy [tailored pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-fall-2026) and [stylish outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sujitha-shivajothi), and what you get is a youthful collection of both surprisingly masculine and sporty, casual, daytime suits. So if you're looking for the most masculine way to embrace the skirt trend for men this season, the new Giuliano Fujiwara Fall/Winter 2012 collection may offer the best way to make this happen. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 34% | 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) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Skirts for Men:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design and produce skirts specifically for men, providing a new fashion trend and style option. - **Youthful Collection:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a collection of youth-oriented fashion that combines masculine and sporty elements, targeting a niche market of young consumers. - **Winterized Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop winterized versions of traditionally summer-oriented garments, catering to customers who seek stylish options even in cold weather. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore unconventional designs and styles to meet the changing demands and preferences of fashion-conscious consumers. - **Apparel Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experiment with innovative materials and techniques to produce garments that challenge traditional gender norms and expand market offerings. - **Youth Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Tap into the growing trend of youth-oriented fashion by creating collections that cater to the unique style preferences of young consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Fall-Centric Dynamic Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5.md) - [Fall Technical Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atom-collection.md) - [Measured Winter Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-fw26.md) - [Timeless Sophisticated Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fallwinter-2025.md) - [Sophisticated Menswear Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-men.md) - [Seasonal Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/siegelman-stable-1.md) - [Workwear-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-springsummer-2024.md) - [Contemporary Fall-Centric Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/latimmier.md)
