# Opulent Menswear Couture THe HERO Magazine Dior Preview Glimpses the 2013 Spring/Summer Line By Trenton Millar | Published 2012-10-24 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hero-magazine-dior-preview References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2012/10/hero-dior-homme-2013-spring-summer-editorial-preview) & [hero-zine](http://www.hero-zine.com/buy-hero) The weather has barely started to get cold, but we are already getting to see what we will be wearing next spring and summer through the HERO Magazine Dior Preview. Designer Kris Van Assche takes the lead designing the Dior 2013 Spring/Summer collection. He makes use of double-breasted blazers, naval stripes and plenty of navy blue and indigo hues. The preview itself is called 'Volatile Opulence.' The luxuriously decorated room, complete with a real life tiger, lives up to that title. The preview appears alongside an interview with Roberto Cavalli and Christian Louboutin. This issue of HERO Magazine, like those before it, is a must have for fashion-forward men who are looking to not see what is now, but what is next. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 73% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Opulent Menswear:** The trend towards opulent menswear highlights a potential innovation opportunity for designers to experiment with decadent materials and textures. - **Nautical Influences:** The trend towards nautical influences in menswear presents an opportunity for designers to create new, innovative designs that push the boundaries of traditional naval-inspired fashion. - **Double-breasted Blazers:** The trend towards double-breasted blazers in menswear creates an opportunity for designers to personalize and modernize this classic silhouette. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Luxury Fashion:** The luxury fashion industry can capitalize on the opulent menswear trend by creating unique and daring pieces that cater to high-end clientele. - **Men's Clothing:** The men's clothing industry can experiment with nautical influences and double-breasted blazers to present fresh takes on classic looks while satisfying modern fashion tastes. - **Magazine Publishing:** The magazine publishing industry can benefit from catering to the fashion-forward male demographic that craves up-to-date and exclusive content on emerging trends and styles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sophisticated Menswear Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-men.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Colorful Zodiac Motif Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-x-kaws.md) - [Beach-Inspired Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-kind-of-guise-3.md) - [Evolutionary Menswear Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ss-daley-1.md) - [Stylish City-Inspired Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diors-2024-collection.md) - [Artful Luxe Fashion Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/otani.md) - [Archetypal Fashion Debuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-famiglia-collection.md) - [Exclusive Luxe Technical Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-and-stone-island.md)
