Capsule with a Naval Influence By Amy Duong | Published 2018-04-11 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mr-p References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/mr-p-third-collection) & [mrporter](https://www.mrporter.com/) MR PORTER launched its third collection from its own label brand Mr P. with a dialed-in focus on delivering [spring essentials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robert-barakett-spring). The expansive collection is comprised of 32 pieces and takes on a strong [nautical theme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oak-bluffs). There are referencing details to iconic watermen including Jacques Cousteau, who was a French oceanographer, and John F Kennedy. MR PORTER's style director Olie Arnold, expresses that this collection is constructed from summer-friendly fabric materials to deliver maximized breathability -- this includes seersucker and toweling fabric. The entire collection takes on a relaxed approach, shown through its silhouettes and simplistic prints. Some notable pieces are the [seersucker blazer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beams-plus-2) and its matching shorts, knit crafted pique polo shirts, ribbed striped crewneck t-shirt, unlined navy blouson, a terracotta worker jacket and a cotton collar striped shirt. The seasonally appropriate pieces are available for purchase online at MR PORTER now. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 89% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Fashion for Men](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashionformen) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Nautical Fashion:** The nautical theme in menswear offers opportunities for designers to incorporate maritime-inspired details, fabrics, and silhouettes. - **Summer Essentials:** The focus on spring essentials in menswear presents opportunities for brands to create lightweight and breathable garments suitable for warmer weather. - **Relaxed Silhouettes:** The emphasis on relaxed and comfortable silhouettes in menswear allows for innovation in the design of casual and laid-back pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion and Apparel:** The nautical summer menswear collection from MR PORTER showcases the potential for new styles and trends in the fashion and apparel industry. - **E-commerce:** The availability of the MR PORTER collection for purchase online highlights the growing importance of e-commerce in the retail industry. - **Textile and Fabrics:** The use of summer-friendly fabric materials like seersucker and toweling fabric in the MR PORTER menswear collection opens up opportunities for innovation in the textile and fabrics industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [seasonal spring wardrobes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/british-watersports-collegiate-prep.md) - [Apparel Drop Additions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/percival-ss25-drop-2.md) - [Exclusive Joint Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-la.md) - [Palm Beach-Inspired Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mens-stuff.md) - [Summer-Ready Refined Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/noah-3.md) - [Eclectic Preppy Summer Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beams-plus-2.md) - [Men's Summer Swimwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vilebrequin-x-joel-mesler.md) - [Travel-Ready Summer Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangerine-palisade.md) - [Elevated Casual Spring Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robert-barakett-spring.md)
