During a fashion show at Milan, the Italian luxury house premiered the offerings from its 2017 Fall/Winter collection. Modeled were a variety of different sweaters, with classic pullovers, button-ups and zippered pieces all in the mix. Perhaps most unique were the sweaters that featured ombre-style patterns, which blended different colors in a fluid fashion. In addition to the knitwear, the new Missoni collection featured flannel shirts, tailored suit jackets and pants, as well as wool coats of different lengths. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.7/10 - Popularity: 55% | Activity: 19% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Ombre Fashion:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry with more creative ways of blending colors in clothing designs using ombre patterns. - **Luxury Knitwear:** Opportunity to innovate new and unique designs for high-end knitwear products, using high-quality materials and attention to detail. - **Collaboration Culture:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry by exploring collaborative options with other brands to create unique and trendy fashion pieces. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Industry:** New creative ways of blending colors in clothing designs and attention to high-quality materials can revolutionize the fashion industry. - **Luxury Goods Industry:** The attention to detail, high-quality materials and unique styles can provide disruptive innovation opportunities for the luxury goods industry. - **Collaborative Industry:** Collaboration with other brands can grow into an entire industry of creating unique and innovative fashion pieces that blend styles and materials. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Comfortable Sophisticated Knit Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kerisma-knits.md) - [Elevated Seasonal Knitwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wool-knit.md) - [High-End Bohemian Knitwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alanui-2.md) - [Arty Knitwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arty-knitwear.md) - [Parisian Sophisticated Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nn07.md) - [Outdoor-Ready Luxurious Fashion Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-3.md) - [Understated Men's Knitwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herdsman-sweater-collection.md) - [Vibrant Winter-Ready Luxe Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-6.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md)
