Put a little gray in your day with the new Plasticine Dreams Become Killing Machines look book. This look book is filled with the [grayest styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir) for [Autumn/Winter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-fw26). I am suddenly dreading summer.

Who needs the beach and sun when you can look this good in felt? I love the idea of [felt menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/utility-felt-pac), even though I could probably live without a felted chest plate in my closet. For more felt fun from the Plasticine Dreams Become Killing Machines lookbook, which was shot by Matthew Miller, check out the gallery above.
