Mens Trends 2013: Ferragamo, Explosive Color, Ultra Urban

Who says complementary colors are opposites? If you’re not afraid of bold color this summer – big blues and persimmon oranges – and want to do something new with your ties, take a tip from Ferragamo. Sheer is not only for the ladies any longer, guys. Why not let your tie peer out through the mist of superfine spun merino?

And you can see below that for FW13 Ferragamo continues the big color theme, albeit in more muted tones, with plenty of deep blues, forest greens, and rich reds. Sharp cut double lapels and buttery leather coats in oxblood are just the thing to keep the contemporary elegant man looking timeless when in a wintery spirit.

The Ferragamo FW13 runway gave us some ultra urban New York looks, some sleek, some top-heavy. Big, usually stand-up, collars made the appearance here, as they did with many of the houses for the FW13 collections. Designer Massimiliano Giornetti worked the brand’s trademark leather trim on cashmere and other woolen outerwear to nice effect, as you can see here.
