FW2020-21: Best of London Fashion Week Men's
2020 found us in London waiting for Men’s Fashion Week. This season was all about the new talents as many of the big names are not showing in the English fashion capital anymore. Our stylist & editor Martina Ghia was out and around and she has put down all you need about it.
Fall Winter 2020-21 seems to be a new era on men’s fashion with a lot of 90s elements, deconstructed denim and total denim looks, wide trousers, oversized coats and of course the new tailoring - a complete new generation on the classic tailoring, showing the elegance of the trend with a twist.
Below you’ll find the best of looks from some of our favourite shows:

The 10 sexiest male models of the decade
2020 is coming very soon and we have to admit that the past decade was ‘huge’ in fashion. We have experienced many differences and we have met a lot of new promising models, designers and more.
Nevertheless we have put down a model list with some of the sexiest guys of the decade, both on the catwalks and in the headlines.
Jon Kortajarena
From Just Cavali, Valentino , Giorgio Armani , Chanel… to TOM FORD campaigns. The Spanish model is definetely one of our favourites. We also loved his cinema effort on one remarkable appearance in the hit film A Single Man by Tom Ford.
Pietro Boselli
A former math teacher and model, Pietro Boselli made to the fashion industry beacuse of… his hot instagram posts. His top performance on the social media platforms put him in campaigns for Armani and Moschino.
Francisco Lachowski
Francisco Lachowski made his first fashion steps in 2009 by winning a competition which enabled him to sign with Ford Model Management. After that Dior Homme, Gucci and Versace were only some of the big fashion brands he worked for on the runway and campaigns.
Jeremy Meeks
Delinquency, armed robberies and acts of violence punctuate the daily life of this young father. On June 18, 2014, the San Francisco police published the "mugshot" of Jeremy Meeks - the portrait made according to judicial standards - on social networks, which led to an unexpected media tidal wave. Still in prison, Jeremy Meeks signs a contract with the White Cross Management agency in Los Angeles and marches for the first time during the Philipp Plein fall-winter 2017-2018 show in New York.
Jarrod Scott
We first met him in the pages of Vogue Hommes back in the 2013. After that his campaign went very international we would say, as he has appeared in several campaigns and fashion shows over the years including Boss , Givenchy and Jean Paul Gaultier .
Alessio Pozzi
Italian God Alessio Pozzi has nominated twice, in 2015 and 2017, in the Model of the Year category of the Models.com ranking alongside Lucky Blue Smith , Cameron Dallas or Paul Hameline . That was enought to put him on the first row for campaigns and shows for Giorgio Armani , Moschino , Givenchy , Versace , Calvin Klein and more.
Cameron Dallas
With his Instagram inflated to 21.3 million fans, Cameron Dallas tops the most followed male models. After his debut in 2016 he has been the face of Calvin Klein for many campaigns and lately he has been in numerous editorials around the world.
Terence Telle
Terence has been in the industry since the 2012. We have seen him on the runway for many shows in Milan including ETRO, Armani and Versace, in Paris for Issey Miyake and more. Calvin Klein , H&M ,Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren are just a few of the brands that Terence starred in their campaigns. He currently lives and works in Paris and he participates at the french version of ‘Dancing with the stars’.
Clément Chabernaud
Our French model crush. Clément Chabernaud has done his big entry in the industry during 2015 after his cover on another one Vogue Hommes. Since then we have seen him on shows and campaigns - from Berluti to Dunhill and Isabel Marant.
Raf Miller
Fitness model Raf Miller uses Instagram as a playground to display his sculpted athletic body with intense sports routines. On the fashion side, it is at the Calvin Klein Spring / Summer 2016 show that the model walks his very first podium.
DIOR & The shell trend: Next year, it will still be on men's fashion list
the Dior homme pre-fall 2020 show, presented in Miami, was definetely one of our favourites.
Scene silhouettes infused with cool, thought in collaboration with Shawn Stussy, floral and tropical shirts and relaxed tailoring were some of the main characteristics of the ready to wear collection.
What about the accessories though?
We loved the berret hats but we also noticed the seashell jewelry trend which it seems to be even more bold from next season onwards.
Editor’s note:
For 2 years, shell jewelry has been on all fronts, inviting itself on necklaces, bracelets, earrings and even anklets, infusing a touch of cool to the silhouettes that adopt it.
MSGM FW19-20 Underwear Campaign
MSGM unveiled its new underwear and beachwear campaign. The design of the collection is based on the style code of the brand evoking the iconic elements of the MSGM’s DNA.

Exhibition: Versace’s South Beach Stories
Doug Ordway’s photos, from the 1993 South Beach Stories book, were protagonists of the Versace exhibition curated by Sasha Bikoff on the occasion of Art Basel Miami 2019.
Givenchy Pre-Fall 2020: The Lookbook Presentation
For the Givenchy Pre-Fall 2020 collection, Artistic Director Clare Waight Keller took cues from Antiquity and transposed them to modern wardrobes designed for movement.
As lensed by photographer Sam Rock, contrasts of air and sea in an urban waterfront evoke the ebb and flow of history, nodding to the timelessness of mythology and the universal need to reconnect with nature.
NatarGeorgiou Homme: The FW20 Collection
Maintaining their trademark; cutting edge handmade knit as the foundation of their designs, the designer duo takcs inspiration from the quote ‘sky is the limit’,
.The NatarGeorgiou Homme collection constitutes designs with fading colours and patchwork of different materials ; pleasing the eye with multi-layered metallic knits, soft silks tweeds and leather.
The aesthetics and the unique combination of fabrics and contrasting art and fashion , NatarGeorgiou represent garments that aim to impress and satisfy the modern man looking to stand out of the crowd with distinctive and inimitable designs.
Dior Men: The Pre Fall 2020 show
Kim Jones has remade Dior Men from top to bottom in the 18 months since his debut—with a global team, with artist collaborations, and with a Saddle Bag for dudes, to say nothing of the pageantry he’s brought to the house’s pantsuits.
But the most Jonesian development of all is the synthesis of high and low, couture and street. So integral is this intermingling to his Dior Men project that Jones rejects distinctions between the categories as old-fashioned and out of touch. “Today, people buy what’s the best,” he said in a pre-show interview, the implication being that Dior Men is deserving of the superlative.

Alyx brings back the sock boots
The sock boot came two years ago to break the shoe market numbers. With Balenciaga and then a lot more brands to follow, it was the ‘‘it’’ boot to have for more than 3 seasons.
This year ( and after 2 seasons break) Alyx, the high-end label best known for playing outside the menswear box, has just released its ultra-luxurious take on the style—and it was certainly worth the wait.
This designer sock sneaker features a dreamy palette of whites and greys, with a few contrasting pops of darker shades. The elongated knit upper wraps snuggly up the ankle, and the futuristic silhouette sits on top of one serious treaded sole.
It was sharp of Williams and Alyx to wait for sock sneaker madness to die down before unleashing these on the world and it seems to be the right move.
Shop the boots on Farfetch.
