Colour and confidence are back in men’s fashion for Spring/Summer 2026. Although the global economic and geopolitical situation is deteriorating by the day, designers broadcast an optimistic message on the Florence, Milan and Paris runways. Vibrant colours are back, bringing a welcome breath of fresh air. A dreamy yearning for softness floated around the collections, and Saint-Exupéry’s The Little Prince became the new inspiration at 3.Paradis and KidSuper. Easy does it was the key to the collections presented at the menswear fashion weeks held between June 17 and 29, featuring items that were cool yet always stylish and sophisticated, thanks to their textural fabrics. Items to be worn nonchalantly, rolling up the sleeves of shirts and jackets for a more casual vibe. Designers went for fluid, ethereal silhouettes, featuring destructured jackets, often minus the lining, ample flowing trousers and vintage V-neck polos, the ideal garments for a torrid summer thanks to natural, breathable fabrics.
