Irish designer Simone Rocha loves to add a touch of romantic darkness to everyday garments. Take the rugby shirt, which she transformed from a preppy staple of the male wardrobe into a frilly and androgynous piece as part of her autumn/winter 2025 collection, inspired by the children's fable The Tortoise and the Hare.
2. Louis Vuitton Men

Pharrell Williams , a long-time resident of Miami who moved to Paris after joining Louis Vuitton as men's creative director, was inspired by the Floridian city's beach vibes for the label's menswear pre-fall 2025 collection. Think nautical stripes, double-breasted jackets in navy blue, summer whites, and monogrammed jackets for a night out on the town.
3. Dolce & Gabbana

For its men's pre-fall 2025 collection, Dolce & Gabbana revisited one of its signature motifs: majolica. The curlicue patterns of the Italian ceramicware dating back to the Renaissance period adorn easy-to-wear pieces such as silk shirts, bomber jackets and even practical accessories such as beach bags.
