Suited for Summer in Crisp Linen
'I always got inspired by those people who took pride in how they dress, how they look,' Brian Lehang, 36, said. He was talking specifically about the type of fashionable men known as dandies, and he certainly looked the part in his pale linen suit from the British brand Albert, chocolaty polo, striped scarf and woven hat. We were in Florence at the Pitti Uomo men's wear event in June, which he has been attending since 2016. There and elsewhere, dandies have seemingly been in short supply in recent years, he said. But 'for the Met Gala to use the theme dandy this year,' he added, 'it means this is not going anywhere.' A professional golf instructor who lives in Jordan, he said that the sport had furthered his passion for dressing smartly. 'If I go to work and I'm done, or it's my day off, I'll just make sure that I'm dressed up, look good, feel good and go about my day.' Tap to see more looks

Men's Wear That Melds Colors, Patterns and Proportions
Pitti Uomo, the twice-yearly men's wear event in Florence, Italy, is full of suits. But few at Pitti's latest installment in June contained as many multitudes as the suit Quentin Thrash was wearing on the sweltering Thursday we met, when local temperatures neared triple digits. Combining a double breasted jacket with flared pants, bright colors with dark shades and stripes with gingham, his suit looked both fresh and nostalgic. It was the type of ensemble that seemed as likely to have been bought off the rack as to have been assembled with items from a vintage store. Turns out, he had made the suit himself. Mr. Thrash, 36, designs a line of (mostly custom) clothes and accessories called Thrash Bespoke, and had come from Los Angeles to Pitti partly to promote it. 'L.A.'s a very casual place,' he said. 'People wear a lot of sweatpants and flip-flops and Crocs and things like that. And I like to set the bar high.' Mr. Thrash, who grew up in Georgia, said that as a designer, he leaned into mixing and matching patterns and colors. 'Just kind of doing unorthodox things in men's wear,' as he put it. 'If you look at my outfit, it's very traditional, it's very traditional tailoring,' he said. 'But the bell bottom, the flared pants,' he added, 'have a Western pocket on the back of them. It's like, there are a lot of details that I incorporate into my designs that you don't really see on a lot of custom suits.' Tap to see more looks

Setchu to guest at Fragranze trade fair and launch fragrance collection after Pitti Uomo
Following its guest appearance at Pitti Uomo menswear trade fair in January, Japanese brand Setchu is now also represented at the fragrance and beauty trade fair, Fragranze, organised by Pitti Immagine. Satoshi Kuwata's brand, the 2023 LVMH Prize winner, has its first own fragrance collection in tow, Pitti Immagine announced on Thursday. As a special guest, Kuwata will present five creations "in which East and West merge to evoke familiar scents and profound experiences". "I wanted to capture this intimate, deep scent that accompanies each of us in the ritual of body care, when there is time and no rush," said Kuwata. "Something moving and pure, fresh, crystalline, immaculate, reminiscent of childhood." To achieve this, he searched for the scents of Eastern and Western bathing rituals "to bring back these sensations associated with care and solicitude". The perfume creations were developed in collaboration with perfumer Julie Massé from fragrance specialist Mane and will be presented for the first time in September at Pitti Fragranze in Florence.

Fashion bros: Male celebrities flaunt their style at the latest menswear weeks
Hael Husaini is a regular at the international menswear shows, and with each appearance, he brings added prominence to Malaysia on the global fashion map. Photo: Dolce & Gabbana The menswear shows this time around may be less hyped, but they still drew male stars from around the world. Pitti Uomo in Florence kicked off last week, followed by Milan Fashion Week Men's over the weekend. Currently taking place is Paris, with shows running until June 29. While the buzz may not match the drama of the womenswear season, there is still plenty of style inspiration on offer – from the runway to the front row. Read more: Step up, guys! Let these stylish celebrities inspire your shoe game At Pitti Uomo, tailored classics were reimagined with youthful flair while Milan served up bold statements and directional streetwear. The energy across all the shows was more refined than frenzied, yet the looks worn by celebrities gave an impact. Malaysian artiste Hael Husaini was spotted attending several runway events. He brought a sense of boldness to the menswear circuit, opting for monochromatic tailoring and statement fabrics. His presence added regional star power to the global fashion stage, proving that style transcends borders. Thai rapper BamBam, plus South Korean celebrities like Kim Woo-bin and Jinyoung also drew eyes with their impeccable dressing. Brazilian actor Andre Lamoglia, along with British talents Harris Dickinson and Will Poulter, added to the celebrity presence, each bringing their own spin on contemporary style – from effortless suiting to playful, fashion-forward ensembles. Despite the growing prominence of male fashion, the menswear shows have been lagging behind their womenswear counterparts in terms of cultural buzz and mainstream visibility.

Several other brands also opted out of staging full-scale runway productions. Instead, a curated selection of guests were treated to more intimate presentations, showroom appointments or digital lookbooks. This signals a shift towards quieter, more considered ways of showing collections in an increasingly saturated calendar. The male celebrities that appeared at the fashion weeks, though, still managed to generate significant attention – proving that star power continues to be a driving force in keeping menswear in the spotlight.
