Cool Comfort

Menswear fashion in the Philippines is currently in style transition as it moves with the changing of the season. Rainy days have arrived in the tropical isle while designers unfold their latest pieces to update wardrobe staples.

Classic sweaters, hoodies, jackets and blazers are made new with refreshing silhouettes and details. Neoprene — the current haute fabric — is taking menswear to a whole new level of style in modern forms. The must-have staples that appear predominantly in swagger casual jackets and tees are braving the new season with style. Amazing variety of textures and practical layering come to play as fashion embraces the coming of the cold front.

Comfort dressing, in the months to come, is primarily essential. Thus, understated dapper-like appeal has given casual wear a noteworthy look of relaxed elegance.
