Key SS15 Menswear Trends: Darkest Blue!

Monday 6 April 2015

As mentioned in another menswear post last week, we're hoping to start a new series of posts on men's fashion and the upcoming trends for this season. We've already touched on Statement Stripes and the French Riviera trends, but today's outfit is all about the 'Darkest Blue'. 

Blue is flattering shade for most people, and Fat Face has recently introduced their very own darkest blue collection featuring shades of a distinctive indigo hue. Both Sam and I are massive fans of Tom Ford and I think his SS15 collection could even inspire Sam to try out double denim. Our favourite look was a layered denim shirt tucked into pair of indigo jeans worn with a navy jacket, creating a casual but dapper ensemble.. It's definitely something I can imagine my beau recreating!

Blue on blue was seen all over the SS15 menswear runways, Prada had some particularly nice indigo outerwear pieces on display (oh what we'd give for a trench), and although Paul Smith showcased a fair amount of head to toe blue outfits, we particularly liked the deep blues combined with pops of colour.

Above, Sam is styling the breton stripe crew neck jumper with the cove flat front shorts from Fat Face's new collection. I'd say Fat Face run slightly large, Sam would usually be a medium in jumpers but this is a size small and it fits him perfectly. It's a great quality jumper and is apparently 'made to be lived in'! We'll definitely be taking this on our UK adventures this Summer and these shorts will be coming to Glastonbury with us. Both pieces are extremely versatile, I always thought of Fat Face as being a slightly older brand but I've certainly been proved wrong, I know from now on we'll both be venturing into our local store more often.

Although it probably doesn't come across in these photos, Sam is ridiculously camera shy! I love taking photos of him (I never get bored of looking at that face) but he's not the most confident person in front of a camera, so I hope you like these menswear posts and perhaps with a little encouragement, we'll see more of him on here!

Are you interested in Men's fashion? Would you like to see more of our Rawr boys?

  3. I love the jumper. It's the type of jumper my brother would buy and tell me that I'm not allowed to wear it.

  13. So I kind of want that jumper, I love the neckline! Sam's doing a fab job in front of the camera, he's a natural! Fat Face has some fab things in there, especially in summer. They're my favourite place to look for swimsuits because they're not tummy control things or ridiculously padded! They come in really cool boho-esque prints too x

    Fab photos as well by the way!! Would never had said he was camera shy. In fact I had to scroll down after the first photo to check whether it was a press shot or not. SO THERE. xx
