Menswear SS26: A Season of Reflection, Refinement, and Radical Shifts

“Menswear for Spring/Summer 2026 isn’t just about what we wear—it’s about how we choose to show up in a changing world. We’re entering a new era where intelligence, intention, and identity converge. Designers are no longer just making clothes; they’re building cultural blueprints. This is a call to arms for the modern man: embrace the nuance, demand the craftsmanship, and wear your values as visibly as your style. The future of menswear is not passive—it’s participatory.” — Joseph DeAcetis, Editor at StyleLujo.com & Professor of Menswear at FIT

Revolutionizing Fashion: Indian Brands Join Canopy to Safeguard Forests and Advance Circular Solutions

Sustainable fashion represents a powerful intersection of style and responsibility, yet its adoption faces hurdles as data reveals that eco-friendly apparel sales still lag behind fast fashion due to higher costs and limited consumer awareness. My perspective shifted during a memorable photoshoot featuring designs inspired by Canopy’s forest-friendly principles, where I was struck by the innovation and sophistication of garments crafted from recycled textiles and agricultural residues. These pieces not only matched high-fashion aesthetics but carried meaningful narratives of environmental stewardship, proving that sustainability and style can coexist. By choosing sustainable or locally-made goods, consumers can champion ethical production, reduce environmental impact, and invest in unique, high-quality items that support both communities and the planet.
