Explore the new color codes of the season in patchwork or monochrome.
June’s intermittent showers can only mean that high summer has passed; still, it’s the season of scheduling well-deserved breathers between a packed year. As you work your weekend getaways around the weather, consider the building blocks of this season’s uniform: patched-up rustic monotones, with tactile textures to boot.
Patchwork has established itself as a mainstay trend between global street style and the runways through the recent slew of men’s shows, from Yohji Yamato’s scrap fabric-layered suits last season to Marine Serre’s multi-print polos shown last year. Consider, too, an offshoot of the style, in color-blocked checkers (Viña Romero does it in earthy hues, while Pharrell Williams continues to riff on the Damier print for in every which way).
If you plan on staying in the office this month, trust an unlikely pairing to take you from desk to deck. You could style your go-to monochromes—grays match the mood cast by the skies—with a pair of loafers, or you could opt for a more easygoing staple in the same vein; heavy-duty outdoor sandals make an easy transition look pre-vacay.
