At the menswear shows, the latest intel says that TikTok’s favorite 5-inch hemline trend is back. This summer, the only shorts you can wear are ones that cut inches far above your knees—at least according to our street style photographers, Phil Oh and Acielle Tanbetova.
Yes, it was a hot boy summer at men’s fashion week. Along with short-shorts, the list of essentials includes knit tanks to show off your arms, and multi-purpose bandanas, especially if you find yourself attending shows with an injured arm but still need to make a fashion statement.
Our street stylers also prove that sometimes the simplest of outfits are the best. If you don’t know what to wear, throw on a matching set with some running shoes like Cousin Greg, and when all else fails, a jersey from your favorite team is likely to do the trick. Don’t believe us? Then take a look at Jacob Elordi, Offset, Manu Rios, and more of this season’s best-dressed at the shows for some style inspiration.
Scroll through for the 10 biggest street style trends from the spring 2024 menswear seasons.
