Trend Alert Men: Handkerchief Embroideries

A Gentle Man.

Embroideries are beginning to infuse menswear. Simple linen or cotton styles in neutral palettes are showing amplifications of seemingly hand-made embroideries. Handkerchief-inspired motifs, Ukrainian embroideries, simple cross stitches and more are adorning those new menswear looks. The detail is subtle but adds a more feminine twist to the market, which seems appropriate regarding the understanding of a new male client now. For men, the simple and bucolic embellishment feels fresh and translates horticore and dutch boy aesthetics, which are being pushed from emerging designers to streetwear labels. With this new detail, collections can be introduced to a sense of homeliness and simpler looks can receive a touch of added value. Floral, fruit, fauna and vegetables can also appear as simple placed mini embroideries on t-shirts and shirts for commercial and lower price-point ranges.
