Design forecast Men/Youth apparel - Spring/Summer 2026 (Trendzoom)

Published
June 16, 2025

Menswear styles take up space in exciting new proportions that bring a sense of confidence to the summer 2026 season. This easy volume is sometimes balanced with crop lengths, giving silhouettes a boxy appearance. Details and fastenings are used to control excess volume or to provide adaptive styling.
Men’s apparel is casualised in subtle ways with workwear detailing creeping into formal styles, and softer fabrics used to take the edge off hard lines. New designs introduce exciting developments in the menswear sector for spring/summer 2026.

CASUALWEAR - MEN/youth
easy adaptable layers including denim and workwear

SMART - MEN/youth
structured jackets, smart shirts, shorts and tailored trousers

JERSEY - MEN/youth
casual urban tops and bottoms in jersey and knit materials

OUTERWEAR - MEN/youth
casual jackets, coats, technical styles and outerwear layers
