1/116Linemen? Not quite, yet the wide stature of the season’s most interesting suits could accommodate even the broadest shouldered gents.

9/116It was an eclectic mash-up of tropical florals, board shorts, and optic patterns on the runways this season. Just add surf, sun, and sand.

18/116Dudes are on the move, and taking their possessions—from towels to track shoes—with them in oversize backpacks, shoulder bags, and duffels.

27/116Buddy up to your tailor now. You’ll want to be in his good graces should you choose to cop the flood-length styles which emerged as one of Spring’s strongest silhouettes—statement socks optional, and strongly encouraged.

36/116Utilitarianism has rarely looked as grungily good as it did on this season’s olive-toned camo prints, whether patchworked (Valentino), abstracted (Bottega Veneta), or mashed up with filthy lucre (Givenchy).

44/116Lace emerged as a reigning motif of the Spring ’16 men’s shows; flash-forward a year later, and designers have forgone the froth in favor of tops that are even more straightforwardly transparent.

50/116Leopard print’s no longer just the stuff of the women’s collectsions. This season labels from Dolce & Gabbana to Alexander McQueen offered customers the chance to wild out in spotted trousers, blousy tops, and even a faux-fur jacket or two. Understated? Not exactly. Fun? You bet.

57/116A technical parka flowing in the runway breeze was an oft-spotted sight this season. Whether utterly practical, as at Prada, or a bit more fanciful, see Feng Chen Wang, the hiking essential is about to have its fashion world moment.

66/116A little BDSM never hurt anyone—well, on the runway, at least! Menswear designers tapped into sexual undertones, led by Raf Simons’s sexualized ode to the photographer provocateur Robert Mapplethorpe.

74/116These aren’t your standard fare pinstripes or Breton bars. Striped knits for Spring have taken on a super-sporty feel, in a variety of widths and decidedly vibrant colors.

83/116When embracing tonal dressing, yellow may not spring to mind as the first shade most guys are clamoring to try. But the certain foppish charm of a brilliant canary or a pale buttercup can’t be denied—and you’ll bring a smile to the face of every passerby.

92/116You know what they say, the higher the rise, the cooler the trouser—and thanks to the likes of Rick Owens, Dries Van Noten, and Sacai, waistbands are creeping into empire waist territory.

101/116If they’re good enough for Devo and the Beastie Boys, they’re good enough for you. Stumble through your morning routine with the ease of wear that jumpsuits offer: zip once and done.

110/116Gucci’s Alessandro Michele has led the charge in reviving bleach-spattered denims, but this is one deliciously haphazard trend you can expect to gain steam in the months to come.
