Key colour on the catwalk menswear trend for Fall/Winter 2015-16

Be inspired by a spectrum of must-have shades for Fall/Winter, as spotted on the runways of London, Milan and Paris. The F/W 2015-16 menswear shows saw men's fashion updated with a range of directional colours, inspiring the Trendstop colour analysts with exciting looks fresh off the front row. The Fall/Winter 2015 catwalks revealed a fusion of classic tones, as colours are bleached out for a softer look. These shades will influence fast fashion markets going into F/W 2015-16, as well as the mainstream fashion markets for F/W16-17 a year later. This week, FashionUnited readers can discover Raspberry Oxblood, an essential new Fashion Colour for the menswear wardrobe.

Raspberry Oxblood

Oxblood takes on a pinkish cast, lending a new softness to the fashion staple shade. As men become braver with colour, aspects from the more diverse womenswear wardrobe can be introduced: Raspberry Oxblood shows how this can be done in a masculine and commercial way. Casualwear expresses a rich appeal across tactile woollens and sportive jersey, as well as leather jackets and footwear. 

A key shade on the Milan catwalks, Raspberry Oxblood lends a contemporary sophistication to formal menswear. Winter tailoring looks new with black contrast detailing, as luxe joggers combine fluid satin fabrics with voluminous shapes for a refined statement. Silver hardware embellishment adds an edge to smart loafer shoes.
