As the leaves change color and the temperature drops, it's time to refresh your wardrobe – and fall 2025 fashion offers more than just warm jackets and knitwear. This season, sophisticated minimalism is combined with colorful playfulness, creating an unusually exciting contrast in men's fashion. In this style guide, we delve into fall's hottest trends, colors, materials and key pieces – with tips on how to style them smartly and sustainably.
Two directions dominate autumn 2025
Höstens herrmode rör sig tydligt i två motsatta – men harmoniska – riktningar:
On the one hand, we see a return of minimalist tailoring, where clean lines and high-quality materials are in focus. On the other hand, flowers maximalism with strong colors, retro vibes and daring accessories.
The tailored, stylish suit meets playful patterns, sporty silhouettes and accessories that stand out. Together, these two trends reflect a fashion climate where personality and balance are at the center.
Colors & patterns to keep an eye on
The color palette this fall is both earthy and bold. Forest green, plum purple and various chocolate tones dominate, while bright red and saffron provide energetic accents. The warm, rich hues are visible in everything from outerwear to details like scarves and gloves.
The pattern image is equally dynamic: the classic lumberjack check is making a comeback, as are animal patterns – think leopard and zebra – which give an edge to both shoes and accessories.
Key pieces & silhouettes for fall
This season's silhouettes are characterised by both volume and shape. The hourglass shape – previously mainly visible in women's fashion – is now finding its way into men's collections via tailoring with curved lines and defined waist.
Garments that stand out this fall include:
- The classic office suit in a new twist – tailored but with a relaxed attitude.
- Functional workwear – think fisherman jackets, cargo pants and robust fabrics.
- Retro-inspired sports set in shiny materials.
- Pencil skirts (!) which surprisingly feature in some men's collections.
Materials that are visible – and felt
Tweed, corduroy, flannel and faux fur are the fabric choices that define fall. Not only are they practical for cooler weather, they also add a tactile dimension to your style.
We also see a lot of material mixing: combinations of polished suiting wool with sporty synthetics, or structured garments in multiple layers – often in contrasting textures for maximum visual impact.
Design values & lifestyle: more sustainable than ever
In 2025, fashion is not just about appearance – but also about content. Sustainability permeates the trends: recycled materials, vintage finds and timeless investments that last over time are prioritized. Circular consumption and quality over quantity are the watchwords.
Meanwhile, the athleisure trend continues to influence fashion. High-top sports socks, sneakers with character, and combinations of casual and elegant are still hot.
Shoes & accessories that take up space
Accessories make the difference this season. Opt for:
- Animal patterned shoes and western boots.
- Loafers in unexpected colors.
- Sneakers with clear statement details.
- Oversized scarves, cowboy belts and noticeably large bags.
These accessories elevate even the simplest outfit and become a way to express style without changing your entire wardrobe.
Styling tips & how to build a smart fall wardrobe
Want to stay both trendy and functional? Focus on a few key pieces that can be layered together. A fitted coat, a plum knit sweater, and a pair of brown corduroy pants can be the foundation of your capsule wardrobe.
Build layers with different textures and dare to break out with color – for example, a bright red hat or a leopard-print belt.
Also think long-term: invest in quality garments that last over time, both in terms of style and durability.
