[A] With hybrid working—part of a working week in the office, part from home—now seen as a post-pandemic possible norm, Sam Kershaw, the buying director of menswear site Mr Porter, suggests there will be hybrid wardrobe to match. Particularly as many will remain working from
home in some capacity. Sweatpants and other relaxed items boomed during the height of the pandemic—with pyjamas even acceptable as a fashion item earlier this year. Kershaw says this taste of comfort, versus the formal stiffness of tailoring, is something that customers want to maintain—but they will combine it with pieces to smarten up their look.
[B] Other brands have noticed the demand for clothes that sit between these two aesthetics. Marks & Spencer has worked on smart casual suiting that combines soft shoulders on a blazer and trousers that are closer to sweatpants. Hugo Boss, meanwhile, has collaborated with Russell Athletic to produce suits in jersey fabric, some of which have shorts in place of trousers.
[C]" The consideration of how and where we wear our clothes is something that has been going on for some time and has shifted enormously," says Kershaw. Traditionally, men had an office wardrobe of suits, smart shirts... Now, men wear sports hoodies to lunch, wear sneakers to work and want to be able to go for a drink or dinner in a suit and T-shirt.
[D] After 18 months at home with a laptop for company—and only a semblance of presentability required for video calls—the conventions of office attire are being reassessed, particularly by men who often wore suits for work. Workers in the UK are thinking about something they haven’t for a while; what to wear.
[E] " There isn’t a sudden array of men dutifully donning a shirt and tie, aside from those professions that require it," he says. "Instead, men are wearing smartened up versions of the casual wear we’ve been wearing throughout lockdown with easy-wearing separates. " He describes the look as "that sweet spot between casual and formal".
[F] Kershaw does predict that men will eventually shop across different styles, and says tailoring and formal wear "has seen a recent pickup". But he says, as with many things, the pandemic was a catalyst in menswear—it sped up a casualization already in process. In 2019, market analysts Kantar reported that sales of suits were down 7% year-on-year and even investment banking was loosening up—Goldman Sachs announced a new "flexible dress code" with suits no longer mandatory.
[G] While Kershaw says he has noticed items ranging from longline shorts to statement watches become trends since curbs lifted on 19 July, he is most struck by a bigger change. "Ultimately the biggest ’ trend’ we are witnessing is the shift in our customer shopping habits to prioritise well-made things, with longevity and functionality top of mind," he says. Hybrid items that work for working from home, for an office meeting and weekend activities tick those boxes.
