Before COVID-19 hits, we are always excited to see men's fashion trends at the catwalk. Things were different back then, many of these trends were designed for a time when people had social lives, dined out, and worked in offices that were not made in a Zoom call. 

Today, as the pandemic is still far from over, the reality is certainly not the same. However, in this article, we've compiled our own list of trends for men's fashion for what may probably be the most amazing summer of 2021.

Today, there is only one major trend, and that's casual. Most likely you are not required to wear business wear, and you won't be attending weddings. But if somehow you were invited to a socially-distanced observed gallery opening, anyone will not be bothered if you decide to go casual. Here are some of the men's clothing trends this summer of 2021: 

1. Tie-dye tees 

When COVID-19 hit, a lot of people were looking for new hope in their lives. This is the reason why tie-dye is becoming a positive trend. Its psychedelic patterns represent vitality and a brand new hope, which in turn, offers a feeling of healing that comforts consumers. 

In 2021's spring and summer, we will see the popularity of the boho technique tilt leaning to a softer colour palette, thenceforward, we'll be seeing plenty of hazy, blurred, ombre, and soft-focus effects. Aside from that, they will also use and combine watercolour, ombre, and digital effects to create an ethereal visual effect. Meanwhile, the washed-out look is produced through ombre pastels which increases vitality to be able to gravitate to a younger set of consumers.

You should definitely try this look if you've never tried it before because it's the perfect summer jeans this year. Its light colour is cool enough for the daytime, and they switch smoothly into the evening. 

3. Leisurewear or homewear category 

During the past few months when COVID-19 struck, one fashion category that has earned an extremely high spike is the leisurewear or homeware category. This is not a surprise knowing that WFH or Work From Home male models have pushed almost everyone around the world to toss their bottoms or down items of clothing away which required you to only show up for Zoom calls dressed decently the torso up, even if you can wearing your pyjamas or boxes only down under. 

There is no doubt that the word comfort has influenced us here. The word literally means baggy and loose trousers, large knits, free-flowing, light dresses, and cosy clothing options that are ideal to lounge around in. Since the demand for this category has been growing, designers and even huge retail brands like H&M, ASOS, and Zara have been stacking up these items to their digital shelves.

In the menswear fashion world, it's no surprise that cargo pants and army jackets are two amazing staples known for their durability, and for functional properties. Since it's already tested for time, numerous designers and high-fashion brands together are into army influences for the spring and summer of 2021 season. 

If you're into streetwear, you'll love the new and refreshing camouflage print taps on abstraction and digitalisation to come up with a more modern vibe. This year, even the simple patterns will be accentuated utilizing bright colour tones to appeal to a larger audience. 

The brand 81GB Community Clothing is utilizing humongous camouflage patterns which are intensified using attention-catcher tropical motifs as decorations to transform the style to a more chic and individualistic look. Other brands like Celine, Reese Cooper, and Etro, offer a new grip by changing the meaning of the old and standard camouflage, together with injecting refreshing patterns in bold colourways. 

The traditional khaki acts as the ideal base for many collections, considered as the main favourite among cargo pants, jackets, and army vests. 

5. Stylish and colourful collared shirts 

White jeans as your base mean you'll have the chance to go playful with shirt patterns as a contrast. This type of collar provides you with a little touch of style and increases the nighttime or daytime versatility. 

6. Stylish face masks 

There are plenty of face masks you can find almost anywhere! Of course, you can miss this out. Opt for anything fashionable, however, make sure it's not that too striking and detailed.
