Renowned for his use of digitally enhanced prints and original fabrics, he seems tailor made for the print and pattern trends that are currently dominating menswear. Just another example of a high fashion designer being ahead of his time. His menswear is considered smart, refined and mature – qualities the FashionBeans man can relate to – yet he manages to distinguish himself from his peers through subtle nuances and a focus on detailing.

Contemporary tailoring, formal shirting and elegant knits form the basis of his current collections, and they are a great place to start if you are dipping your toes into the world of avant garde fashion for the first time.

Look out for: Prints, patterned tailoring and classics with a twist.

Dries Van Noten Menswear: SS13

This season it is all about camouflage. It comes in all forms; blazers, trousers, tees, outerwear; blues, greens, browns and khaki base tones. This is the type of clothing Dries Van Noten was born to make.

The cut is slim and refined, which makes integrating these trend pieces effortless and reinforces a more mature approach to prints. Why not try a camo shirt or tee layered under your timeless navy blazer this spring/summer?

Other themes of note include striking orange pieces that will inject a shot of life into any ensemble and patterned blazers/tailoring – not just the aforementioned camouflage print but also a variety of checks and beautiful tartans:
