Indian autumn has approached us with biting winds and sudden showers of rain. As a style-conscious Indian man, this is the perfect opportunity to refresh your wardrobe and seek something beyond the usual sweaters and raincoats. This is why, we've tracked fashion patterns on couture runways and curated a brief list of 2024's hottest trends that define luxury fall fashion for men.
Here's what you can purchase this autumn to flaunt your men's high-fashion outfits.
- Denim-on-Denim: Y2K Reimagined
This fall, the denim-on-denim trend makes a bold return for Indian men, inspired by the Y2K era. You can try the latest denim styles, from baggy fits and mom jeans to wide legs, boot cuts, etc. High-waisted jeans add a vintage, preppy touch, creating a taller silhouette that pairs well with canvas sneakers or loafers. For a modern twist, go for denim carpenter pants with functional pockets for all your essentials.
Off-white denims are unfortunately overlooked and unknown. Pair an off-white denim jacket with raw denim pants. An off-white denim is a flexible shade that complements fall palettes consisting of darker colours like bottle green, burgundy, and navy. The key to nailing double denim this fall is confidence and style, making it a must-have for any contemporary Indian wardrobe.
- Knitted Crochet Shirts: Elite Artisanal Comfort
A knitted crochet is a unique shirt that is either knitted with crochet work on the top. Or, vice versa. A knitted crochet shirt is softer, warmer, and ideal for unpredictable weather. This fall, knitted crochet shirts for men are rising in popularity. Investing in a high-grade men's crochet shirt will help you in the long run. Firstly, the artistic value of the shirt is a huge plus. You also end up getting superior long-term clothing that can withstand rough use.

- Khaki - The 2024 Fall Colour
The khaki colour is a versatile hue that has travelled the world to fit into different environments. It finds its origins in military uniforms of desert surroundings. The khaki colour ranges from a light sandy shade to a deep olive shade. Instead of restricting this unique shade to its namesake pants, we can incorporate it into diverse clothing items, like these cargo pants.
- Checked Prints Craze
Checks are coming back this fall for an updated aesthetic look. These prints are not just your basic checks and boxes. There are different types of check prints. Think buffalo checks, tartan, tattersall, gingham, window pane, Prince of Wales, houndstooth, etc. Let's break it down.
Prince of Wales is best for business check prints. It is a classy pattern for men's formal wear. Houndstooth is most often made of tweed and found in overcoats. It provides maximum sophistication in formal settings. Tartans are usually reserved for casual fall occasions - such as barbeques in the backyard.
The easiest way to introduce checks to your wardrobe is through accessories. You can start wearing checkered ties or pocket squares. These provide a visual pop to plain formals. Glen checks, Prince of Wales, and window panes are the best options for your ties. Ultimately, the size and the nature of the checks depend on the formality of the occasion and your fashion preferences.
