From fairisle bobble hats to bow ties, there’s no doubt the AW12 season has some key inspirational looks for your wardrobe. Whether you’re off to build the first snowman of the year (we can’t wait!) or have a Christmas soirée to attend, take a look at our fashion faves, for men!

HANDSOME HERITAGE

Inspired by the best of British fashion, think fairisle patterns, tweed detailing and classic leather. A must for the winter season is a fairisle jumper. The beauty of this style staple is that you don’t need to worry about matching when mixing prints is key. In this case, the tweed swatch is from Next’s Brown Wool Mix Check Gilet – a great transitional piece. Finish off with tan or chocolate leather accessories, such as brogues, a simple belt or even this leather holdall. For all the girls reading this, we all know one guy who would love a pair of Christmas socks! Perfect stocking filler, oui?

Other wardrobe essentials for the military trend are the black biker boots and quilted jacket – which can be teamed with a denim shirt for a casual look or smartened up with the two tone roll neck.
