Polarized Fashion

Polarized world, polarized fashion. That's about it! We are living in a time when everything has two (or sometimes more) sides. Choices, attitudes, politics, behaviors and fashion, of course, which is a reflection of everything we live in society. But fashion thus polarized for being positive.

We can say that we have a place of comfort to choose what we are going to wear today. Although we know that today fashion is much more democratic, in terms of social issues, we still focus on aesthetic issues. And that's great, after all, it makes the machine turn.

Here we are not going to talk about behavior, but about appearance. So we can conclude that we have spectrums, that we have poles in fashion that allow us to choose between more minimalist and simple items (but no less luxurious and quality) and maximalist items (but which are not always synonymous with quality). This all happens because trend swings happen almost weekly and give us too many options to choose from. Bad because we can't manage to use or have something in time, good because we can choose from so many options what suits us best.

Less is more

Minimalism has been an inexhaustible source of several trends, in addition to fashion, it is successful in decoration, gastronomy and automobiles. Less details, more quality, this is one of the main goals of minimalism. Even though minimalism preaches this diminishing trend, there are trends in minimalism as well. One of them, which is super high in fashion, is quiet luxury.

We can define it with a more minimalist, more simplified luxury. The idea here is to choose pieces from great brands, which have quality above all else, with traditional and classic colors and models. It does have a modern footprint, in design and shapes. But nothing is over the top and flashy.

The only piece of information that cannot be left behind is that this trend is linked to quality, finishing and raw materials. Even the most colorful brands have put versions in a quiet luxury style on the market, as the trend has gained huge proportions and has been requested by fashion.

Maximalism

On the other side are the excesses, the vibration of colors. Men's fashion has undergone a lot of changes lately, opening up to many possibilities. The arrival of creative directors in traditional secular brands made fashion more fun, less full of rules and constraints. Combinations of different prints, strong colors, genderless pieces. On the streets of different countries in Europe, menswear has always had this nuance, and now the world is also receiving this funnier opening of menswear.

Maximalist fashion was very attached to the profiles of creative people, artists, and fashion professionals. Today it is urban and is in the windows of the streets and malls, showing that men can be eccentric too!
