If it’s true that with autumn comes the need to renew your wardrobe, it’s also true that you can “play” with the season’s trends, experimenting. For the Fall-Winter 2018/19 season, the rule is to focus on a few versatile accessories and have fun with a world of unexpected combinations. Starting with the classic Chesterfield coat: a wardrobe staple that has been essential for men’s clothing for a century. Whether in solid color or check, as in the variations proposed by Canali, it is now rediscovered in an urban version thanks to the pairing with sneakers. Yes, the latter, a streetwear staple, is now embraced for the season by Dior Homme, Valentino, and Prada.

With every barrier that was supposed to exist between the runway and streetwear, as well as between formal and casual wear, now broken, here are four new options for winter that you may not have thought about.

  1. The web has a new object of desire: the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 “Sesame”. Kanye West’s latest creation for adidas seems to be releasing on Black Friday (November 23). If you are among the few who manage to get a pair, the advice is to pair it with a slightly oversized classic coat with two or three buttons.

  1. If you are not a fan of monochrome sneakers, the new Gucci chunky sneakers could be the option for you. Games of proportions and overlays – both in color and texture – blend perfectly with long checkered coats down to the ankles, or with the more structured double-breasted in Prince of Wales coat, a star of Corneliani’s winter collection.

  2. Textures and colors also guide the latest capsule designed by J.W. Anderson for Converse, as the British designer plays with materials, particularly felt, creating a capsule that can be paired – for both irreverence and versatility – with the endless variations of camel coats.

  3. Finally, a certainty in the mash-up of the two worlds, Balenciaga presents both the track mesh sneakers, a tribute to the world of trekking, and the oversized technical fabric parka that goes down to mid-calf.
