Camo, cropped pants and distressed jeans are still trending in male fashion in 2017.
The military print remains something every man needs in his wardrobe according to fashionbeans.com.
Which is just fine with Jared Edwards, who is required to wear camo as an armed forces member.
“I am in the Army ROTC, which has caused me to become familiar with wearing the print,” said Jared Edwards jokingly.
“It gives me that ability to express not only love for my country but also the chance to walk in the footsteps of my uncle,” added Edwards, a junior business administration major from Biloxi, Miss.
According to fashionbeans.com, ankle skinny trousers are out and distressed jeans and cropped pants cut just above the ankle are in for spring 2017. This style is more relaxed but not baggy.
Broderic Simpson believes individual style is most important, not following trends.
“Fashion is a way of self expression due to an individual being able to dress according to their own individual preference,” said Simpson, a sophomore theatre major from Atlanta, Ga. “This allows a men to be both attractive while also being comfortable at the same time.”
Nigel Davenport believes that clothing is a representation of personality as well as character.
“Most males feel confident when their clothing represents their feelings at that current moment,” said Davenport, a junior speech communication major from Vicksburg, Miss. “It gives males an outlet to be diverse and not feel limited to a box.”
Danielle Kincaid appreciates a well-dressed man.
“I like a well-dress male that presents himself in a presentable manner,” said Kincaid, a junior speech communication major from Texarkana, Texas.
Kincaid went on to state that she does not care for sagging pants or the grunge look.
“I have been taught that presentation is everything and that includes in my opinion male’s fashion especially in today’s society,” said Kincaid.
While staying abreast of the latest fashion trends, college students must also pay close attention to budgeting.
“I tend to shop in stores like Burlington and Ross,” said Christopher O’Neil, a junior mathematics major from Chicago, Ill. “This allows me to be both trending while at the same time staying in my personal budget.”
Jackson State students that want to be trending can stop at Burlington Coat Factory, TJ Max, and H & M, and more to achieve these trending looks.
