The Moschino pre-fall 2023 menswear collection has a style for every man

The Moschino Pre-Fall 2023 collection is creative director Jeremy Scott’s modern vision of punk, though not one rooted, necessarily, in anti-establishment sentiment. More so, it’s a playful and play-filled take on punk style, and how the term has evolved to stand for something much broader and more textured in the 2020’s.

Moreover, Punk, as he views it, is a character of fusion. It represents going against the grain, but never adhering to or becoming one type. It is taking the chaos of the world and making it one’s own. This viewpoint takes off with a patchwork Moto-trench hybrid, pieced together with tartan, military and leopard motifs, and studded for added effect.

A Free Expression Of Style

The collection progresses into more freewheeling joining, a wide and peaked lapel jacket reveals a Moto collar built in; a half-zip jumper features tartan-topped cargo pockets and grommets. A modified double-breasted leopard suit, tucked into high-calf patent leather boots, adds a retro reverb.

On top of that, Punk-fueled graphics enter not-so-quiet riot, such as anarchy symbols, oversized safety pin accents, and an all-over money print. On this, George Washington’s face appears, styled with sunglasses and underscored by “Moschino” written in mint-mimicking font.

Unconventional Style

At this stage, hints of grunge also come through, specifically a shredded hem and wide-leg Bermuda shorts, an oversize cardigan and a slouchy striped car coat are all in the mix. A beret by Judy Blame and a decadent blue-flowered finale series of foiled leather pieces underscore the intermixed resilience and enjoyment.

Ultimately, Scott is portraying something of a band. A group of like minded individuals drawn to the same interests, but with their own distinct manners and methods of dressing. It’s not about adapting or adopting another look in full. It’s about piecing it together, and seeing punk as fun.
