As per fashion forecasting agency Promostyl, luxury fabric trends for menswear in Autumn/Winter 2025-26 signals a shift toward tactile richness, sustainability, and a balance between timeless elegance and modern innovation. This season marks a ‘rebirth of textured fabrics,’ as designers move beyond strict minimalism to create pieces that deliver a more sensory, intimate experience.

Trends for the season

Tactile and textured fabrics
The standout trend of the season. Expect fabrics with depth and dimension - plush velvets, detailed jacquards, and chunky knits. Designers are embracing 3D embellishments and layered weaves that deliver both visual intrigue and a rich hand feel.

Faux fur
Once associated mainly with womenswear, faux fur is becoming a staple in men’s wardrobes. Used in coats, collars, and trims, it adds boldness and a luxurious edge to outerwear.

Reinvented classics
Traditional menswear fabrics are getting a modern refresh with tweed, houndstooth, and heritage checks being reimagined with unexpected textures and contemporary colors. Sustainable options like recycled wool and melange felt are also on the rise, reflecting the industry’s move toward circular fashion practices.

High-tech and performance fabrics
The ‘Urban Luxe’ trend continues, blending technical innovation with sophistication. Moisture-wicking, temperature-regulating fabrics are applied to elevated basics and luxury athleisure, making comfort and performance a core part of men’s style.

Luxurious naturals
Premium natural fibers remain essential. Prized for their soft, refined finishes, cashmere and fine wool lead the way. At the same time, the increasing use of ethically sourced wool and organic cotton underscores the growing emphasis on responsible, sustainable luxury.
