A great way to guarantee you’ll finally use up all those vacation days: Invest in an overnight bag that demands to be seen. These four just so happen to be historically significant, each hailing from an outgoing designer’s final collection for their house: Kim Jones at Dior Men, Jonathan Anderson at Loewe, Sabato De Sarno at Gucci, and Simone Bellotti at Bally.
Prints That Bite Back
The trick to pulling off a swaggering, texture-rich animal-print jacket like this one? Treat it like you would a plain leather biker and keep the underpinnings simple. If you’re looking to embrace the leopard-spot revival currently sweeping fashion, lean all the way in. The only way to wear the stuff is to be as ferociously confident as the big cats themselves.
Swanky Velvets
Nothing like a dose of regal velvet to make you feel like a louche ’70s guitar god—even if you’re just suiting up for a spin on the dance floor at your cousin’s wedding.
One Good Buy: A Fleece That Actually Fits
This month’s wardrobe upgrade from GQ.com’s team of shopping experts. Hit “Add to cart” pronto.
When designer Spencer Phipps set out to reimagine the classic American wardrobe, it didn’t take him long to arrive at the fleece jacket. But unlike many drab, shapeless riffs, this cadmium-red Basecamp fleece pulls inspiration from brolic ski jackets, with nylon shoulder paneling and a bungee cord adjuster to lock in a precise fit. Toss it over a hooded sweatshirt, rugby, or flannel, or make like Phipps himself and wear it with all three. —Avidan Grossman
