Dads may feel confident when cracking jokes or making scrambled eggs, but when it comes to fashion, they’re often left wandering and some stay lost looking at their wardrobe as seasons go by. However, with a little knowledge, it’s quite possible for them to leave a style statement.
If you’re a dad aspiring to be fashionable or just checking up on the latest of trends, here are a few suggestions that aren’t over the top and yet keep you in line with the latest in the world of fashion.
Printed Shorts & Boxers
If you love to hit the beach during summers to escape from the scorching heat, the trend for bathing suits includes printed shorts or boxers. However, you need to avoid the typical Hawaiian floral patterns and palm trees when it comes to the prints if you don’t want to go unnoticed.
You can branch out to something funkier and of interest to you. For instance, if you’re a superhero comic lover, you’d be quite in line with even some of the younger fathers on the beach by wearing iron man print shorts when you hit the waves.

Moving on to formal wear, bows are one of the trend setters this season. They’re being worn in an informal way to showcase the geeky fashion, but for formal wear, sophisticated combinations like pink bow ties with a white button down shirt are setting the rage.
Thin ties are also quite in fashion as well and when paired with a matching suit, there’s a great chance that you’ll be considered as the sexiest dad around on any formal occasion. For example, metallic grey is quite popular as a color for suits and looks outrageous when worn with a similar shade thin tie. There are several other options available so it really comes down to your personal preference in the end.
Camo Jackets
For every day wear, camo jackets are probably the most trending fashion item at the moment. They’re basically jackets with the camouflage (camo) pattern on them. The right color scheme will let you appear dapper, and perhaps the best thing about these jackets is that they don’t really show signs of stains and tear when they suffer from them.
You can also get one for your spouse and get a picture taken for the wedding anniversary invites. That’ll make one hell of an epic invitation.
Colored Pants
Colored pants have been seen in large numbers on the runaway, and there’s a vast range of color options to choose from. However, dad appropriate colors might be more somber and dark tones, but they aren’t a necessity.
The recommended colors, however, include a shade that’s a mix of both burgundy and maroon. This shade is both dark yet different enough to be pulled off by most dads.
Dads shouldn’t be deprived of fashion as it’s now a crucial part of the society and also reflects personality. The above-mentioned trends will give you an idea of where to start your journey in being a dapper dad this season.
Stay gorgeous everyone!
