Proenza Schouler introduces a focused Menswear Capsule Collection for Fall Winter 2025, fronted by Henry Kitcher and shaped by the same design codes that defined the season’s womenswear. The proposition is clear: menswear that lives in the Proenza Schouler world rather than orbiting it, an edit that privileges texture, line, and a studied calm over noise.
AD CAMPAIGNS
The capsule lands where plush knitwear, easy tailoring, and art-inspired prints meet. Knits emphasize tactility and structure, think generous ribs, dense gauges, and soft surfaces that carry weight without bulk. Tailoring reads relaxed and precise: shoulders dropped just enough, trousers with an ease that lengthens the leg, and blazers cut to move rather than posture. Graphic notes, lifted from the collection’s art references, arrive as measured prints that animate shirts, knits, and outer layers without breaking the line.
Set within a shared visual landscape, the narrative continues the Fall Winter 2025 Campaign by Tim Ekaim, photographed in upstate New York at MANITOGA / The Russel Wright Design Center. The site’s interlock of modernist architecture and woodland becomes an argument for the clothes themselves: refined but elemental, considered but unforced. Kitcher moves through stone paths, timber frames, and filtered light, the palette tuned to materials and season rather than to trend.
What reads strongest is the collective design philosophy. The capsule doesn’t mimic the Proenza Schouler woman; it inhabits the same world, shared sensibilities in proportion, drape, and surface. Knit polos pair with fluid tailoring; collarless jackets sit against graphic base layers; coats flatten ornament in favor of cut. It’s a wardrobe that photographs beautifully but is built to be worn, a balance of studio rigor and off-duty ease.
For menswear obsessives, the cues track: texture over logos, proportion over gimmick, print as punctuation not headline. The result feels modern in the way that matters, quietly sharpened silhouettes that hold their shape through a winter of repetition, pieces that can slide from weekday to weekend without costume change.
With Henry Kitcher as its through line and Ekaim’s camera finding stillness amid motion, Proenza Schouler’s Menswear Capsule makes its case with restraint. FW25 doesn’t shout to be heard; it speaks in materials and cut, confident that those are the details that last. Keep an eye on the brand’s channels for the full lookbook and release information.
