After reshuffling its womenswear offering, Tranoï will showcase a selection of menswear for autumn-winter 2014-15. In addition to an array of grooming products and interior design good which were successfully introduced last session, the show will, this time around, feature collaboration between Aigle and British designer Nigel Cabourn, a collection which caters for both men and women.

Certainly one to watch, French label Kart will be present with its second collection of bag for men after a successful launch in department store Galeries Lafayette of its first. Italy will be well represented by Aimo Richly (pictured) with its high-tech knit and daring prints.

British sensations YMC and Unconditional will be present at the show, alongside tailor Richard James of Savile Row, fresh from his first runway show at London Collection: Men.

To round off, Berlin has thrown its hat into the area with the Berlin Showroom which will be held in the entrace of MAN. Launched last season, the show looks to shed light on design talent straight out of the German capital.
