Product Development

For my Intro to Product Development course, I completed a full end-to-end product development project - from initial trend identification to building the final tech pack. The work showcased below reflects my research into the past three years of cultural and aesthetic shifts. I studied fashion shows, influencers, media, film, award shows, and political movements to understand how these forces shape emerging menswear trends.

In my analysis, I illustrate how this trend appears on the runway from designers like Armani, Ralph Lauren, and Amiri, and how it then trickles down to accessible brands such as Todd Snyder and Banana Republic. This research informed my forecast for Fall/Winter 2026 menswear, identifying Old Money Streetwear—rooted in monochromatic neutrals paired with jewel-tone accessories—as a defining emerging trend.

Across the slides, you can follow how the trend surfaces, evolves, and where it’s heading. You’ll also see the assortment, silhouettes, and style groupings that bring this trend to life, along with a moodboard for a potential store concept and a full tech pack.
