What to wear this spring? Wrong question. Instead, ask yourself: What style essentials are missing from my wardrobe? What staples am I missing — or are in desperate need of replacements — that will fill the gaps in my spring wardrobe? Much like the idea of spring cleaning, this time of the year is ideal to declutter your closet and evaluate what pieces would add the most value to your well-curated assortment of fashions and accessories. Then with complete clarity, you’ll be able to spot those fresh gems that’ll become timeless signatures instead of wasting your hard-earned money on fads of the moment that’ll be tomorrow’s fashion faux pas. When you’re ready, Mr P., Mr Porter’s in-house contemporary fashion brand, is where you should start your spring style search.
Back in 2017, Mr Porter utilized seven years of consumer insights to launch its own label with a team of designers and Mr Porter staff to create a collection of over 50 high-quality garments that their customers were craving with fairly reasonable price tags that merit the craftsmanship. Simply put, the online retailer saw Mr P. as an opportunity to fill the gaps in a man’s wardrobes with elevated fashion staples that stood the test of time — and boy, did they get it right.
Now, almost seven years following Mr P.’s launch, the brand has cultivated its own loyal following of well-dressed devotees that confidently shop the label’s core collection and seasonal offerings of suiting, casual separates, and a full range of footwear offerings that cover every occasion and need one could have for a modern wardrobe.
This spring, Mr P.’s collection features a total of over 330 pieces with fresh drops throughout the warm weather season. Tailoring, texture, and timeless design were the focus for the label’s latest spring 2025 collection, while a selection of inspiration — including photographer Elio Sorci’s Paparazzo, Patricia Highsmith’s “The Talented Mr Ripley,” and the film “Plein Soleil” — lent itself well to a capsule wardrobe of sunny delights with must-have linen separates, cotton essentials, and breezy knits in muted-yet-colorful shades of sun-bleached yellow, sage green, and other light pastel hues. Combined with pieces in earth tones, it’s an easy way for men to embrace color this season while mixing in their own year-round staples of navy and black fashions.
Whether you’re days are filled with a backdrop of the Mediterranean coast or an urban jungle, these easy, breezy pieces have men looking sharp this season for all occasions.
Mr P. James Straight-Leg Drawstring Trousers
Start with the pants you’ll need the most this season. Your business slacks are solid for the new season’s important business meetings, but for business casual days on the clock and weekends in the sun, opt for a classic straight-leg trouser in a breathable blend of cotton and linen. The drawstring waistband might make you question just how many days of the week does one really need to wear jeans.
