There\u2019s a different energy to ceremonies this season, one that doesn\u2019t rely on just grandeur, but it relies on you. At a time when men are dressing with more clarity than ever, Roger La Viale\u2019s AW \u201925 picks explore how ceremony can feel lighter, layered, and more expressive without stepping away from tradition. It\u2019s about fabrics that move like air, silhouettes that hold quiet power, and styling that makes room for individuality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This season\u2019s ceremonial looks are built on contrast: softness with structure, nostalgia with intention. Read on for the full breakdown of this season\u2019s most defining ceremonial and tuxedo trends.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ceremonial Luxury<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The man in ceremonial wear isn’t dressing for a moment, he\u2019s dressing to mark it. There\u2019s a stillness to how he carries tradition: not as a burden, but as something reinterpreted through ease and clarity. His presence doesn\u2019t rely on volume or extravagance. Instead, it\u2019s shaped by balance, by the precision of layering, the softness of form, and a quiet sense of reverence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Structure in Softness<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The classic sherwani steps aside to make room for heavy kurtas<\/strong> that hold structure without stiffness. Built from dense weaves and matte-finished blends, they\u2019re designed to anchor the look without overpowering it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Multi-dimensional fabrics<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Multi-dimensional fabrics<\/strong> lead the conversation: from puff-effect, textures<\/strong> and subtle quilting to tone-on-tone jacquards that shift under soft light. These pieces don\u2019t rely on embellishment. Their detail is woven into the surface itself\u2014intended for those who notice more than they look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transparency, Layered<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If softness is the new strength, then light transparent kurtas<\/strong> are its clearest form. Styled <\/strong>under tonal overlays or textured jackets, they create space between body and garment, an openness that feels both modern and ceremonial<\/strong>. The look is layered, yet impossibly light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sheer kurtas<\/strong> paired with open-front achkans bring movement to the traditional frame, revealing confidence beneath control. Prints, sequins and textures<\/strong>, when they appear, are handled with precision: used sparingly, placed intentionally, designed to suggest rather than declare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you see here isn\u2019t minimalism, it\u2019s mastery. A control over tone, volume, and texture that leaves room for the man to be seen, not hidden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tuxedo | Presence, Not Performance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If ceremonial wear is about softened strength, the tuxedo<\/strong> for AW\u201925 is about clarity. The silhouette is sharper. The detail is deliberate. The man in a tuxedo <\/strong>from our AW ’25 world doesn’t wear it for approval, he wears it because it aligns with who he is. There\u2019s no overstatement in his presence, just clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black and Ivory, in Sharp Focus<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ivory tuxedos<\/strong> emerge as the defining statement of the season. Cut with restraint and finished in satin <\/strong>or lightly lustrous wool blends<\/strong>, they are worn with tonal shirts or nothing at all. Ivory becomes the new power tone, not because it replaces black, but because it stands beside it with equal gravity.
<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Black, of course, still rules. But this season, it returns in layers, velvet, satin, matte crepe, refined down to the smallest decisions. The lapel shape, the button position, the clean fall of the trouser. \u201cBlack rules like never before\u201d <\/em>not because it\u2019s safe, but because it\u2019s sculpted.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tailoring as Expression<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n

\n

Where the tuxedo really evolves is in the jacket. This season, RLV frames the jacket as a canvas. Artistic jackets<\/strong>, featuring tonal floral threadwork, geometric placements, or foil-resist patterns. Cut with precision, their impact lies in how they move, how they catch light, how they stay with you after the wearer has walked past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paired with classic trousers or styled down with layered shirts and subtle jewellery, these jackets are no longer accessories. They are the conversation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In a year where fashion finally slowed down, Roger La Viale<\/a> didn\u2019t rush to react. It refined. It let the moment breathe. And in doing so, it has landed on a language of occasion-wear that feels completely in step with the present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These aren\u2019t garments that fight for attention. They\u2019re made for the man who already has it. Who knows the value of stillness. Who dresses not to make noise, but to leave an impression that lingers longer than the moment itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And in that space, measured, elegant, entirely his own, he evolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
