Groom fashion is taking bold new strides in 2025. While timeless classics remain a staple, grooms are leaning into self-expression with adventurous choices and statement looks. From daring combinations to creative twists, they’re redefining what it means to dress for the big day. Here are 10 major trends we predict will shape groomswear in 2025.
Unique Detailing
Traditionally, brides have embraced all the sparkle, but in 2025, grooms are joining the trend with their own unique flair. Beadwork, colorful bows, pearls, and subtle metallic accents are making their way into grooms’ wardrobes, adding a touch of personality and creativity. This trend highlights the shift toward more expressive and statement-making groom styles, ensuring they stand out just as much as their partners.

Long Story Short
While formal trousers remain a timeless classic, knee-length shorts offer a contemporary twist that’s just as chic and sophisticated for your wedding look. They’re an excellent choice for grooms looking to keep things fresh, fun, and comfortable, all while maintaining a sharp and modern appearance. Perfect for summer weddings or celebrations in warmer climates.

Timeless & Sleek
Nothing beats the classic. A well-tailored suit is always a foolproof choice for any groom. Think sleek cuts, impeccable tailoring, and a focus on fit. Opt for sophisticated blacks and whites- these colors exude refinement and will stand the test of time, ensuring you look sharp and polished, no matter the year. To complete your look, pair your suit with a bow tie and a pair of elegant lace-up shoes.

Soft Ivory Hues
We've been seeing more and more grooms choosing ivory for their wedding fashion, and we expect this trend to grow even stronger in 2025. The soft, creamy shade offers a fresh take on the traditional, bringing a refined and modern feel to wedding attire. We love ivory for its versatility—it’s perfect for both formal and semi-formal weddings and can be paired with a wide range of accent colors, from soft pastels to bold, striking tones.

Boxy Silhouettes
Boxy, slightly oversized double-breasted blazers are definitely one of our favorite groomswear trends thus far. This comfort-meets-style combination brings an effortlessly cool touch that is perfect for outdoor, modern city ceremonies, and casual wedding celebrations. You can easily pair a boxy blazer with a formal shirt, or, if feeling bold, skip the shirt altogether for a fashion-forward statement. For the bottoms, loose-fit trousers or even dark jeans work perfectly, adding a more contemporary feel to your look.

Statement Bow Ties
Make way for the bow tie - bigger, bolder, and unapologetically stylish! Voluminous bows are a fashion-forward alternative to the time-honored classic, bringing an avant-garde edge to wedding attire. Whether crafted from silk, velvet, or playful prints, they add instant drama and personality. Perfect for grooms looking to stand out, statement bow ties are redefining formalwear in 2025.

All-White Elegance
All-white groom styles are here to stay in 2025! For a look that’s both timeless and stylish, this is the trend to watch. To add a touch of contrast, consider pairing the ensemble with a few black accessories, like a tie or shoes, while keeping the overall aesthetic minimal and monochromatic. The result? A modern, fashionable, and visually stunning outfit that’s perfectly coordinated with your partner.

Playful Prints
Just because a wedding is a formal event doesn’t mean your attire has to be boring. If you’re a creative spirit, let your outfit reflect that side of you. Whether it’s bold floral prints, abstract shapes, meaningful words, or custom art doodles—choose whatever best represents your personality. And if you’re a maximalist at heart… go for it!

Creative Boutonniere
Traditional boutonnieres remain a classic choice, but grooms are getting more creative with their accessories. From wheat strands and dried-grass pins to playful, flower-shaped brooches, these small details pack a big punch when it comes to adding personality and charm to the overall look.

High-Waisted Cummerbunds
Vintage-inspired wedding fashion has been a big hit this past year, and the trend is carrying over into 2025. High-waisted trousers complete with a cummerbund sash offer a vintage-meets-modern twist. Pair them with a tuxedo jacket and/ or a tucked-in shirt to let the sash stand out.
