It's not really shocking that camouflage is back. It never really went away. But then again, why should it? The military motif is ruggedly masculine and muted in a way that allows it to somehow read as understated. Which is why high-end designers and mass brands find new ways to reproduce them season after season. So yeah, camo patterns have been hot before, but the stylish reinventions for Fall 2018 provide a fresh way to liven up your wardrobe without looking like an off-duty soldier. The volume has been turned up a bit. There's a more athletic and slightly luxurious feel to the pieces. And we're all for it. So find a piece or two to suit your style. Herewith, a few of our favorites.
