About

HAUTE CONCEPT is a menswear fashion blog, examining the current trends and culture affecting menswear, with a focus on New York.

Named by Shiny Media (the U.K.’s largest blog network) as one of the Top Ten men’s fashion and style blogs in the world we share the latest trends and cutting edge looks. In addition, we provide news and commentary on issues affecting the menswear industry. We target keys of style ranging from the fit, construction and quality of clothing to the importance that cleanliness, upkeep and maintenance of one-self play in the role of style.

We target the ever growing niche market of fashion-conscious male consumers, who are taking control of their style and appearance.

By navigating the quandary that is menswear, we empower and share with our readers: the styles and trends happening now, where things are heading and how it translates to your lifestyle.

Founded in 2006 by Editor Aaron Diaz, HAUTE CONCEPT aims to redefine the boundaries between a lifestyle brand, weblog and an online magazine. Starting off as an accessories brand HAUTE CONCEPT has branched out to an online publication of men’s style. Coming from a unique perspective HAUTE CONCEPT retains the opinionated tone and credibility of a weblog while incorporating interviews and articles typically associated with an online magazine.

HAUTE CONCEPT is regularly updated with industry news, interviews, commentary and musings, reports on latest trends and diary dates for exhibitions, shows and sample sales.

A varied reader base ranges from fashion professionals within the industry to those that enjoy and appreciate the culture of fashion.
