32 Fashion-Editor Approved Menswear Pieces From Massimo Dutti
If you’re looking for high street pieces that could pass for designer, Massimo Dutti’s menswear department is the ticket. It has long been a go-to for great tailoring, everyday basics and quality yet affordable denim, but this season, the brand’s outdone itself. The SS24 collection feels expensive, looks designer and is full of pieces you will wear now, keep forever. Let us do the hard work for you and pick our edit of the best…
If your style errs on the side of quiet luxury and you don’t want to buy into too many trends but still want to look cool and pulled together, Massimo Dutti is the high street’s secret weapon. The cuts are spot on, colour palettes wearable and the quality of their denim, leather and accessories is by far some of the best we have seen on the high street.
Massimo Dutti is the high street’s secret weapon.
What it does particularly well are those capsule pieces which will form a strong foundation for myriad looks. From well-cut T-shirts in the perfect-weight cotton to jeans that are flattering but well under £100, lightweight jackets necessary in a British summer to polo shirts that make getting dressed in the morning easy.

Classic Shirts
Everyone’s wardrobe needs a few classic shirts, from wafty white linen that will take you through sticky London heatwaves to preppy blue stripes to relaxed denim and a baseball cap. Massimo Dutti has an abundance, all worked in great cuts and quality fabrics at a good price point – they generally come in around the £60 mark.
It feels very Celine Homme for a fraction of the price.
Favourites this season include the punchy raspberry linen shirt – great paired with a pair of striped shorts on holiday; and the military-inspired overshirt with pocket detail in a muted light brown – it feels very Celine Homme for a fraction of the price.

Designer-Look Suiting
If you’re in the market for a new suit without an eye-watering price tag, check out Massimo Dutti’s tailoring line. From sharp, rock ‘n’ roll skinny suits to more fluid, linen co-ords, they’ve got you covered.
Great Summer Shackets
A good lightweight jacket is a must for the British summer months. Check out Massimo Dutti’s excellent line, which includes modish Harrington-style shapes and utilitarian cuts in breathable cotton. Special mention must also go to the new-season suede shacket — a little warm right now but a serious investment to take you into autumn.

Easy-Wear Polos
A good polo can make or break a look and Massimo Dutti has nailed the brief when it comes to style and fit. The knitted pieces lean into that summer Italian menswear aesthetic and come in a range of subtle shades, from pale pink to sage green.
Perfect with a tailored trouser, loafer and no socks in the summer and swap for a long-sleeved, chunkier knit come the chillier months – we particularly love their pillar box red ribbed number.

Everyday Basics
There are three stores on the high street that we consider the Holy Trinity of good basics. COS, ARKET and Massimo Dutti. Head to the latter for near-perfect white T-shirts, great denim for well under £100 and timeless knits. All of which will create a great base to build the rest of your look.

Elevated Accessories
Lastly, Massimo Dutti is well worth checking out for accessories too. The leather range is well-priced and sumptuously soft for the high street, and the shoe selection is modern but paired back, from classic desert boots to leather sandals.
