Abercrombie & Fitch makes an early move into pre-fall with Raphael Diogo, revisiting American prep through the relaxed proportions that have reshaped the brand’s menswear. Striped ties accompany denim jackets and chambray shirts. Roomy jeans make familiar collegiate references more casual.

One standout pairing puts Raphael in double denim with a loosely knotted striped tie. It borrows from the long American tradition of mixing Ivy League dress codes with workwear.

Elsewhere, a striped button-down joins white jeans and brown suede tassel loafers, with a red sweater for an unmistakably preppy flourish. A washed red jacket with a corduroy collar offers another route into the season, worn over a white shirt and striped tie with dark denim.

Small styling decisions drive the prep throughout Abercrombie’s pre-fall edit. A tie, loafers, or an extra knit can shift everyday denim toward the collegiate wardrobe as summer gives way to fall.

Abercrombie’s denim philosophy continues into fall with a New York-shot campaign shaped around the same collegiate wardrobe.
