Gentlemen, gather ’round — if you’ve been looking for the perfect blend of street-soul and smart-cut, look no further than the latest drop from Mo Gilligan and NEXT. This isn’t just a celeb-label tie-up, it’s a proper wardrobe reset.
Mo Gilligan has always been about personality — energy, humour, life. When he turned his attention to menswear, the mission was clear: bring real people pieces that look sharp but don’t sacrifice comfort. The NEXT collaboration delivers exactly that. On the NEXT site, the range is described as “a confident, contemporary style, seamlessly blending comfort with sharp, on-trend details”.
The Pieces You’ll Actually Wear
We’re talking tees, roll-necks, alike- jackets, trousers that pass both chill-out and step-out tests. Key pieces include:
- A Black Relaxed Fit Heavyweight T-Shirt — clean, minimal, staples done right.
- A Brown Regular Fit Cotton Rich Roll Neck Jumper — crisp enough under a blazer or solo with your favourite jeans.
- A Tan Brown Regular Fit Signature Suede Blazer — yes, blazer. Because comfort doesn’t exclude style elevation.
Why It Works
- It’s versatile. These are pieces you can wear from Friday drinks, to Sunday brunch, to a smart-casual meeting.
- It’s grounded. The fabrics, the fits, the combos — all sensible. No over-the-top hype, just well-considered menswear.
- It’s accessible. Mo’s name fronting it gives it personality; NEXT backing gives it reach. And the prices are realistic for what you’re getting.
How to Style It
- Throw the roll-neck jumper under the suede blazer. Smart enough for business-casual, relaxed enough for the weekend.
- Pair the heavyweight tee with tailored chinos or smart joggers — the relaxed fit tee gives the street edge, the trousers bring the polish.
- Keep your shoes clean — white leather trainers or suede loafers both work. Finish with a watch and maybe a subtle lapel pin if you’re feeling bold.
- Colour palette? Stick to the range: black, brown/tan, dark green, navy. Let the fits and texture do the talking.
In short: if you’ve been waiting for menswear that bridges the gap between “I work hard” and “I know how to enjoy life” — this Mo Gilligan × NEXT collection is that bridge. The kind of drop where you walk out the door feeling like you’ve dressed deliberately, not just thrown on something.
Gear up, gents — your wardrobe’s about to get a little sharper.
