Bugatchi teaches us the art of layering with their Fall and Winter drop: Momentum

Soft structured wool blazers over garments tailored for movement; Bugatchi presents the Italian Daydream

There are a lot of benefits to my gig. As a style and travel writer, I get a lot of brands that want to work with me. They say, “try this out,” and “can we convince you that we’re the best?” It is a tough job of putting on the best clothing and going to the best places just so I can experience them and report back to you so you can make an informed decision. I, and all my friends here at The Manual, selflessly indulge in the best of the best of the man’s world. Bugatchi is one brand that I have been a fan of for a long time. They redefined the dress shirt with their OoohCotton and, if you haven’t tried it, then we should talk, because I am sure we can and should replace your entire closet.

But they don’t just do dress shirts. They can tackle most of your closet, and they just released the Bugatchi Fall & Winter Lookbook: Momentum. The most striking part of this lookbook is the way it lends to layering, the perfect fall wardrobe must.

Italian daydream

The autumn weather is unpredictable, which means you feel like you have to dress for every temperature every single morning. Bugatchi knows this, clearly, as almost all of the looks start with a baselayer, a mid-layer, and then a jacket or blazer over the top. While this may be a functional aspect of the fall, it also has an incredible style use as it allows you to play with colors, fabrics, and depth in ways that elevate your style every day. Everything from contrasted blues and taupes to monochromatic reds and grays, your fall wardrobe is deeper and more attractive with a simple method of styling high-quality pieces from Bugatchi.

Why is it called Momentum? Because, just like OoohCotton, everything in the collection is not only built for style, but designed to move. Movement and momentum to get from one season to the next, seamlessly. Some standout pieces you should look to add to your closet:

BENRUS moves past reissues with its first original design in years
Watch, Strap, Dial

Every BENRUS watch since 2025 has been a rerun. The Type 3X is the first new episode. The American watchmaker founded in 1921 just dropped a brand-new, modern field watch built with input from former Tier One special-operations veterans.

It’s the first watch since the brand’s 2025 relaunch that isn’t a reissue of an old design: the Vietnam-era DTU-2A/P, the Type 1 and Type 2 favored by Navy SEALs and Special Forces, and the #3061 famously worn by Steve McQueen in “Bullitt.” The Type 3X breaks from that pattern entirely, built from scratch rather than pulled from an old catalog page.

TAG Heuer gives the Carrera Chronograph Sport a smaller, sharper redesign
Watches, Face, Dial

With Formula 1 arriving in Madrid this scorching summer, it is now apparently the perfect time for TAG Heuer to launch a super-hot, redesigned Carrera.

The La Chaux-de-Fonds-based watchmaker reworked the Carrera Chronograph Sport (its first real overhaul of the model since 2020), then included five new references. All of that lands alongside the launch of TAG Heuer’s title sponsorship of the Spanish Grand Prix, Formula 1’s first Madrid race since 1981.
