The Understanding Behind Current Street Clothes
From Rock music, through to Hip-hop, or Pop; clothes are an expression, within a certain group of individuals.
How can clothes convey ideas in a way that continues to evolve so rapidly? Fashion is constantly renewing itself to the point where it becomes absurd to say the word fashion!
Street wear can include many different styles at once, from fashion for everyday wear, or for young freedom-loving people. It is usually used by people belonging to a group that shares the same dreams. Streetwear is a broad category used to describe clothing which provides an alternative to more mainstream pop-culture brands that can be traditionally found in department stores, malls, and other high-volume retail environments.
The “Street Wear”, or translated literally street clothes, is a sign of belonging to a group, community, neighborhood, or culture. It may even be for art designers, or people who seek to innovate, giving free rein to their imaginations.
It is obvious today that new styles of music create each time a new cultural trend, marked by a new “look”, a signature of creative originality. It goes even further by appropriating a way of dance, behavior or thought. The good thing about streetwear is that it is accessible both to women and men.
An expression made accessible to the masses, especially young people. Although looking back at its roots streetwear wasn’t as accessible as it is today. Currently you can find whole chains dedicated to this type of clothing in every shopping mall you go to.
It must be remembered in this context the different generations such as: Hippie or Punk, which date from the years 70 and 80. These movements are taken by young people or even adults, who want to be different or rebel against the common norms, or stand against conformists.
Fashion by definition is the current style, that is to say that fashion is against any kind of rigid and stagnant creation, whether clothing or otherwise. Fashion is light, fresh as the gentle river of life, but can fathom within it all new spheres of imagination, and it does not necessarily please every time, or please everyone.
The fashion trends are profoundly a social phenomena, they are manifestations of ideas and aspirations expressed or implied in a crowd. But beware these days of commercial nature of some forms which pretend to be a cultural mode, but are designed purely for profit.
