When it comes to specific styles, there are some that we see returning to streetwear collections year after year. These staples lay the foundations for our wardrobes, and they provide stability in a world of constant change.
Trends, on the other hand, are more fluid. Some see whole or even multiple seasons through. Others last just a few weeks. They’re the splashes of personality we can add to our wardrobes to give others a glimpse into our psyches. Find out this year’s steaming hot winter streetwear outfit trends below.
Taking preppy to the streets
Preppy is in this winter, with pieces like varsity jackets and sweater vests taking centre stage. Collegiate style has long held a place in wardrobes across the world, but this year its appeal was ever more visible in New York, London, Milan and Paris runways with models sporting colourful vintage pieces.
Channel your inner college student by combining an iconic varsity jacket with a slim-fit pair of jeans or joggers and some eye-catching trainers and you’ll get full marks from us.
Our top pick:
Pair with:
Slim jeans or joggers.
Gimme more Gorpcore
With household designers signing collab deals with veteran outdoor clothing brands in the not-too-distant past, streetwear has followed suit with outdoor-style pieces popping up in collections throughout the year. Expect more windbreakers, gilets and cargos to appear in next season’s collections as the weather becomes more unpredictable.
Our top picks:
HIDDEN DRAGON CARGO PANTS - DARK KHAKI
Pair with:
Y2K here to stay?
It was only a matter of time before the iconic style borne off fears of the technological apocalypse made a comeback.
The decade gave birth to fashion created on the back of anxieties around the millennium bug so confusion and fear of technology mixed with the desire to go out with a bang weave their way through the fashion of this period.
Blend this with the rise of hip hop artists that initiated the gradual blurring of boundaries between their genre and pop music. All of that is pretty well reflected in y2k fashion.
Our top picks:
POKEMON CHARIZARD HOODIE - BLACK WASH
Pair with: baggy camo pants and a bucket hat for a bold winter streetwear outfit
Perfect mismatch
Unapologetically incongruous, mismatching maximalism is here to stay for a while. Might it be one of the trends we wince at in the near future? That’s pretty much a given. But we may as well enjoy it while it lasts.
Our top picks:
What could be more maximalist than our alarmingly red dragon design sweater? Potentially only the combining of it with our army camo pants.
