It is true to say that streetwear has conquered the planet. It's a global phenomenon that spans fashion and all veins of popular culture. Despite its popularity, it is by no means a new trend. Streetwear has a 50-year history, rich in cultural icons. He was born and raised in California with surfers and skateboarders. Basically, the styles were made to withstand the skatepark, easy-to-wear items in denim, strong cottons and loose fits for girls or boys.
Streetwear owes much of its heritage to the USA . In the mid-'80s, around the time sneaker culture in New York was in its infancy, streetwear was making a name for itself on the West Coast as a talented surfboard designer and shaper. These teenagers with a penchant for punk and next-generation-inspired graphics, have also drawn inspiration from well-known artists to sign their works in a way reminiscent of handmade graffiti . With this inspiration, streetwear began to put its signature stamp on boards and also on a series of graphic t-shirts that would go on to form the beginnings of the streetwear brand.
After its popularity in California, the streetwear style spread to the West Coast where it became a mainstay of skate and hip-hop in New York. Early streetwear brands drew inspiration from counterculture tribes and their do-it-yourself style. Punk, heavy metal, and hip-hop have all been embodied in casual styles. The hip-hop scene was instrumental in the evolution of streetwear, with established sportswear brands like Kangol and Adidas wanting to keep up with the explosive hip-hop revolution of the 1980s . From the mid-1980s, sportswear and streetwear became synonymous. American professional sports franchises have had a great impact on global clothing style. Los Angeles Raiders and Chicago Bulls caps and jackets have been adopted on sportswear and in music videos, not only as indicators of favorite team, but also as fashion statements.
The 80s aesthetic was heavy when it came to sportswear. The cool kids wore tracksuits and jumpsuits, classics from Reebok, Converse, Diadora Maverick's and the new Adidas Pro Shells. Basketball players achieved idol status and thus saw the rise of basketball-inspired sportswear.
Michael Jordan , the most famous sportsman of the time, fueled the success of Nike's Air Jordans, which were launched in 1984 . The shoes remain a staple, and major collaborations over the years have cemented the Jordans as the holy grail of basketball.
The singers and musical idols of the 80s were names like Grandmaster Flash, Run DMC, the Beastie Boys and, in 1987, NWA A generation of hip-hop heads was born, each eager to copy the clothes of their favorite hero. The style was that of xxl t-shirts, designer tracksuits and bomber jackets. Accessorizing was a must, Kangol hats like LL Cool J's, heavy gold chains and wide lace-up hip hop-style sneakers.
The opulence of the 90s stands in stark contrast to the sportswear of the 80s. Biggie, Tupac and Mace defined this era and much of their lifestyle charted the streetwear trends that still dominate today. Timberland boots, denim, high-end sportswear, plaid flannel and pocket jackets were everywhere. Brands such as Champion, Wu-Wear and Avirex made sportswear to be seen. High-end brands were beginning to acknowledge the power of hip-hop idols and to cater to this new clientele. Brands like Guess, Versace, Moschino and Calvin Klein paved the way for high-end, fashion-focused denim .
The 2000s saw the arrival of " Bling " culture and an even faster growth of hip-hop into the mainstream. At the turn of the century, established luxury brands entered the streetwear market. Gucci , Burberry and Fendi now regularly appear in music videos as well as on the red carpet. High fashion brands recognized the power of celebrity and the hip-hop trend was the type of counterculture that streetwear styles were a hit with. Hip-hop has become synonymous with streetwear from early singers like LL Cool J to current figures like ASAP Rocky and Kanye, the impact on fashion is obvious.
The style, once modest , has managed to establish itself in the upper echelons of fashion. The seismic transformation of our everyday attire is part of how a small movement in skate fashion took over the world . Everyday and work wear has become infinitely more casual, with sneakers and jeans now acceptable for just about any event.
Luxury brands have fully embraced streetwear. From Balenciaga to Fendi, current collections are full of pieces that are more reminiscent of skatewear and early hip-hop than haute couture. Streetwear allows its wearer to blend high and low fashion into a look they quickly recognize. Partnerships have catapulted brands and celebrities . Today, the more the item is out of stock, the greater the demand. It's not unusual to see hundreds of t-shirts lined up outside a Balenciaga store on sale day, and their resale value can skyrocket within minutes. The so-called "weight" of a brand is part of the attraction it has on many individuals. The basic emblem of a brand is the new way to show its belonging to a tribe. Today there is no difference between men's fashion or women's fashion because the unisex clothing look has taken over.
As with many movements, there is a cult of secrecy in much of the streetwear world. Exclusivity and access to limited edition products, the compulsive excitement caused by scarcity, all this frequently drives fashionistas crazy.
For a once- simple style, created on the beaches of California , adopted in the New York hip-hop and skate scenes, and then endorsed by the world, streetwear is here to stay!
