The number one item on your New Year’s resolution should be to up your fashion game. We studied the fashion trends of 2023 which included the resurgence of Y2K fashion, cargo pants, maxi skirts, racing jackets, football jerseys, DIY crop tops, wide-leg pants, ugly shoe trends, and many more that dominated the scene.
However, 2024 is all about pushing boundaries, embracing bold choices, and expressing your unique style. We have compiled the top streetwear fashion trends to look out for in 2024. They include;
1. Opiumcore: think goth meets luxe style with this fashion trend. Opiumcore is a mixture of dark and elegant tones, this is an unconventional fashion that defies all norms. This trend was influenced by the artiste, Playboi Carti who is known for his all-black leather attires and chunky boots, the name “Opiumcore” is said to be coined from Playboi Carti’s record label, Opium.
2. Corporate-core/YuppieCore: Might be for its nostalgic value but expect to see a lot of millennials and GenZ in corporate attire, for instance, the come-back of the vintage receptionist glasses that we have seen the fashion world accessorize with their outfits, as well as oversized or strong-shouldered blazers that dominated fashion week recently. Think A$AP Rocky channeling Wall Street with a dash of streetwear swagger.
3. Jorts: Jorts offer endless outfit possibilities. Rock a classic denim-on-denim look with an oversized blazer and chunky sneakers for an effortless vibe. Embrace the athleisure trend by pairing them with a sporty crop top and statement kicks.
4. Jerseys: Jerseys made a comeback in 2023, football and rugby jerseys alike are to witness an enormous impact, especially with the upcoming UEFA Championship, estimated to take athletic fashion to greater heights.
5. Techwear: Functionality meets fashion in the rise of techwear. Think cargo pants with hidden pockets, transformable outerwear with detachable sleeves, and sneakers that double as performance footwear.
