Streetwear is said to have originated from the rise of punk culture in the 70s, with bands like Joy Division and The Ramones dominating the music scene. Others think streetwear stems from the rise in popularity of hip-hop and the bloc party sub-culture – which gave rise to the name ‘streetwear.’

Although its origins are widely debated, Stüssy is one of the brands that made streetwear a real concept. The owner, Shawn Stüssy, implemented elements of the self-made culture that started with punk rock by adding his designs when making surfboards for his friends and locals in California. To promote his work, Stüssy then prints the designs onto t-shirts and shorts to sell along with surfboards. What started as a small side job exclusively for friends and family soon turned into one of the largest clothing lines in the world.

In Japan, the punk and hip-hop waves are shaping the fashion world in Tokyo. Brands like A Bathing Ape (BAPE) and NEIGHBORHOOD emerged from the alleyways of Ura-Harajuku and rocked the world of Tokyo street fashion. BAPE founder Nigo drew inspiration from early hip-hop groups, such as Run DMC, while Shinsuke Takizawa, founder of NEIGHBORHOOD, took the military jacket and punk and rock & roll culture as a starting point.

The collaboration between streetwear and luxury fashion blurs the boundaries of what a trend should be. This ignores the ancient rules of fashion, which then attracts consumers and a wider perspective on what streetwear is and how they can coexist. This is a testament to the streetwear community that they can also bring appeal, exclusivity, and luxury.…

Street style has very close origins with young people over the last few decades.

Unlike other fashion, especially designer-style fashion, which is usually called high fashion, street style includes a variety of unique styles and different characters.

Although the hip hop style has been known as one of the iconic styles in the fashion world, this style still represents the music culture as its origin.

The hip hop style street style was also started by African-American urban communities and then continued into the music industry, and is now a fashion style that is often used by many famous athletes.

Nowadays, well-known designers have even recognized street style and have begun to incorporate elements of street style into their collections.

This shows that the street style trend is able to give a new touch to the world of high fashion which is more synonymous with formal clothing.
