International Luxury Fashion Brands Incorporate Streetwear

[Los Angeles, 23/3/2018] – The 2018 Paris Fashion Week marks the beginning of a fashion trend that has been in a long time coming. Designers like Kanye West, who heads the fashion brand Yeezy, have for years taken advantage of the demand for streetwear, making exclusive pieces for the streetwear elite. The Fashion Week held in Paris this year showed the inclination of international fashion brands to extend their inclusivity in high fashion to streetwear.

International Acceptance

Streetwear, which encompasses everything from men’s hooded sweatshirt jacket to Daddy denim jeans, has existed and thrived in the midst of sports and hip-hop cultures. Streetwear has, however, not been considered high fashion in numerous countries. In Asia and the US, streetwear has been prevalent and accepted. This year’s Fashion Week marks the first time the style has gained admission in the world of international fashion.

High Fashion Hallmarks

High fashion designers have always been reluctant to put their fingers in any streetwear. Building a reputation requires careful selection of projects one works on in the fashion world. Following this year’s Fashion Week, we can expect that not only big names like West and Demna Gvasalia, who has worked on Vetements and Balenciaga, will be on the streetwear design scene. Virgil Abloh, the designer behind the streetwear label Off-White did a good job delivering quality, long-sleeve pieces to the Paris runway.If the turnout and hype surrounding the Paris Fashion Week is any indication, streetwear has pushed its way past the mainstream into the world of high fashion.

Streetwear does not only run to shoes and men’s hooded sweatshirt jacket. The appearance of the style in luxury runways proves that. If you are interested in looking trendy and stylish, now is the time to invest in some pieces. You never know when the prices will be too astronomical to manage.
