Street wear

Street wear is a distinctive style of fashion not to be confused with hip hop fashion.

Devon Griffith, Head of Design at Massive Revolution explains, “Street wear is youth – it’s a retro 80s look inspired by the sneaker culture and hipsters on New York’s Lower East Side.” But, don’t confuse street wear with Urban fashion – looking like the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is miles away from the dark denim, baggy clothing and white sneakers that defined the inner-city’s Urban look. “American Apparel, H&M, Uniqlo – the whole [design concept] is based on street wear,” [http://www.debonairmag.com/the_definition_of_street_wear.htm The Definition of Street Wear]
