SS20 witnessed the rise of an ongoing nostalgia for another time: tropical fever, softer pastel hues, University gear, the return of sharp tailoring and functional utility. 90’s staples are rewriting the codes of the runway and merging the traditional and modern aesthetics we love into a new wave of style.
Redefining the uniform with industrial-logo jacquard backpacks and showers of color block staples. Thanks to the internet and technology influencing us all, school days are no longer about conformity and fitting in. Self-expression is on full-blast with neon-colored sneakerheads and bold mismatching prints, making ways into your everyday, mundane class schedule. Time to study the new look.
Gradient is all about smooth color transitions, and what better way to liberate yourself from 2019 than a smooth transition into a new decade? An array of pastels are making appearances in SS20’s lookbook for men. Guys, it’s 2020, which means colors are no longer gender-specific, so go for that pastel pink and seafoam green. Oh, and FYI, this season also features supporting acts from the 90s superstars: it’s all about paisley and tie-dyed garments.
Tropicana dreaming, our hearts gleaming, what’s better than wasting time spent daydreaming. We’re all about diving into the depths of exotic lands and animals with your sidekick and accessorizing in SS20’s basic bomber madness. This season, all eyes are on wilderness inspired prints and mazes of plants and water. Explore the look with our favorite pieces.
To survive the chaotic jungle of NYC’s 5th avenue, one must arrive equipped. With logo printed belt bags, technical jackets and reflective nylon track pants there is a high probability you’ll arrive home in one piece. Change gears and speed up into SS20 with a go-to street getup by 1017 ALYX 9SM characterized by high collars and nylon. Look to functional, practical and stylish pieces to get you through the day- no matter what obstacle is ahead.
In a world where streetwear seems to be king, it’s almost rebellious to be draped in sharp tailoring. SS20 proves that suits are here to stay. Stick out from the crowd and make your own path. Elegant, defiant, timeless, and modern- this season’s tailoring takes a twist with oversized silhouettes, looser proportions, and bold contrasting accents. It’s time to put that hoodie away and choose between a narrow and fitted suit or one that nonchalantly sways with your every moment. One thing is guaranteed- you’ll be the best dressed wherever you go.
