REVOLUTION OF FASHION TODAY





  • The early 2010s, so far, have seen many recycled fashions from the 1950s, 1970s and 1980s as designers. In the United States, it is popular to wear designer brands like Gucci, Chanel, and Versace, neon colors.It’s nothing but introducing old styles in a new perceptional way.
  • New Look dresses and trench coats, Tube tops, western shirts, and layered shirts and tees, dresses and shirts worn with belts, Perfecto motorcycle jackets customized with studs, with matching elegant pants, sundresses, and short dresses worn over ankle or length leggings or jeans. European women wear sparkly dresses, baggy one-size-fits-all Empire line skirts, blouses and dresses, and lace.
  • From 2010 to 2012 many late 2000s fashions remained popular in Europe, the United States, East Asia, and Latin America. In Britain and Australia, flip-flops, Ballerina flats, cavalier boots, sandals are very popular footwear for women.
  • Other notable European, Australasian and Pan-American trends include wool hats, clutches, high top sneakers, Ray-Ban Wayfarer or aviator sunglasses, leg warmers, knee socks or leg warmers peeking out over flat knee high boots especially knee high riding boots with skirts or short dresses or over jeans or leggings, rain boots and Chucks. Smaller handbags replaced Birkin bags and the large designer It bags of the early-2000s.

  • In Mexico and the West Coast of the United States, young women prefer fresh fashion but with a modern twist, wearing leather jackets or long coats and miniskirts combined with 1980s inspired hairstyles like the hime cut with blonde highlights.

Leggings and Snuggies

  • Originally restricted to the gym, Tracksuits, sweatpants, yoga pants, denim print jeggings, and dark spandex leggings are often worn as street fashion by younger women. A general rule of thumb is that the shirt or tunic worn with the leggings should cover at the very least 80% of the wearer's derriere to avoid a tacky or trashy appearance.
  • From 2010-2011, a popular fad was the sleeved blanket: a sleeping bag combined with a dressing gown known as a "Snuggie" in America. Before it was superseded by the onesies and morph suits of the mid-2010s, the "Snuggie" was often purchased as a gag gift, or worn ironically by young British women as a type of anti-fashion.

      Return of anti-fashion

  • By spring 2013, 1990s inspired anti-fashion made a comeback in the UK and USA among women aged 18-30. Popular clothing include geometric prints,  metallic jackets, unusual fabrics like PVC, leather pants, ugly sweaters, and khaki superdry trenchcoats.
  • In the UK, from summer 2013 onwards, the skinny jeans of the mid-2000s began to be replaced with looser-fitting dungarees and the so-called mom jeans.

       

       Black and white clothing

  • Black and white clothing, popularized by Kate Moss and Cara Delvigne, became fashionable in the UK and China amongst celebrity circles as minimalist fashion replaced the elaborate, colorful styles popular from 2004 to 2012. These include white trenchcoats with black sleeves, biker jackets, houndstooth coats, and black Gothic-inspired tops with skulls or crosses embellished with rhinestones.
  • During the mid-2010s, it became popular to dress entirely in black while in attendance at formal events, with long, sometimes semi-transparent, gowns accessorized with 1930s-inspired elbow-length opera gloves and jewelery, typically with diamonds or other precious jewels (although costume jewelry is often worn as well).



  • In the United Kingdom, Australasia and the United States, women's cream blazers and tuxedo jackets often have contrasting black velvet or satin lapels. Many young women in Brazil, Germany and the United Kingdom, wear black and white converse all-stars, as well as many young men in Brazil.
  • In China and North Korea, black and white (or occasionally red) dresses became fashionable from spring 2013 onwards.
