Here's how you can 'Gen Z-fy' your wardrobe
We all use fashion to communicate, and every few years, our messages shift. For this reason, as trends change, each generation leaves its unique fashion imprint on the globe. The current generation, or Gen Z, is weaving a bold and colorful thread into the larger fabric of fashion that draws our attention. Know some of these trends if you wish to replicate the vibe.
Oversized blazers
Gone are the days when you wear body-fitting blazers. Presently, the tailored sports jackets have been replaced by the trend of wearing big, boxy blazers that resemble menswear. This shift is probably the result of Gen Z's campaign for body acceptance, which is crushing the desire for model-esque perfection. Gen Zs believe in wearing more inclusive clothing that is equally comfortable.
Long socks
Remember the time we all rolled down the socks to show more legs? Well, the trend has changed to long and sheer socks. Gen Zs have often been spotted with knee-high socks. These are particularly versatile in sheer black or nude and can be available in different patterns. Best to pair it with neutral-colored dresses or mini skirts.
Graphic attires
One of the main trends in Gen Z fashion culture is streetwear. Graphic tees that make complete sense and none at all are popular among Gen Z. Inspired by urban aesthetics, skateboarding, and hip-hop, streetwear blends style with comfort. This trend's mainstays include sneakers, baggy pants, hoodies, and graphic t-shirts. Streetwear lovers in Gen Z are often drawn to premium brands.
Altheliusure
Gen Zs are embracing functional cozy wear, epitomized by the athleisure trend. This movement, characterized by sneakers, oversized sweatshirts, leggings, and sports bras, originated from Gen Z's busy lifestyle, blurring the lines between sportswear and everyday attire. Athleisure seamlessly blends fashion and comfort, enabling a transition from gym to casual events effortlessly. It merges trendy elements with comfortable sportswear, offering versatility for various occasions.
