Pop-punk style is officially back Prepare your favorite band t-shirts and fishnets to rock 2021 fashion
In recent months, several 90s and 2000s trends are (again) making space in the fashion world, and this time we hear them coming to the sound of guitar riffs. In fact, July 2021 online searches show an exponential increase of interest in the key elements of pop-punk style, arrived to date as an underground subculture with an absolutely cool aura. According to the insights by Stylight, a trend forecasting platform, research has grown by +48% for fishnet stockings and tops, +25% for knee-tight combat boots, +14% for studded belts and +17% for tartan and checked garments such as pants, skirts and dresses. Even on the catwalks of Chanel Resort 2021-22, Celine Fall-Winter 2021 and Saint Laurent we see the choice of a dark aesthetic, halfway between a dark fantasy and pop inspired coolness. It’s time for us to react, and fashion shows it: pop-punk style is back, with its boldness, excesses and the desire to rock everything with energy.
The pop-punk aesthetic
Also this winter tartan and combat boots will not abandon the looks of fashionistas, which is why the race for the next garment with a pop-punk mood has already begun. Some brands to follow as a reference are Vivienne Westwood, Marc Jacobs and his new line Heavn, and Simone Rocha, between pure punk and gothic romanticism. The big names in fashion offer creepers and combat boots for all tastes, including Prada, MiuMiu, Balenciaga and Marni, while Alohas presents the new strictly vegan collection. Nodaleto's lacquered mary-jane are perfect for achieving a slightly grunge mood in every look, like Red Valentino's red tartan outerwear. Fishnet stockings and mesh tops as if it were raining: the models by Y Project and Marine Serre are the latest style to be layered or worn proudly to show how much punk is in you. Not only high fashion, also emerging and fast fashion brands such as Revolve, I.am.Gia, Urban Outfitters, Betsey Johnson, Ashley Williams, have adapted to the trend by giving a dark and ironic twist to their collections.
