Trashion - Recent Vintage 90s grunge

New/old grunge combines with beautifully contrived designs creating exciting mixes of texture, colour, shape and destruction.   All with more than just a nod to our enduring need for high Brands, sport brands and their fashion identity.

Why not write stories and proclaim messages on our everyday clothing?  Wear thoughts on our sleeves and ripped up designer legs?   Tear and fray holes mended with recognisable brand fabric or imagery.

Classic garments fall victim to the grunge trend - 90's bomber jackets are reinvented in coloured denims complete with ripped authenticity. The belted trench in fake flocked fur.  One of the highest fashion exponent of this trend is the super Junya Watanabe, being the original creator behind the use of tartan and denim in new and exciting ways.

Sport meets street with Branding a feature.  Mix brands and fuse their identity and messages. Even combine brands to create a new identity and use for both.  Combine fabrics, shapes and sizes creating a revival of flea market fashion.

The written messages and icons carved into pigment add many dollars as well as fresh excitement to a classic denim garment.  Fleece, hoodies and mixed fabrics  characterise the street fashion revival that is regarded as recent vintage.

Gothic revival, meets classic Tartan = super exciting.  Combine also the dynamic of clean sport brands and what we get now is a new wave of high and recycled anti fashion the results have  "must have" quality.

Biker Blacks

Be they grunge or be they clean black, denims are serious.  Worn out states "I'm a tough guy, don't mess with me".  Clean combines with chrome to say the same in a more studied fashion way. They all demand you to "look at me".  Black leather, black denim chrome buckles, belts and bikes - the look endures today and when it is not fashion it is off duty with attitude.

Black leather and jeans is a look which endures today.   Born in the era of Marlon Brando, Elvis Presley, James Dean it's smoky, smouldering, sexy.

A clean paired down black black fashion look which retains overtones of a tough sexiness.  A "go to" look when blue jeans are just too worn out.  

Black denim shorts and dresses can also be lighthearted, not pretty but quirky and gamine.  More serious than a pretty floral dress for the occasion.
