The Evolution of Streetwear: From the Streets to the Runways
Streetwear has come a long way, evolving from a niche style embraced by skateboarders and hip-hop artists to a global fashion movement seen on runways and high fashion shows. At OneSqr, we’re blending this dynamic world of streetwear with the rich cultural inspiration of Punjab, creating a unique and powerful fashion statement.
The Humble Beginnings of Streetwear
Streetwear started back in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It was all about the streets, influenced by the vibrant cultures of skateboarding, surfing, and hip-hop. Brands like Stüssy and Supreme began by creating simple, bold graphic tees and hoodies that spoke to the rebellious spirit of the youth. Streetwear wasn’t just about clothing; it was about making a statement, standing out, and being true to yourself.
Rising Popularity and Mainstream Appeal
By the 1990s and early 2000s, streetwear was no longer just for niche groups. It started gaining popularity, and collaborations between streetwear brands and high-fashion designers brought it into the mainstream. Celebrities and musicians, especially those from the hip-hop scene, embraced streetwear, making it even more popular. Suddenly, everyone wanted to wear what their favorite stars were wearing.
The Runway Revolution
In the 2010s, streetwear truly hit the big time. Luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Balenciaga began incorporating streetwear elements into their collections. Oversized hoodies, graphic tees, and sneakers started showing up on the runway, blurring the lines between streetwear and high fashion. Streetwear had officially arrived.
