During the final leg of the Men’s Spring 2018 fashion season, style inspired by the current pop culture climate continued to be the ongoing trend. Personally, I saw the collections reinforcing the idea of utility clothing. Fashion Godfather Raf Simons, for example, re-introduced layering, mixing and matching oversize coats and trenches with jerseys to allow streetwear to transition into everyday wear.
Death to Tennis used their collection presentation as way to incorporate the current phenomenon of how obsessed we are with social media. Models posed in mirrors, checking themselves out, while other models stood on pedestals taking selfies and sharing texts with fellow models. The unconventional socialization tied perfectly with the unconventional looks of the collection.
One of the highlights of NYFW was Steve Aoki's very political fashion presentation and performance. If you don’t know, Steve Aoki is a major deal in the music industry. From his collaborations with artists like Migos to his lit residency in Las Vegas, everyone that is somebody wants to work with this guy. Using his music and fashion platforms to promote awareness was a no-brainer for this artist, so he shut down a street in downtown NYC to do just that.
Aoki ventured into the fashion world with his own clothing line entitled Dim Mak Collection (DMC). Steve’s DMC collection “is for rebels, rock stars, and risk-takers.” Essential pieces of clothing are reinvented in a way not only to inspire others to take risk when it comes to personal style but also share a message with each piece.
On Tuesday night, the iconic DJ hosted a runway show/concert and shut down a whole entire New York City block. The fashion concert, as I would call it, included a marching band and celeb guest performers like Ma$e.
