What to wear on those days when even your underwear seems too hot? Well, we’ve selected some hot summer day fits for you to get inspired. Off shoulder and one shoulder, bandeau, cut-out and cut-out, midriff baring, cropped top and mini are some key words for this trend. So that you can be chic and dressed summer proof at the same time.

If we have to name the ultimate streetwear item of this season it would have to be the blazer. It was all over the streets of New York, Milan and Paris. Boxy, oversized tweed blazers in particular. To give a scrunchyy look that formal twist. To top off an elegant look. Or to form the ultimate contrast with this summer’s feather/fur skirt. Rock it as a suit with matching pants and for those hot summer days with no pants at all! Might you need style advice on this Balenciaga inspired piece? Just click through our streetwear images.
Long, short, floral printed, sleeveless, stone washed, deep blue or bleached; the denim jacket comes in many shapes and sizes. And thus giving everyone the opportunity to rock this trend to the fullest. So will it be that oversized vintage Levi’s version? Or are you opting for last year’s Balenciaga jacket? And do you dare to go for some denim on denim? Or will it be the touch touch to your floral summer dress?
After midriffs, under boobs, color bones and buttocks the most sexy parts to show off this summer are your ankle and your heel. And so slingbacks and slippers are all the rage the upcoming months. In shiny pink satin or patent red, velvet, fur lined or Swarovski encrusted; looking sexy yet careless and cool was never this easy. Best combined with a statement skirt or a pair of ripped jeans. And the best part? In those kitten heels you’ll easily be able to strut around all day. Good shoes take you good places. There’s no denying that.
From hips to waists and back again; the focus changes every few seasons. For SS2018 waists are the focus point of the summer silhouette increasing sales of waist belts and bags. Clicking through our streetstyle images the Gucci bag is without a doubt the most worn, followed by Prada and Chloé. When it comes to waist belts and bands all the cool kids turn to Off White and Vetements. Give that boxy jacket a feminine touch by cinching that waist or create that enviable hourglass figure. What are you waiting for? No time to waist!
Sure, we’ve wrote on yellow, white and even rainbow shades being the colors of the season. But there’s one shade that has been ruling the streetstyle scene for years now. Pink is still popping up in mens and womenswear, shoes, bags, sunnies and accessories. Are you going head to toe in different pink hues or opting for that one statement piece? Which ever the case you’ll be sure to make heads turn and smiles appear. Girly, playful and not to miss. Think pink (for at least another season).
We wrote about it after it hit all the major catwalks (Balenciaga, Dries van Noten, Paul Smith, Louis Vuitton) and now the Hawaian shirt had reached the streets. It was the one item all men were sporting during the menswear shows, giving Paris a sort of tropical vibe. Exuberant or more timid; floral patterns and palmtree prints will take you from day to night. Pair ’em with shorts or a full on pink suit. Roll up those sleeves and don’t forget your sunnies. Let’s bring some exotic vibes to our urban jungle.
It’s not just the feminine silhouette that focuses on waists this summer. High waisted pants (and belts) are a thing for guys too. Black trousers and tucked in white tees or tanks paired with some old school white sneakers make up for the coolest fits. While a party unbuttoned (Hawaiian) shirts makes for a good match as well. Legs for days and a careless attitude, not everyone can pull this look off. But once you’ve figured it out; make the most of it before the trend passes (and it’s everyone is showing off their boxer shorts again).
What are they wearing during the international denim days? A bespoke Denham, that vintage Levi’s or their latest Diesel jeans? During the year we refresh our streetwear posts irregularly. We don’t judge, we’re not the fashion-police, we just enjoy fashion and your own personal style. Next stop: The Kingpins Show Hong Kong.
Our own fashiondictionary Kirking It is a verb, as in: you are kirking! It means to fall asleep while eating dinner with colleagues, while gently rolling ones upper body in a semicircle while wanting to go to sleep, eyes flipping inward uncontrollably. It happens because of jetlag and is age related. There is no cure yet.
