Hip Hop Clothes
For several years since the 1990s, many young people made hip hop clothes their fashion statement. From elementary to college students, baggy pants, oversized shirts, baseball caps, and bling were the in things, especially since people often see these in music videos worn by both white and colored artists. This new fashion was really much to the dismay of parents who would rather see their children in more “socially acceptable” clothing.
Eventually, this kind of style evolved in other countries where new fashion statements arose, like skinny jeans and muscle shirts. The young people who were into hip hop clothing eventually finished college and had to find jobs. Therefore, they had to ditch their street clothes in order to look more corporate in job interviews.
However, that doesn’t mean that the hip hop style is gone. It endures among the people who started it in the first place. Moreover, their styles have evolved, too, considering that they now use different kinds of materials and accessories. Some signature labels even carry designer hip hop clothing.
It is just great that the sub-culture fashion of hip hop has stayed for many decades and has evolved to become a part of mainstream style. Now, it knows no color or race, because after all, comfortable street wear is just what everybody wants.

fashion trends come and go. i like the fact that many accessories and clothes of today were inspired from the past and continues to be upbeat.
sabi nga nila ang fashion paulit-ulit lang depende lang yan kung paano mo aausin o gagamit sa tamang occasion.
I have been into that fashion back when I was in high school.
These stuff never dies, IMO. 
I am not that in to hip hip clothing as well as the genre. Some people just go with the trend and some wear their personality. I’m for the latter.
I remember it clearly. Fashion revolves and a lot of what we see in the shops now are designs from the past. All they’ve done is modernised it to fit in with today’s culture. Thanks for this post.
I think that hiphop clothes are transforming to its new look, I can see it on Korean Fashions
Yes fashion styles even from the 50′s and 60′s have made their comebacks many times and hip hop fashion is no different from them, there are only some modifications though..
I’m open-minded when it comes to fashion, but I still haven’t developed an appreciation for the hip-hop clothing.. haha.. Maybe because I don’t really dig the genre.. ^^
Hip hop is the only fashion style I haven’t tried. I don’t like large baggy pants , over sized shirts and flashy accessories.
Hip hop clothes are still cool outfit. No matter what the season is, it will always be in!
natawa ako sa white and colored (?!!) anyway, hip hop isn’t my style too ehehe…manang? lols
I think hip hop is here to stay. Pop culture will find its way to influence hip hop fashion. hehe
It’s good to have variety in fashion or else it would be boring.
