The 12 Hottest Street Style Trends Weve Seen On Day 1 Of Lakme Fashion Week 2019

When it comes to street style or fast fashion, the Lakme Fashion Week gives us some of the best examples of what we men can achieve sartorially, if we really get creative. What we saw on day one of the week-long event, can set some pretty awesome wardrobe goals.

Although some of the trends are not entirely new per se, they still managed to captivate us by their sheer brilliance, thanks to both their functionality as well as aesthete.

Accessorise

No matter what you’re wearing, adding an accessory here and there will go a long way to uplift any ensemble, be it just a simple pair of shades, or a boho chic pendant on a leather strap.

Fanny Packs Reimagined

Like last year, and the year before that, fanny packs around the neck and shoulders are still huge. So get yourself some pieces that go well with most of your wardrobe. On a side note, we just love how the jacket, with its oversized utility pockets look chic.

Neon’s Still Dope

Rocking neon colours can be a little tricky. But nevertheless, it’s still dope, and should definitely be a part of your wardrobe. Just don’t pair it with some other thing that’s neon, and you’ll be good to go.

Colour Block + Layering

We men often get confused as to how to colour block and layer our outfits, without much effort. Well, this here is the perfect example how it should be done.

Colour Embroidery On Leather Is LIT

If you are into leather, embrace it and take things up a notch. Coloured embroidery on a leather jacket is a very Bodo look, which although is a bit 2017, still works really well.

Grunge Prints Never Went Out Of Fashion

You can’t go wrong with a print that’s inspired by death metal or grunge unless you’re wearing Ed Hardy. Just make sure you layer it tastefully while keeping the colours in mind.

Quirky Prints Are All The Rage

Even though they may seem little risky, quirky prints are all the rage, and they will be for quite some time. Notice how one of the legs of the denim jeans has a few characters and words whereas the other one has an aboriginal face on it.

Playing Around With Sizes Can Be Cool

You’ve often read us saying that you ought to buy the right sizes, the right fit etc. Well with street fashion, there are no rules, so experiment with your fit and size. Freely, might we add. Just make sure you are comfortable with what you are carrying and that it doesn’t become too much of an inconvenience.

Bagsy Notes

From fanny packs slung over the shoulder, we are slowly moving towards bags that will be worn on the front. Go Figure!

Off-beat Contrasts Can Be Sassy

Shop The Story

When we think of contrasts, we tend to play things safe. But do we need to? Hell, no! A Neon-ish orange cargo pants with a black hooded shirt is LIT AF.

Pockets Go Beyond Utility

Who said functionality and aesthetes don’t gel well together? Look at these pockets. First, we had oversized pockets, which were really a big hit, both because of their function, as well as their aesthetic appeal. Now, we have an increase in numbers.

Pastels Are Here to Stay.

Even though most people were late to the party that pastel shades are (some still haven’t turned up, by the way), they’re here to stay for a long, long time. And increasingly, they are making their mark more evident and conspicuous on street fashion.
