TRIBAL WAR

The late 2000’s committed some of the greatest fashion crimes. Something happened post-9/11, post-recession that made us lose our minds and get lost in a hodgepodge of high-low chevron skirts and studded boat neck crop tops. A fashion revival à la 2012 as I brace myself for what’s to come.

Tribal Galaxy

A.k.a navajo print, aztec print, or probably another equally culturally insensitive term. I can see it make a slight come back but only in the form of pants that do ungodly things to your ass.

Galaxy print is heavily associated with the “swag” subculture that peaked in 2012. Think OBEY hoodies, strained lip bites that look more IBS than sexy. While it’s unlikely the aesthetic’s hallmark quiffed teeny-boppers — will return completely, recent exploring might be just the thing to beckon today’s youth for a taste of this cosmic latte. What might galaxy print have in store for the 2020’s?
