Majority of the fashion trends are the ones that make a lot of noise. The hype is followed by hysteria and right now luxury streetwear is all the rage. The renaissance of rock n roll has big brands like Balmain and Gucci lining up for the front seat. Check out denim jackets, graphic t-shirts, sculpted heels, must-have-the-logo fashion bags and lots more that are trending right now.

Balmain’s oversized distressed ‘lived in’ T-shirt is detailed with animal motifs, lightning bolts and the house’s name graphically emblazoned in red.

Prada’s studded shoulder bag has been crafted from calf hair and leather with burnished silver studs framing the structured silhouette.

Off White ‘For Walking’ printed patent-leather knee boots. Vetements had a similar collaboration with Manolo’s that was a super hit on and off the runway.

The latest trend inspired by Fear of God has made its way to streetwear brands. The slim-fit, black subtle-sheen double-jersey track pants are tailored with scarlet-red cotton side seams, and the elasticated ribbed-jersey waistband has an off-white stripe running through it.

Gucci’s studded leather biker jacket is punctuated with star, circular and pyramid studs, which even spell out the word ‘Future’ at the back. The quilted satin lining features Roman numeral embroidery and a cross-stitched tiger’s head.

AC/DC’s iconic tenth album cover Blow Up Your Video is printed on a tie-dyed cotton-jersey T-shirt for Fall 2017 as Gucci builds on the rock ‘n’ roll theme.

Attico’s crushed-velvet wrap mini dress has a rich texture and ties at the waist. It is one of those comfortable yet glitzy pieces you can wear at any given occasion.

The embroidered metallic-trimmed wool sweater was inspired by Coco Capitán’s words ‘what are we going to do with all this future?’ she scribbled in her notebook. “I answered my question with another question: what is all this future going to do with us?,” she explained.

Elevate your denim collection with the ‘Modern’ denim jacket by Gucci.
