Women’s streetwear is so hot on our radar right now with celebs, influencers and fashion runways flooded with baggy silhouettes, utility details and graphic prints. The latest? Our favourite streetwear trend has been given the Y2K touch and we’re obsessed! It’s time to dust off your Ed Hardy tank and parachute pants - the noughties are back, baby.

What Is Streetwear?

Although this trend has its roots in skate and hip-hop culture, it has now hit mainstream. Street fashion is characterised by oversized t-shirts, baggy jeans and sneakers and is often adorned with graphic prints and logos.

The best part about this trend? It's so easy to throw together a killer outfit. We will show you how to put together the ultimate street look and embrace your inner baddie on the regular with these five staple pieces.

Cargo Pants

It's no wonder baggy cargo pants have re-emerged from the depths of our closets this season - they're versatile, comfy and effortlessly cool. Characterised by a baggy fit and large utility pockets, they're all about practicality and functionality. Black cargo pants are an easy styling option, but other colours like white, beige and the classic khaki are also in.

How to style: While It-girls certainly wear them with sneakers, pairing low-rise cargos with stilettos and crop tops seems to be an equally popular outfit formula.

Parachute Pants

MC Hammer called... He wants his pants back! Originally made popular in the late 80s, these pants have reemerged, with celebs like Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid incorporating pairs into their off-duty looks. They usually feature a nylon material, drawstring waist and baggy shape. While black parachute pants are versatile, bright colours like pink, white and blue are having their moment.

How to style: Style this silhouette for a night out by swapping your graphic tee for a sultry corset top.

Abstract Mesh Tops

Dare to go sheer? This mesh trend is dominating the wardrobes of women everywhere! Light and breezy, it's perfect for the spring-summer season. The newest addition? Abstract prints! Bolder prints, brighter colours and asymmetric hems have been added to this cool girl's staple.

How to style: Pop a mesh top on over a bralette and add a mini skirt and knee-length boots!

Utility Skirts

Again with the cargo... I told you we were obsessed. Perfect for summer, the mini cargo or utility skirt is a must-have staple in your streetwear wardrobe. While high-waisted designs are still popular, we are seeing mid-rise and low-rise skirts steal the show.

How to style: From utility pockets to belted designs, these functional minis look so trendy paired with a corset top and heels!

Corset Tops

It's the wardrobe staple that has you feeling (and looking) good as hell - corset tops! Popular in the early noughties, this iconic piece was made famous by celebs like Keira Knightley and Britney Spears, who wore them with low-rise jeans. This trend today is surprisingly versatile. It has a sleekness and femininity that suits classic night-out looks, while at the same time, it has an edginess that juxtaposes nicely with baggier silhouettes.

How to style: Dress this feminine piece down with cargo pants and sneakers for a casual daytime look.
