Indie Sleaze Revival
Remember 2014? Remember party photography, ironic eyewear, American Apparel, ripped fishnets, deep side parts and when club culture was still fun? So do we — and so do the fashion powers that be, apparently, because grimy hipster culture has made a comeback. Dubbed “indie sleaze” by trend researcher Mandy Lee, the style is defined by risqué cuts, grungy colours and a trashy-meets-trendy ethos.

GET THE LOOK: If the first iteration of this trend still feels like a recent memory, that’s because it is. Use the shortening trend cycle to your advantage by digging up any old American Apparel you might still have kicking around in the back of your closet. This trend is all about being messy, grungy, sexy and unkempt, so muss up your hair, smudge some black eyeliner on your face and squeeze into your disco pants.
