[DISCUSSION] "STREETWEAR"

Hey /r/streetwear,With Virgil Abloh just being appointed head designer of LV, which basically is the biggest step for The Culture in a while, I wonder how his interpretation of streetwear as an entire art movement would vibe with all that Louis Vuitton stands for; I wonder how his push for democratic design and his collaboration with IKEA (intended for the young generation in their first apartment or house) will compare with the work he does with LV (which was a staple of what "new money" looked like for the generation before us, meaning they're "old money" now). For that, we'll just have to wait for Virgil to leak his own designs via his Instagram story. I have a question for all of you though.What does this cultural shift that's going on right now mean to you? As an individual, a consumer, an aspiring artist/designer, a future (or current) cultural innovator, how do you define/interact with/rebel against streetwear in this moment? How does it impact you? How do you want to impact it?tl/dr: what does streetwear mean to you right now? via /r/streetwear https://ift.tt/2E2TXTn
