100 IDEAS THAT CHANGED STREET STYLE
Freelance style writer Josh Sims has pulled together an illustrated look-by-look survey of the key trends and looks and ideas that have made and changed Street Style over the last 70 years in his latest book 100 Ideas That Changed Street Style.
Sub cultures, tribes and movements are examined from Rave culture, Glam, EMO and Retro to Two Tone and MODs. The expanse of styles, what influences them and how they are put together, alongside those key instigators, are all examined in bite-sized, easy to consume information.
“By exposing the influences, and influencers, of street style over the last 70 years, the book unravels a narrative of style through the ages, showing how fashion movements cropped up through all kinds of mediums, such as how cinema created a national style, the invention of jazz cool, and how politics and even drugs came to shape fashion.”
The perfect antidote to the world of fast-throwaway fashion; if you are looking to upscale your stylings then this book will give you plenty of inspiration. Available from Laurence King now at £19.95.
