The lines between workwear and off duty style have blurred, as documented by the personal style of our millennial rule breakers
There’s much chatter about millenials: about their hedonistic attitudes, Rastafarian lifestyles, and their unconventional career choices. A tribe that believes in YOLO and Carpe Diem, one that isn’t awaiting middle-age crises to take off on indefinite sabbaticals, the ones who are masters of their own titles, and have the knack of getting creative with it. They’re the visualisers, the artists and the wanderers.
It’s only natural that this generation doesn’t adhere to the predictable norms of office dressing. If anything, they revel in setting loose from the shackles of corporate dress codes. They choose to wear their identities on their sleeves, backs and front, creating an intricate amalgamation of their beliefs, vocation, and orientation. Fashion seems to be facing an overall casualisation, where dressing down is the new dressing up. It’s all about hitting that perfect grey area of looking stylish without trying too hard, whether you’re looping around grandma’s pearls over your basic T-shirt or throwing on a sharp blazer over some slinky negligee.
