2019
Collaboration pieces became the hottest items of 2019 - Nike x Ambush, Louis Vuitton x everything, Alexander Wang x Gentle Monster, Arizona x Adidas, IKEA x Off-White, High Snobiety x Stranger Things, etc. Celebrity merchandises are extremely popular: concert merchandises from stars like Ariana Grande, Kim Kardashian West and her Carolina Lemke collection, and, last but not least, Kanye West’s Jesus Is King and Sunday Service apparels. This year was the year I became a huge fan of Acne Studios, whose items are so minimalist and aesthetic. It also became the year of reflective fabrics. Every piece of apparel - hats, hoodies, jackets, you name it - has one in reflective fabric, I recently bought two reflective hats from Urban Outfitters. What I also found surprising great about reflective pieces is that they are waterproof, which is great for the New England weather.
