What are the types of styles out there?

Question

I was just curious about the types of styles out there. Can you say the styles name, and then explain what it is about. Ex.- bohemian, hippie....ect

Answer 1

well, a comprehensive list would take pages and pages, plus there are a lot of people who insist on blending styles. but i'll list the most common ones that you will probably see.

1. designer chic _ normally found in larger cities or wealthy communities, this style sort of speaks for itself.

2. preppy _ collared shirts, knee socks, cardigans, argyle .. all the classics. preppies know how to rock all things proper and sophisticated. also love name brands, and i dont mean the mall ones.

3. semiprep _ your typical a&f, hollister, aeropostale wearing "popular" kid. the mass induction of this style is still fairly new, so people havent yet decided on a universal term for it. most will call it "preppy", but its not.

4. goth _ dark, dreary, and overly rebellious. typically on the creepy side. loves black, chains, and countertrends.

5. "emo" _ youll probably find the most posers in this category, though not all of them are. they are a kind of a blend between goth (the rebel style) and skater. also indulge in countertrends sometimes.

6. skater _ inspired by street/skate style, this look encompases skinny jeans, skater shoes, graphic and band tees, and hoodies. you might find lots of neon colors and a funky attitude.

7. bohemian _ modern boho is not the same as the type of dress you see in movies like RENT. it usually involves layers and lots of earth tones, like beige and brown. lately, this style has started to lean more towards the urban look.

8. urban/city chic _ trendy and sophisticated, but by no means pristine. a cleaner "grunge" is often incorporated, in the form of black leather jackets, bold bags, and conspicuous boots.

9. athletic/casual _ sports tees (or tees in general), comfortable shorts, plain jeans, and simple accessories, if any. people who dress in this style usually either [a] just dont care, or [b] embrace their ability to make the most casual outfit still look cute.

those are the basics; i will edit if i think of more :)

hope they help!!
