Formal Streetwear is a term that was created for an alternate version of semiformal attire. It combines the foundation of streetwear with elements of formality to achieve an effortless look that takes the components of both.
Semiformal and business casual outfits would be thought of to be worn with things like chelsea boots and a button down with a sweater.
Formal streetwear breaks off that and would be worn with mostly loafers, mules or a sneaker that isn’t the main aspect of the outfit how it was a few years ago but it complements the outfit and makes it more cohesive.
Tyler the Creator and A$AP Nast are two people that can be credited for the popularity of this style of outfits. A brand that has recently went all in on the “Formal Streetwear” footwear is new balance with a collaboration with Junya Watanabe where they have changed the silhouette of the 1906 sneaker to make it look like a loafer.
In the Fall cropped tops and wide pants are here to stay. They both are styled perfectly separate but go amazingly together. They allow you to play with the proportions of your outfits. Using cropped tops allows you to practice the rule of thirds.
The rule of thirds is when you divide the top one third of your body with the bottom two thirds and this elongates the bottom half of your outfit, and this allows for your outfits to be ascetically pleasing to the eye and enhances your silhouette. With wide pants you can combo it with smaller tops that are more cropped and tighter fitting that gives you a playful but good-looking set of proportions.
In complete opposite you can put on a completely oversized shirt, and it would still give a cohesive look.
As the season shifts to fall fashion, it gives the perfect opportunity to experiment with new styles while keeping comfort as one of your main priorities. Formal Streetwear is a modern blend of street style and formality, allowing you to elevate your wardrobe with sophisticated yet casual pieces.
Keeping trends like cropped tops and wide pants going lets you play with proportions, offering both versatility and balance to your outfits. Whether you’re reworking items from previous seasons or investing in new statement pieces, this fall is all about blending practicality with personal flair to create a cohesive, stylish look.
