The early 2010s (2010-present) have thus far been defined by the hipster subculture, a mix of military influenced fashions, early 1990s neon colors, and a large-scale revival of 1930s, 1950s and 1980s fashions.

Combat boots were very popular for women to wear recently. Many women bought them with studs or spikes on them.

Colors such as teal, cobalt blue, pink and neon yellow have been popular for t-shirts and jackets, along with skinny jeans. Western fashion trends have been inspired by World War II and Cold War military uniforms, with trenchcoats, dress uniforms, combat boots and epaulettes on casual button-down shirts and jackets.[1] Madras shirts with tartan prints and bright colored casual clothing[2] are popular for both men and women in the West. While Western shirts remain fashionable,[3] especially in the UK and southern US, they are generally made in more subdued colors than those of the mid-2000s:[4] browns, greys, blues, and distressed stonewash denim[5] with conventional buttons[6] rather than the popular press studs as designers moved towards a more authentic Old West[7] or American pioneer look. Vintage clothing remained popular, although it was becoming increasingly common to cut unused stock of older fabric to modern patterns[8] or remake older garments into reconstructed clothing, for example, by sewing white cotton tape around the lapels of a navy blue 1990s blazer, or go to extremes and make a shirt from deliberately mismatched scraps of fabric.[9]

Women's clothing

The early 2010s, so far, have seen many recycled fashions from the 1950s,[10] 1970s and 1980s such as acid wash skinny jeans,[11] bell-bottoms, tunics, baseball jackets,[12] denim print leggings, oversized cardigans, 1940s New Look dresses and trenchcoats, leg warmers, Ray-Ban Wayfarer or aviator sunglasses, Tube tops, western shirts, Perfecto motorcycle jackets customized with studs,[13] job skirts, floral camisoles worn with matching hot pants, sundresses, pencil skirts, jean skirts, and small handbags rather than the large designer It bags of the early-2000s.[14] Other notable European, Australasian and American trends include alpaca wool Peruvian hats,[15] geek chic inspired nerd glasses, lace, figure-hugging white organza maxi dresses inspired by Pippa Middleton,[16] knee high boots, stilettos, dark leggings, clutches, sparkly dresses, high top sneakers,[17] and baggy one-size-fits-all Empire line skirts, blouses and dresses. In America it is also very popular to wear designer brands like Gucci, Abercrombie & Fitch, Baby Phat, Dooney & Bourke, neon colors such as pink, green, teal, black, purple, and yellow.[18] In Britain and Australia Uggs,[19] flip-flops, Ballerina flats, cavalier boots,[20] Doc Martens, and gladiator sandals are very popular footwear for women. An increasingly popular type of nightwear is the sleeved blanket: a sleeping bag combined with a dressing gown known as a "Snuggie" in America.[21]

Mens clothing

In the early 2010s, many styles from the late 2000s remain fashionable in both Europe and America, including Ed Hardy T shirts,[22] Polo Ralph Lauren, J Crew,[23] shawl collar cardigans,[24] V-neck t-shirts, Cargo pants, shemaghs, skinny jeans, aviator sunglasses,[25] wayfarer sunglasses, Tartan flannel shirts, converse all-stars, acid wash denim work shirts,[26] cable knit pullovers,[27] Nike Air Jordans, Vans and retro sneakers, flat caps, newsboy caps, black leather jackets, and slim fit grey mohair and houndstooth office suits with narrow lapels inspired by the American TV show Mad Men and the 1960s revival of the mid-2000s.[28] New fashions include Bermuda shorts, pork pie hats, trilbys,[29] turtle neck sweaters, denim jackets,[30] Aloha shirts, car coats,[31] 1930s style linen sportcoats, tortoise shell glasses,[32] snake skin[33] or plaited leather belts,[34] tapered jeans, tartan coats, espadrilles,[35] straw hats, skechers, Timberland work boots,[36] orange anoraks, 1980s style sheepskin coats, padded flannel shirts, khaki chinos[37] throwback Scandinavian anoraks based on those worn by Edmund Hilary's Mount Everest Expedition,[38] knitted pullovers,[39] 1930s style shirts with rounded collars, paisley scarfs, tweed topcoats,[40] double-breasted raincoats,[41] single-breasted suits with peaked lapels inspired by the TV show Boardwalk Empire,[42] and Belstaff safari jackets.[43][44]

In Britain, there has been a resurgence of Edwardian fashions[45] among indie kids, sloane rangers, and college students, including suits with contrasting piping,[46] boots based on US Civil War era Jeff Davis boots,[47] Barbour jackets,[48] bowler hats,[49] Homburg hats, seersucker or tweed sportcoats, waistcoats, thin ties, Ascots, dress boots, cricket-style sleeveless sweaters (also very popular in India), velvet jackets, and striped boating blazers, albeit in less loud colors than the type worn by the mod subculture in the 1960s.[50][51][52] This retro style semi-formal wear is often paired with modern casual clothing and accessories like Topman or Superdry T shirts, Jack Wills sweatpants, sneakers, scarfs, record bags, Doc Martens and jeans.[53]

Youth fashion

In the early 2010s, many scene kids abandoned the cartoon print hoodies, skinny jeans and studded belts in favor of a more hardcore/skate punk look with wifebeaters, plain hoodies, combat boots, Vans, tapered jeans, and stretched earlobe piercings.[54] Hip-hop fans wear tactical pants, Nike Air Jordans, Ralph Lauren Polo Boots, Hollister T shirts, and goggle jackets.[55][56] Rocker and skater kids usually wear converse all-star shoes, vintage tees,[57] plain tees with contrasting edging, checked shirts, denim jeans, hoodies, and Vans.[58] In Mexico many members of the cholo and lowrider subcultures combine hip-hop fashion with Western shirts, traditional charro jackets, Stetsons, skinny jeans,[59] and Cowboy boots[60] with elongated toes: an extreme version of the 1960s-inspired pointy boots popular in mid-2000s Britain. An American and Japanese take on the Neo-Edwardian fashion popular in Britain draws heavily upon the steampunk genre, including goggles,[61] respirators, brass gears, pocket watches, leather, silver or brass jewelery, and darker colors like brown, grey and black.[62][63] In England vintage clothing, especially checked shirts and homemade jewelery, remain popular among girls and boys alike.[64][65] In America, preppies have moved away from the hip-hop influenced fashions of the early 2000s and begun to dress in a more classic 1940s Ivy League style,[66] with sweaters, boat shoes, Aran sweaters, cardigans, Oxford shirts, wingtips, stripy polo shirts, hats like the fedora, and khaki or pastel colored Vineyard Vines slacks.[67]

Hair and makeup of the 2010s

Womens Hairstyles

In America, younger women favour volumized curly hair,[68] feathered hair, and the Rachel haircut that trended in the early-mid 1990s. European women favor the ponytail, French braid, messy bun, and hime cut.[69] The pixie cut and bob cut are popular in Japan. [citation needed] Elsewhere the long, straight or wavy side-banged hair of the late-2000s remains popular, often kept in place with a cloth headband or plastic Alice band.

Mens Hairstyles

For men, short hair remains the norm, although it is becoming increasingly popular in the early 2010s to grow it out "short with texture," with blunt ends inspired by contemporary pop groups and the young James Dean.[70] 1940s and 1950s haircuts have undergone a revival, with many British professionals wearing side partings,[71] quiffs[72] or slicked back hair.[73][74] For African-American men, cornrows, variants of the Afro, 360 Waves and jheri curl are coming back. In America goatees[75] and short haircuts like the buzzcut remain popular.[76]

Youth hairstyles

Many teenagers, especially indie teens and preppies, continue to wear the mid-length surfer hair and wings haircuts in the early 2010s, while British chavs and Canadian ravers wear a type of short mullet or fauxhawk with a single blonde stripe down the center and patterns known as train tracks shaved into the sides. Undercuts, pompadours,[77] wide unstyled mohawks, beards, side-banged hair and long 1970s hairstyles are popular among older hipsters. An increasing number of scene kids began to cut their hair short for a hardcore punk look, a move away from the androgynous big hair popular in the late-2000s.[78]

Body modifications

Tattoos and body piercings, popularised in the 1990s, are ubiquitous in early 2010s Europe, Australia, Canada, New Zealand and America, becoming a rite of passage and a permanent change in fashion itself.[79][80] Some of the more extreme include flesh tunnels, snakebites, nose piercings, and Monroe piercings.[79] Tattoos and piercings are worn not only by teenagers and young adults, but also by many businesspeople ages 26-40.[81]
