Topman channels Kurt Cobain, David Grohl and Eddie Vedder
MANILA, Philippines - This season is going to be all about cool street-to-sports style, trailer grunge and a rich anthology of “festivulture†as Topman unveils its collection for spring and summer.
It is for fashionable urban men who often wander around bohemian and sophisticated circles. Fabrics are mixed hinting on tried and tested performance and active wear with style. Seen are techniques involving cut-and-sew, color blocking combined with neons and brights, built on a base of scientific greys. This season’s take on sportswear is something more casual and enjoyable.
Topman goes deconstructed, with raw and reversed sewn edges worn in multiple layers, setting off the anti-fit styling with a more neutral grey hue.
Key items this season are trainers and sportswear in vivid brilliant neons, balanced off with black silhouettes, all found in Topman’s techno-monochrome trend.
Taking inspiration from the 90s grunge, Topman revels in vintage denim heritage, thrift store palette that depicts folk art and hand-me-down lumberjack shades. It tells a tough, uber masculine story that revolves around gold glam and Midwest Seattle trailer trash that looks up to the tried and tested fashion sense of icons Kurt Cobain, David Grohl and Eddie Vedder.
Bumming in the beach this summer? Take pleasure from skilled skateboarders, listen to Nirvana and Swim Deep while bathed in style with Topman’s beach grunge trend. The defiant non-conformist story is casual all throughout interspersed with cherry reds and denim blues.
The trippy graphics and artificial colors show off an evident internet generation showcased in the hyper culture trend. It nods to the style of modern-day techno-cowboys with references to late 90s and the millennium. To make their own acid story, sportswear bathes in eye-opening colors and hypnotic prints are key.
Topman stores are located at Robinsons Galleria, Robinsons Magnolia, Robinsons Place Manila, Shangri-la Plaza East Wing, Power Plant Mall, Greenbelt 3, Alabang Town Center, Trinoma, The Podium, SM Aura Premier, SM Mall of Asia, Ayala Center Cebu and soon to open at Mega Fashion Hall.
