Women’s Streetwear Continues to Evolve
Mar 26, 2008 Author: admin | Filed under: ArticlesHellzBellz, considered by many to be one of the premier designers of women’s streetwear, continues to push the envelope with their edgy designs. Lanie, the driving creative force behind the label, recently debuted her newest line and it is certainly getting a lot of attention. Determined to give women more options than frilly ready to wear, Lanie has created designs that resonate with women everywhere that want their clothing to make a statement about who they are. Lanie commented, “I live my life knowing that I’m a strong woman and I have the ability to create my own destiny.”
Stores such as FilthyDripped.com can attest to the rising popularity of streetwear in general, and not only for the male market. Lanie’s newest collection is sure to create quite a stir in streetwear culture and the designs are truly unique. She commented, “When designing a collection, I basically make what I want to see in my closet. This didn’t fall short for my Holiday ‘07 collection, which is set to deliver mid-October to early November. I’ve always had an interest in the early 60’s mod/punk scene in London so I developed a collection with a mod influence but gave it a military twist through the cuts, details and graphics. The military-mod theme isn’t completely literal but its influence is apparent.”
Long ignored by traditional fashion, women who are interested in streetwear often have to settle for wearing men’s trends. HellzBellz has been working to change this since 2005 and the reception has been tremendous. She has been traveling to shows on both costs and her work is certainly in demand, proving that streetwear is still on top, no matter what sex you are. According to Lanie, the type of woman interested in streetwear is, “A forward, non-conforming woman who lives life to the fullest and understands first and foremost that individuality is key. She’s also a strong female who isn’t afraid to speak her mind or express herself freely.”

SOLD OUT!
Wildchild Nation, one of the most popular designers of streetwear recently announced that they were chosen to provide costuming for the latest production of Step Up 2: The Streets, a film in the works from Touchstone. Their Love Understands All Music Line came to the attention of the costume designer there who commented, “street cool, fashion colors and striking styles converge in ‘Love Understands All Music,’ a vibrant, fresh and hip collection.”
Streetwear has maintained its popularity since it got its start in the 1980’s and can be found in special boutiques throughout the country. FilthyDripped.com is one of the most popular stores in California, offering numerous lines from designers and all of the latest trends. The streetwear market has managed to avoid falling into the same trap as traditional designers in the current economy, a fact that is attributed to its edgy design and appeal.
The new collaboration with Wildchild and Touchstone illustrates that streetwear is at the forefront of what is on the minds of the nation. Many of the designs are inspired by music and Wildchild is the perfect illustration of what happens when clothing and music come together. Business partner and co-founder of Wildchild Traci Copeland agrees stating, “Everyone loves music. It sets the tone for much of what we do, and our designs are a reflection of that. Music can be colorful, vibrant, and thought-provoking. This movie is a great platform to showcase that.”
You can see Wildchild Nation’s designs in Step Up 2: The Street, which will be directed by John Chu. As the company’s release pointed out, “Step Up 2: The Streets” proves to be a high impact ride down hip hop street dance culture and fashion.”
