Hoodies were once like sweatpants. They were staples in our wardrobes, but were normally reserved for lazy weekends watching Netflix. That has quickly changed in just a short time. Hoodies have been given a high-fashion makeover, thanks in large part to Vetements and its cult-favorite hoodies.
Street style stars are leaving leather jackets and printed coats in the closet and topping off their looks with casual hoodies instead. We’ve seen hoodies outfitted with everything from leather minis to cropped flares. All of the looks are fierce yet decidedly more comfortable than some organ-squishing styles. And who’s going to say no to a look that’s fierce and comfortable? It’s no wonder hoodies have made a comeback.
Click through the gallery to see the many street style-approved ways you can style your hoodie outfits.
