Over the past few years, streetwear has evolved from a DIY sensibility. Into a field loved by TikTok kids as well as the fashion elite. Accelerated by the launch of jackets and hoodies. There’s a tongue-in-cheek pattern from Vetements, at a super high price. The widespread adoption of casual wear over formal wear and the meteoric rise of streetwear artists like Virgil Abloh. Streetwear has grown from a subculture to a multi-billion dollar industry.

For consumers. That means while emerging and affordable men’s and women’s streetwear brands remain popular

Then the industry has given birth to a whole new category: Luxury streetwear. The defining details — beyond price — are in shape, fabric and accessories. Overcome the dependence on original streetwear. Enter baggy t-shirts, sweatshirts and graphic prints. In fact, some of today’s best women’s streetwear brands have more in common. With ready-to-wear styles from designer brands like Balenciaga. And on the other hand, brands like Burberry have recently been borrowing influence from streetwear. For their own runway collections.Here, we’ve rounded up 4 high-end women’s streetwear brands that every fashionista should know. From Ambush to Off-White, you can trust these designers.
