CURRENT   Our very own editor, Viknesh Ramalingam has done a field observation on the current trends among teenagers & Let’s Find Out what is it! S Gone are the days when guys wore simply a t-shirt matched with jeans from Levi’s/ Denizen which was recognized as the ’better’ outfit for going on dates or chilling with friends. However times have change for the current generation of teenage guys as they pay more attention to their dressing and fashion. The latest trend among the guys are: TOPS — Plain long sleeve shirts or printed short sleeve shirts (Monochrome, Aztec, Boroque) Common Bands for these: Topman, H&M, Ben Sherman BOTTOMS — Nudie wins Levis & April 77 st ince this is the 21 century, teenage trends are ever-changing with new products coming to light. Therefore many teenagers misconceived that they are trend-setters or a fraction of the more trendy society. In actual fact, they may be late in catching up and even when they do, the trend may have died out. FEAR NOT as I update you with the most recent fashion and leisure trends! SHOES — New Balance shoes are the current “in thing” among the guys BAGS — At one time, Crumpler bags were trending, followed by Manhattan portage and NOW the current top bag is HERSCHEL. BOROQUE SHIRT (TOPMAN) Fashion sense of teenagers diversifies in present -day as brands are expanding and gaining popularity. However, through my observation, I conclude that majority are donning on identical tops and bottoms, carrying similar bags and uniformly putting on identical shoes. Personally I think the reason behind this is that teenagers embrace things that are presently “in” or “Fashionable”. Nevertheless, let us see what ongoing trends do guys and girls follow!
