Pop Punk Has Made Its Way Back Into the Fashion Scene—Here's Why

We all know for a fact that pop-punk is most certainly not a new genre. Even if it wasn't exactly your music taste, you probably have the memory of some Paramore, Green Day, or Avril Lavigne lyric in the back of your head. It's the cycle of the industry for things to come back around again, except this time it's artists like Willow Smith and Olivia Rodrigo that are singing the tunes fueling your adult, not teenage angst. Similar to the '2000s (and the '80s punk period before that) fashion has always been heavily influenced by the music industry.

It may be 2021, but many of the current trends are eerily similar to that of Mary-Kate Olsen's style in New York Minute (Hello, Simple Plan video shoot, remember?) and Lindsay Lohan in Freaky Friday. It makes sense since the punk-esque characters in both films were heavily involved with chasing musical dreams. While one side of fashion may be pulling Y2K inspiration from Regina George, I know where the other side is drawn to.

With couples like Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian or Machine Gun Kelly and Megan Fox, there's one thing that's clear—pop-punk has merged itself once again onto red carpets, street style, and even high-fashion. While designers like Vivienne Westwood are considered legends with the aesthetic at the core of the brand identity, many brands are trying to follow suit. Chanel even joined in (yes, you read that right) sent a variety of grunge looks down its Cruise 2022 runway, taking a far step from the usual tweed and posh glamour. Below, we show how celebrities, designers, and influencers are taking pop-punk style into the new decade.

When it comes to this aesthetic, silver jewelry is the way to go.

It says it all right on the shirt.
Don't play it safe—layer those necklaces heavy.
Your new going-out pants.
We obviously had to include a plaid skirt.
Layer a leather jacket and pair with combat boots and you've got yourself a look.
For all your chunky boots.
If you're going to get a pair of platform boots, Dr. Martens are classic.
I can't decide which colorway is cooler.
Our editor Anna calls these tops "spicy basics."
It's like the collages you used to make in middle school.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
