What Is Grunge Fashion?
Grunge fashion is the clothing, accessories, and hairstyles of the grunge music genre and subculture. It has been gaining lots of popularity over the years since the 2000s. Grunge fashion is characterized by thrift-store clothing, often worn in a loose, and its edgy look. The style was popularized by music artists Kurt Cobain, Pearl Jam and Garbage.
How To Style Grunge Fashion
The Selection Of Colors Are Quite Dark
This might seem obvious but it is important to keep in mind when you pick out your outfits. The colors that are normally used are black, grey, brown and dark purple, green and red. However, you don’t just have to wear these colors but this is a good place to start. Black is normally used as a base color and then people build on top of that. If you are having a hard time choosing color scheme, you should consider starting with this.
The Outfits Can Be Very Simple but always with that touch that screens GRUNGE!
A lot of grunge outfits are really basic. They typically include a graphic tee and some jeans with chains and that could just be the look. That being said, there is quite a lot of variation and not every outfit will be that simple.
You Don’t Need A Huge Wardrobe
It can be very overwhelming when you start putting outfits together if you feel like you lack the correct clothing. Once you have some staple clothing you pretty much have all you need to have a large selection of outfits. Here are some essentials you should have in your wardrobe:
- Long sleeved striped and plain t-shirts

Don’t Forget To Oversize Sometimes
One thing I love about grunge aesthetic fashion, is how everything can be oversized if you want it too. Normally people would either wear an oversized hoodies or oversized trousers but you can wear both.
You Can Make It Complicated
Once you get the hang of it, you can make your as complicated and as dramatic as you want. This does require you to be quite creative but I think that just comes with time. The possibilities are endless and through this you can develop your own personal style more.

Accessories Can Really Help Your Outfit
This is very important when it comes to grunge outfits. Most outfits are very simple so adding a few simple accessories can take your outfit to the next level. These accessories include necklaces, chains, earrings, belts, bags, beanies and even what shoes you are wearing. Therefore, it’s always good to include accessories in your outfit.
