NOPI Fashion
Paula Davis
Fashion is the prevailing taste of a group of people in society. An eclectic mix of themes and ideas constituted the look at a recent NOPI Race Wars Event.
The in look at the NOPI Race Wars Series were sporty-casual streetwear with a stand out pieces including the ever popular blue jean mini- micro shorts and bikini tops on a tanned body.
Color Trends
The styles worn by the boys and
girls echoed many of the Urban designs with a slant towards streetwear and
sportswear. Blue was NOPI’s most popular color for this weekend although the
occasional black and earth tone snuck in on several mini skirts that caught our
eyes. Guys also wore blue as their primary color. An ensemble we saw often
included blue jeans and a white or black shirt or T shirt. Many of the guys
simply wore no shirts showing off their bare torsos to the delight of many of
the girls at the event. In summary, although red and blue were big players in
this weekends fashion taste, flesh tones became dominant as the day wore on due
to the heat.
Fashion Inspiration
Most of this weekends
fashion inspirations were admittedly worn with the intent to attract the
opposite sex. Skin tight shorts and pierced belly buttons were the show’s main feature.
Women’s wear focused on very short shorts with one inch inseams. Menswear
included baggy pants mostly off the hips with the gangster look being heavily
represented. The men also wore bare tops or loose fitting shirts with tank
tops.
To look cool and make the chicks drool one guy told us. Frequently
taking their shirts off, the boys flexed their muscles with no purpose when
girls gathered closely. One young man scratched behind his ear with surgical
precision as he strategically tightened all the muscles in his arms while
several girls looked on.
Clothing range for NOPIs event is a capsule
collection of sweats, blue jeans, tanks, and shorts; sporty
casual clothing with a streetwear urban edge and the women were looking drop
dead sexy- rivaling California girls for the sheer glam of it all.
