Residents of New York, both indigenous and visitors, adhere to the principle of relaxation and comfort in clothes. This is especially evident in New York, where residents dress without regard to norms and rules – mixing styles, combining the incompatible and not thinking about what others will think of them.
Of course, to us their style often seems eccentric, careless, strange, but the fact remains that the American street-style is a unique style in terms of embodiment, which you are unlikely to meet anywhere else.
We talked about the street style itself separately, and today we will see how streetstyle is understood by Americans.
Key features of the street style of New York:

Of course, we are not talking about the "top" - stars, politicians, top bloggers, but about ordinary people. Every day they rush to work, wait for public transport or stroll through the streets of the city.
Things should be comfortable, not constraining movements – most Americans and migrants who came after the American dream are sure of this. And what could be more comfortable than loose trousers and sneakers? That's right, nothing!

Sneakers are combined with klesh trousers, and the jacket makes the image almost official. We do not know what the dress code of American employers is, but most of us only dream of such a uniform.
@newyorkersinthecity
A frequent guest of American bows is oversize. In the summer, these are long loose shirts, and in the winter - down jackets and sweaters as if taken off a large man.

Of course, pants are not the only clothes of American women. Lovers of feminine images adore skirts of different lengths - denim or light flowing midi or extreme mini, each woman chooses to her taste.

Not many of us are used to the trend of layering – two shirts, two trench coats or windbreakers, although brands and fashion houses like Moncler and Versace are actively promoting this combination. The Americans are more decisive in this regard - they said layering, so we will layer it!
@newyorkersinthecity
Winter outfits are no less comfortable, and most importantly - warm. Rarely on the streets there are girls in kapron tights or mini-down jackets - almost everyone prefers down cocoons or oversize models.
@newyorkersinthecity
What is certainly striking about American clothing choice culture is the absence of prejudice. People dress the way they like, without thinking about the fact that the T-shirt fits the tummy or visually fills. Americans are free from stereotypes, which is certainly worthy of respect.

Along with unusual and slightly extravagant images, there are more restrained ones. Most often it is minimalism or casual, without bright details and an abundance of decorations.

Often there are girls and women in clothes from the mass market and a Louis Vuitton or Balmain bag.
@newyorkersinthecity
Overalls with a full-length pant are stylish and comfortable, and in cool weather it is also practical.

Ripped jeans and a scarf are a real classic of everyday clothes.
@newyorkersinthecity
In general, Americans are very fond of denim - this can be seen in the number of outfits with jeans or denim shirts. Jeans are almost always classic straight or clash - without drawings, embroideries and other designs.

Of course, there are in America – more often in New York, styles who dress according to the latest trends and spend a lot of time combining things. This is manifested during the period of high-profile events, for example, Fashion Week in New York, when the city is filled with paparazzi, and there is an opportunity to get into the photographer's social networks or even into a selection of images in a fashion magazine.

But what is surprising is that even wanting to create a sophisticated bow, most continue to adhere to the principle of comfort.

Men support all the principles chosen by women in clothing and clearly follow them - only freedom and comfort, of course, with a touch of self-expression.
