Akademiks’ changes it up for summer 2009
Akademiks summer 2009 lookbook
With Akademiks women’s summer 2009 collection, the brand introduces looks inspired by Japanese streetwear in colorful denim, edgy bleach splattered jeans, bold graffiti tees and more.
Akademiks has been one of the prominent urban brands for 10 years now, usually not shy of plastering their logo all over collections. Now, artists like Santigold and MIA are rocking the line as we see the brand’s fits, details and denim quality evolving.
Do you find these updated looks to be a refreshing change, or should Akademiks have stuck with their traditional urban style?
Check out some of these new styles on DrJays.com, and watch out for more coming soon:
5 Pocket All Over Print Pant by Akademiks
Dragonfly Ruffle Dress by Akademiks
Is it me or does that model look similar to Kimora LEE?
I think this is a much needed change — a wake up call to the world of streetwear. Akademiks is one of the leaders in the industry, and it’s safe to assume they’ve got a lot of influence over other brands.
With that said, I hope others jump on the subtle detail > flamboyance bandwagon (while still remaining original).
It’ll be phat if the same idea carries over to Akademiks’ menswear line ^_^.
I love akademiks… I absoultely love the new updated looks that they will be bringing soon. I’ve already shoped fromt the summer 09 collection and anxiously awaiting the rest of it.
Keep up the good work and continue with the new look trends..
