Some of these are a revival of 1990s hip-hop fashion, which also favoured bomber jackets and baseball caps. Contemporary streetwear is usually influenced by the generic sporty twists and sleek athletic lines. In earlier stages of sportswear fashion, femininity was usually expressed with the lines becoming cleaner, and silhouettes becoming minimal. Later, bold volumes in sportswear started to develop, [[High tech|hi-tech]] fabrics and old-school approaches were used in styling. In general, relaxed silhouettes, clean shapes, little embellishments, and an overall sophisticated feel would be observed in the looks of the trend. Contemporary streetwear has also become much more influential in the world of haute couture influencing and in turn being influenced by runway shows by prominent designers.

High-end and luxury brands began to develop "luxury sportswear", for example [[Alexander Wang (designer)|Alexander Wang]], Gucci, and [[DKNY]]. Among this type of "luxury sportswear", luxe fabrics were used to produce their sportswear fashion for a high contrast on the sporty silhouette. Fabrics like [[silk]] organza, washed [[satin]], [[leather]], [[neoprene]], and [[Crêpe (textile)|wool crepe]] were used to produce the "luxury sportswear". These types of fabrics may help experiment a garment with texture, and may assist in capturing a modern-sports spirit of the season. Details of the designs in "luxury sportswear" looks are pulled directly from actual active wear. The two words, "luxury" and "minimalism" were first used together for sportswear in fashion, to interpret a fresh sports look which is sleek and clean, but bearing recognizable athletic influences. Common mix-and-match combination of "luxury sportswear" on streetwear are track pants under [[basketball shorts]], with bold patterns and sumptuous fabrics for men; and light colored [[pencil skirt]]s, with bomber jackets and sleek tops, cut in satin or tweed, for women. === Seasonal sportswear === Sportswear in streetwear designs changes according to season and temperature. In winter, sports silhouette tends to turn slouchier and volumes are exaggerated.{{Citation needed|date=April 2020}} Solid fabrics such as [[fur]], [[velvet]], [[wool]] and leather become predominant, and quilted detailing on [[windbreaker]]s, sporty skirts and vests can be seen. A typical winter look might be a voluminous sweatshirt with satin [[boxer shorts]], or a brocade bomber jacket worn on top of a laid-back dress featuring mesh detailing.{{Citation needed|date=April 2020}} In summer, the look is usually light-weight and simple, with a combination of [[crop top]]s, sleek dresses, [[Gym shorts|gym-shorts]], and tank-tops.{{Citation needed|date=April 2020}} === Hypebeast culture === "Hypebeast" (occasionally "hype beast") culture is a colloquial term that at first was considered a [[derogatory term]] until Kevin Ma, the founder of the original Hypebeast fashion blog, re-appropriated it to be used as the name of his fashion blog, ''[[Hypebeast]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://qz.com/quartzy/1623507/streetwears-impact-on-fashion-goes-beyond-hoodies-and-t-shirts/|title=Streetwear is what happens to fashion when consumers start dictating the terms|last=Bain|first=Marc|website=Quartzy|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> Even after Ma's fashion blog expanded to a world-famous website, hypebeast still had some negative connotation.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://registerforum.org/3437/news/hypebeast-culture/|title=Hypebeast Culture|last=Weissburg|first=Josie|website=The Register Forum|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> Even though many hypebeasts will refer to themselves as such, taking it as a term of endearment (much like the evolution of the term [[otaku]] in Japanese popular culture circles) others still believe in the negative connotation.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|url=https://www.complex.com/style/2013/08/evolution-of-the-hypebeast/|title=The Evolution of the Hypebeast: An Illustrated Guide|website=Complex|language=en|access-date=2019-11-20}}</ref> With a growing trend of prominent brand names and logos on clothing, there has been a development of "hypebeast culture" connected to streetwear as of the mid-2000s.
