Love ripped denim, all-black looks, chunky accessories and a badass vibe? Seems like you’ve been bitten by the grunge bug. Tell Alexa to play Nirvana songs and let’s get into the grunge aesthetic ASAP. You don’t need much — dishevelled hair, a couldn't-care-less attitude and lots of leather and denim.
While this aesthetic has been around for decades, it just keeps getting better every time. So if you’re trying out a new vibe or attending a rock concert, this is the trend you need to hop onto.
Billie Eilish
If you want to know how to wear the grunge look well, the Bad Guy singer and everyone’s favourite pop star is here to give you some lessons. Oversized t-shirts (always black of course!) and lots, and we mean lots, of chunky jewellery are a must. Not to forget, the unkempt hairstyles that give off quite a devil-may-care vibe. If you want a masterclass on how to wear grunge, just scroll through Billie’s IG!
Miley Cyrus
This 2000s pop star went from being a Y2K icon to the most grunge person in the room! And we’re loving it! There’s no doubt that Miley can pull off an all-black look like a pro, but what adds to her grunge vibe are her tattoos and haircut. The short blonde mullet makes her look like a rock chick!
Gwen Stefani
Always seen in her blonde hair and red lips, Gwen can carry the grunge vibe like a pro. The fishnets in this outfit add the edginess that elevates the aesthetic, not to forget her leather bralette and chunky chains. One pro tip to be grunge: never forget the attitude.
Willow Smith
The Wait A Minute! singer looks like a #bosslady in this look. The all-black look with ruby accents is edgy and chic. The choker ups the grunge aesthetic, while the leather belt and jacket is on point.
Deepika Padukone
A white shirt, black lace corset and mom jeans — DP does it again! This grunge look, while maybe quite sober compared to the others, is a great way to get on the grunge wagon. Don’t forget to have messy bed hair and kohl lined eyes.
Megan Thee Stallion
The What’s New singer knows how to be grunge and how! This leather corset bodysuit is the epitome of the grunge aesthetic. The look is sharp, edgy and channels main character energy unlike any other. Don’t miss out on the ombre black-red lip.
