HOW to build GRUNGE aesthetic wardrobe in 2024! Tips & Tricks

[@ethereal_03]

I would like to apologize for spreading misinformation about the grunge aesthetic and for the many inaccuracies regarding this style in my video. I will do my best to conduct more thorough research from now on. Once I have properly taken the time to understand this aesthetic, I will remake this video so that its content may be accurate and true. I thank you for the comments that have brought this to my attention in a respectful manner.

If you want to be a true Grunge, you’ll get your clothing primarily from thrift stores. The essence of non-conformity and rebellion.

[@ethereal_03]

You'd be right about that.

My parents won’t let me thrift for some reason 😢

It's not grunge if you're literally buying from shein like it said to do in the video

[@taekwannnn]

@@soha4686 no it’s like they think it’s dirty no matter what I tell them

[@nyla3387]

shein and romwe are an absolute NO for grunge aesthetic, rooted in overconsumerism and unethical practices. it doesn't matter how much money you have, buying consistently from these places is extremely wrong. i would suggest online second hand stores, in person thrift stores, saving money to buy a few really good quality pieces over a bunch of poorly made unethical garbage

[@Ash._.e_]

I mean grunge can be whatever the fuck you want it to be i guess, the fashion doesn't matter since its music based however the clothes are like a compliment to it. But if we're talking about grunge style, its primarily meant to be thrifted or just second-hand of some sort since it emerged from Seattle where it was just cold as fuck (which explains the layered or baggy clothing concept) and people were typically working class and dressed as such from what they could afford in thrifts, its also meant to be a big "fuck-you" to the glamorous materialistic 80s hair-metal look or whatever the hell the Bands or the movement were opposing at the time. I feel like the fashion in the video was pretty nice for a grunge wardrobe, however, it feels like a more MODERN version of what 90s grunge fashion, or what grunge fashion in general really is...but that's fine since fashion always changes and progresses!! But the part of the video where it was like "materials you CANT wear to be grunge'" and its lace, velvet, silk etc.....that's actually grunge as fuck, or its sorta in a sense....i mean they had the 'kinder whore' style which came from the Female musicians of grunge bands and they wore all that kinda stuff, from the lace, to the silk dresses, to the velvet, to the occasional glittery eye makeup. It may not directly be grunge but it HEAVILY OVERLAPS........I say you could totally wear the lace, the silk and even the glitter and it can be grunge as hell!!

Your right though, grunge aesthetic is so much more than what It's often represented as today-which is fine you can dress how you want. A lot of grunge icons were literally homeless junkies, breaking gender norms and criticizing the system. It's a little sad when people talk about all those things that grunge "can't" be

[@reneleanor9231]

Thank you for this! Your comment made me smile :)

[@imalrightbutthx]

I love that you not just showed the style but also named shops one can buy those clothes, though as mentioned thrift stores are the best place to buy grunge aesthetic. I love online platforms that sell second hand though, so knowing the brands that sell my preferred clothing is very helpful, thanks xx

[@ethereal_03]

Thank you for watching! You could also check out these online stores: Depop, ASOS, Thredup, ebay and etsy. They have a lot of vintage stuff there!

Yes girl kurt cobain loved shein

[@ethereal_03]

I understand, I posted a comment addressing the issues regarding this video. Once again I apologize for my poor research and many inaccuracies regarding this topic.

[@demonrelm2474]

I was confused by "avoid: mismatched aesthetics, overly distressed clothing and ill fitting clothing" these are all staples in the eclectic grunge style

[@ethereal_03]

Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate it and will work harder on our research.

[@yajurvi684]

thank you so much for this!! i've been trying to find my personal style because my clothes right now are pretty basic (which isn't a bad thing, it's just not what i'm going for) but i think grunge is the perfect aesthetic for me

[@ethereal_03]

I'm glad you're building the style you most enjoy! I'm cheering for you!

[@jvjkbbkdkovs]

lace can be grunge

[@ethereal_03]

Lace doesn’t really align with the edgy and distressed vibe of the grunge aesthetic. However, if you like to incorporate lace into your grunge outfits, I believe it is a great way to express your personal prefrences.

[@jvjkbbkdkovs]

@@ethereal_03 Lace, especially black lace can give off that edgy vibe and can be used to layer you can have distressed lace.

[@Stunspookie]

it can be from shein if your looking for a cheap grunge style. personally I shop their a lot as I’m a teen who currently doesn’t have much money but really wants to achieve the grunge style. If you want more expensive pieces you don’t have to follow shein

[@poem3ss]

@@Stunspookie idk where you are from but if you can thrift, do it! Or use vinted or any secondhand ahops really or even local markets (where i live those are the closest thing to a thrift store). Or maybe ask relarives for pieces like flannels since im sure dads/grandpas have some!!

hi i have question. im 12 years old and i want be grunge girl but teachers in my school dont like this makeupp , clothes itd. (sorry my english)

[@ethereal_03]

Hi! It’s awesome that you want to express yourself with the grunge style! If your school has rules about makeup or clothes, maybe you could start small, like using accessories, darker colors, or subtle makeup that still feels grunge but fits the rules. Your style is yours and you can always make it your own, even in little ways!

[@wikusia..bo..czemu..nieeee]

@ethereal_03 thank you !!!

[@Kaw4ii.gvtzzz]

0:45 can i be grunge without listening to the music? I really adore the style but i dont like the music..

[@ethereal_03]

Grunge music is definitely at the core of the grunge style, it’s what shaped the attitude, the look and the entire vibe of this aesthetic. But that doesn’t mean you have to be a hardcore listener to appreciate or embody the grunge aesthetic. You can still pull off this aesthetic without being a fan of the music. The music gave birth to the aesthetic, but the style is flexible. So to sum it all up, yes you can.

[@glitchedeyes]

I always wonder why the pants are so low (aka, baggy.)

[@Orchid_.official19]

Can someone pls give me a simple explanation of the grunge style / culture? or what type of style this is and how I can dress like this without giving in to overconsumption? I like this a bit but I’m a bit more tomboy?

[@georgiadailey182]

Wikipedia: "Grunge fashion is characterized by durable and timeless thrift-store clothing, often worn in a loose, androgynous manner to de-emphasize the silhouette." Layering was also key. Buying used clothing not only lessens overconsumption, it also the most genuine way to adopt the aesthetic, and "tomboy" works well with the androgynous aspect. I suppose the images shown here are a way of interpreting the style's modern day evolution and may be more what you're looking for, but they are not exactly representitive of the original movement, you can get an idea of that by looking up the bands mentioned (and, of course, the quintessitial grunge icon, Kurt Cobain). When it began it was simply starving artists buying what they could from second-hand and army surplus stores. The band tees they regularly wore were authentic statements of support for the music they enjoyed, otherwise, they didn't really give a damn what they were wearing.
