Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Robin Givhan explains, “Grunge was comfortably imperfect. These iconic 90s trends are here to save Spring 2021 from being just another pastel and floral-print season.With outfits chosen mostly by our moms, let's just say we were Overalls were an easy, low-maintenance look. While during the 90s, many new trends appeared, hip hop fashion stands out as one of the most significant. From the beginning of the ‘90s well into the late 2000s, hip-hop fashion was largely defined by oversized fits and long silhouettes.The 90s were truly the exciting, new inspirational time for fashion in this era, a tsunami of various trends had taken us over and their screaming trends were impossible to ignore.Oversized clothing has been in style for a few years, starting with oversized t-shirts in the “VSCO girl” era.And in the heart of it all were the American fashion and beauty trends, which thanks to Hollywood have taken over the entire world and influenced fashion and beauty 90's fashion for women are back in style and here to stay.
In a day and age of information overload, we need to make sure we're giving credit to Curators who make spaces on the Internet meaningful and accessible" Greg continues.Įxhibitions is the first project from Plaza, the new experimental arm of VSCO that will house a series of experiments, products, and resources for higher intent creators. "Not only do we need to reward creators for their hard work and talents, but the people who notice them and bring them into the spotlight. Tastemakers and cultural curators get the opportunity to utilize their influence, while digital art collectors gain access to the work of visionary artists who are paving the way.
This new ecosystem made up of Collectors, Curators, and Creators is an experiment that VSCO hopes will allow artists to reclaim full control of their value chain. Art sold through Exhibitions funds the respective artists, with a small percentage of each sale going to the Curator of the Exhibition. Their team say Exhibitions marks an entirely new chapter for them, allowing influential curators and conceptual artists to come together and showcase a unique body of digital work, available to view and purchase for a limited amount of time. We want to help buyers know what quality art is by entrusting cultural movers and shakers to guide us in the right direction." said Greg Lutze, Co-Founder and CXO of VSCO. "With so many NFTs out there, it's hard to know what to invest in. Other blockchain technologies present major environmental concerns and VSCO has chosen to partner exclusively with Algorand, only accepting Algos within Exhibitions. Exhibitions is the first highly-curated NFT venue of its kind, and allows users to purchase minted art on the fully carbon-neutral Algorand blockchain.
