Streetwear Icons: How These Celebrities Embrace the Drip and the Culture

Streetwear has gone from under-the-radar to ubiquitous—turning into a global phenomenon that’s hard to ignore. One of the biggest reasons for its meteoric growth? Celebrities flexing their sartorial influence. From oversized hoodies to designer sneakers, streetwear has emerged from the depths of the underground to become a coveted and star-studded lifestyle picked up by the masses. And as stars rock and redefine the culture, they set trends that millions follow worldwide. 

Within this context, SKINARMA steps into the arena with our bold phone cases, stylish apparel and street-inspired accessories to help the urban folks level up their drip, all with a flair for function. But let’s not get ahead of ourselves—that’s another story for another day.

Here, roll through the iconic figures who’ve shaped the streetwear scene and see how a fire style can stoke the flames of street culture today.

Kanye West, the Pioneer of High-End Streetwear

Controversial he might be, but few names are as synonymous with streetwear as Ye (better known as Kanye West). Known for his audacious approach to fashion, Kanye took streetwear from oversized T-shirts and baggy jeans to a realm where high fashion and urban culture collide. Through his brand, Yeezy, Kanye masterfully merges minimalist aesthetics with street-savvy designs, especially with his footwear. His Yeezy sneakers have become a cornerstone of sneaker culture, with fans lining up for hours—or even days—to seize the latest drop. We empathize.

Kanye's impact on streetwear goes beyond footwear, though. He’s a trendsetter in everything from boxy, oversized outerwear to sleek, utilitarian designs. He has revolutionized fashion by blurring the lines between high-end luxury and street culture.

Travis Scott, the Hypebeast Hero

Travis Scott is one of the most influential figures in modern streetwear. His laid-back, oversized aesthetic has made him a streetwear icon, and his collaborations with major brands like Nike, Helmut Lang and, well, Reese’s Puffs have set the internet ablaze. Travis has mastered blending hype with exclusivity, from his Cactus Jack Air Jordans to limited-edition McDonald’s merch.

Travis’s style is all about comfort with a street-ready edge. Think oversized hoodies, cargo pants, and vibrant kicks accented with his signature rebellious touch. His music, public appearances, and even partnerships have created a frenzy among streetwear enthusiasts, who emulate his effortlessly cool vibe. 

Rihanna, the Queen of Bold Streetwear

When it comes to fearless fashion, Rihanna reigns supreme. Her style defies convention, blending elements of streetwear with high-fashion opulence. Riri’s bold, unapologetic choices, from oversized jackets to luxe tracksuits, have become a beacon for streetwear enthusiasts, particularly women. With her Fenty line, she also managed to successfully infuse streetwear with luxury, creating a brand that caters to those who crave authenticity and individuality. Fenty, you’ll be missed.

Rihanna’s impact on streetwear can be felt across the globe. She has proven that streetwear is not just a male-dominated scene—women can be just as influential, if not more. Her ability to marry femininity with street culture has paved the way for a new wave of fashionistas who see streetwear as self-expression. 

A$AP Rocky, the Icon of Street Culture

A$AP Rocky has become the poster child for high-end streetwear, effortlessly combining clean-cut European fashion with inspiring urban street styles. Known for his eclectic outfits, A$AP Rocky has clarified that streetwear can be sophisticated, playful and boundary-pushing. His collaborations with top designers, like Raf Simons and Dior, have cemented his place as a global fashion icon.

Rocky’s style is an organized chaos of luxury and street, often mixing tailored pieces with sneakers or oversized, avant-garde designs. His ability to play with textures, colors, and layers has set him apart as a true trendsetter. 

Billie Eilish, the Queen of Loose-Fit Fashion

Billie Eilish, one of the youngest and most influential figures in the streetwear scene, has made the oversized aesthetic her signature look. Known for her baggy clothes and bold, logo-heavy designs, Billie has shattered traditional fashion norms, rejecting gendered clothing in favor of styles prioritizing comfort and self-expression. Her oversized silhouettes, vibrant colors, and love for exclusive streetwear brands have made her a trailblazer for Gen Z.

Billie’s approach to streetwear is refreshingly unique. She uses fashion as self-protection, choosing clothes that make her feel powerful rather than vulnerable. Her influence on the next generation of streetwear lovers is undeniable, and her style encourages authenticity and freedom of expression. 

Resonating with this philosophy, SKINARMA’s phone cases and accessories, designed to reflect bold individuality, allow users to embrace their version of self-expression, just like Billie does with her oversized fits. And with that in mind…
