What is the Blokette aesthetic?

Let’s proceed in order. Coquette is a French term: equivalent to flirtatiousto, perfunctory. But we shouldn’t jump to conclusions, because in reality Coquette girls are not Coquette girls and they don’t even like the shameless “challenge”. Their style, probably, is extremely girly. Feminine but also romantic and sophisticated. Made of pleated mini skirts, sequined clothes, lace and lace. But also silk slipdresses, pencil skirts, charming see-through lace stockings and Mary Janes. In short, Coquettish girls love to enhance their physique and play with fashion, alternating I put retro and/or sober with an impressive look. Depending on the mood of the moment.

Blokecore, on the other hand, is a trend that “exploded” in the summer of 2023, which finds inspiration in the subcultures of British football. The soccer jersey (ie the soccer jersey) is the undisputed star of this aesthetic, but in the name of customization other items can enter the field. For example, the basketball jersey. Importantly, the reference to athletic endeavors is strong. And that the whole look is sporty/casual. Then it was completed with jeans or shorts, joggers and so on. Here you are, Blokette is the fusion of these two radically opposite worlds. Absolute contrast is its essence.

Because every detail is studied down to the smallest detail.

And there is another key element: the retro touchwhich takes you back to the 1990s and 2000s. So among the must haves we find the iconic Acetate sweatshirt with zipper and sneakers, such as Adidas Samba the Vans Old School. To avoid mistakes, it is good and proper to identify a common thread.
