Uniform Dressing Ruled at Tokyo and Seoul Fashion Week

Street stylers are roaming around Dongdaemun Plaza in a casual-cool uniform of simple basics like baseball caps, blazers, jeans, and sneakers that mix elements of streetwear and academia. Using the  Street Style Trend Tracker to look back, we found that stylish Tokyoites have been into this look for a few seasons now; further proof that these cities are making fashion trends that travel well. 

Academia meets streetwear with the addition of a baseball cap and sneakers.
