Although I’ve decided to go for a relatively polished look this year, anything is possible and I may end up embracing my inner grunge with the Cheap Monday [AW10](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hodinkee-and-braun) collection.

Closing the Stockholm Fashion Week, the Cheap Monday AW10 collection continues to live up to its trendsetting reputation. Featuring [raw designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louther-x-carhartt-wip-fw25) that include clawed clothes and [rougher textures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir), I’m sure it will more than satisfy its avid followers.
