Models are styled with a modern gladiator concept in mind. The predominantly black collection is rich in texture and uses accents of color and print as its bright focal point. These urban ensembles feature tribal-inspired footwear, neck pieces and elaborately detailed headdresses. The collection is given an urban nomad flair with embellished ensembles and accessories that showcase a multitude of studs, gromets, leathers and belting techniques. This city-bound collection is street-wear heaven with a definite rock and roll sensibility. The KTZ Spring 2012 collection puts emphasis on the use of draping with pieces like loose-fitting trousers, shorts and jackets. The eclectic collection features classic must-haves sure to be signature staples along with statement pieces that are bold and eye-catching. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 83% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Fashion for Men](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashionformen) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Streetwear Fashion:** Designing streetwear fashion with a high fashion edge and functionality combined. - **Urban Nomad Trend:** Creating an urban nomad trend using embellished ensembles and accessories that showcase a multitude of studs, grommets, leathers and belting techniques. - **Draping Techniques:** Exploring the use of draping techniques for loose-fitting trousers, shorts and jackets in fashion design collections. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry should combine streetwear fashion with high fashion edge and focus on creating an urban nomad trend. - **Footwear Industry:** The footwear industry should innovate tribal-inspired footwear for streetwear fashion collections. - **Jewelry and Accessories Industry:** The jewelry and accessories industry should combine urban nomad flair with multiple usage of studs, grommets, leathers and belting techniques for its own unique style. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Elevated Grunge Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/express-to-mars.md) - [Punk Rock-Informed Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superculture-collection.md) - [Edgy Backpack-Centric Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time.md) - [Fabric-Centric Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sage-nation-5.md) - [Spring-Centric Technical Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hyke-1.md) - [Vibrant Spring Streetwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corteiz-7.md) - [Luxury Slow Fashion Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kzk-studio.md) - [Spring-Centric Outerwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/namacheko-1.md)
