The collection contains all the things Owens is known for including [asymmetrical lines, sculptural designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ys-for-men-x-masses) and super-soft t-shirts. The men’s Rick Owens Drkshdw clothing line is considerably cheaper than Rich Owens’ namesake collection, but will still set you back a pretty penny. Pieces begin to retail at $265 (for a tee) and go as high as $1599 (for a [corduroy and leather jacket](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsaks-dj-vu)). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 77% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Asymmetrical Menswear:** Designing asymmetrical men's clothing with sculptural designs and iconic elements is a growing trend among fashion designers. - **Diffusion Labels:** Creating diffusion labels that are more affordable than the designer's namesake collection is a popular trend in the fashion industry. - **Luxury Streetwear:** The trend toward luxury streetwear, combining high-end fabrics and construction with casual vibes, is growing in popularity in the fashion industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** The asymmetrical menswear trend is one of the many trends in the fashion industry, providing an opportunity for emerging and established designers to create unique and stylish clothing. - **Retail Industry:** The production of diffusion labels is disrupting the retail industry by providing more affordable designer clothing options for consumers. - **Textile Industry:** The growing trend of luxury streetwear can increase the demand for high-quality fabrics and textiles in the textile industry. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Avant Garde Seasonal Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brucolic.md) - [Redefined Fall Everyday Uniforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/observe.md) - [Avant-Garde Dramatic Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-dmxl-megalace.md) - [Elevated Industrial Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rick-owens-x-dr-martens.md) - [Oversized Winter Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/american-symphony.md) - [Fall-Centric Dynamic Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5.md) - [Reconstructive Streetwear Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ys-for-men-x-masses.md) - [Utility Streetwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dickies-and-mastermind-japan.md)
