With [high-end leather ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-spring-collection), denim and futuristic tracksuits all in the mix, the pieces were held together by a shared underground vibe. All-black ensembles were popular in the runway show -- with stylish leather jackets paired along with silky pants that were accented with leather straps and punk-like boots that were covered in buckles. The tracksuits, which look to be one-piece ensembles that are cinched at the waist, were presented in a [monochrome charcoal colorway](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5), as well as an olive and navy one that came accented with a slight contrast of yellow. The denim styles presented in the Versus Versace Spring/Summer collection were ripped artfully and frayed at the hems, giving them a rugged look that added to the theme perfectly. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 89% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Underground Fashion:** There is an opportunity to explore and innovate in the underground fashion space, with a focus on high-end leather, denim, and futuristic tracksuits. - **All-black Ensembles:** Designers can capitalize on the popularity of all-black ensembles, incorporating stylish leather jackets, silky pants with leather straps, and punk-like boots. - **Rugged Denim:** There is room for disruption in the denim industry by creating ripped and frayed denim styles that give a rugged and edgy look. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion designers and retailers can tap into the underground fashion trend and create unique and edgy collections. - **Leather Goods:** The leather goods industry can capitalize on the increasing demand for high-quality leather ensembles and accessories. - **Denim:** There is an opportunity to innovate in the denim industry by incorporating rugged and distressed styles in collections. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Punk Rock-Informed Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superculture-collection.md) - [Coordinated Leather Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-spring-collection.md) - [Workwear-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-springsummer-2024.md) - [Intimate Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-springsummer-2026.md) - [Edgy Backpack-Centric Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time.md) - [Fall-Centric Dynamic Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5.md) - [Bright Timeless Spring Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-spring-2024-collection.md) - [Desert-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-ss25-collection.md)
