It's clear that the fashion industry draws its inspiration from nostalgia, and is now turning its focus to the early 2000s -- Weekday's Y2K collection speaks to this generational pivot, with a capsule denim collection that's inspired by some of the iconic looks of the time.
Inspired by some of the iconic stars of the time, like Britney Spears and Destiny's Child, the collection boasts low-waisted jeans, strappy tank tops, and wearable lingerie pieces. When speaking to the collection, Weekday stated “The collection is tribute to those who found “family and belonging” in underground dance parties." As a result, the capsule is youthful, energetic, and ready-to-wear, enabling consumers to seamlessly transition from day to night.
