Last month, Justin Bieber stepped out in New York City wearing his version of an easy summer outfit: a padded denim vest, baggy shorts, and Drew House slippers. He mixed high and low fashion, pairing chunky Off-White sunglasses with a Los Angeles Angels hat. Justin Bieber’s slightly disheveled and grungy style isn’t new; he’s been perfecting this artfully casual look for years. This summer, I’m particularly inspired by his ongoing commitment to outfits that seem effortlessly thrown together.
Summer fashion is best when it feels easy and casual—nothing too styled or perfect. In the heat, you want your outfit to be simple and comfortable. Justin Bieber’s wardrobe this season captures this vibe: he takes emerging designers and fresh runway pieces and makes them look nonchalant. For example, on a recent date night with Hailey Bieber, he wore a crisp blue Maison Margiela button-up shirt paired with extremely baggy jeans, black leather clogs, and sporty Prada shades. The whole look was cool and effortless.
Justin Bieber’s dressed-down aesthetic is perfect for summer. Unlike the serious, layered looks of fall and winter, summer style is more relaxed and fun. It’s almost like Bieber mixes things on purpose because, well, it’s his day off. He even managed to pull off gym shorts with fisherman sandals. That’s style!
Even if Bieber’s slightly messy style isn’t your favorite, appreciate it for what it is. He shows that your summer wardrobe doesn’t have to be overthought. Some days, you can mix and match and enjoy the result. After all, clothes are meant to show your personality!
