The Movement Music Festival has become synonymous with celebrating all forms of art in the city of Detroit. As an event that draws global attention, it provides a significant platform for local talent to shine, especially in the realm of fashion. This iconic festival not only showcases the best in techno music but also highlights the innovative and diverse styles of Detroit’s fashion scene. As we countdown the days until this year's festival, we're excited to highlight some of the fashion influences we expect to see this year.

Local Talent & Detroit Pride

Detroit’s fashion scene is a dynamic mix of innovation and tradition, with local talent leading the charge in avant-garde, sustainable, experimental, and streetwear fashion. This year, we’re excited to see how these designers and brands bring their unique styles to the festival.

From those rocking custom pieces from our city's talented design pool to repping local designers or streetwear brands, we’re excited to see the love and passion for Detroit shine. Last year, several local brands had notable presences at the festival, and we’re eager to see which ones will have booths this year. From bold, experimental pieces to chic, eco-conscious fashion, Detroit’s local talent offers something for everyone.

International Influence

Movement is a global event that attracts visitors and performers from around the world, and this international influence is vividly reflected in the festival fashion. Expect to see a melting pot of styles with a diverse array of looks inspired by global techno hubs.

Berlin, in particular, has become synonymous with techno style. The city's edgy, utilitarian fashion perfectly complements the techno aesthetic, and this influence is sure to be seen at Movement. The festival provides a unique opportunity to see how international trends blend with local styles, creating a vibrant and eclectic fashion scene. We're excited to see how festival-goers from around the world bring their own unique styles, infusing global influences with their personal touch.

Reimagining Black on Black Techno Tradition

One of the most iconic and enduring fashion statements at Movement is the “black on black” look. However, what’s exciting this year is seeing how attendees are reimagining this classic aesthetic.

Wearing all black is the ‘traditional’ techno attire, but many are infusing elements of personal style to make their outfits stand out. Whether it's through unique textures, unexpected accessories, or subtle pops of color, festival-goers are finding creative ways to honor the all black tradition while making it uniquely their own.

Additionally, we're excited to see how some are taking this concept further by exploring monochromatic looks that aren't all black. From head-to-toe denim ensembles to vibrant, single-color outfits, attendees are showcasing their creativity and pushing the boundaries of festival fashion.

The Detroit Fashion Community will be on the scene at Movement, and we’d love to connect with you! Come find us to chat about your outfit or the incredible fashion you see at the festival. Let’s celebrate the one-of-a-kind styles that make Movement an unforgettable event!
