And, like all cities around the world, with sunshine comes one thing: streets filled with young, stylish people. Looks ranged from clown-like make-up and Rick Owens coats, metallic arm contraptions and spray-painted silver hands, plus beaten leather jackets or full faces of piercings. Whether they were underground on the metro, above ground scaling the sides of buildings, or waiting outside their favourite shows, photographer Yu Fujiwara was on hand to capture all the young Parisians in their subversive street style. Some used clothing as a symbol of Palestinian solidarity, with one showgoer wearing a keffiyeh adorned with watermelon crescents, while another was tattooed with the phrase ‘no future’ across the back of their skull. Much more so than previous generations, today’s young people have the entire history of fashion at their fingertips, which means that a carousel of styles and tastes appear on the street mixed together, rather than one dominant mode of dressing. Today, hypebeasts, goths, clowns, maximalists, minimalists and everything in between congregate at each season’s shows, presenting a 360 degree portrait of what young Paris looks like now.
