Photo by @angelaowens ?I am a total outsider when it comes to all things fashion,? says photographer Angela Owens (@angelaowens), who recently attended Hypefest (@hypefest), a new two-day cultural festival in Brooklyn, New York, that celebrates streetwear. ?This was my first foray into the streetwear world. The kindness and sense of community that I met at Hypefest was far beyond what I expected. The enthusiasm of the fest attendees and the approachability of the designers made for a really welcoming vibe all weekend. It was really cool to get a glimpse of how fashion and culture influence one another.? Check out today?s story to see some of Angela?s photos from the festival.
