"Sometimes, though, he landed a little closer to provocation that conciliation, fashion-wise. Case in point: his fit last year, comprised of a neon pink beanie, Balenciaga crocs, and ultra-oversized suit that made him look as though he had borrowed Hagrid's outfit from the Yule Ball. It was definitely interesting. And noteworthy. But few would be so foolhardy as to try to play Justin's game in that particularly instance."
"He cleaned up nice, but still looked like himself. The baggy pants, simple chain, the overall IDGAF attitude-it's like the Bieber we've been waiting for has returned to the limelight. (He was also wearing an "ICE Out" pin, which matched with that of his wife.) If you, mere mortal, are thinking about emulating said look...well, for the first time in a while, we'd say you should go for it."
Justin Bieber displays a long-standing tendency to zig when others zag, cultivating anti-fashion looks that polarize fans and detractors. Occasionally his choices edge toward provocation rather than conciliation, as with last year’s neon pink beanie, Balenciaga crocs and ultra-oversized suit that evoked Hagrid’s Yule Ball outfit. At the recent Grammys he presented a more wearable red-carpet ensemble—baggy pants, a simple chain and an IDGAF attitude—complete with a matching “ICE Out” pin with his wife, a look suggested for emulation by everyday fans. He then reverted to shock value onstage in shiny boxer shorts and a tattooed torso, which is not recommended to copy.
