22 Gangster Fashion Spreads

From Studded Gangster Styles to Young Mafioso Editorials

— July 11, 2013 — Fashion
Incorporating elements from cultural aspects of society is a creative way for fashion retailers to connect with ordinary people, and these gangster fashion spreads will definitely strike a cord with individuals familiar with that youthful yet dangerous theme.

Gangsters are often regarded as types of people who deal in dangerous and often violent criminal activities, something that can be observed in most neighborhoods and cities. While gangster behavior is certainly frowned upon by authorities, it's sometimes seen as an inspiring and hip notion by a younger generation of individuals. That's why these gangster fashion spreads are utilizing that iconic mobster look as a way to attract a more youthful audience.

From Hollywood gangster editorials to bandana-clad shoots, these mafioso-inspired fashion spreads are a fantastic indication of how culture is seeping into mainstream fashion.
