Vaporwave is a retro-futuristic internet aesthetic of 80s and 90s nostalgia, glitch art, and anti-capitalist irony, born online around 2010 and 2011 as a critique of consumer culture through surreal pastiche. Pastel or neon-hued windbreakers carry it. 80s-inspired sports gear fills out the rest. Japanese text graphic tees cover the prints. Platform sneakers go below, with holographic accessories and retro sunglasses.
