The best looks from Afropunk Brooklyn

Dubbed “The People Resist”, attendees came dressed to the nines in thought-provoking outfits that celebrated their unique characters and what each attendee believes in through the title of Afropunk. 

We can't wait to see what Afropunk Atlanta and Afropunk Johannesburg has in store for us. 

Here are some of the best looks from Afropunk Brooklyn.

We look we're on a strict organic plant based diet and do yoga 3 times a week, and charge our crystals every full moon, and say things like "Vibrate higher" or "Your chakras aren't aligned".

One with nature

Monique LeVan What’s the difference between cultural appropriation and appreciation? “When you appreciate a culture, you give credit to its roots. When you appropriate a culture, you take it for your own and give it a whole new name. Boxer braids…who’s is that? Not mine.” @stayreddy

Resist the labels

“My name is Corwin Joseph, and this year I am resisting toxic masculinity, heteronormativity, and white supremacy. We have to be more visible than ever before. My blackness is beautiful, my blackness is bold, and I refuse to ever give up or stop fighting. We will be seen.” Photo by @ruddyroye

Lady in green

The #streetstyle at #afropunkbrooklyn continues year after year to be unmatched. @iyannathemodel this #goddess is still one of my faves this year... I’ve seen only incredible shots of her from many photographers... Definitely continues to be the most #inspirational #festivals out of the many I’ve been to. (I missed the actual festival this year.... but went to The afterparty. .... First I’ve missed in 4 years, but won’t miss it again. ... next year, I’ll have a good camera :) Photo by @manrepeller (I think ) . . . .. . . #fashion #brooklyn #music #style #art #fashionstylist #art #streetwear #beauty #afropunkbrooklyn #lifestyleblog #styleblog #contentcreator #influencer #inspirational #creative #glamour

Accessories are a girl's best friend

Perks of the big skirt, hair, and hat = optimal personal space allocations for festival crowds... #thepeopleresist #afropunk #afropunk2018 #curlygirlcollective #nyc #newyork #brooklyn #explorenyc #womenwhoexplore #melaninjourney #afro #multiracial #mixxxedchicks #naturalchixs #naturalhaircommunity #mynaturalisdope #biracial #healthy_hair_journey #mixedpride #igcurls #naturallyshesdope #naturalhaircommunity #hairspiration #naturalhairrocks #projectrunway #altfashion #blacktravel #protectivestyle #curlypearls
