What If Billie Eilish Wore Local Streetwear Brands?

Crying black tears not included.

The 18-year old Grammy-winner is known for her over-the-top baggy clothes, crazy claws, and outrageous style—an anti thesis to the good-girl-gone-bad formula that record labels usually manufacture out of rising pop stars.

When Calvin Klein tapped Billie Eilish a year ago for their ad campaign, she shared her style introspection. “That’s why I wear baggy clothes. Nobody can have an opinion because they haven’t seen what’s underneath. Nobody can be like, ‘she’s slim-thick,’ ‘she’s not slim-thick,’ ‘she’s got a flat ass,’ ‘she’s got a fat ass.’ No one can say any of that because they don’t know,” Billie revealed. We stan an unbothered queen. Our year-end wish? Let women LIVE.

While we’re still daydreaming about Billie coming to Manila post-quarantine soon, we can only wish she’d be decked in local streetwear brands like when fellow musician Khalid wore DBTK during his 2018 American Teen Tour. It’s a no flex zone, but supporting local, especially now, is the way to go. Scroll down below to see all the brands we want to see in Billie’s Manila concert wardobe in the future!
