What are freaknik outfits?
The term “freaknik” was coined from the combination of the words ‘freaky’ and ‘picnic’.
Freaknik was an annual spring break party that was held in Atlanta in the 90’s.
This idea was conceived by students from black colleges and universities who wanted to freely celebrate their African American heritage.
The first freaknik was held in 1992 and it became popular eventually and was pulling crowds of over 100,000 people every year.
Freaknik outfits varied a bit, largely depending on where you’re going, but there were some typical themes which includes bold patterns and bright colors.
These themes were popular because they made it easier for the partygoers to easily spot each other in the crowd.
Also, these outfits were made with materials that were easy to dance in.
Freaknik outfits are a loud fashion trend. In a traditional freaknik party, you’ll come across the likes of floral prints, flared jeans, plaid shirts, baggy short, and skinny jeans. Loose clothing is also a part of the mix to allow for free movement when dancing.
The beautiful thing about freaknik outfits is that they allow for freedom of style. For instance, one partygoer might prefer to wear neon-colored tracksuits while another might prefer jeans and a button-up top, both are still in line with the theme!
Another set of accessories worthy of note are sunglasses and bandanas. Freaknik partygoers wore them over their faces as they danced through the festival grounds.
