If you’ve ever wondered what modern day subcultures look like in today’s age of digital media, there’s only one place you should be looking towards for the most vibrant expression of them all — ComplexCon. Complex Magazine’s festival is a cultural blender of pop culture, fashion and music lovers (and “Young kids with ideas that are going to change the world,” said Don C) from all over.
It’s where the people come in and where the outfits come out.

We took some time at the Long Beach show to record some of these outfits in their natural environments. Check out our favorite looks from the weekend below and let us know what you think of them.
See a friend? Let them know they made the cut.
