Luxe Grunge (also known as boho-chic or "luxe bohemian" [1]) is a chicer updated grunge/boho collection; an unkempt approach to wardrobe (a la Olsen twins).
First motivated by Seattle’s groundbreaking rock scene in the 1990s – the modern update contains all the mainstays of yesterday’s grunge (flannel, plaid, layers and leg warmers) alongside today’s sophisticated pieces, including capes, shawls and jackets ([www.theitlists.com], Sept 2006). Grunge elements featured strongly in fashion collections in Autumn 2006, including styles referred to "cocktail grunge" and "modern goth" [2].
Lisa Armstrong, fashion editior of the London Times referred to Patrick Lichfield's iconic 1969 photograph of Talitha Getty on a Marrakesh roof-top as "typif[ying] the luxe bohemian look" [3]
