The Underrated Fashion Influence of Torque

Twenty years ago, and at the ripe age of 11-years-old, I was obsessed with two things: Britney Spears’s In The Zone album, and the action movie Torque. You’ve likely heard of the former piece of art, but the latter film is seriously underrated. Directed by Joseph Kahn (who also did Britney’s “Toxic” video), the film centers around a biker (Martin Henderson) who’s on the run from various other rough-and-tough bike dudes. The movie may not have won any Oscars, but its fashion is a hidden gem.

The Iconic Biker Wardrobe

Costume designed by Elisabetta Beraldo, Torque features a sleek biker wear worn by cast members such as Monet Mazur, Ice Cube, Jaime Pressly, and Christina Milian. The edgy moto styles adorned with colorful racing stripes make a lasting impression on any viewer. The characters’ outfits are full-throttle and exude a cool nonchalance that is hard to replicate.

The Timeless Appeal

Even two decades later, the wardrobe in Torque still feels fresh and relevant. Designers continue to draw inspiration from racing jackets, as seen on the spring 2024 runways of labels like Casablanca and Balenciaga. The modern versions of these jackets, with colorful piping and bold logos, are a great addition to any wardrobe, transforming a basic look into a badass ensemble.

Embracing the Biker Babe Aesthetic

Similar to the Fast & Furious films, Torque showcases biker babes dressed to kill in leather. From skin-tight zip-up jackets to cropped halter tops paired with leather pants, the characters exude confidence and style. The cool factor of their outfits is undeniable, making leather jackets a timeless fashion statement.

Final Thoughts

So, if you haven’t already, do yourself a favor and watch Torque for its underrated fashion influence. The biker style showcased in the film is not just a trend from 2004; it’s a timeless aesthetic that continues to inspire designers and fashion enthusiasts alike. Consider adding a racing jacket to your wardrobe this spring and embrace the badass biker babe look effortlessly.
