hippest

Trendiest of all

Hippest is the superlative of hip, meaning the most fashionable, aware, or culturally attuned: the hippest clubs in Brooklyn, She always knows the hippest new bands.

The word carries a slight whiff of trying too hard—being labeled hippest by others is cooler than claiming it yourself.
