"Fashion Is a Lifestyle" Part 2


There have been many youth fashion movements throughout the 20th Century which have had both an aesthetic and social impact on society.

The Punk Movement

The Punk movement first began in the mid 1970s in America, United Kingdom and Australia and had many forms of expression including fashion, art and music.
Punks set out to outrage society with the use of clothing, tattoos, piercings and outrageous hairstyles. Early Punk style included ripped clothing held together with safety pins, drainpipe jeans, Tartan/Plaid Kilts or skirts, leather Jackets, metal studs and spikes and Converse trainers.
