Over the past couple of weeks I have caught this group of four high school kids around town. What is so intriguing is that they are all dressed in 70’s punk style. One kid has a huge red mohawk which I presume makes him the leader, and the rest of them have your classic chains and plaid pants, patches on the sweatshirts, and dyed hair. I understand what the clothing and style means, but that style stayed in the 70’s and 80’s. Anyone dressing like that now looks like they are just throwing tribute to those who came before them or are coming from a costume party. It in no way shows individuality or represents yourself. It becomes almost a mockery at some point when you start wearing that everyday.
I think there is a modern equivalent to those punk styles, and it’s more actions than looks.
