DURING the mid 1970s punk rock hit the world, with rock taking the lead role, and fashion soon following, with the wacky sense of layering and the obscure layering of all different shades of... reds, black, greens and more. Not to forget the use of studs bolted on to the clothing, swell as the spikes and metal chains, and big shoes.
This Fall 13' has seen the introduction of the punk look again. Looking at recent catwalks most designers are designing some of there garments to fit into the punk category . Designers such as Junya Watanabe to Donattela Versace . Whilst looking at the catwalks from the Fall I have noticed more than anything the use of tartan, another element of punk. Leather blackjackets are also a concept very much in at the moment. Obviously with the added stud on the leather too.
From what I have noticed it is the way the clothing is placed onto the model that catches my eye. The way that the clothing is not fitted, and it almost slumps across the body with an added geometric shape to it. I think this adds a casual, but recent and contemporary style to wear daily in the street.
The shoes are another big feature. The boot is obviously making another appearance this Winter. The thick leather soles of the punk era make a reappearance showing us that it is not all about the colourfully presented stilettos . The leather soles of boots old school black leather boots have been spotted in a number of shows . Rodarte , Moschino, and Chanel being the best examples for the old school Punk boot.
Not only is the boot a stylish feature for the junk look you could be going for but it is also practical in the harsh London weather.
