	1970s Punks Fashion History Vivienne Westwood, body piercing

		Punk was a movement ridiculed by society for its insane fashion and individuality.
		For that reason alone, she has been dubbed the “godmother of punk.” Patti Smith’s influence on punk is not just confined to CBGB because she was one of the genre’s more prolific artists.

	The Mutated Child of Punk

	"How Punk Was NYC Punk?"
		Punk, or what became punk rock in Britain, was a product of American sources, with roots varying from Bill Haley and his Comets' first chords of rock music to the self-centered poetry of the beat generation's best authors.
		Punk may have been lost in time, but it created a music and style that was a new aesthetic, and it meant that one did not have to be a hippie or a genius musician to be in a rock band.
		A punk used to be a hoodlum, and New York punk was too weird to be purely street tough enough to be "punk." The New Yorkers were either flamboyant and campy or too overtly intellectualized and dreamy.

	sociology - Punk rock
		Punk rock was also a reaction against certain tendencies that had overtaken popular music in the 1970s, including what the punks saw as superficial "disco" music and grandiose forms of heavy metal, progressive rock and "arena rock." Punk also rejected the remnants of the hippie counterculture of the 1960s.
		Punk rock emphasised simple musical structure and short songs, extolling a DIY ethic that insisted anyone could form a punk rock band (the early UK punk fanzine Sniffin' Glue once famously included drawings of three chord shapes, captioned, "this is a chord, this is another, this is a third.
		British punk fashion deliberately outraged propriety with the highly theatrical use of cosmetics and hairstyles: eye makeup might cover half the face, hair might stand in spikes or be cut into a "Mohawk" or other radical shapes, and might also be drastically colored.

	Counterblast :: The E-journal of Communication and Culture
		American punk rock really was always about taste, about defining oneself as outside the mainstream, not through economic situation or a mythologized class consciousness, but through a secret society of musical taste where ones' identity was validated through what one accepted and rejected as legitimate forms of musical expression.
		In a way, punk rock became similar to dance culture and club culture where the music is also seen as having a canon, but capable of (and in need of) constant evolution and adaptation, although it is doubtful that dance culture has become as relentlessly doctrinaire as modern punk culture.
		Punk bands that have achieved a modicum of mainstream success such as Green Day were seen as derivative of the original canon and also as "selling out" by a community that tries to avoid major record labels and access to widespread audiences as a conscious decision.

	Punk77 - What was punk
		For me punk at its best, was a spontaneous, infectious outburst of aggression and alienation set to music and cool clothes that swept aside politics, feelings, commercialism, gender and political correctness.
		From the moment punk had entered mainstream consciousness bands and fans turned in on themselves and argued among each other as to who was more punk - fashion to anti fashion.
		Up rose the banner 'punks not dead' and 'Oi' arrived; a punk/skinhead hybrid music that seems to have been a deliberate invention of music writers like Gary Bushell who wanted to hijack punk as a great working class movement.

	Punk Rock: geek chic in Punk Rock
		Fashion is cyclical; things go into and then out of fashion on a regular (almost predictable,as they are often reactions to current trends) cycle.
		Punk fashion pretty much wiped out the hippe threads beginning around the mid 70's, but of course suits were only a fraction of the sartorial explosion; Richard Hell's cut-up art damaged t-shirts, bondage gear, the ubiquitous jeans, t-shirt and leather jacket, etc. all featured prominently then and still do today.
		Cobain's fashion sense was all the rage, people were also listening to who he was listening to, and he frequently name-checked the no wave/new wave bands of the late 70's.

	Punk Forum Responses
		Punk is about saying "To hell with conforming." The culture (funny how that word is so similar to cult...huh) was about getting away from governments, music industries, and just the superficiality of the entire "civilized" world.

		Punk was a word that defined a small scene in NYC but was marketed over in England as that thing that "kids are doing these days." Once punk became this "thing everyone was doing" and a fashion, it became silly and contrived.

		Punk's aggressively downbeat look — a pastiche of fl leather jackets, shin-hugging jeans and festoons of chains — has showed up on a few runways, in ads and in the wardrobes of high-school hipsters.
		Punk, of course, has often been resurrected since the Ramones first thrashed around the stage of CBGB in the mid-70's.
