 Punk fashion - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Many punks believed that punk itself is not what you're wearing or what you look like but a concept which lies within the music itself which itself should be the definition of what punk really is. For many people the phrase 'punk fashion' is an oxymoron, as they see punk as the antithesis of fashion.
Contemporary punk fashion has been primarily influenced by hardcore and grunge, and to a lesser extent goth and Death rock, which may be seen as interesting as those cultures' fashion styles were influenced by the original punk fashions.
Many members of punk bands have said that they are against the punk look.

Dressling like a punk rocker is all about embracing your individuality and making a statement which says to the world — “I’m proud of Who I Am.” Punk rockers don’t feel compelled to dress like anybody else and they couldn’t give a toss as to what society and the media dictates as being currently cool.
With the ever growing popularity of punk/rock music and the rise of quirky musicians such as Gwen Stefani and Kelly Osbourne, it was only logical that the mainstreaming of punk fashion would also come into being.
Another point to remember when dressing like a punk rocker is that you should not ignore colour.
