Ideas generation for project

This week, our class need to have a brainstorm of our first major project, which need to relate our major subject. Therefore, I had some idea of the fashion with Punk style. Think about if Punk being a fashion trends on 20s, how would the manufacturers and the fashion industry to define and propose the design with Punk...

' The 80s was the most amazing year '. I had already heard a hundred times from my mother. She always said that the 80s belonged to the year which full of color and innovation. Not only the fashion, food and entertainment culture, whether it is the culture of Hong Kong or United Kingdom, they all were developed very prosperously in the 1980s. At that time, there were also had a very conspicuous but unacceptable for the society culture-The Punk. You might think that it seems to be really normal in our fashion today, but in contrast, it was totally different situation at those time. Let me introduce some details with Punk to you.

Punk fashion is the clothing, hairstyles, cosmetics, jewellery, and body modifications of the punk subculture.

Punk culture publish in the 1970-80s. At the beginning, it used to be a musical rebellious movement, the main purpose was to resist and oppose some avant-garde rock. It is subversive, rebellious and anarchistic. In addition, It was based on a certain topic that the problem with the society facing in the mid-1970s after World War II, such as the lower class had being repressed by the government and higher class... Punk culture had brought these message to society, reminding that not everyone is doing well and not everyone is the same. Under the economic downturn and the special socio-political background, lots of young people in the lower class of British society has been join and be the part with an anti-traditional composed-the Punk. 

The Punk group use their maverick dress style to show themselves that they are difference from the normal culture or other youth subcultures. They rejected authority, advocated the elimination in class and also "sex and subversion". Therefore there were not only affect with the pop music, at the same time it is also a resistance and rebellion against fashion. 

At the most of the time, they usually call themselves DIY (doityourself), remake and reproduce with cheap clothing and fabrics, and the Punks like to use dog chains as a decorations, wearing with open threads or frayed edges clothes,  print with vulgar words or maybe some violent t-shirt, stockings, and wear the classic sign-Dr Martin. Hairstyles are also one of the focus points of punk styles. They spray up their hair with a really high level and dyed in different brightness colors, apply smoky makeup, dark-toned lipstick, pierce with the part of body, for example: ears, nose, cheeks and lips with safety pins, in various ways to against their traditional society.
