Style Focus : Grunge..

The reason why I choose Grunge as a first one is simple... Im a big fan of this style, but to me its not only clothes but also a lifestyle and music. This kind of style is really simple just plain white oversized T-shirst or a band Tee with holes etc + tartan blose + skinny jeans and creepers or convers, messy hair style big sunglasses and dark makeup. Yes sounds simple but they way people put everything together it makes them look ' hardcore' haha. 

It conveys an "I don't give a fuck" attitude. It is loosely tied in with rock and punk, but stands as it's own genre of music and style of dress. Instead of going out of their way to be the opposite of a "conformist", people with grunge style simply don't participate. They are generally the ones who play guitar, live for the music, let their hair get knotted, their clothes filthy and their attitudes nonchalant. They just don't care, they throw on whatever. Kurt did it the best.

Grunge fashion popularized Doc Martens style shoes and boots, and high-top sneakers in red, indigo, forest green, and black (such as Chuck Taylor All-Stars). It emphasized long hair, which most teen and pre-teen girls already had, and which a few teen and pre-teen boys adopted. Grunge fashion was a unisex phenomenon. Although the grunge look was considered "anti-fashion", the fashion industry made it a distinct fashion style by selling plaid items like hooded sweatshirts, sweatshirt vests, long sleeved t-shirts and shorts. Grunge fashion remained popular through 1994. 


Though flannel plaid shirts remained popular through 1997, fashion started to move away from many of the other plaid styles in 1994. Waffle-patterns became popular on sweatshirts and polo shirts with colours such as white, beige and red, and remained popular until 1995. Olive green t-shirts, sweatshirts and dress shirts were all the rage in 1994 and 1995. Olive green remained more or less popular through 1998. Grey also became popular, and Oatmeal and wheat started to become popular with girls and women. Bowling shirts became popular, and remained more or less popular for the remainder of the 1990s. In the fall of 1994, bell-bottom jeans were replaced with wide-leg jeans. White denim became fashionable among guys as well as girls.' 


As Kurt would say :\
