Punk
as a fashion is pretty varied & difficult to specifically pin point into one key look but thats what makes it so unique.
Influenced by the clothes designed by Vivienne westwood in the 70's & sold in 'Sex'. Classing of torn up offensive t-shirts & brightly coloured dress shirts.

Other aspects from the 70's included the now much seen safety pin additives, leather jackets, military boots & bondage trousers. From the stylings of the 'Bromley contingement' to the stylings of The ramones even back then it was a mis-match of items.

Diy clothing was also a key aspect, taking everyday items or other items of clothing & turning them into something individual from using tape & safety pins to customise an item, to turning bin

bags into dresse's, customised prints & even tutu's.
You can still see diy being hugely used today from the old diy stylings of manic street preachers with spray painted shirts & iconic pictures taped onto tops, alongside the huge trend of diy items which you can find all over ebay currently from tee's turned into bags, baggy tops into dresse's & even old pillow case's into skirts!

In general the more modern punk look seen today includes leather jackets, plaid bondage pants, chains, diy items & military boots alongside brightly dyed hair either mohawked or slightly shaven.
You can also find styles such as Deathrock, Rockabilly & Hardcore alongside the Punk tag nowadays with aspects being taken into the style.
