Rockabilly
Rockabilly is first & foremost known as a musicial genre created in the 50's; & later influenced the pyschobilly scene in the 80's. But out of this musicial genre an entire lifestyle & fashion grew.
In it's original heyday the look closely matched the artists creating the music. Imitating the likes of Buddy Holly & Johnny Cash with sharp cut suits, swept back hair & creepers. The women's fashion was more tight sweaters & poodle skirts.
Over the decades the look has filtered down & adapted to cultural influences, taking on a bit of a punk influence along the way.
Now in the 00's, the rockabilly look shares it's ties with the original image, but with new touches being constantly added. The look favours a touch of kitsch Americana, tattoo prints & skulls in with elements of the original look.
With the greased hair still integral to the look, or a more Bettie influenced cut for the ladies. Alongside creepers, tight jeans, leopard prints, cats eye glasses, capri's & printed tees.
The look is slightly darker compared to the 50's style, taking on influence from the pin-up's of the era; paticularly with ladies preferring the Bettie Page look too.
