On the eve of the upcoming party "Pankuha: Fuck up work!" Nastya Sartan, the organizer of the party and Bayer Look at Me Store , decided to share the facts about punk shifts, black, pallor and punk artifacts that can be found in Look at Me Store.
Having originated in the “stormy 60s”, like an art test of well-read American youth, punk is designed into an independent cultural phenomenon in the mid-80s. Initially brought from the United States, initially as a style in clothes, music and partly behavior, in the British islands, Punk turns into a real riot that has forever changed culture.
Another description of the actual history of punk movements with a listing of well-known names, dates and events does not make sense. It is more important to determine the cult phenomenon of the punk and evaluate its influence on modern society as a whole.
Those who still need an excursion into the history of the issue, we suggest watching the video clip Jeffrey Lewis about the evolution of punk as a musical direction:
As one of the directions in the subculture, Punk over time did not obsolete, on the contrary, the principles of freedom of expression that constituting the essence of the punk made it more viable.
In the era of post-modernism, Punk becomes universal, if not the only language, with the help of which a person who wants to express himself turns to society, the system, the world as a whole. This language is used not only by people, but, oddly enough, corporations. “Pankovsky motifs are traced in many advertising slogans of more or less successful campaigns,” Michael McLaren.
In fact, punk is everyone who seeks to do something of his own, contrary to, "not like that." Today, the shadow of punk as ideology can be observed in various fields - from art to business.
PUNK-FUSHION
The most popular trend of the 70s was a disco, glamor and excess. It is not surprising that the new direction in the fashion, which only appeared, has become the contrast of fashion for disco. Whereas she glorified the festival, the punk was against any authority. It was a strange underground style, the code by which they recognized their own.
Now, the punk fashion stamps are the last top trends: T -shirts, tattoos, jackets, narrow ties, military boots, Chuck Taylor All Stars, bleached hair, torn tights, uploaded eyes, and English pins. Historically, the castle on the neck symbolized the shackles of the state and systems that fetter the identity, and the number of pins on clothes showed how many days you did not wash or the number of girls you slept with.

It is important to remember that in the punk fashion there are many areas that have its own rules. For example, Crust -Punk is a camouflage pants, torn T -shirts with groups and broken leather vests, as well as bandages with political slogans, and often Drages. On the other side of the Horror-Punk, where the traditional punk mod is ready with fashion. Black clothes and gloomy Mayk-up, pallor of the face. This style is largely inspired by the punk group of the 80s The Misfits.

The party is held with the support of Look at Me Store . Freedom in the choice of things for oneself, independence in style, independence from the stereotypes imposed on the loud names of the stereotypes with the revolutionary spirit of the punk.

In order for our “games and dressing in punk” to be not too artificial and the mainstream should be sought by inspiration in all anger, anger and rage that modernity in which there are no new ideas, but there is only nostalgia and reflexes.
