Costume Planning




This tee shirt is one example of the costume of the rock genre- the studded logo an example of the D.I.Y punk ethic of clothing. The logo itself can be seen to represent sexual debauchery and attitude, the band 'The Rolling Stones' infamous for excessive events; taking the life of former guitarist Brian Jones at the young age of 27.

The jeans are skinny fit, a common costume for the rock n roll genre; like the shirt the skinny fit represents sexual debauchery and audacity alongside emphasising the common poor background of punk ethic with their small size- revealing the inability to buy jeans that fit.

The shoes are scruffy and dirty, representing the little care for appearance and hygiene from those who influenced our planning; the brand Chuck Taylor Converse is very popular amongst rockers and fans of the genre- one example being American rock star Kurt Cobain who was rarely seen without them on.
