The various youth cultures are identified by the clothes they wear and how they dress, as a precursor of music they like and they like to spend time, these various sub-cultures, obviously, tend to favor clothing designers very different, and some designers are synonyms associated with a particular group.
So, what do you get really says a lot about who you are, and it makes your clothes can also be indicative of the deepest parts of his personality and values.
Here is a list of some popular cultures past and present, and the designers that they are associated.
1. Punk - If any designer is associated with Punk, Vivienne Westwood has to be. In the seventies and Malcolm McLaren, had a shop on Kings Road in London, where it is said, Punk began. The store called SEX (controversial at the moment); and then designed, manufactured and sold the clothes that become in essence, Punk clothing, copied around the world. McLaren after meeting with Sid Vicious and John Lydon at the store created and managed probably the most famous punk band of all time the Sex Pistols.
2. Mod - The decade of the 50's to mid 60's saw the rise and rise of the mod subculture, after which, like most youth subcultures, the Ministry of Defence dissimilation in the early skinheads (not the troubled racial ). Mod fashion was synonymous with elegant Italian-inspired costumes worn underneath Parka layer of the same name, while riding the moped. Women wore miniskirts, again, strong and chicly. Designers, who to this day are associated with the MOD and Ben Sherman Fred Perry, and for women, Biba, to a lesser extent.
3. Romantic - The New Romantic subculture was a movement of 80, in which his followers dressed androgynously, boys and girls wore make-up had short hair, if desired. Provided it was nothing fancy for a new romance. Derived Punk and Disco, 80's new romantic movement was a creative and artistic subgroup RBIs. New Romantics will always be linked with the designer John Galliano, the graduate program of the Central Saint Martin in 1984 consisted of eight unisex outfit called Les Incyyyroyables, and were a perfect example of the New Romantic style.
There are more sub-cultures so many young people over time associated with the designers, and clothing styles, music tastes and different past. Today there are still many sub-cultures associated with their brand of style, like Emo and Goths, and the B-Boys Hip Hop Culture.
However, more than ever seems to be a sub dominant culture in the youth of today. Obsessed with fame and fortune and more influenced by the media than any other youth culture against them. These, called Generation Y'ers are crazy for any designer clothing label, are in favor of pop throwaway cheap and poorly produced cover versions. Taking into account the impact on society, art, music and fashion subcultures of young people have had in the past, this seems a shame, and it looks like a bland and boring future for the children of the nation.
