Why do people confuse Punk with fashion?!
Question:
Why do people confuse Punk with fashion?
Back in the day nobody designed punk clothes except
Mc Claren & Westwood... they made clothes for rockers and even that stopped...
punk clothes came out of the necessity to not be part of the mainstream.....you made your own clothes or t shirts and you wore sh*t til it wore out...then you taped it pinned it etc.....

Answers:
Sorry, punk can also be fashion. I get the point you are trying to make but places like Hot Topic do continue to thrive even with this contradiction.
