Industrial fashion
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Industrial fashion is a form of fashion most closely associated with the industrial music scene and is based on styles including punk and military combat uniform aesthetics. Typical items of clothing include combat boots, camo trousers, t-shirts, and sometimes gas masks, goggles, flight jackets, or trenchcoats, straps and buckles, spikes, the colors black and olive being most predominant. Partially or completely buzzed, shaved or undercut hair is common. Body Modification such as piercings may also be associated with the culture, as they may be disliked due to mainstream popularity. The female side of the fashion includes with the above; short skirts, lipgloss and dark eyeliner. Metallic and or Futuristic elements are often incorporated into the overall look, but isn't needed, as most "Hardcore" Rivetheads consider this "Trendy" and dub them "Cybergoths". Colorful synthetic pony falls / hair extensions and colorful vinyl are an example of "CyberGoth" wear.
People in the industrial music scene are often called "Rivetheads". Although close to the goth subculture, industrial fashion and music are much less well-known. This can be attributed to the relative obscurity of industrial music, as compared to mainstream rock or even gothic rock.
