They will wear deliberately offensive t-shirts in hope to make a statement. They also wear leather studded jackets, Dr. Martens boots and scruffy tartan trousers or jeans. Punks take the extreme of their hair to high levels with them usually have massive spiked mohawks and brightly coloured hair. Women and men typically dress the same. The sex pistols and The Clash were massive within the Punk Rock music scene. Vivienne Westwood is also very famous for her punk fashion.
