70's punk dress was a lot to do with being yourself. They had safety pins in there clothes not cos it looks cool but cos they were poor as **** and couldnt afford new clothes so they held them together with pins.

Today poeple tend to wear stuff that fits into a stereo type of punk clothing. The point of being yourself is lost and has been taken over by the want to look trendy and cool.

"The moment punks adopted a uniform image they ruined it for themselves. The whole thing was about being yourself."
