The scene style is retro in nature. It is not all about just the clothing and jewelry. It is a subculture that is based on styles from the past. It is a mixture of the mods from the 60s, the Stargust Kids form the 70s, and the Punk New Wave crowd from the 80s.

Music plays a big role in the scene style. It is the foundation of the scene style. It is what sets them apart from other subcultures. They love listening to sudo-punk, and even the new wave style of music. Besides the clothing, the hair is what makes it easy to pick out a scene kid. The hair is usually choppy, black and fluffy on top.

The clothing for the scene style consists of more vintage items such as vintage sunglasses, retro patterned pants, very tight fitting jeans, tee shirts advertising obscure bands. They don’t try to follow the current fashion, they seem to alter and combine fashion statements from the past. They also love to wear thick makeup ( even the scene boys ). The eyeliner is usually purplish and blue in color. The color of eye shadow is always super black.

The scene style dictates that the hair attract lots of attention from outsiders. When a group of scene kids show up at the local concert, they are easy to pick out because of the big hair. They stay together during concerts and strangers see them as anti-social but they are very social in nature. The scene style is still evolving and it is here to stay.

The scene clothing style is almost the same for the scene boy or the scene girl. It is not uncommon to see scene kids incorporating leopard or even zebra-like stripes  into their pants or shirts. The scene clothes style is quite diverse.

The scene clothing style for scene guys can consist of skin-tight jeans ( almost the painted-on look ). Scene boys have been known to wear girl jeans since they have the tightest fit possible. Tiny tee shirts advertising bands that no one has heard of and lots of tangling jewelry. It is a no-no in the scene style to wear jeans that are larger at the bottom like the jeans from the 70s. Straight-legged jeans is the way to go.
