Potential clothing ideas

skinny jeans

Within the indie music genre, fashion plays a huge part on the way the band are represented. The reason i have chosen skinny jeans is the fact that bthe band wear this type of clothing anyway so its just continuing their own fashion sense. Also that is what alot of the other indie bands wear, so im just following this rule so that they look like they are following the fashion and not standing out to be individual.



Pumps





 

I think the band should wear pump like shoes, as pumops are quite informal but would put across this kind of relaxed scruffy kinda look. I dont want them to look like uperclass snobs, i would prefer that they looked a bit messy and untidy, as that is the way indie bands tend to be portrayed and represented in their videos.



Polo tops



Similar with the pumps, polo tops arent very formal and can look scruffy which is continuing the look i would like to go for. In a sense it is kind of a dirty look as similar bands play endless gigs on long tours and chances are they wont have packed much clothes and living the party lifestyle. So by wearing unironed polo tops o shirts, with dirty pumps and tight scruffy skinny jeans, portrays the band in this kind of way, and this is just following the rule similar bands tend to do.

This would relate to the audience in a sense that they arent a upper class band and by wearing ordinary clothes from the highstreet it relates to the younger audience who wear similar clothes. And with indie music on the male side of the audience they would wear similar clothes just maybe wear it in a different way. So just by the fashion itself it can relate to the audience in a more natural down to earth way as they arent to fussed as to what they look like and thats what alot of people are like, they dont care for other peoples opinons.
