Cyberpunk fashion

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

Cyberpunk fashion is a modern fashion movement, seen mostly in underground nightclubs. It combines aspects of Industrial fashion, Gothic fashion, and BDSM fashion with post modern computer components, such as wiring a electronics. It is not unusual to see a cyberpunk wearing circuit board jewlery. Hair is usually wire-like, and stacked upward. Some goths have come to calling cyberpunks 'pineapple-heads', because of this unusual hairstyle.

In the United Kingdom this is better known as cybergoth, and is tied into the EBM side of the goth scene. Cyberdog, a clothing shop in Camden Market, London, is probably the best-known exponent of this look in the region.

Cyberprep fashion is a derogatory term used to refer to yuppie trends that reflect the flip side of cyberpunk fashion.
