Every dubstep event I go to there are tons of different fashion styles going on, so I wouldn't say there is a particular one.
I just wear jeans, t-shirt, and some Nikes. Sometimes I'll wear a hoody outside... but it gets way too hot wearing those into clubs and shit

is that one of those sleeping bag suits? I wrote to the company who makes them, advising them to install a 'poop flap' in their suits, however i made the mistake of sending it on the 1st April, so they didn't take it seriously, never got a responsejsilver wrote:

there's definitely a whole range of different styles on display a dubstep raves, but tbh the majority of people are kitted out in jeans, t-shirts and a hoodie thrown in for good measure, though in no particular styleSamuel Sifter wrote:Every dubstep event I go to there are tons of different fashion styles going on, so I wouldn't say there is a particular one.

interesting views.
Funny really, as coming from Jersey (UK) its hard to know where people are at, as in my opinion, Jersey has its own fashion (mostly).
As there is not that much variety in the shops.
I am pleased that there isn't that much emphasis on fashion, as i really hated it when the old school rave scene turned into "style" guru's.
I used to go to the original raves, (just around the end of acid house in 90/91) and at the start, people didn't really give a shit what people wore.
Everyone just went to raves to have a laugh, and get loaded.
People wore daft jeans, Fila shoes and mad t-shirts.
That was about it. Then came along the baggy jeans that the Stone Roses wore which were pretty cool. Apparently the stone roses made a fortune from the jeans company who paid them to market the jeans as they had an excess of jean material.
Then the scene got really commercial and the rave scene Fashion started really to kick off, and the clubs stopped people coming in unless people wore the right smart casual clothes.
Which I hated. You had to wear proper shoes, which made you look like you were on the way to work and were shit for dancing in if you wanted to dance all night, and you had to wear smart trousers or posh jeans and top designer tops, or you wouldn't get in.
I am also pleased that the scene isn't overly chav, as i think those shell suits don't do anybody any favors,
think they should be made illegal unless you are wearing them to play sport.
I lived in Liverpool for 3 years, which is the shell suit capital of the world,
and as much as I liked some of the people who wore them (such as my Thai boxing teacher, who was really nice),
i thought the shell suits made them look daft or unintelligent.
(No offense meant, just an opinion, so please don't hate me for saying this).
A lot of the people on the DnB scene in Jersey copy their favorite DJ's dress sense, and as many of the top DJ's come from inner city places such as boroughs in London, and other big cities, many of them wear sport tracksuits because thats what everyone else does from their area, especially people who are into the football scene. (which i'm not into but not against).
They also wear their bling (gold chains) as a big status thing too, and the usual wanna be Gangster ethos goes with it, which is a shame, as a lot of the gangster "dog eat dog" philosophy is really damaging to individuals, sub cultures and society.
The whole Gangster thing isn't my cup of tea. I have seen too much suffering in my life to know that the Gangster life is a bad way to go, for the gangsters included.
I know loads of people who have been to prison, who have come out completely messed up and who struggle to get their head back together.
Really sad. They most often end up with bad drink or drug problems, which often ends up in their own demise.
This kind of thing not only messes up their own heads, but also messes up all their mates and families heads.
I know loads of parents who are heart broken because they have lost their children this way.
I also know a load of kids who have to live without one or more of their parents which is really really sad.
Anyway,
back to the clothes.
Jersey has also a big surf scene, so has quite a few surf shops.
I don't surf (although my brother did when he was alive) but i do wear some of the surf clothes such as baggy jeans, baggy cords, nice well made comfy trainers, well designed under stated long sleeve shirts made by surf brands like rusty, o'neil etc, and long sleeve t-shirts
(i have to wear baggy trousers as my legs are pretty thick set, and normal cut jeans just don't fit).
I also quite like black combat trousers and black us army style coat, as there pretty comfortable, cheap and hard wearing, and they blend you into the background (urban ninja style, not because I'm up to badness, but because everyone else is! sometimes including the Police!).
I also quite like well designed surf brand hawaiian shirts (only the really well designed, understated minimal ones though).
However, you cant wear these in some cities. For example, I wore one of my favorite shirts one day in liverpool.
It was an o'neil short sleeved surf shirt, black, with a black fern pattern on it.
If you wore it in Jersey, no one would blink an eye.
I wore it around my sister in laws parents house, and her father almost spat his food out. He thought it was a woman's shirt.
There just not used to the style in liverpool.
Now, if I had been wearing a cheap shell suit and a pair of dodgy white trainers and white socks, he wouldn't have blinked an eye.
Well, i guess we both had culture shocks.
Not to say that either of us is right of course, as i guess in the ultimate meaning behind all things, clothes are just that. A way of covering ourselves in order to stop us from getting cold.
Also,
Thats about it really.
i am pleased there isn't a great deal of fashion fascism involved,
as i don't like forced conformity (elitism), however, quite like people to not look like thugs or Gangsters (unless you are a thug or a gangster).
I Just like people to be who they really are, and stop playing fantasy role play in real life.

that sounds like someone I know from Jersey (UK). Maybe not, perhaps someone similar. If it is, thats just how he is. He's on a different wave length to most. And he has his own way of doing things, which I am cool with, as long as he doesn't mess any one up or take the mick too much.
He's a lot older than the average dubstep producer, and follows strange logic. I think his dress sense is based on old sci fi's movies and films. Like Mad Max or something.
Personally, don't like hats much, unless I am somewhere where you have to have them. like the antartic or the desert.
For this.
I quite like the idea of a full face balaclavia, however, I don't wear one normally as I know it would look pretty nuts, and certainly intimidating to some. haha.
Especially if your wearing all black combats, and black US Army jacket, cut resistance gloves and mat black trainers... perhaps army jacket with a kevlar inner.
However, think not many people would complain in the antartic or the desert...
The cut proof stuff may sounds pretty nuts, however, too many people have died due to stabbings in the UK. Even 1 is 1 too many!
I certainly don't want to be the next victim. I don't want anyone to be the next victim!

stab proof hoodies
http://www.blackhawk.com/product/SOLAG- ... 9,1359.htm
knife proof glooves
not cheap, however, if you are in danger then perhaps worth the investment.
You don't have to be Batman to wear stab proof clothing!
And these products look pretty cool too.
http://www.bladerunner.tv/covert-black- ... p-801.html
I particularly like this one. Very Sam Fisher....
Think that some of these companies also sell bullet proof body armor too.
If you live in a country where gun crime is high.
I am lucky that there is very little gun crime in Jersey (UK).
In fact, I think that the last time someone pulled a gun on someone, was some daft 16 year old kid who pulled a 2/2 air rifle on someone.
The Jersey police went nuts (as usual), which I guess is relatively understandable, as you can do some damage with such a device if you know what your doing.
I think, eventually the 50 odd Jersey SWAT police men (estimate) and several heavily armored vehicles eventually subdued the single 16 year old assailant after much hard work and tremendous courage.
Lucky, as I think the young lad may have almost poked some one in the eye with the end of the rifle....
(only an estimate regarding figures by the way, please don't sue me).
Lucky though, as had there been more than one 16 year old,
the Police may have had to request for local TA reinforcements, which would surely have resulted in severe casualties (although, most probably due to friendly fire...)
Shucks, thats Jersey eh?!!
