The outfit: a Marilyn Manson t-shirt paired with fishnets and a black faux fur coat. The year: 2006? If I backcombed my hair a bit and applied far more eyeliner than my face can pull off, you might be forgiven for thinking that these pictures came straight off my Myspace profile, but apparently this is what I’m into at the moment.
Thanks to Bieber et al it’s cool to wear your old band t-shirts these days (or buy new ones off eBay). You could update them a bit with nice trousers and some trainers, or you could pay full homage to your greebo roots and dress like you’re a teenager misguidedly hoping to actually pull Marilyn Manson (or someone in your local rock club who looks a bit like him). Jokes aside, I’ve been wearing this outfit (with sheer black tights rather than fishnets) to gigs or for nights out.
As an aside, I have been wearing a lot of (some might say too much) pvc lately, and this asos skirt (which also comes in nude) and Public Desire boots are my current lifeblood.
