…there is quite a bigger and more lively mod scene in my city than I would have thought. End of January, there is another of those club nights with a special collection of 60’s music from the mod area. And: In the announcement it says that they would appreciate sharply dressed people.
you don’t have to tell me twice to dress up in a sharp way, but how to?
I couldn’t really find a pattern for a mod girl’s dresscode, besides of mini dresses, maybe. but in which shape? which shoes? what to do with my hair?of course I won’t deviate from wearing black, nor I won’t cut my hair, but apart from that, I’m open for suggestions!
what would you guys and girls wear???
I don’t know if Mod and Ska fit in the same category–but I’d say Ruby Red lipstick and a Scottish cap–not to oversimplify–but that’s what comes to mind with Mod-wear for me… duck shoes, bowling shoes or Doc’s… pffff… don’t know… BTW, you do look hot in your photo
I always thought the mod look in the `80s was dress in black
A girl in my grade 8 class had the coolest mod look:usually always in ripped black clothes,heavy on the eye makeup,and the first day of school she had a fake parrot on her shoulder
everytime I hear Theresa`s Sound World by Sonic Youth I think of her.She was a really nice person too Sounds like a cool time
I’m thinking Emma Peel or Nancy Sinatra for the look. Knee high tight boots with mini dress/skirt, heres a couple links for research. I think the hair on the top left of the 1st link would be great on you…
