'GRUNGE'
Clothing commonly worn by grunge musicians in Washington consisted of thrift store items and the typical outdoor clothing (most notably flannel shirts) of the region, as well as a general unkempt appearance. The style did not evolve out of a conscious attempt to create an appealing fashion.This clothing is cheap, it's durable, and it's kind of timeless. It also runs against the grain of the whole flashy aesthetic that existed in the 80's.

A BASIC connotation of what it is to be grunge, in my opinion grunge is more than a way of dressing, its more about an attitude, an aura even. You can rip your clothes, dress cheapily, messily and throw on as many layers as you like but we still recognise who it comes to naturally and who's tried extra hard, its an art really.
