A Youth style that embodies the fabulousness of the past, almost victorian aristocracy. Aristo Punk is a style that takes the aristocracy's fanciness and fine clothing with
punk's stereotypically rude mannerisms and unconventional clothes and ideals. Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of Anthony Burgess's novel 'A Clockwork Orange' greatly influenced Aristo
Punk. Especially the lead Alexander Burgess. They wear mainly luxury fabrics. And the dress must have's are:
Cane/Walking Stick
Top
Hat or Bowler/Derby
Hat
Bowties & dress-shirt
Suspenders
Patches, paint-splatter, or fake blood
Overcoat
And extravagant right eye make-up.
They also study fine arts..and are superfans of classical
music..all Aristo Punks share a love of Beethoven (Ludwig Van), but the more true to the style Aristo's say that although Beethoven is God...it's important to have a wide varied love of composers, and fine art, the work that best represents Aristo Punk is that of
Liverpool born Ged
Quinn. Aristo's talk to other Aristo's in a language called Nadsat, (
Russian for
teenager) they study The Bible, and although they do not practice it anymore for it is illegal...they pretend to be involved in ultra violence.
Aristo
punk's are also known for being cynical and careless. They also have a distaste for the authority and other punks that are reckless in every thing they do.
They also tend to call everyone by their first name excluding authority, to show rudeness.
Example of Aristo
Punk speech:
Where a normal person would say (NP):
'Ah! Man, I've got a banging headache' an Aristo
Punk would say (AP):
'Oh, my dear droogs (
friends), I've a rather intolerable pain in the gulliver (head)'
(NP)'Hey I went to the movies, it was rockin' the film was great loads of blood everywhere!'
(AP)'Hi, Hi, Hi there, I went to the cine and the film I viddied (saw) was real horrorshow (Good) buckets of the great red kroovy everywhere in extraordinary amounts!'
(There are plenty of examples but they are just a couple)
A great way to see examples of Aristo punks is to watch/read A Clockwork Orange. The main character in particular.
The
punk band every Aristo
punk should like are The Adicts although they are very popular and a true Aristo punk
will take pride in being fans of obscure artists.
