Emo Today
Emo is considered as a genre of music that has its roots in hardcore punk. This experimental form of music, which started as a mild movement during the mid-1980s has gone on to define a whole new category of associated fashion.
In today’s world, emo is considered as a style statement. However, it is not clear whether this contemporary fashion has emerged from the image of its original forefathers. In recent times the term ‘emo’ has been stereotyped with tight jeans on both males and females, long straight hair, brushed towards one side of the face and often covering either one eye or even both the eye in some cases. They are also categorized with tight t-shirts, which have the names of different emo bands imprinted on it. The studded belts, canvas sneakers, belt-buckles or even worn out shoes define their appearance. They are sometimes even seen with horn-rimmed spectacles. The earlier emo fashion has undergone a significant change, which included unparted hair, buttoned-down shirts, and tight–fitted sweaters or even work jacket.
Nowadays the popular media has stereotyped emo being emotional and sensitive. Their shy and introverted nature is thought to be the result of an internal angst, which keeps them in a state of continued depression, self-injury and suicidal tendencies. Anti-emo criticisms, which is quite prevalent nowadays, has led to surprising incident where emo teenagers were beaten up in the Mexico city in the earlier part of the year 2008. Some of the popular emo brands include Emo Adeline, Rockett and Heartcore clothing.
