1983: Should you FIT IN or STAND OUT? | Scene | Vintage fashion clips | BBC Archive

Scene takes to the streets of London, to find out how youth subcultures like punks, goths, rudies, skinheads and new romantics dress to express their outsider status. Should the way they dress really elicit such negative reactions from employers, pub landlords and the more conventionally-attired members of the population? Or should we all learn to be a bit more tolerant?

This clip is from Scene: Who Are You Looking At? Originally broadcast, 27 January 1983.
