Cool geeks

The definition of a geek is, “A person who is single-minded or accomplished in scientific or technical pursuits but is felt to be socially inept.”

It’s also a contagious trend which is easy to create. The beauty about this look is that you don’t need to put too much effort into it. A few statement accessory pieces teamed with your imagination will do the trick.

The ‘geeks’ are characterised as being clueless about fashion and for their hate towards designer, high-end fashion pieces. But now their geek-chic unique image has gradually crept into the world of fashion.

Geeks, nerds & dweebs are stereotyped as those who have a very distinctive, signature look. Geeks represent a culture of all things “un-cool.” They wear braces with their trousers, have plasters taped around their thick rimmed glasses and have their shirts tucked into their jack-up trousers…just think of Napoleon Dynamite. Over time, this trend has become a phenomenon in the fashion world; anyone can bring out their inner geek.

Flashback...

Material Girl...

The chameleon of fashion herself, the ever-changing queen of pop, Madonna, is THE style icon of the 80’s. She has definitely influenced the face of fashion, past & present.

Leggings, messy chic hairstyles lace, chunky statement jewellery, blazers and oversized jumpers have come full circle back into the world of fashion. Teenage girls back in the 80’s wanted to follow in Madonna’s fashionable footsteps, now it’s their daughters, their “Material Girl’s” who are still trying to re-create the 80’s look.

This trend will never grow old.
