About Scene Aesthetics

 

This page is under construction! What is scene? I'm glad you asked! 

 

"Scene" is an aesthetic that grew out of the emo scene back in the mid 2000s, starting to take off around 2004, and eventually waning in popularity by the early 2010s. (All of the former scene kids kind of morphed into early 2010s Tumblr hipsters. I know because tbh, I was kind of one of them, lol!)

 

Scene blends punk-derived emo aesthetics with a tinge of preppy vibes, with tons of pink and glitter and sparkles, but also chains, studs, and skulls. 

 

Some of the key elements of scene style include:

• Bright neon colors with black
• Bright colored hair
• Striped or leopard print "coontail " hair extensions
• Dark, dramatic eye makeup with lots of black eyeliner
• Brightly colored eyeshadow
• Skinny jeans
• Miniskirts
• Fishnets
• Patterned tights and stockings
• Converse
• Colorful heels
• Lots of hot pink!
• Hello Kitty merch and apparel
• Jet black or platinum blond hair (often with streaks or sections in bright colors!)
• Short, voluminous hairstyles, with longer extensions in the front and shorter in the back
• Invader Zim
• Alice in Wonderland
• Hot Topic
• Graphic tees
• Band shirts for emo bands
• Emo, screamo, and crunkcore music
