When punk underwent its 1980s hardcore, Oi!/streetpunk and UK82 renaissance, new fashion styles developed as parallel resurgences occurred in the United States and United Kingdom. The US scene was exemplified by bands such as Black Flag, Minor Threat, and Fear. The 1980s American scene spawned a utilitarian anti-fashion that was nonetheless raw, angry, and intimidating. In the UK, much of the punk music and fashion in the 1980s was influenced by heavy metal and the Oi! scene. However, elements of the 1970s punk look never fully died away. What many recognize as typical punk fashions today emerged from the 1980s British scene, exemplified by bands such as The Exploited, Charged GBH, and The Partisans. Some of the following clothing items were common on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean, and some were unique to certain geographic areas.

Footwear that was common in the 1980s punk scene included Dr. Martens boots, motorcycle boots and steel-toed combat boots; sometimes adorned with bandanas, chains or studded leather bands. Jeans (sometimes dirty, torn or splattered with bleach) and tartan kilts or skirts were commonly worn. Leather skirts became a popular item for female punks. Heavy chains were sometimes used as belts. Bullet belts, and studded belts (sometimes more than one worn at a time) became common.

Some punks bought T-shirts or plaid flannel shirts and wrote political slogans, band names or other punk-related phrases on them with marker pens. While this was not without precedent in the 1970s, the depth and detail of these slogans were not fully developed until the 1980s. Silkscreened T-shirts with band logos or other punk-related logos or slogans were also popular. Studded, painted and otherwise customised leather rocker jackets or denim vests became more popular during this era, as the popularity of the earlier customized blazers waned. Hair was either shaved, spiked or in a crew cut or Mohawk hairstyle. Tall mohawks and spiked hair, either bleached or in bright colors, took on a more extreme character than in the 1970s. Charged hair, in which all of one's hair stands on end but is not styled into distinct spikes, also emerged. Amongst female punks, a hairstyle similar to The Misfits' devilocks was popular. This involved shaving the entire head except for a tuft at the front. Body piercings and extensive tattoos became very popular during this era, as did spike bands and studded chokers. Sometimes bandana were worn to indicate gang affiliation. Some hardcore punk women reacted to the earlier 1970s movement's vibe by adopting an asexual style.

Current factions of the punk subculture have different clothing habits, although there's often crossover between the different subgroups, in terms of style. Punk fashion has influenced elements of many other similar fashions, most notably heavy metal fashion. One of the few elements in every form of punk fashion is a t-shirt with a band logo on it .

Punk clothing in general has always been based around an anti-fashion DIY-ethic. The term "Punk Fashion" is in fact an oxymoron. Screen-printing, stenciling and painting ones own clothes, is almost a philosophy in itself, relating to anti-commercialism of clothing, and also expression of ones views by painting them on ones shirt. An idea immortalised in the phrase "Like trousers, like brain."
Standard punk
In general, modern punks wear leather, denim, spikes, chains, and combat boots. They often wear elements of early punk and hardcore fashion, such as kutten vests , bondage pants (often plaid) and torn clothing. There is a large influence by DIY-created and modified clothing, such as ripped pants or shirts. Hair is typically dyed in bright colors such as red, blue, green, pink or orange and arranged into a mohawk or liberty spikes. Hair can be cut very short or shaved, but this does not necessarily mean the individual is a skinhead. Belts with metal studs, and bullet belts, are popular. Leather or denim jackets and vests often have patches or are painted with logos that express musical tastes or political views. Pants are usually tapered tightly. Metal spikes or studs are often added to jackets and vests.
Hardcore
There are several styles of dress within the hardcore scene, and styles have changed since the genre started as hardcore punk in the late 1970s. What is fashionable in one branch of the hardcore scene may be frowned upon in another. Clothing styles are often chosen to make moshing easier to perform. Plain working class dress and short hair (with the exception of dreadlocks) are usually associated with hardcore punk. Mute colors and minimal adornment are usually common. Some elements of hardcore clothing are baggy jeans or work pants, athletic wear, bandanas (usually worn hanging out of their back pocket), cargo or military shorts, band T-shirts, plain T-shirts, and plain hoodies. Some hardcore bands and fans wear clothing items that are similar to contemporary or old school hip hop fashion, such as baseball caps, athletic wear and shoes, necklaces, belt buckles, and clothing by athletic brands such as Nike, Adidas, Pony, and Puma. Personal comfort and the ability to mosh are highly influential in this style (Jewelry, spikes, tight clothes, flashy hair and chains are highly uncommon and discouraged in hardcore fashion.)
Anarcho-Punk
Anarcho-punk fashion is a politicised adaptation of traditional punk fashion. This all black militaristic fashion was pioneered by Crass in the United Kingdom and by T.S.O.L. in the United States. Other common features are the refusal to wear leather and the heavy use of anarchist symbols and slogans. Some whom define themselves as Anarcho-Punks may opt to wear clothing similar to traditionalist punks or crust punks, but not often to the extreme of either subculture . Leather is often replaced with imitation leather or cloth in a similar design as leather products .
Crust punk
Crust punk fashion is an extreme evolution of traditional punk fashion, and is heavily influenced by bands such as Doom, Amebix and Antisect. Typical crust punk fashion includes black or camouflage trousers or shorts covered in patches (heavy work pants are popular for their durability), torn band T-shirts or hoodies covered in patches, studded vests and jackets (commonly black denim), bullet belts, jewelry made from hemp and other natural/found objects, and sometimes bum flaps. Patches, even band patches, are often of a political nature. Patches are often screen printed at home by the individual crust punks. Clothing tends to be unwashed and unsanitary by conventional standards, and dreadlocks are popular. Crust punks sometimes sew articles of clothing with found or cheaply-bought materials. Baseball caps with patches sewn on are popular headgear. Pants are often held up with string or hemp.

Deathrock fashion
Deathrock and Horror punk fashion is similar to goth fashion. Black is the predominant color. Deathrock and horror punk incorporates a sexier image, incorporating fishnets, corsets and elaborate make-up for men and women. The use of occult and horror imagery is prevalent on T-shirts, buttons, patches and jewelery. The Misfits Fiend Skull is a common sight on articles of clothing. Other common adornments include band names painted on jackets or bleached into clothes, as well as buttons or patches indicating cities. The initials D and R (for Death Rock) may part of a crossbone logo, accompanied by other initials, such as C and A for California, N and Y for New York, or G and R for Germany. Hair may be in deathhawk style (a wider teased-out variant of the mohawk hairstyle), an angled bangs style, or in a devilock style.
Skate punk
Skate punk can refer to two very different groups. The first group refers to those who are traditional skate punks. Traditional skate punks generally take a backseat to fashion. There really isn't a consensus about certain brands that have to be worn. The basic fashion encompasses clothing related to skateboarding or punk culture. They commonly have shaggy or short hair. Baseball caps and trucker hats are common, often with punk band logos or skate companies. They wear tattered, torn jeans or shorts and a spike thimp belt and usually disregard cleanliness. The other group commonly referred to as being skate punk is an almost complete opposite of the former and borders on being the same as pop punk. Generally, they are very clean cut and wear straight leg or baggy/sagging jeans. They often wear hoodies with various logos. They also often wear loose ties. All skate punk groups tend to wear skate shoes such as those made by Vans, Adio, Etnies, Circa, Emerica and Fallen.
Pop punk
Pop punk fashion sometimes overlaps with skater punk fashion and emo fashion. Contemporary pop punk fans often wear items such as band T-shirts with, tie or scarf; blazers; Dickies pants, baggy pants, jeans or shorts; studded belts; Converse All-Stars or skateboarder shoes. Popular patterns include check and arms. Hair is usually long and up for women, and short and spiky for men — and is often dyed black, platinum blonde, or natural hair colors with unnatural streaks. The fauxhawk is quite common. This fashion is influenced mostly by bands such as blink-182, Good Charlotte, Zebrahead,and Green Day. The clothing store Hot Topic has become the one stop shop for pop punk clothing.
Obscure trends
Some punks dress similarly to the droogs in the film A Clockwork Orange. This involves white boiler suits, bowler hats, black Dr. Martens or combat boots, suspenders and sometimes black eye makeup (on one eye only). This look has been displayed by bands such as The Adicts and Lower Class Brats, The Violators and Major Accident. An item associated with the Suicidals scene (influenced by the California band Suicidal Tendencies) is a baseball cap or trucker hat with the bill upturned, and with text written or painted on it. Suicidals (and some individuals in the later hardcore scene) also wear other styles associated with the Cholo gang member look. This involves bandanas on one's head, Converse sneakers and plaid flannel shirts. This style sometimes includes a shaven head.
Commercialization
Punk fashion has been extremely commercialized at various times, and many well-established fashion designers — such as Vivienne Westwood and Jean Paul Gaultier — have used punk elements in their production. Punk clothing, which was initially handmade, became mass produced and sold in record stores and some smaller specialty clothing stores by the 1980s. By the late 1990s, the American chain store Hot Topic established a niche in selling what they advertised as "punk style clothing" at shopping malls. Many fashion magazines and other glamor-oriented media have featured classic punk hairstyles and punk-influenced clothing. These have caused controversy, as many punks view it as having sold out; those wearing such clothes are often not considered real punks, although they are commonly accepted in pop punk and skatepunk circles.
