Scene (subculture)


The scene subculture is a contemporary subculture which has been common in the United States, Europe, Asia, and Latin America from the mid 2000s until the early 2010s. People (most often in their teens to 20s) involved in this style are called "scene people," "scene kids," "trendies" or sometimes "scenesters" in the United States, "moshers," "chavmos," "chemos", or "alternateens" in the UK, "coloridos" in Latin America, and "shamate" (Simplified: 杀马特) in China.

The scene subculture began in United Kingdom during the late 1990s and early 2000s when some members of the chav subculture began to experiment with alternative fashion, and took fashionable characteristics of indie pop, emo, rave music, and punk fashions. The fashion originally included typical pop punk and skater clothing like tripp pants, stripes, tartan, spiky hair, Chucks, Vans, and trucker hats derived from grunge and skate punk fashion. Older punks, goths and skaters, however, looked down on these young trendies (as they were then called) for their inauthenticity and inability to skate.

Due to the internet, especially fashion, hair and makeup tutorials on YouTube and MySpace, scene fashion had spread to America and Australia by the mid-2000s. Notable trendsetters included singer Jeffree Star, Kiki Kannibal from Florida, and Arizona resident Corey Pattakos. Typical clothing of this period included miniskirts, striped tights, hoodies, androgynous hairstyles and skinny jeans. Before 2005, these outfits were in predominantly darker colors like black or grey, but accented with the occasional brightly colored garment.
