DIY fashionAs a teenager I went to the Venice Carnival. I made a mask out of a paper plate, got a metal coathanger and bent it into horns around my head and draped a black tshirt over that. At the time I thought I looked really cool, but thinking it over...
Tell us about your own oh-so-cool fashion innovations.

Punky...A couple of years ago, the local ale house was having a fancy-dress new years party. Undecided on whether or not to go in fancy dress or not, I eventually decided that I would, in home made punk regalia. I took a tatty old black T-shirt and set to the hems with pinking shears to make it look spiky. Before proceeding to paint the back of the shirt with 'THE CLASH' on their trademark orangey-red star.
After doing so, I tore bits of it stuck a shite-load of safety pins in to make it look 'authentic'. This was followed by setting about an old pair of school trousers and making them dead tight, I could barely get my size five feet (they have since grown) past the knees, let alone the bottom. Then I stuck another load of safety pins in them, whilst wearing them, because I couldn't take them off.
Then I stuck green food-colouring in my hair and made sort-of mowhawk.
Welcome to spacktard city.
I still keep the shirt though.
