What is your opinion on the punk trend and do you think it's prominent in Athens?
“I like it but I also prefer soft grunge. I think it’s semi prominent in Athens. Some people try to pull it off.” - Allie Duke
“I don’t like it and I think it sends an immature image. I don’t think tattoos send that image though because they are artistic. And I think it’s prominent in Athens” - Alex Iscaro
"I was into a few years ago but there is definitely a resurgence now. I think it exists in Athens because it is a city that is influenced by its music scene. " - Lindy Menefee
"I don't particularly like the trend but I do see a few people in Athens try to pull it off. I don't see it featured in the downtown Athens shopping center." - Emily Potts, student at SLC
"Punk is not my personal style but I do think certain people can really pull off the look without looking like a anarchist. I see punk trends more in cities like Atlanta not Athens." - Taylor Farr, student at SLC
"I personally like how the punk trend is laid back and easy to pull off but at the same times it still looks chic. Heery's has just started carrying more of Rebecca Taylor's fall and winter collection and I would say it is definitely geared more toward the punk look. The store is definitely starting to carry more darker leathers and colors." - Morgan Salmon, Heery's Sales Associate
