Front Cover Costume 2

The other side of the 'Indie' Image is heavily focused on vintage fashion, and respecting the icons of yesteryear. Such as Jimmy Hendrix, The Beatles, Madonna...etc, artists that have been hailed as music legends. As artists in the indie genre look up to these people in their music, this is also reflected in their clothing. This is another angle that I can possition my magazine from, to relate to my readers. I have chosen the blazer, as this is normally associated to busniness men/women and by bringing this into a music magazine, inverts that stereotype. The two choices of t-shirts again shows the desire to be included in the music, or respecting great artists from the 80's. The tights are used to soften the image, and keep it femine despite the masculine blazer and brogues. As indie girls want to show that masculine items can apply to them,but want to display a pretty, feminity at the same time. Furthermore, the choice of hairstyle is simple and natural, showing that the indie genre, values natural beuty.
