This is a question DIY fashion

As 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.

This is a QotW answer So it's not exactly my story.
But there are many posts on here about the terrible, unforgivable "trends" started by wannabe gangster kids.

Of course, everyone's seen the classics:

- 1 trouserleg tucked in to socks
- Trousers pulled down over bum cheeks
- Baseball caps done up so tightly that they just perch on the head, looking as if they;re going to blow away.

Living in "The Hood" in Hackney, i get to see the new ones, as they come out. Here are a few of my faves:

- Afro comb stuck into your hair, sticking out at a jaunty angle.
- Price tag left on all your clothes. Looks particularly good with baseball caps.
- T-shirt with one arm on, one side pulled up over the opposite shoulder.
- Du-rag worn sideways, covering one side of head.

It's hard not to laugh openly at them.
