Students have being known for many things but their sense of style has never top of the list.... Student fashion faux pars have included - tank tops, dungarees, anything tie-dyed, beavis and butthead T-shirts and Jesus sandals.
However a new breed of generation X students are bringing fashion to the for-front. Their attitude is "just because we are students doesn't mean we have to look bad". They have shrugged off the scruffy image they were once famous for and adopted a new urban cool image. The idea is not to impersonate celebrities and or to look grown up, its the total opposite.
They are trying to be individualistic and to create a student culture that has been absent in style and substance since the 70s, however this time there is no political message, today's students are using fashion to achieve their aims.
Students are notoriously broke, and so they cannot rely on expensive designer labels to look good but instead favor street brands such as Punkyfish, high street shop H&M, and trainers by Converse.
It seems that if you are into fashion there has never been a better time to be student.
