I dunno - I wouldn't rate the hair bands as a group. The New Romantics, otoh were straight dandy. So to speak.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
For England, it's a little different: Dandy-->Teddy Boy-->Metrosexual. Or maybe Dandy-->Teddy Boy-->Glam-->Metrosexual.

just in terms of high maintenance.

Teddy boy stuff: [link]
Hair was cut into an outlandish DA (Duck's Ass), long jackets were juxtaposed with thin, bootlace ties, stovepipe pants were cut short to show off patterned socks - and the look was completed with suede brothel creepers or winkle-pickers.
What the heck are "brothel creepers"? "Winkle-Pickers"? Do I need them?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

If you have to ask, yah, probably...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I confess that when I say "hair band," I really mean Poison. Because I luuuuv them.
Do I need them?
Do you aspire to be a teddy boy?

I think maybe I do need them.
Of course, I'd have to figure out an outfit to wear with them.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I have no idea what brothel creepers are, but I'm pretty sure that winkle pickers are super-pointy shoes.
Yup: men's winkle pickers, though if you google there are way, way pointier versions around.
