There's two clothing shops, and they advertise in the gay publications. They aren't quite fashionable. Maybe they are thinking that the high price will make us buy?

Hoodies, tracksuits and Burberry caps?

Yup, with Union Jacks on some of them, so you can *tell*.

What's even more surprising, is that I was walking past one of the most fashion forward queershops in town just the other day, and their entire window was full of chavstuff. So I was wrong, it IS fashionable here, or will be soon.

Interestingly, you don't get (openly) gay chavs in Britain. Not that I've come across, anyway.

Chav-style is quite popular in some gay clubs though, presumably in an 'ironic' sort of way.

Ah. I don't frequent clubs. Except the occasional poetry club.

Some of the stuff I am seeing is pure synthetic. No way are you going to dance (on E) all night in this stuff without some serious sloshy sweatily suffering. What we all must do for beauty...
