Industrial fashion
is a form of fashion most closely associated with
the industrial music scene.
It is based on military combat uniforms, combat boots, and
some aspects of punk and BDSM fashions; the color
black predominates across all of these elements.
Partially or completely buzzed or shaved hair
is common.
Industrialites are sometimes called "rivetheads"
by goths and others; this can be derogatory, neutral,
or affectionate depending on the context and the
person being referred to. Though close to the
goth subculture, industrial fashion and music
are much less well-known. This can be attributed
to the relative obscurity of industrial music,
as compared to mainstream rock or even gothic
rock.
Cyber fashion is partially based upon industrial fashion.
