Aspies are known for having their unique styles of dress or appearance, it's actually written in the DSM. Since we typically don't conform to mainstream culture, Grunge/Punk Rock appearances make a lot of sense. Lately I've shifted to more hippie with patterned baggy pants, headband to mostly keep my long hair back, and 5-Finger leather shoes or regular boots. I stand out wherever I go, but that's not the intention. I like to dress how I feel expresses my inner being.

I am not dressed like a punk, but I am definitely into punk elements.

Music is rather interesting, and I have taken a fascination in post-grunge era.
