T-shirt
This tie dyed black t-shirt incorporates a studded leather collar and shoulder straps with metal rings.
Studded leather collars were originally part of fetish and bondage gear but became associated with punk. S&M clothing was sold in Vivienne Westwood's and Malcolm McLaren's shop SEX (1974-76) on 430 Kings Road. Westwood's 1976 Bondage collection included clothes made in black leather and rubber, which included buckles, straps, studs and chains.
