TREND INFO: It seems like everyone is casually dropping the word ‘scene’ into
convos these days. From ‘Barber,  I’d like my hair to be given a scene cut today plz’ to ‘OMG that party/boy/girl/antelope was way too sceney’, the word has become something of a catch-all term to describe certain general characteristics.
The concept of being ‘scene’ was developed through an evolution in scenester-ism which birthed a generation who didn’t require a specific cultural backdrop or musical movement against which to define themselves.
This group has no specific allegiance or loyalty. Instead they wholeheartedly embrace the transient essence of trends, fashions and musical movements, the ruling principle of anything ‘scene’ being ‘cool for cool’s sake’.

How to Work The Look:
Since trends are in a constant state of flux it’s difficult to pin down one clearly defineable ‘scene’ look. Previously emo-esque chopped and feathered myspazz hair cuts were de rigeur for any self respecting scene kid, along with uber skinny jeans and checked shirts.
These days however you’re far more likely to find them dipped head to toe in the ethically sound, pseudo sportswear garmz of a certain US clothing company (whose initials are the same the biggest automobile recovery service that isn’t the RAC). Being scene isn’t just an aesthetic tho, it’s also a state of mind.
Plz note:  As with terms like hipster or fashionista it’s important to remember that anybody or anything who readily befits the definition wouldn’t be ‘scene’ dead describing themselves as such!

Lifespan:  The ‘scene’ aesthetic seems to be infiltrating the mainstream at a rate of knots, and can therefore only sustain itself as a byword for alternative subculture for so long before something else takes its place!
