AB By revisiting the subcultures that British youngsters followed throughout the second half ofthe twentieth century, principally Mods, Skins, and Casuals, this BA Dissertation searchesthe principal connections among them. Starting with influences from the decade of the 60s,and following with the next decades, the Casual subculture historically evolved from earliertribes such as Mods or Skins. The similarities among the three tribes have been shown tostem from the sociologic development of the working-class teenagers of the UnitedKingdom, attracted by the British clothing brands that were popular among the high class.Their aim was to appear well dressed and thus, unperceived by the police authorities duringthe violent clashes that frequently surrounded them. This dissertation will trace thosedevelopments to finally describe how the role of music and film, as much as football, hasbeen crucial in spreading the success of Casual fashion and clothing styles internationally.
