Welcome to ThreadBanger, the first network for people who make their own fashion. Threadbanger cheerfully declares an end to Fashion dictated from on high. Live and die DIY. That’s Threadbanger’s motto. The hippest fashion trend today is not in New York, Paris, or Milan. And you won’t find it strutting down any runway. It’s in your closet, your attic, and the Thrift Shop down the street. Threadbanger brings you into the homes and hearts and souls of people like you who just can’t hack the rack. These threadheads make their own clothes, their own fashion statements.
