Dangerfield

Dangerfield has a couple different stores around the Sydney area. While they are all created pretty much equal, I do prefer the Oxford Street Bondi Junction location. Why? The selection is large and the staff is helpful.
I popped in the other day as I was killing time and had a nice little chat with the girl behind the counter as I was trying on rings. They have a lot of those big ones that go on multiple fingers at once. Roses, guns, skulls… and the like.
The clothing certainly caters to a certain «type.» Punk, emo, goth, or rockabilly peeps will have a field day in here. But not exclusively. I enjoy the accessories immensely and I don’t really fall into any of those categories. One doesn’t need to be totally punk rock to rock a polka dotted scarf or a pair of studded earrings.
If you’re looking for a swing dress, they have the same style over and over again in different colors and prints. Most are A-​line and fit for sitting on an old Thunderbird, wearing bright red lipstick and drinking a malted milkshake. The dresses are all around $ 80, which feels steep for the quality, so I usually steer myself away.

Dangerfield is my boyfriend. Just FYI. That’s how much I love it.
It’s just FULL of dark, humourous, eclectic stuff. You used to get a lot of Emily Strange merchandise here, but I’m not sure how true that is anymore.
I do know that you can find ties with skulls on them, bold striped socks, stockings with weird patterns, shirts with funny internet memes printed on them, awesome satchels, and all kinds of other clothes. Jackets, pants, skirts, dresses, hats… they have some truly great hats.
And it changes from week to week, so you’ll always have something new and exciting to look forward to!

I don’t know about Dangerfield, I assume it is a good hang out for Emos, but clothing wise it does cater to a wider crowd than that. I called into the Bondi Junction store to have a look see.
The problem is although they often have some clothes, which I like, for the level of quality they offer their clothes are way overpriced. I look after my clothes and if I buy something I like then I want it to last. Whenever I go to Dangerfield I think to myself why bother as I am only setting myself up for disappointment. Many of the clothes they sell, seem to be virtually disposable and if they were really cheap I would be okay with this, but that is not the case.
What they do have going for them is accessories, which are here, there and everywhere throughout the shop, and some of them are really cool and more enticing than the clothes, So I would be more inclined to shop there for something to accompany my outfit rather than the outfit itself.
