A conservative estimate would put it that I cannot wear about 99 per cent of clothing in Dangerfield. This can be attributed to both the existence of a girlswear section and the fact that 16 year olds will look best and fit best in the majority of Dangerfield’s boys wear. Despite this, they do occasionally turn out some decent items for regular sized dudes, including a Lee Marvin in The Dirty Dozen jacket which I have shlepped around for the past two winters, some red and white swimming trunks which lasted two summers, and a selection of t-shirts featuring Bill Murray, Prince, and John Belushi. Pretty much everyone relevant in the 1980s. I don’t know anyone who could make a whole wardrobe out of Dangerfield, but you would surprised at the little items you can find in here. A decent left-field option.

The staff at Newtown Dangerfield are as cool as the clothes. Apparently for some, a range of their clothes qualifies as dress-up costumes. On my most recent trip here a lady was asking the staff for Halloween dress up ideas. Where some might take incredible insult to someone coming and asking to borrow their wardrobe for a laugh, the staff were only too happy to help, offering up suggestions as to what could work the best. Their celebrity inspired shirts are cute and you can usually find a few nice dresses/skirts in here. It’s my first stop for duffel coats/jackets and you can usually find a pretty nice selection of them on the sale rack. They have great accessories too, with hats, scarves, tights, beanies and kitsch jewellery going at pretty cheap prices.
