Alvin’s inspiration was a Melbourne music venue called The Crystal Ballroom and its patrons – the mods, the skinheads, the sharpies and the goths of the late 70s and early 80s. The show began with excerpts of the series displayed on the screens. With red lipstick, dark eye make up and teased hair-dos, the models were made to look an interesting combination of vampires, goths and punks. The jewellery was a pivotal factor in the show, with chains hanging from the model’s necks and legs, and their eyebrows built up with either silver, gold or black. Even the shoes, which were scuffed-up Doc Martens and combat boots, were draped in chains. The garments were made up predominantly of black, white, red, stripes and denim, and laden with studs. There were also many tailored pieces, however, which were styled with suspenders. Some of the pieces were even two-toned with white and red, roughly merged to look like blood stains, fitting the vampire theme perfectly. The show also defied conventional model formation, by interspersing single models with models walking two or three at a time, and a finale composed of all models walking at once.
