MNDLB5 Style Guide
​Welcome to the MNDLB5 Style Guide — crafted exclusively for the members of the electronic group MNDLB5. This guide is your go-to source for styling inspiration, shaping the next generation of urban underground style.
For greater convenience and complete information, I will analyze two styles that we need in life and on stage:
1. Masculine: Stage // Underground style
2. Masculine: Basic // Business style
3. Feminine: Stage // Underground style
4. Feminine: Basic // Business style​
Masculine
Stage // Underground
To create a unique style for the group, I was inspired by the aesthetics of such subcultures as techno, steam punk, cyberpunk, ghetto gothic.
The uniqueness of this style lies in the bold combination of different aesthetic trends, creating an underground and expressive image.
​
1. Black Colour and Skulls:
Black colour is the main shade in our style. It is like a symbol of hidden power, symbolises mysticism and mysterious aesthetics. Black items go well with any colours. Skulls can be used as a decorative element on clothing, accessories or graphic prints, emphasising brutality and style.
2. Black Balaclavas and Hoods:
These elements add dark intrigue and anonymity to the image, giving it a mysterious and anomalous quality. They can also serve as privacy protection and create an intimate atmosphere during performances and photo shoots.
3. Acid Shades and Dynamic Patterns:
Add acid shades and dynamic patterns to your style to highlight the energy, experimental and innovative nature of the band and DJ. These can be bright accents in the form of neon shades or psychedelic patterns that reflect the dynamics of your music.
4. Mixing Subcultures:
Integrate elements of various subcultures such as techno, cyberpunk, steampunk and ghettogoth into your clothing style. This will help us create a unique and layered image that reflects the variety of styles in electronic music.
​
5. Steampunk Details:
Add steampunk details to your look, such as mechanical accessories, gears, bracelets, belt chains, pendants or vintage aesthetics to make your style unique and original.
​
6. Cyberpunk and Techno:
We can integrate elements of cyberpunk and techno into the image to reflect modern technology and cyber reality. Futuristic materials such as LED accessories, interactive elements, wrist gadgets, sunglasses, mirror glasses, masks, accessories and jewellery of unusual shapes, latex, metal and leather will emphasise the innovative and modern character of the style.
​
7. Ghetto Goth Inspiration:
Get inspired by ghetto goth by mixing street fashion elements with gothic accents. This can be a combination of black clothing, heavy shoes, balaclavas, hoods and cut-outs, heavy chains, face masks to express your boldness and underground aesthetic.
​
8. Experiment with Textures and Techniques:
Don't be afraid to experiment with unusual textures and techniques in fashion design. Use combinations of materials, custom cuts and decorative elements to create unique and memorable outfits.
​
9. Challenge Stereotypes:
Emphasise your courage and defiance through clothing. Ignore stereotypes, create and broadcast your own style rules that reflect your artistry and unpredictability.
Basic // Business
Since the majority of team members have leadership business roles and a business lifestyle, I offer appropriate images that will be comfortable in everyday life, at a business dinner and at an evening event.
These selected sets offer basic sets of clothes and business sets, with jackets. Sets give a clear idea of what you can wear with what.
Basic items are simple and comfortable and go well with sneakers and sweatshirts. Shirts can be multifunctional and can be worn comfortably under a V-neck sweater. Monochrome tones of a shirt with a jacket, tone on tone, also look very stylish. Nowadays it is fashionable to wear a turtleneck under a jacket in the colour of the jacket. T-shirts can be worn under a jacket, which will add a slight negligence to your look in combination with a slight mess on your head. Don't forget to add accessories to your look, such as bracelets, watches, scarves.
Feminine
Stage // Underground
For the most beautiful representative of the group, I developed a provocative and trendy image. It combines the subculture of techno aesthetics, futurism and a little cyberpunk. Black latex, leather, gothic silhouettes inspired by Mugler style.
There are also kits with bright psychedelic and acidic colors, which fits well with the dynamics and spirit of the group.
​
Her militant and at the same time sexy image makes her a heroine from virtual reality.
Basic // Business
Basic and everyday style for our girl is a style in which she will be comfortable, both at a meeting with friends and at dinner.
