The parka, over the decades, has become a signature look of the mod. It came to the forefront of fashion during the 1960s and 70s with the rise of bands like The Kinks and The Who becoming unlikely fashion icons. The release of "Quadrophenia" in 1973 raised the parka to new heights in the wardrobes of the youth with the entire cast sporting the look. It moved onto the catwalks quickly for both spring and winter seasons. Houses such as Burberry have embraced the look from season to season for it's style and practicality. The parka is extremely wearable and versatile. To dress up a parka, I would team it with a floral summer dress and a thin gold waist belt, or a crisp white shirt and a pair of city shorts (as seen in Rag & Bone S/S 2010). So make like Liam Gallagher and don a parka.
