If you’re a fan of the early days of British punk, you might remember a character named Soo Catwoman who was often seen hanging around with The Sex Pistols.
You couldn’t miss her. Her hair was shaved really short on top and had tuffs of hair sticking up on either side, making it look like she had the ears of a cat. When punk rock burned out, she faded into the background and lived quietly until she died in late 2025 at the age of 71. But before she died, her look had a sizeable influence on the fashion world. Fashion houses like Chanel took cues from here, and Keith Flint, the late dancer and frontman for The Prodigy, styled his hair on Soo Catwoman.
Do a quick Google on her, and you’ll see what I mean.
