I would argue that Kevin Godley's jumper with a picture of his own face on it edges 10cc into 'well-dressed'

dunno what the buzzcocks were going for exactly with their mod bank clerk thing look but it's those anachronistic trainers that really strike me out of the whole ensemble

I think Joy Division had a certain style but I guess they weren't exactly well-dressed as one would be for an important reception or somesuch, fair enough.
