Language is a funny thing. I never heard "scene" used in a non-theatrical sense until I moved to Los Angeles a few years ago. Granted there are a lot of folks in NYC overly obsessed with image and appearance but I don't remember such a preoccupation with clothing as it relates to musical tastes (even back in the punk days.)

Maybe I've just forgotten too much but I'd think it would stick as it was my job as a designer to take note of such things.

I'll just chalk it up to regional differences and dialect.
