/fa/ - Fashion

Hello, /fa/,
Don't take this the wrong way, but I need to ask you something:
Why do you wear your /fa/ clothes?
I'm new to this board, but after having browsed for only a short while, I'm left with the impressions that the outfits you like all seem very strange and clown-like.
To us normalfags, you don't appear any less weird than cosplayers in public.
So why is it that you spend so much money on these clothes? Is it the social group; Are you part of a click of other /fa/-oriented people?
Pls explain.

Clothes no one but you would want to be seen with in public.
