chrome doesn't rust, but chrome finishes on brass do wear away. it's not really fixable. it is, however, cool as shit. stop worrying and learn to love the passage of time.

price point aside - and that's something that will change when i begin my career - rick's work just makes a lot of sense for me and my lifestyle. it doesn't need to be complicated; i don't need a manifesto to justify what i wear. i'm sure the response is, "but that's not what i meant!", but this:

>but I think it's pretty clear that it's a bunch of expensive stuff worn together for nought.
and this:
>I'm just saying that it always looks like you put on a bunch of Rick pieces hoping they're magically become more interesting together just because they're Rick.

is exactly what he's saying, and it's offensively stupid.

the original gangster still uses it. and he does have worthwhile input, when he's talking about the retail and buying sides of the industry, he just consistently trips over his own feet when he wants to touch on design aspects, and this insinuation that i'm some kind of victimized brandwhore was the last straw. bitch dont no me

>since when do numbers not go hand in hand with an objective counting system
>they're literally math

no, they're just indicators of what size you're purchasing. it doesn't matter if you use 1 - 5 or xs - xl or if you use hieroglyphics or if you draw little dicks and they have different numbers of pubic hairs on the scrotum which corresponds to the size of the garment. you could refuse to denote the size if you hated making money, and it still wouldn't matter, because you're still following the same sizing procedures back at the factory.

>which actually is what XS does, within a company that uses the terminology XS to name the sizing of a jacket and a shirt it would only be logical that both shirt and jacket at size XS exist within the defined lengths for XS. If XS means something different between the jacket and shirt (because XS changes between their jackets and their shirts)

that's exactly what happens; jackets are graded larger so that your shirts will fit inside of them. coats are graded larger so that your jackets will fit inside of them.

>If XS means something different between each shirt produced from the company, then XS has no meaning.

lots of labels produce a range of fittings, with some garments designed to fit very slim, and some designed to fit very large, and maybe some will have wide torsos with narrow sleeves, because these are possible permutations of fit.

yeah, that's why numbered waist sizing isn't actually ideal. if they used something abstract, like arbitrary numbers 1 - whatever, they could just discern the median waist size of their customer's demographic, grade around that, and then you'd just buy whatever listed measurement was closest to your usual fit, rather than confusing yourself over their decision to use waist sizings that don't correspond to their waistbands.

changed my mind about dressing slutty im gonna go as michele lamy
