/fa/ - Fashion

>>10675938
I could maybe post some pics here I have 2 pairs of pants that are getting kinda nice cause I've been using both long ass time and patching them up
Also pair of chinos I dyed black from beige and waxed so they hold up better during winter
Kinda small projects though.

>>10675938

I copped this fake piece of shit before i knew what fashion was. The things is over styled and shiny as shit, but the quality is decent. I want to experiment with different methods on it cuz idgaf if it all fails anyone got any ideas they wanted to test?


>>10675953

how black did the chinos get? I know often if the base material isnt dark the pants will turn a purple hue instead of actually black

>>10675985
Use acetone and rub it over the fabric. I did it with my velcros.

>>10675985
>how black did the chinos get? I know often if the base material isnt dark the pants will turn a purple hue instead of actually black
Entirely black
Except the stitching of course cause it's polyester. But I had some acrylic paint on hand that I finished the stitching with.
I use Dylon dye.

Anyone has a flat sean or planes for an anorak like the H&M anorak?

>>10675985

>>10676138
Anybody have an "Eat the Rich" jacket similar to this?

>>10676158
Wearing it right now senpai.

I made a kind of custom noragi from an old denim curtain for a school project.

>>10676573
i dig it you fucking weeaboo

>>10676601
thanks anon desu

>>10676573
Contrast on the color looks bad and the stitching leaves something to be desired. Over all not bad anon

>leave /fa/ for about a year
>come back
>they are still posting the same pics in DIY threads

Made this for a school project. Looks way better in person because I fucked up the white balance when digitizing my documentation.

>>10676633
Welcome to 4chan, where it somehow manages to be the same shit everytime.

>>10676628
thanks, its actually the first garment ive made to completion. we were limited to using recycled materials for the project so i just used the opposite side of the denim for the contrasting parts.

Gonna be making DIY scab jeans since I am trying to not drop so much on clothing. Going to use uniqlo black stretch pants as a base, will be posting results after making my own patches like pic related

For a photography project last year

>>10676573
>school
kinda looks like a bathrobe from the front

>>10676732
idk why school got quoted

>>10676732
most bathrobes are sleeping gowns are modeled after noragi due to japonisme aka ancient weeaboos

>>10676729
your embroidery skills are substandard

>>10675938
>mom, im diy designer because i dragged my carpet across the pavement and drew

>>10676738
Because you probably highlited it before clicking on the post number to reply

I'm making some furniture/furnishings so I can move away from my ikeaknockoffcore crap.

>>10676760
um, duh?

>>10676634
not bad, how did you do it if I may ask?

>>10676748
huh, more ya know

>>10676573
what pattern did you use?? I have a shit ton of denim fabric lying around and i've been wanting to make one of these

bump

>>10676573

Everything you typed out makes perfect sense, the noragi came out dope af, but what the fuck

A denim curtain? People make denim curtains?

>>10675938

Like, I get it, distressed shit is cool af when done right.

This jacket legit looks like you're trying as hard as you can to be THAT different, special, little snowflake.

Are you still in high school?

>>10679129
thats dada's jacket
he works at h lorenzo
he has a kid
i don't think he's trying to be a special snowflake lmao

question

got a black denim jacket i wanna bleach, some pics i see it turns out white, some i see turns a gross vomit yellow. Only video i found of someone doing it properly it turned out that yellow (for some reason they wanted it like that)

anyone tried this? I'd rather not fuck up a jacket I'm working on if it's not gonna end up light grey/white when i bleach it

Any tips on dying or otherwise recoloring synthetic fabrics? I've been looking at polyester dyes and fabric paints. I really want to lighten something so paint seems to be the only way, pretty doubtful of the durability though.

>>10679135
>
WOW he works at H LORENZO exCUSE me he MUST be so cool im SO WRONG

>>10679269
Probably not worth dude. Just buy a white denim jacket. You can get em cheap from like any vintage store.

>>10679420
no no, sorry i didn't explain properly, I want the jacket to remain black, but I wanna bleach a really small part of it - like in this vid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KffpeweaY7M

I want to put some patches on my bomber

any ideas?

>>10679514

large back patches are good

pic related: image is kinda stupid but concept is cool. you can probably find a t shirt with something interesting on it and cut it out and sew it on

>>10676942
i love this, where did you get these sticks from? looks like pieces of an easel. are they painted black at the bottom?

>>10679514
check out misbhv.com they make nice quasi diy shit

>>10679624
can't afford that rn

i already have the bomber i am looking for a website that sell cool patches or maybe something i can print, thanks for the inspo tho

>>10679618
It's a pic I saved from a guide over on instructables:

http://www.instructables.com/id/a-folding-wood-coat-rack/

just finished sewing my swans patch on
pretty proud of it
also featuring shitty hand embroidery and a no face pin my gf gave me

>>10679953

good work anon

>>10676660
be advised that people will ask you if you listen to Swans

>>10679953
that is dope

>>10679953
W2c bag ?

>>10679353
mind you, he's a model and most likely knows a hell of a lot more about high fashion than you do simply from having handled the stuff

cock

literally this, I just went with the cheapest backpack I could find

>>10680172
we all know people wearing filth related things aren't swans fans and represent the shittiest portion of their fanbase.

>>10679135
you are a complete moron "newfag" if you dont know this jacket

>>10680667
this a little bit, honestly

how would I go about fixing this? I don't have any experience repairing clothing so should I just take it to a tailor and see what they can do?

>>10676634
there's a something called a layer mask bud

what kind of fabric paint is pest for doing things like >>10676660

>>10681316
Stitch a piece of similar colored cotton cloth over the area where the button was, and then sew it back on like a regular button using the hole. That's probably not how they would do it at the tailors but it looks like it's on a jacket and as long as you don't wash it too much (causing the loose thread to unravel beneath the patch) it should be fine.

>>10681316
take it to a tailor, I had to get the same thing done the guy had it ready to be picked up by the end of the day and it cost $5, don't know if it would cost the same for you but just call ahead and ask for an estimate

>>10676634
diggin dat cenobite look

>>10676573
shoes?

what I got so far.

I am still working on the pouch thing.

>>10682477

I just use the shirts for under layers. the white speckles look pretty good and add some detail.

pic related: Sorry for shitty pic. I dyed this one with black dye and it came out sorta purple-ish gray. The color isnt even through out and it looks pretty cool under black layers

>>10682486

>>10682486
This looks sick
how did you distress it?

>>10682568

you stab holes in the shirt and rip them with your hands then sand the entire thing. then wash it and it will look like this. Its probably going to curl up a lot at the bottom but you can just iron it. over time it will look better

pro tip: cut the hem off first.

>>10682611
Thx senpai

>>10682491

working on this atm too. everything with a pin is getting sewed on. there are like 40 patches on it atm but the lighting makes it hard to see them. I still have a lot of sewing to do to get full coverage.

inb4: kek kanye. fuck you guys

>>10682651
kanye is rad
backpack is bad

>>10682657
>>10682651

better picture

>>10682668
I was wrong, it's okay I like what you've done to it but I don't like the shape of the backpack

>>10682672

yea I wish I started with a better base desu. I just used what I had.

this kinda was my original motive to make it.

next time Ill make the patches more organized

>>10682684

>>10677039
They're inkjet prints on just cloth which I treated with bubble jet set. Backed em with canvas and stitched them on the jacket.

Here's my patch collection does it belong ITT?

>>10683392
I love that Too Bad So Sad one, as well as the Hard Times one.

>Tully
>Lannister
>not picking a single effay

>>10683408
I probably won't put the GOT patches on anything

>>10683419
At least cop a Mallister or Royce patch man, I mean really, Lannister and Tully? Fishes and Midgets aren't effay

>>10683425
Lannisters have the most effay patch watch it kiddo

>>10683429
>wanting to fuck your siblings

>>10677696
I actually just made my own pattern. based the dimensions loosely off of a different button down shirt i have that i liked the fit of, and went from there.

mainly just looked at pictures of noragis online and replicated details i liked

>>10679122

yeah weird as hell i know. It was actually the curtains I had in my room as a child.

>>10679953
>just finished sewing my swans patch on
>pretty proud of it
u wot? its your first time sewing or the unbalanced zig zag was on purpose?

>>10681316
theres a hole going trough the center of the button, with a needlle and some thread tie a knot going trough the hole and the fabric, but it seems the fabric is broken so a patch would help there

>>10683392
Dam those are sweet. do you just cop from ebay?

>>10676729

How long did it take for you to do this? I think I may try to embroider something tomorrow

>>10676178
w2c

>>10683903
The two in the bottom left were from stay home club
The military ones are from a military exchange
The Harley and optimist international were my grandfather's
The rest are from Amazon or online sstores

>>10676634
dope, would you sell it?

Would it be a decent idea to cut out the name and number on a prison jump in a square and sow it onto the back of a black bomber jacket?

Can someone please recommend a screen printing guide?

I copped these tights and they're way too small, no chance of returning. Can I turn them into something or should I just sell them?

>>10685121
sounds ugly tbqh
>>10685247

p good resource in general

>>10685291
why sell something worth nothing just throw them out or give them to someone

>>10676634
Where did you cop the original jacket?

>>10685291
>What are Underages (aka Spoilage)?

>>10676660
How would you get a stencil of this? Just printing a picture out to match the size of it?

I have an old pair of 511s I'm going to wax. I'm going to use pic related as the wax

My questions are: Do I two separate coats? and do I wax the belt/pocket area heavily as well?

I used to have a pair of pic related air force for like 5 years and they got a pretty nice shade over the time. Unfortunately I had to throw them away (they got torn apart).
I want to get a new pair but I don't want them to look so goddamn white.

How do I achieve the color like in pic related in a short period without destroying them?

>>10686557
Let the soles sit in water for a while and let them aerate after

>>10686557
Make some black tea and paint the soles with the tea, it'll help stain them a little without aging the plastic

>>10686557

thrift them.

>>10686557

thrift them

>>10686924

>>10686930

you could try this too, but thrifting is probably the fastest way

>>10686557
Fart and piss on them and leave them outside in the sun. Also stain the soles with tea.

>>10686557

>>10683392
Just copped the same "hard times" patch, nice collection

So, I have an old, beaten up white pair of vans, any ideas on what to draw on them?
Or is that an awful idea? I could easily do basic designs

>>10688264
a dick

>>10688264

I feel drawing on shoes never looks good.

pic related: pretty simple design and good detail and its still ass

>>10689243
I think it's because there is too much detail.

>>10688264
draw that commes des garcons apple logo but do it extra shitty so its obvious you aren't trying.

>>10689374

>apple logo

kek but actually this would be funny as shit

What type of paint should I use for the painting the rubber of shoes?

Any idea how to modify this jacket to make the green darker looking?

>>10680667
>being pretentious about some popular music band

anon :-T

>>10692354
this not as a condemnation of your understanding, or as an attempt to jack myself off or whatever, but he's entirely justified if a bit self-satisfied
swans has made radically different music, starting as no-wave, then working through noise rock, gothic rock, folk stuff, post-rock, etc.
filth-era is really attractive to people getting into swans for an image rather than the actual music, because it has an edgy cover (see pic related), isn't very accessible (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGwpmd8oPV4)) but is widely seen as an indicator of "good taste" in music groups, and further, swans is the kind of band the general public doesn't know about, so it has a certain cachet for someone trying to distinguish themselves as a tastemaker or whatever amongst friends
again, not condemning no-wave or cop/filth/such, but there's definitely a sizeable population of people who match what I described and make talking about swans really fucking painful
they're like that one picture of some williamsburg bitch with oversized sunglasses/beard/cigarette with a filth shirt

>>10692759
sums up my issue with the filth image perfectly.

also that dude in sunglasses is devendra banhart - discovered by gira and is signed on young god.

>>10676573
When bathrobes are in style is when I finally kill myself

>>10692800
never actually explored the stuff gira's published outside of swans, and I guess there's a nice irony in my being presumptuous about the image of something being a problem without actually understanding it
worth trying, or no?

>>10692857
i'd like to think that photo was a joke, but it was still pretty hilarious when i found out who he actually was.

never dug too deep into angles of light as i enjoy the noisier/abrasive/repetitive swans. if you liked white light or my father will guide me you might be more into angles.

Dyed this shit my self. Used to be blue. Sewed on arm patches and hand sewed in some dyed fishermans net and let it drape down

>>10692958

>>10692964

>>10692958
looks good, w2c base jacket ?

>>10693058
Og original Russian bomber from WWII. Thrifted it though, wish I could help you out. Problem is no pockets

How is this kind of printing called/done?

>>10693124
probably digital printing

>>10683392
props, nice collection
have the Society of misery and regrets too.

>>10693176
Thank you anon

I have some old band shirts I wanna distress, how would I do this

been tie dying a lot lately

Can I just dip a thin dark grey sweater in bleach to make it white or will that fuck up the material?

>>10692964
>>10692981
>>10692958
>>10683392
>>10679561
What kind of jackets are best for patches? I can't really pull off any sort of leather or denim jackets and I would really like to pull off a few without it looking out of placce

>>10693616
bleach makes fabrics orange, not white
also yes

>>10683507
>unbalanced zig zag
What do you mean?

>>10679269
it won't go white

Thinking of creating this without a hood, what do you think?

>>10695094

Typography is not great. As a rule, never use the built-in computer fonts for print work. Go ask /gd/ for typeface recommendations. Or just use Futura.

>>10695208
Oh, I wasn't planing on printing it, but thanks for the tip with the fonts, it was bothering me that I couldn't find a decent one.
I'll try Futura

>>10675938
Hahah wow. Autism: the jacket
Not even kidding

>>10695218

Quick example of Futura in all caps done properly.

>>10695094
So deep and meaningful. Everyone will know how superior and artistic you are.

>>10695348
Oh that looks great, thanks
>>10695354
Glad you like it

>>10686083
Wasn't particularly pleased with the pair I did about a year ago.
Even though the package says not to you have to iron it in to get a nice and even result, and even then the supposed water resistance is still sub-par. It also washes out in one or two times.
I also didn't like the matte white sheen it gave on my black jeans. I was hoping for something shiny, but instead got some weird, off-black, stiff, and occasionally flaking pair of jeans.
Would not recommend Otterwax.

>>10695498

this.


I wax a pair of gray jeans because they make the pants darker and stiffer. If you are trying to get shiny pants dont do it. you can actually paint your jeans with shiny black paint to get a much better effect.

>>10692287
dark green dye

What fabric dye do you guys recommend?

Tried using Rit's black dye dye, but all it does is turn my grays dark gray, and my whites charcoal

>>10675938
OMG!!! THIS THREAD!!! KEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

>>10693638
M65, bomber, literally any army jacket would work silhouette wise. Go for jackets with less gaudy designs, preferably no pattern at all.
Trucker jackets look good too

>>10692823
Lol, check haider ackermann
pleb.
