/fa/ - Fashion

Hey,

I like some metal bands. Metalheads are usually not fashionable though. I think most important is: be skinny.

>nicer jeans
>no studs
>only black and white patches
>CDG Odeur 53 (smells like metal)
>be handsome

The guy who basically invented the metal look: Rob Halford from Judas Priest.

>>10740635
More Priest.

Rob went to gay BDSM sex shops to buy riveted leather stuff for his shows. The look caught on, and now the riveted leather bracelet (originally a gay sex item) is heavy metal stapel. Rather ironic considering there are homophobic metal bands out there who wear it too.

>>10740635

He didn't really invent it though. He just copypasted the gay biker look.

Speed metal bands seem to be /fa/.

Pic related, black cowboy chic long before Hedi Slimane.

>>10740647
He popularized the gay biker look as "THE metal look". That's what I meant with "invented".

More Motöhead.

>>10740667
Young Varg was cute as fuck.

Should've gotten into fashion instead of racism.

>>10740678
varg actually isn't racist anymore.


he just dislikes immigration and christianity and jews t b h

And here's the thrash metal look, if you're into brighter denim and less leather.

>>10740683
Which is the definiton of racism. A rambling, fat, old racist man who likes to cosplay and invent "Aryan" boardgames.

>>10740683
>varg actually isn't racist anymore.

>racism is bad meme
Let the Viking do what he wants.

>>10740688
I'd like to see a palewave/thrash fit tb perfectly h

The thing about true metalheads (not core kids) is that metal is nerdy as fuck, "Hey, check out this sick Finders Of The Path map I designed" nerdy. Nerds are neither socially nor culturally aware, thus incredibly uneffay.

That said, there are elements of metal that can look really cool if applied well, its just that they rarely are. Black clothing is already easymode.

>longsleeve black/death metal tees
>combat boots
>black denim jackets or vests w/ patches
>well fitting camo pants
>worn out tight black jeans
>leather biker jacket if you're skinny enough
>oversized death metal tees if you're athletic enough

pic related is the only decent example I could find of metal aesthetic because 95% of metal heads dress like dogshit. And as with many other looks, the older you get, the dumber this style will look on you, until you get old enough that its ironically dope as fuck on you.

>>10740749
>Nerds are neither socially nor culturally aware, thus incredibly uneffay.

Every (good) fashion designer ever was a nerd. You don't get to be fashionable if you aren't a nerd about clothes.

>>10740749
Which is why the point of this thread is to sort of reinvent the metal look as aesthetic, while still looking distinctly metal.

>>10740754
>very (good) fashion designer ever was a nerd.
You know the nerds we're talking about, dude.

>>10740694
he's not. he just hates immigration of non europeans to europe. he wants people to believe in their traditional pagan religions. he's also commented that he dislikes the british empire because it genocided aboriginal people in the australias. he's not racist, just antisemetic
>>10740692
>rambling

not really

>fat

he's pretty healthy

>old

he's not that old, he's middle aged

>racist

nope

>cosplay

he just likes dressing up as a european warrior and doing HEMA. pretty fun


>invent Aryan boardgames

his boardgame is based on nordic mythology, faggot

>>10740766
>his boardgame is based on nordic mythology, faggot

Did you actually read MYFAROG? Because I did. Not only racist, but hilariously historically revisionist.

>>10740598

Post inspo

>>10740767
there's nothing racist about it, and nothing "historically revisionist" since it's set in a fantasy land.

>>10740754
You're needlessly splitting hairs as you know I'm not talking about fashion nerds. Next time, consider adding to the discussion instead.

>>10740801
Okay, so you didn't read it.
Varg makes constant references to the real world in the book, often to vent his butthurt. Stuff like "The nobles in this world are truly noble and just! They are wise and courageous, just like they were in real life! These liberal bastards are trying to confuse us and tell us European nobility was often corrupt, oppressive, and abusive, but they are liars!"
Also he has evil races basically based off africans and jews, which often try to corrupt the noble whites and turn them against each other.
You seem to be under the impression MYFAROG is an innocent mythic fantasy game with a lean toward dark ages northen europe. It is basically a manifesto of Varg's worldview thinly disguised as a needlessly convoluted roleplaying game.

Punk fit is better

>>10740885

>>10740885
Yup.

>>10740678
>implying

>>10740885
thats GRUNGE

>>10740598
Get a black denim jacket, put some cool patches on it but not too many. Maybe a couple buttons, a cool band hoodie maybe underneath if not just a white tee. Grey skinny jeans cuffed with white socks and wear your gay ass doc martens or whatever you faggots wear? Or sk-8 highs if you're trying to be fashionable.

>>10740827
lmao, that's hilarious

Old Varg is off the rails.

death metal sweatshirts

>>10740885
Where are the punks? those kids are playing dress up

>>10740755
>>10740807
>nerds

Look, you are either saying that fat, ungroomed people who wear just anything are un/fa/ - which is obvious. So why do you need to point that out? Or you are saying that people are un/fa/ just because they like some role playing game - which I disagree with.

If your definition of /fa/ is "just do what the popular kids do" then I think it is narrow-minded and wrong. Fashion is the art of clothes, and nothing else.

>>10740981
Yeah, that's what punks are.

>>10741017
rekt

>>10741017
As someone who has been neck-deep in nerd subculture to the point of being a virgin well into my mid-20s, while exceptions of course exist, the types of people who play tabletop and obsess over scifi and fantasy, play card games, etc. by and large have zero fashion sense. The uniform is basically blue jeans, sneakers, white socks, and an ill-fitting graphic t-shirt.

I'm not saying /fa/ and /tg/ are mutually exclusive, I'm saying there is extremely limited overlap between the two.

This

>>10740885
thats not punk, that is being a fucking posser, faggot.

>>10741017
I can't tell if you're being deliberately obstinate or if you genuinely don't understand. If the latter, what I'm saying is:

Metal is populated by nerds. Nerds, by and large, have a painful lack of style. That being case, metalheads, the people who like metal, are near universally not stylish. Is there any part of that that you disagree with?

source: been deep, deep into metal since teenage years.

>>10740598
i like grey much better than blue
a friend of mine has this

A few tips to make your kutte maximum effay:
>Use a jet black cotton or denim jacket with the sleeves cut off and minimal pockets and other things like epaulettes
>Use only black and white patches
>Black metal and war metal are the most effay genres of metal, so use mainly those band's patches. Old school death metal and speed metal can also be effay
>don't put any studs on the vest with the exception of huge spikes that can only be put on the shoulders
>contrasting stitching can be very effay but only if it is neat, otherwise you'll look like a crusty
>Political patches can also be effay, but again only if they're black and white and only if they're right-wing
>only use square patches
>Homemade patches are extremely effaay but only if they fit the aforementioned requirements

>>10742297
>being a little weak /fa whimp
>wearing patches of bands you don't even know

You poser fucks are gonna get your asses kicked. better stay in your rick and kanye territory.

>>10742301
Where did i say wear patches of bands you don't even know? I was just saying the most effay types of metal.

Also i used to be quite a big metalhead and i'm definately not a weak little /fa/ wimp, mr tough internet metalhead

>>10740598
Simple. SLP combined with Burzum.

>>10740631
>only black and white patches
I agree, non-monocrome ruins metal.

That's why Burzum patches would work wonders.

>>10740662
>motorhead
>speed metal

Kill yourself, poser

>>10740749
Mayhem and Burzum did everything right.

Nordic Metal bands are way more /fa/ than Americucks or Brits.

Dead here on the left looks nice, Dead always dressed decently for what he did.

post some black metal inspo those dudes dress nicer than americlaps.

Usually the singers are the ones with the best fashion sense.

>>10742349
sick fit desu

any reqs on where to buy black metal clothing? i really want the long sleve hvis lyset tar oss shirt in pic related.

>>10742374
Can be improved tho at least imho.

swap the denim jacket with the cutted off sleeves with a black one and basically do all this: >>10742297

This is super solid advice. Only blck n white band patches would look DARK as fuck.

For the bottom: black skinnies with black combat boots or some dope ass hi-top white sneaks like Dead there.

The think that makes Nordic Metalheads more /fa/ than Americlap ones or Britbongs is that since they have a super cold weather they almost always wear sweatshirts.

Layering sweatshirt with custom made denim vest is the bread & butter of Black Metal.

>>10740598

goth ninja

>>10742387
Buy everything from Varg's website

>>10742401
Yeah kinda like that but more European Folkloric looking. Lets call it Goth Rogue/Thief.

>>10740598
Here's what you do

>cut your hair
>listen to music that isn't fucking garbage
>stop being such a ridiculously autistic fucking bellend
>wear simple plain but classy clothes


Metal is the gayest fucking thing on this planet, metalheads are fucking retarded, everything about it is so cringey, the whole world points and laughs at you and for some reason you take it as a compliment.

>be varg
>be an edgy faggot

The fuck is this?

Honestly one of you /fa/ms must cop this shit, doesn't matters if its girls. That shit looks sick.

>>10742434
Varg IS blonde. He dyed his hair black one time through, and looks brown in some pics because some blondes lose their fairness for sometime then it comes back.

Anon confirmed for non-blonde.

The black metal fits this chick does are sick tbqh /fa/m.

Our goal ITT is basically that but in mens.

Some studding work i did recently on my leather jacket,
What ya think?

>>10742533
For leather jackets thats nice. On denim that doesn't looks as good, memechrome band patches is the way to go in denim jackets.

>>10741572
>>10742274
I don't disagree with you, I just don't see a reason to dislike roleplaying games, or any other milieu where unfashionable people are abundant. If you are narrow-minded you will oust yourself from great sources of inspiration. Sports and sneakers was considered unfashionable 20 years ago, and now it's everywhere.

I have a chubby metal girl in class and I find her outfits to be more interesting than those of the other "cool" girls.

>>10742566
Of couse she is cooler Metalheads are seeking an style unlike the other normie peasant scum.

Metalheads are roleplaying nerds through (Europe), or Ex-emos (USA).

The former being the most /fa/, especially if Nordic.

w2c berserker wolf pelt?

I think Glenn Danzig did it best, Simple and well pulled off

should I hunt the wolf myself (and consume it ofc no food goes to waste, that's anti-pagan) to prove that I'm worthy of Valhalla and take the wolf's spirit with me?

>>10742610
I googled him. No.

>>10740631

>CDG Odeur 53

correctamundo. i also like cdg dover street market.

my question is; is there any middle of the road metal look or inspo out there?

im too unkempt to do nicer looking fits (i think) but im not gross/kvlt enough to go full metalhead. (and i have 0 punk cred) so like, no bulletbelts, no super long hair, no patchy ass skinny jeans, but i still wanna wear my battle jacket.

suggestions?

>>10742566
At no point did I ever bash or demean being nerdy or suggest doing popular things, all I said was nerds are by and large not stylish, which you admit is true. You're taking offense at your own invented assumptions, friend.

>>10742611

>>10740827
>varg makes constant references to the real world


nothing wrong with that


>Also he has evil races basically based off africans and jews, which often try to corrupt the noble whites and turn them against each other.

just because a race is black, doesn't mean it's based off africans. And the jews do try to turn the whites against each other, fuck jews.

>You seem to be under the impression MYFAROG is an innocent mythic fantasy game with a lean toward dark ages northen europe. It is basically a manifesto of Varg's worldview thinly disguised as a needlessly convoluted roleplaying game.

it's a roleplaying game set in a dark ages europe, that has some of vargs worldviews applied to it. varg's worldviews are right.

he doesn't hate blacks or any other race, he just hates jews.

>>10743136
>varg's worldviews are right
far right desu

>>10743075
You said "Nerds are neither socially nor culturally aware, thus incredibly uneffay. "

I commented on that.

>>10743231
not him but most are right. but many other of his views are completely silly.

extremes touch, far right and far left are both dumb and dont realize it. I dont even believe in left vs right tho...

>>10743314
It's all the same really. When I ask people for direction and they tell me "take the 4th right, then the 2nd left", I forget it and just go wherever. Always end up somewhere still, I'll just keep asking usually.

>>10742411
Hi mfa

>>10743251
Gotcha. I don't think that's an inherently negative trait, its just what it is. I stand by that statement.

>>10740644
>that subtle editing out of Dave Holland

>>10742411

My sides

How has nobody posted the Goose yet?
I am utterly disappointed, /fa/

>>10743631

>>10743648
he's so ugly

>>10741407

normal masculine /fa/ outfit such as levis jackets and slim fit pants and boots plus metal tee that doesnt look shit. there u go.

>>10743631
>short hair
>black metal

pussy ass nigga

>>10744731
really shitty advice.

dress like nordic black metal or gtfo, black metal is the only /fa/ metal thanks to mayhem ans burzum for the most part.

god varg sounds like a bit of a tard but burzum is the only metal music i like.

>>10744953
it isnt metal at this point. its dark ambient, religious pagan music.

but my tastes are: burzum, mayhem, darkthrone, fintroll, arkona, ensiferum, etc entry level folk metal.

>>10744970
yeah i know that, but his black metal albums are like the only metal music I like, I like his ambient stuff as well.

>>10744943
except i listen to black metal
wanting to dress like a 90's norwegian and defending it on this board is gay retarded
they made good music but they were mostly just dumbshits with anger issues for the most part. i dont know any famous 90s bm musician who had any career outside of their obscure unprofitable genere of music that most of them never profited from or even got to tour.
making and listening to music is a great hobby to have but dont make it your life god. for god sakes varg got thrown into jail for two decades because of some retarded cunt who was too obsessed with satanism and music. eronymous wasnt an outlier in how these dolts acted.
be more than just one genre you listen to. yeah, its great to wear band tees to show your interests now and then and they definately can look good with other good pieces, but make your own identity. dont base it off of some retarded 19 year old norwegians in the 90s.

>>10740891
i dont know why but that looks really comfy for some reason.

black metal is the most effay.

dumping some BM inspo

>>10745393

>>10745394

>>10745397

>>10745400

>>10745393
yes

simple all-black skinny silhouettes and long (usually) blonde hair.

>>10745403

>>10745404
I'm sorry but no, that weeb shit isn't cool

>>10745408
Just sayin. gonna try that shit it's simple.

Skinny black jeans, black boots, black tank and a black denim jacket with monochrome band patches. That shit is so simple and memechrome it must work, it will actually as long as the fits are right.

post-mayhem era black metallers started dying their hair black. natural is always best.

>>10745400
Are crossbow-pistols /fa/?

>>10745442
That gas can is a must have accessory for any black metal outfit
>>10745435
I lol'd, but pretty accurate

I'm new to /fa/, and I'm liking how there are black metal threads here even thoughI don't really understand it

lol metal isnt effay at all. and this is coming from one who listens to metal

those nike trainers

>>10745462
Maybe trash, power and the other subgeneres.

But black metal can be adapted to fashion. Basically gothninja with black metal imagery as done here by this chick: >>10742729
>>10742727
>>10742440
>>10742457

seriously blackmetal can be done fashionably, if you're good customizing your shit that is, otherwise goodluck.

You pretty much need all black custom modified/DIY everything.

>>10745458
No, but full size crossbows are

>>10745462
Lots of the pics here are just there for inspo don't take the whole outfits as the looks we're trying to assemble here.

What at least I'm trying to come up with is goth ninja-esque looks with memechrome metal graphics, thats it. A little more rugged-worn looking as well, goth ninja is too clean.

Kinda like the things raf simmons does but with black metal imagery.

The image explains it better.
