Let us dispel with this fiction that Rick Owens knows what he's doing. He doesn't know exactly what he's doing. Rick Owens is undergoing systematic effort to destroy the fashion word.

I say it all the time. Rick threads are the most powerful cancer that destroy this board. /ROG/ is the single least tolerant, least colorful, and edgiest subculture to ever appear on this board. They bring shame and make fools of those who associate the same Cantonese quilting forum. Removing all Rick threads will make this board better

Whats even worse about /ROG/ is that people in those threads spend all their money on clothes but are still either fat fucks or skinny skeletons. Rick Owens himself said that if you aren't /fit/ and don't have the money to buy his clothes then you should get a gym membership instead and work towards not being poor before you buy his clothes. Its such a shit show.

Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Kanye West doesn't know what he's doing. He knows EXACTLY what he's doing. Kanye West is undertaking a systematic effort to change fashion, to make nigger fashion more like the rest of the fashion world.

That's why he made Yeezus and the stimulus and TLOP and the deal with Nike. It is a systematic effort to change fashion. When I'm president of the /fa/, we are going to re-embrace all the things that made fashion the greatest hobby in the world and we are going to leave our children with what they deserve: the single greatest clothing line in the history of the fashion world.

I don't get people who don't do what they want.

Fashion is like anything, you should behave in accordance to your own tastes. I think Rick's clothing is beautiful, and that's why I buy and wear it.

The only intention Rick has is for you to like his things and wear them. If you don't like it, fine.

If you don't understand it, maybe that's on you. I like how you are so quick to shrink an idea like art appreciation into "2deep4u". Why like anything? Are you supposed to just have a passing interest in things? Are we going to ignore that digging deep into any area of fine art is very rewarding, or that it alters your perception? Rick is the kind of designer that takes the history of clothing and fashion into consideration with his designs, as well as a sort of prediction of where it can, or should, go. If you are used to just fast fashion jeans and t-shirts everywhere, I can see how it would be jarring, but to me it looks very natural, it has a timeless quality and a very modern feeling to it.

I'm not going to listen to the radio all the time just so I can know all the music everyone talks about, I'm going to listen to shit I love to listen to even if I can't talk to most people about it. I'm not going to wear shit you think is appropriate because who are you, and why do you think I need to impress you? I don't really want anything to do with someone who has an issue with the way I look.If I'm crossing the street and people are staring, then whatever, I'm probably listening to music or talking to someone.

This never happens though. I've never had any social problems. If anything, it's brought me into contact with people I can relate to.

So there you go. Do what you want, because you're going to die

I saw someone in an /ROG/ saying that "Rick says it's better to be a starving artist than rich and a sellout" or something like that, to justify spending all his money on Rick. As if spending thousands on overpriced clothing (that is already a huge moneymaker for the founder) is the same thing as being an artist who suffers for his art.

It's a cult

Yeah no, it's actually pretty on point and open minded. People who shitpost on the thread even get on topic replies unlike people in this thread.
You don't like the clothing and it's perfectly fine but projecting this much makes it ridiculous.
This board's true cancer is thread like these and threads asking "is x effay ?" which are 80% of the board which means there are very little discussion about designers.

How the fuck are you going to hate on /ROG/? While I recognize that Rick is a master patternmaker and tailor, I don't like the way his clothes look (at least not on men, womenswear is amazing) and therefore I DONT READ /ROG/. Just don't click on the thread. Nobody is forcing you to.

Don't you think most of the people wearing Rick or any other "weird" designer are aware of the fact that some teenager in Mississippi or whatever shithole you live in wont like it? They don't care. Why should they?

I didn't say this, I said it's perfectly if you don't like the clothing but the truth is we don't care that you don't like them, we know it's a niche, we know it's not an aesthetic everyone will like but we do.

>>11034761
Erm, no, it's just that the purpose of ROG is to discuss specifically about RO's work, but I remember some days ago there was a CCP thread and it was nice, just because people like RO doesn't mean they only like him. I personnaly browse ROG and like work from Yohji, CCP, Raf, Guidi, Horikawa, even Lemaire and Thom Browne.
Then again a fashion forum will discuss about designers and yes they do have an authority on fashion matters since it's their job and most of them have a specific aesthetic

This only happens in high school, is what we're saying. If the popular kids in your school bullies you I sort of understand why you're so afraid of their opinions, but it's not like that when you're an adult. I see people wearing stuff I think is ugly all the time - I don't care, just like I don't care if they also think the same when they look at my shit. If you like wearing gore-tex sneakers, blue denim and anime shirts, good for you! Keep doing you! I'm the most comfortable in weird knitted dresses, texturized leather and big ass jewellry and therefore I'm going to keep wearing it.

Only children think openly mocking a stranger on the street is cool, in any other situation you're just making a fool of yourself. Nobody that matters actually like dickheads, you know?

Just chill out, be nice and do you. If you're too insecure to do so, you've got bigger issues that needs to be dealt with before you start stressing out over something as trivial as a fucking outfit.

Only a fag wears Rick Owens shit. Change /Rog/ to /fags/ and I wouldn't mind. But thinking Rick is fashion is the same as never growing up from a middle school emo phase.

Regardless, there is no doubt that /ROG/ is quite honestly the one of the few threads on this whole board that is on the topic of the board's discussion. Which is fashion. Actual fashion. Meaning, the majority of /fa/ is thirteen year olds asking if they should buy converse or stan smiths. So it is understandable why they would project such buttmad about designer clothing that is unobtainable to them.

supreme is an incredible example of a genuinely cool brand being turned to shit by mass popularity. their was a time where you would be able to cop something hours after it dropped. now it takes 15 seconds for most of a drop to get sold out, save for some god-awful piece or a completely unbranded item because "muh brand recognition"
