I try pretty hard to look fashionable but I always seem to have cringe-worthy fits. How long did it take you to find what worked for you?

It took me over a decade to perfect my look.

The most important thing is being cognizant of the reality of your own body size/shape, facial appearance, and even your personality.

Fashion does NOT exist in a vacuum. If you are a guy who is 5'9' with short legs and lifts like me, obviously some things are going to work, and some things aren't. Ditto if you're a 6'1 hungry skelly twinkboi with pouty lips and sad eyes.

Keeping this in mind, /fa/ is often VERY unhelpful, because they have dogmatically decided that some things are bad, just bad, period-- and some things are god. (Ex., streetwear = BAD, Rick = GOOD).

In reality, there are those on whom street wear is a good fit, and those on whom Rick is a good fit.

I like Rick Owens but apart from Geobaskets or Ramones I would never wear his clothes. It would look silly on me. Rick Owens doesn't match my body or my personality. Those who can pull off Rick Owens/Yoji/etc. looks really good. But in reality, 95%+ people can't really pull off Rick.

Kek. All the people who are fashionable have left this board. Now, the /r/streetwear cuck beasts are here.

First things first. The fit is the most important thing. If your clothes dont fit right no matter how expensive it is it WILL look like shit. So take some measurements of your body and find a good tailor. Also never go full designer shit until you know it will work for you start with basics then work that kind of stuff in over time. Your style will change so no use blowing all your money on stuff you wont wear in a year.

It didn't take too long once I started caring about how I looked. I started coming here maybe 8 months ago, I've already got down to 2 general looks I'll wear and look at least decent in.

Streetwear is for 12 yo virgins dressed by their mums or chavs and niggers.
