So there I was, watching Seinfeld whilst reading the complete works of Shakespeare. I was completing King Lear for the 42nd time and watching George Costanza make a fool of himself once again when it came to me. I too am Costanza. A fool in a garish gown. But instead of wallowing in my self pity or doing anything about it, I decided to take the Costanzapill. The Costanza (literally "standing in two places", Italian origin) pill is a revolutionary neo-absurdist philosophy for postmodern living that allows the 21st century intellectual to reconcile his top-shelf tastes, with his barrel-scraping existence, and love of plebeian culture. The "George" self is the buffoon, the prole, the low status serf with bad genetics, stocky build, and micropenis in the pool. The "Art" self is the patrician, the elite that basks in the ignorance and suffering of the "George" self. His dress is clean, streamlined, and he buttons the right button always. George Costanza is only ever George Costanza only when he amalmagates the two into an authenticated being. Here now can George really come to terms about his life being like a show about nothing. Since I've taken the Costanzapill, I've learned to take my eclair and throw it into the garbage can too. I've burned my books, buried my refrigerator, and live off of Arby's, Twix, Bosco, mangos and cold shrimp. I spend my days watching documentaries about French expressionism and Breakfast at Tiffany's, and playing Frogger until I pass out.

It was the Moores that card is obviously a misprint

>I've learned to take my eclair and throw it into the garbage can too
Actually, he ate an eclair out the garbage, he didn't throw it in there

>he fell for the Costanza pill

Seinfeld was a major inspiration for me when I first started my transition from /v/irgin to /fa/glord. All you gotta do is mix basics that fit well on you. Any entry-level to mid-level stores are going to stock what you want. Avoid baggy clothing and avoid graphic prints. You're basically looking for the clothes you'd see your granddad in.

I think my favorite thing about this facet of 90's fashion is the earnest and genuine happiness that seems to exude from all the outfits. You see someone dressed like that and think "Man, there's someone I'd enjoy having lunch with." It's very easy to pull off.

Costanza means perseverance, not "standing in two places"

unironically everything about seinfeld core except the shoes and socks is god tier

How can I pull off the Mr. Morgan look?

that episode where they meet elaine's dad and jerry buys that nice suede jacket actually jumpstarted my effay tendencies. it really did look good on jerry with his white dress shirt and khakis.

The fitting part is the hardest for me. My pants never fit the way they should be, idk why

>avoid baggy clothing

isn’t the loose fitting shirt a staple of jerrys outfit?

IT'S MOORS. SAY MOORS!!

>baggy

I read that part of George's costuming was putting him in a size smaller than he would wear and part of Kramer's costuming was putting him in a size larger than he would wear.
So bagginess would depend on which character you're emulating.

Jerry did look good but George is wearing The Executive trenchcoat which looks fucking sharp on him in that scene.
