holy cringe batman

Unironically, what are some good resources for learning about this "style" as a dude? As far as I can tell, its prep/ivy but with muted colors and a lack of of overt/eye catching designs like stripes.
Sure its shit but I can't explain why I like it.

>>15566955
You're on the right path, look into prep/ivy, New England, and traditional menswear ("Tailoring" as the style is being called nowadays on the internet) but go for darker, muted colors in interesting patterns like houndstooth, gunclub check, herringbone, glenn check, and textures like tweed, wools, and so on. There's a lot of potential to find good items for this style when thrifting.

ITT you realize you are on a board filled with actual children

>>15566976
Ah jeez, a lot of that site screams Tumblr. The section at the end that actually lists off some clothing was helpful though.
I'll check out the rest of the stuff you recommended, specifically the textures. Thanks for the advice.

>Ah jeez, a lot of that site screams Tumblr.
DA is literally a Tumblr aesthetic.

The real question is which one would you most like to hatefuck?

>>15566955
Just read The Secret History by Donna Tartt. It’s all in there.

>>15566802
Vivian unironically
Also wtf is this instagram shit?

Why is everyone choosing Vivian? She doesn't even read poetry!

Ahhhh I’m a mix of attributes
I think I’m most likely Sylvia but most attracted to Vivian

This is the only /fa/ answer. This is what Bateman would do.

>>15566815
Dark academia is literally Harry Potter larp, this shouldn't surprise you.

>>15567720
Always gives me Pagemaster vibes desu senpai

>>15566841
absolutely based

woman were a mistake

Poo poo Sylvia all you want. She has a museum date! AHHHHHH!!!

I fucking murder them all because I hate women

>>15566802
i wish all 3 would get deported to a middle eastern country. i wonder how quickly their veneer of the noise/drone listening tastemaker and all-around academic would fall apart until they start learning how to cook rice and dry beans for the first time while avoiding prying eyes from the multitudes of thirsty, salivating brown people

>>15566955
Like >>15567068 said, just read the book. Basically just wear darker trad clothing of high quality if you can. See the attached pic. Don't dress too acoustic, though, unless you can afford the social capital to look out of place as hell among normal people. Usually I wear these greyish-brown flannel wool pants, with a dark blue wool turtleneck, and Canadian army parade boots. Honestly though, dressing this acoustic is only half of the aesthetic. It's more about the lifestyle, much like Trad/Ivy/Prep. Think of this as the LARP spinoff of T/I/P. Get into WASP shit, get into literature, and classical studies. Or don't. The look still fits, given we're in Autumn.

>>15567068
Does she assign all her characters Hogwarts houses?

Alexei, Vadim, or Pyortr?

>>15568897
what the fuck is wrong with you

Also it really takes away from the intended aesthetic that all of them have Harry Potter house attached to them

>>15567353

OK, Elliot.

Are you a May, Elle, or Alex???????

>only listens to vinyl
great sign you're dealing with a tryhard, have fun with massive limitation when it comes to orchestral pieces that can't fit in the 25 minutes you get from an LP side
>only reads authors depending on their identity
absolute meme taste, avoid like the plague

>>15569175
Vadim all the way, duh.

>>15566815
Dark academia is literally just the last remaining tumblrinas larping as smart kids.
Problem is, they have no frame of reference outside of Harry Potter and the Dead Poets Society as to what academia is, or what it means to be an intellectual.

>>15568897
>what would happen if you put the academic out of academic

>>15566815
fuck tumblr but is modest dress and woolen fabrics really so bad for winter?

>>15570065
neither does the academia

>>15570057
he is best but personally I happen to be an Alexei

>>15566802
go back to instagram

i read the harry potter books as a kid but i dont remember there being a house called slytherpuff

>>15570111
that's just fans slowly realizing that the house system is limited and their using it to categorize personnality types is very dumb, so they have to fuse houses to describe themselves, making the system useless in the process

vivian

>>15570077
If it has a retard in it. Yes.

>>15570077
the style is just prep/trad with earth tones, gray, and black, it's a good look

I'm saying it's fucked up to call it "academia" and then add in Harry Potter references. If you want to be "academic", put down the children's book.

>>15566802
This style is pretty good, but it’s pretty much just a nerdier version of how late 00s/early 10s hipsters used to dress.

I guess it’s a necessary backlash against the abundance of streetwear that dominates current trends

>>15570131
this lmfao

>>15567353
Loled IRL at this post

>>15569175
These are actually very solide fits. I appreciate the effort anon

Leftists always find a way to cringe the shit out of me.

>Harry Potter
God fucking damn I hate this shit

where's my infp girls at

fmk


i'd fuck brooke
mary vivian
kill sylvia

>>15573379
fuck vivian. she likes to debate so she's probably a ballbuster. good for angry fucks
marry brooke because she seems frugal and organized. my intelligence doesn't feel threatened because she's stupid enough to listen to vinyl
kill sylvia because lgbtq++ shit is aids and she probably has already had her puss stretched out through many lesbian fistings

>>15570131
Make Dark Academia Academic Again

>>15566802
All are sub 115 iq psueds who will throw a tantrum if you call them out on their subpar understanding of the subjects they base their personality around for social signaling
I've dealt with enough of these types in in humanities departments, always bottom of the class buffoons trying to act out a movie character lifestyle

>>15568897
Where the fuck did your conception of the Middle East come from? Life there is entirely normal like everywhere else for most of the population. You can literally find larping type girls like in the pic at universities. Kill yourself orientalist brainfried burgerland brainwashed faggot

you'll notice this shit if you peruse virtually any western social media that's populated by people that actually believe blm and truly believe that through some kind of magic medical ritual a man can actually become a woman
you'll notice that these people go on and fucking on about fucking harry potter
the answer is so simple: this mediocre children's book is most probably the only book that they've ever actually read, and so they base everything on it and seemingly defer to it in every instance including matters of morality and politics
its like a surrogate bible in this now godless society
if they'd read other books they wouldn't be so easily swayed by all the current bs and wouldn't be using twitter and discord and parroting cnn talking points unquestioningly
I've met girls like this
only thing they ever read were those damn books
what's funny is that their brains right now are all trembling and on the verge of collapse because or rowling's recent rants

What brands sell dark academia clothes? Most places I look for don't look dark academia enough.

>>15579309
literally just TIP in autumn fabrics/colors

>>15579309
Go thrifting for older clothing, or buy autumn colours in your local TIP store.

Had a jacket like Alex's. Too small, gave it to a friend.
