/fa/ - Fashion

only my fedora

depends on what i copped, usually tip a stack or 2 tho.

how can i troll the salespeople at the RO store?

bout three fiddy

>>5982893
Wear fakes to the store.

>>5982882

>>5982893
ask about all saints
why his handwriting is so bad
about the quality
'feels like its made in china'
where you can cop cheap basics
where the scoops are
why are the nike swooshes backwards
why is the clothing assymetricala, does rick have a funny eye?

>>5982916
Min Wage + Tips.

do sales people at RO make minimum wage too

>>5982893
drop rick's name on a lot and act like you know him on a first name basis.

why would i tip someone when i would go into the store knowing exactly what I want, carry it to the counter and pay for it?

a restaurant is different, because the waiter has to take my order, bring food to the table, etc. but a sales associate only has to operate a cash register.

>>5982918
If you can't afford to tip the sales associate a couple hundred $ you shouldn't be shopping for designer clothes anyway.

>not tipping when shopping at boutiques
people do this?

what do people tip the sales associates at high end fashion stores?

it must be a lot, right?

how do I get one of these jobs?

How do the prices compare to online?

rick sales associates do fuk all

they just stare at u blankly until u r ready 2 buy somethin. y wud i tip some1 4 checking an item out they dont deserve it.

also getting 2 work 4 ricky is their tip

>>5982925
if i want $1000 sneakers, i don't want to throw away hundreds of dollars just because I can.

some people wear designer clothes because they like it, not because they want to display how much money they have.

>>5982938
spoken like a true fuccboi.

>>5982944

>tipping someone for doing literally nothing other than having their name on the payroll
whos tha real fuccboi here

>>5982954
You are.

>>5982872
>I scrape together to dress outside of my income range but I don't want to learn the etiquette that goes along with it.

Niggerish shit mate.

>>5982917
>drop rick's name on a lot and act like you know him on a first name basis.
i love you /fa/

ppl who tip rick salespeople are buying rick for the status and not the design aesthetic. might as well just buy LV

>>5982954
>for doing literally nothing
confirmed for not shopping at boutiques

lrn2 personal shopping/ shopping appointments

oh wait, you wouldnt know what those are. you only shop at the mall and the most you've ever spent is maybe $1000

stay poor

This is the first time I'm hearing that people tip at retail stores. I was completely unaware.

>>5982966

lol uve obv never been 2 a rick store

>>5982974
>being this poor and ignorant
scum

>>5982973

rick stores operate in a different way to most high end boutiques. tipping @ rick is definitely about status.

>not being able to dress yourself
>having to throw around money to look good

>>5982976
>never had a shopping appointment before
you its true, the max youve ever spent is 1000...
lol

ITT: middle class college kids pretend to be rich

>>5982989
whether its rick, prada, brunello etc you always tip

>>5982994
>confirmed for having paychecks smaller then tips
stay jelly

what's tipping?

>>5983001
and can you explain why?

>>5983001
>>5982991
>>5982985
>>5982973
stop pretending to be rich no one believes you

why are you lying on 4chan srsly wtf

trust fund kiddies trying to create a real sense of self-worth by flashing stacks

protip: it wont work

If you can afford to buy the clothes, you can afford to tip well.

If not you're a posing little fuccboi wasting his welfare checks on clothes.

>>5983011
because they provide a service to you. they bring you your lothes, they converse with you to figure out your tastes and try and find other pieces you may like. they bring you refreshments and beverages, do special orders for you

what if ur shopping in one of his european stores? people don't tip over here

>>5983015

people who tip are obv the fuccbois buying in for the status

people who save hard and cant afford to tip are doing things rough to achieve a certain aesthetic. they're the real fans

>>5983029
>this is what the welfare kiddies on /fa/ actually believe.

You're a joke to Rick and his staff.

He's embarrassed by you and every time you wear his clothes you're devaluing the label.

>tfw you buy online and never have to tip

>>5983016
>flashing
tipping is proper ettique...
you dont tip at a restaurant?

>>5983036

if this was true ricky wouldnt be gareths sugar daddy

fuck off back to LV scum

>>5983042
buying korean fakes online doesn't count bruh

>>5983039

>americunts think their system is the only system

>>5983048
>eurotrash think their monopoly money is worth anything

that's why nobody tips in europe, the dosh is useless.

>>5983044
rick being gareths financial benefactor proves that its true...

>>5983029
>people who save hard and cant afford to tip are doing things rough to achieve a certain aesthetic. they're the real fans

those are called posers.

>>5983039
i tip at a restaurant, because the waiter has a job of taking your order, bringing you rinks and refills, bringing your food, etc.

a salesperson just operates a register and expects you to give them hundreds of dollars.

>>5983048
people tip at boutiques in europe

>>5983052
>>5983056
>>5983054
ur all literal retards

>>5983054

i guess you are right, in this economy staying employed is a privilege enough

>>5983036

Doesn't rick design skirts for men and bang a 1000 year old lady? He probably isn't embarrassed by much

>>5983061
>a salesperson just operates a register
confirmed for only shopping at the mall

This thread was started by Rick Owens employees in the hopes that some one would finally tip them

>>5983073
i was at the rick store in NY in february. they all just literally stand around and watch you look at clothes.

>>5983077
They came to the wrong place then because /fa/ is nothing more than a pit of welfare babies and fuccbois who couldn't afford to take the bus to the mall.

ITT

>>5983083
because they knew you was a cheap nigga and didn't bother helping you.

>>5983083
because youre obviously a fuccboi who wasn't going to drop cash

whats the point of helping a kid whos just going to be in and out the store in 5 min?

>>5983083
They size you up when you walk in the store.

They know who is going to spend and who is posing to say they went to the RO store.

>>5983095
stop pretending to be rich m8

talk shit post fit

>>5983095

this only confirms my assumption that people working at these places are snobs. why would i want to tip someone who views me as a walking wallet?

>>5983087
they shouldn't be getting hundred dollar tips then.

People don't actually tip on retail btw...

mfw I walk in and we just end up talking about the bis 4 fun.
l2benis

This is the most fuccboi ridden thread in weeks.

>>5983105
no, they view you as either a customer or a broke window shopping nigga

>>5983113
I can't even tell who's trolling and who's actually a fuccboi anymore.

>>5983108
well yeah, you didnt spend anything brokeboi

>>5982938
lol, u tuk him 2 da bar?

>>5983116

how do they arrive at the assumption im broke? just cuz im not decked out in full goofninja uniform?

>>5983124
no its because when you walked in you immediately looked around and looked through the racks

a real spender walks in, heads to the associate, talks to them and lets them do the sifting, while you sit down with the drink the provided for you

duh

>>5983134

maybe i should do that next time, make them exercise a little and leave when ive finished my free drink

le everything went better than expected

>>5983118

>>5982938
I was just in there and the asian sales associate was getting entire outfits for a lady to try on + talking to her about new pieces coming in

the asian dude was really nice to me as well
he was wearing a white rick tank and black shorts with bright yellow nikes - they weren't flyknit but still looked nice

who's trolling who? i've lost track

>>5983181
hohoho wOW!! jimminy crickets

>>5983175
>sales
how poor are you #LOL

>>5983194

what were you wearin?

>>5983015

i hope you dont actually believe this.

rick is an artist, not a business person. he's going to appreciate a student who has worked hard and saved all their money for weeks, then deciding they want to spend that money on a rick piece. the fact that theyve worked so hard, then decided that your art is what they want to spend that money on is the true reason for expressing yourself through design.

he isnt going to appreciate someone who walks in, drops racks as if his art is nothing, then walks out and adds it to the wardrobe.

anyone who thinks tipping at a rick store is necessary views rick as a label and not as an artist. the associates can see straight through your ASAP dickriding trust fund bullshit and paying them off wont win their approval

>>5983204
2 rick tanks, rick pod shorts and dbss sneakers

rick sales associates are all middle class at best and cant afford to tip themselves. they get minimum wage + just enough tips to get them up to a regular salary.

they're not going to disapprove of someone who is literally in the same position as them, devoting their limited time and money to a love of RO design

>>5983181
jst 4 u hun B)

>>5983203

>>5983265

lol @ ppl thinking rick values them as a customer because they tip his minions

you're just a walking wallet to fund his next collection for the real fans

>>5983265
lel, I didn't know he made underwear. have you got a picture or anything? how do you drape thongs? are you or are you not supposed to tuck your RO boxers inside your geobaskets?

dude i can recognition his levis u mong

>>5983500

Lel yea I do

>>5983486
a restaurant owner doesn't have to pay their waiters the minimum wage, and most of the time they don't. this is because it's a job that will get them tips. it's our law you moron

>>5983502

i usually shy from going to retail stores because i don't feel "cool" enough and i fear the staff will look at me condescendingly

>>5983459

resevoir dogs taught me two things: black and white looks great on almost anybody (except for steve buschemi, he's super hideous), and that if you tip you're going to inevitably die early

>>5983502
I have. And I haven´t ever worn anything that did cost more than 500 Euro.
You guys have to stop idiolizing shit designers, everybody can go to their shop, it´s not like you will be thrown out, because you wear no-name. There are also tons of people who look better with <500 euro outfits than most people wearing >5000 Outfits from RO, only. Goddamnit, this thread is just sad, if it isn´t a thread full of trolls.

Do sales people get tips in the states?

>>5986242
fuck no, why would they. It's their job.

>>5984549
This doesn't happen in America retard

>>5983734
yes. I don't know if anyone else does.

i think good as gold does silent but...silent ;s

>>5986248
I know they get commissions at higher end stores, since that's what I got back when I used to work em. Which was great, given that it was the luxury market you didn't have sells targets but got commissions on anything you sold.

>>5985967
Seriously, w2c?

>>5986277
I;ve always wondered that. Does the person serving you HAVE to sell the piece under their name to get the commission?

Often I've had someone else 'handle' me but then someone else is working the till.

I don't think commission is that common tbh.

Wait is this something specific to niche boutiques like RO????

I literally just spent over 10k on Chanel bags for my girl and have never even hear or though of tipping. They SA get commission, that is how they are compensated for helping you.

Same thing as when you purchase a car. They get commission and you talk the price down. Do you guys tip car salesmen, or are RO employees on an hourly wage rate?

>>5986294
We have a sheet under the till that we write down our name, what was sold, how much and if any discount was given so it doesnt matter who physically puts it through on the till the person who had the customer gets the comish

>>5986277
boutiques most likely get commission, but mall stores im pretty sure don't. I even asked someone in neiman marcus if they did before.

>>5986309
wut, im pretty sure neiman does, nordstrom as well

>>5986310
thx b

it's days like these when I realize that /fa/ is the most patrician board on 4chan

>>5986328
Sometimes I don't get /fa/, is this a troll thread or do people actually tip for clothes now?

>>5986314
nordstrom definitely not, at least here in california

>>5986383
Yes they do, I work at corporate

>>5982925
HAHAHAHA, I seriously hope your trolling right now. You must be "New Money" no one gives a fuck that you tip salespeople who don't do shit.

>>5982925
>having money and knowing the value of money are mutually exclusive!!!

No.

>>5983533

But he still gets fucked by the police at the end....so I dunno maybe dying would of been the easy way out instead of being fuckked inthe ass the rest of your life

this thread sucks so bad

>>5986294
I worked for an Italian fashion boutique in the mid 2000's.

You essentially put through sales with your employee ID, you usually passed the customer and items over to the counter and register clerk usually knew what to do.

No one ever said someone else's sale was theirs, and it was usually quiet clear whose sale belonged to whom since at a luxury boutique it was rarely ever gangbusters.

The exception would be if a tour group came in (we were on the ground floor of the Sheraton Hotel) but even then individuals within the group usually bought enough for sales to go around.

The switch is mainly because only senior staff are trusted to work with the counter and also you prevent employees blatantly giving people they knew discounts or free shit (happens)
