a lot of womens clothing imitates that style...

looks awful

>>6370814
Yohji Yamamoto

>>6370839
i love how designers like him get recommended here all the time
you don't own a single piece by yohji

>>6370849
say that to my face bitch

>>6370819
Yeah, true, but I feel like a lot of times they feminize the style a bit too much and it ends up looking more like pic related than the original pic

>>6370839
His stuff looks extremely nice, and it's definitely up my alley but jesus christ that's expensive. Thanks for the rec, though, I'll keep a look out for cheaper stuff that resembles his.

>>6370814

There are plenty of womenswear designers who like those slouchy, garçonne sort of things.

>>6370857
Murder callout, aisle nine

>>6370858
>Yeah, true, but I feel like a lot of times they feminize the style a bit too much and it ends up looking more like pic related than the original pic

Then...look at designers that aren't as overtly feminine? Swedish brands do shit like this all the time.

But that kind of silhouette looks disgusting. It's like 80s pleb.

>>6370883

Vehemently disagree, but if you don't like this style, hiding the thread seems your best option.

Silly girl, /fa/ doesn't know anything about women's fashion.

looks good op. a rebellion against form fitting clothing pervasive in womens fashion

>>6370814
Its this with a belt you know? obvs in a dark blue or black

>>6370988
with maybe this as a belt, but yeah its basically workers overalls

>>6370988

>silhouette

>>6370997
if you want the silohouette start at what the persons wearing...

>>6371003

you're fucking retarded

OP is asking for clothes/fits that have the overall silhouette of her pic, she wasn't asking to ID the garment

>>6371026
Someone needs to chill out also "op is asking for clothes/fits that have the overall silhouette"
the picture I posted will give her the overall silhouette

> Should I wear actual men's clothing, or should I stick to women's clothes made to imitate this sort of style?

Wear women's pieces that work if you find them, but I think going with men's clothes and taking them to a tailor (for quick, simple fit adjustments - length, waist, etc.) is your best bet.

>shoes

Obvious answer is leather bluchers with soles and heels of the type commonly seen on Menswear. The ideal place to head for this would probably be Paraboot. They're somewhat pricy, though.

Wear them without socks.

You've got a ton of things you could do with this, though. Virtually any kind of boot, although personally I'd avoid combat boots, vintage-style or present. Not too feminine, more loafer-styled flats or just straight men's loafers would be perfect, too.

A style like this really gets modulated by the shoes so much, so it really depends on what you're trying to signify. Imagine that fit with a pair of brown calfskin bluchers with a hiking sole, a pair of red stilletos (pretty sure you don't want this, and it'd be my least favorite of what I'm listing, too), simple leather sandals, a pair of traditional American Red Wing style workboots, with RM Williams style workboots (this one's probably my personal favorite), engineer boots, a pair of simple European trainers, etc.

As far as where to cop, Dickies, Carhartt, any workwear company that sells coveralls. Not sure where you'd fine one in a bit better fabric than cheap poly-cotton

>>6371045

....right. So OP likes the silhouette of overalls, ask for brands/clothes that have said overall's silhouette. You suggest overalls because they will "give her the overall silhouette"

good job champ

And to appease the guy insisting we talk about clothes that aren't coveralls that have the silhouette of coveralls, well, other workwear. My first instinct would be to look at Filson for a shirt-jac top with a super lightweight, dark and drab merino tee under, tucked into Mountain Khakis for the bottom. Patagonia would be another place to look. A fit with Outlier Keirin Cut dungarees could be really interesting.

J. Peterman almost specializes in full, flowy cut women's pants. A quick look shows this season they're making linen overalls that'd go great with this. Their men's line is also cut very traditionally, for the most part. I'll dump a little off the site. They've got kind of an ill reputation, and quality ranges widely, but some of their stuff is great. I'd compare them to a dadcore AllSaints: often strong but not brilliant or original designs, decent but variable quality, always buy on sale, etc. etc.

Thrift shopping could also pay off quite well here - there's always so many big, relaxed fit men's pants around, and often a lot of shit-jacs too.

I think you'd be better off sticking mostly with womenswear, but you could use some menswear, it just might be a bit awkwardly fitted.

Yohji's already mentioned but is maybe the best place to look for inspiration.

Shoe-wise, I think >>6371138
is pretty bang on with the loafer suggestion, although I don't really know where would be good to cop.

Prada might be worth a look, I remember an exhibition I went to had some stuff that could fit with this look, albeit more severe and not really drapey, i dunno if you're into that.

>>6371178

Why post J. Peterman when there are brands that are known for this sort of look and do it in a way more sophisticated way?

>>6371179

Why would you recommend Prada first, when their women's shoes are mostly the sort of flight of fancy stuff that defines the runway collection?

If you're going to recommend boyish women's shoes, think of stuff like Woman by Common Projects, F-Troupe, Dieppo Restrepa, Repetto, Rachel Comey, etc.

>>6371189
It came to mind, and those brands didn't?

Who's that from?

These are cords from the men's collection that look like they could do well. Howard Yount does sophisticated, somewhat traditional cords, but I think they're all in a relatively modern, tighter cut. OP's talking the look of men's clothing from the '40s.

>>6371138
>>6371178
>>6371179
Thanks for all the advice! It was all pretty helpful, especially the shoe stuff since I had no idea where to go with those. So thrifting men's clothing + tailoring, stuff like J Peterman (which looks like what I'm looking for, pretty much) on sale, and traditional workboots sounds like what I'm going for.

>>6371205
because i was thinking about the espadrille platforms and these and some old ones i saw at an exhibition

your suggestions are probably better though so fair play

Oh i also think a good wool overcoat (if you live in a suitable climate) would be a good item for this kind of look

>>6371205
Oh fuck I'm really liking Dieppa Repetto, thanks for the rec. Would these shoes go with the kind of look I'm going for?

OP you're gross

random secretions/mucus comes out of your disgusting slime hole and then all of the sudden that shit just starts fucking bleeding once a month

and no, removing hairs that grow inside and near that disgusting fucking hole in your human body does not help it look more "pretty'

and throwing whale blubber and animal fat stained with colors does not make a disgusting tired looking human face pretty

and what is it about your segment of the human race that makes operating and maintaining a motor driven vehicle nealry impossible?

>>6371254
dunno if any of these appeal
also you might have luck thrifting something like this
check ebay too

>>6370849
why would you need to own a piece of yohji for a silhouette recommendation?? i can physically see the way his clothes fit without owning them and for whoever that's new and doesn't know of yohji it's a helpful and relevant recommendation

>>6371264

>>6371273

>>6371261
Your approach got old a year and a half ago. It's so formulaic, it might as well be a banner ad.

Try harder. Write better.

>>6371255
I meant Repstrepa, oops.

>>6371264
Definitely liking this. I've never really tried ebay for clothing but I guess there's a first time for everything.

>>6371276
looks different IRL poorfag

>>6371282
kind of undecided on whether this one is great or terrible

>>6371297
no @ both

>>6371299
celine might be worth a look too
this is prefall 13

>>6371255

Absoutely. I think you frankly should just look at La Garçonne and use that as your spring board, for ideas if not for actual purchases.

>>6371306
these trousers too? This is errrr balenciaga resort ss or fw 14 i think

>>6371284
women historically wore dresses becuase in the past, prior to the invention of the washing machine, women would soil pants, and consistanly get infected with the secreation buildup.

the invention of the skirt, helped women manage recreations by letting the mucus/and or blood drip down their leg to be washed in the local drinking supply at the end of the day.

now tell me why you think women aren't vile animals that should be locked in a cage?

>>6371255
these are really nice

>>6371301
it can be very hit and miss so it helps to know your measurements, and if you know about old quality brands then that can help with getting good vintage stuff

>>6371338

>>6371322
fuck off sieg

>>6371255
Definitely.

I don't know if this is real Sieg or whatever this shit is about trolls with his trip, but he needs to banned. Shit's gotten out of control.

>>6371349
not really sure if this is a boy or girl....

>>6371366

>>6371313
>>6371338
Alright, will definitely check ebay and La Garçonne out, thanks again!

>>6371321
I really like the look of this... Is this something where you have to go big with the real leather? Would it look tacky in a faux-leather material or something?

>>6371371

>>6371376
it really depends on the pleather to be honest
i'll try and find another pic hang on

>>6371376

Probably. There are mid-market brands you could go to, though. Contemporary boutique stuff that wouldn't be priced nearly as high as ready-to-wear.

>>6371390
that pic's jil sander btw

the joggers in this pic are topshop boutique, which retailed for £250.... which is a lot but way less than the balenciaga ones will be

http://www.cosstores.com/Shop/Women/Trousers

COS has a lot of trousers with that kind of silhouette for cheap-ish

>>6371400
you could just go for the shape though... perhaps some kind of nylon or satin or silk trousers would have a similar sheen but be less pricey

or even just jersey

>>6371414

>>6371419

>>6371426

>>6371437

>>6371452
oh oops that's sideways, you get the picture though

>>6371414
Yeah the main thing I was liking about those trousers was how it was pleated, though the leather helped.

>>6371437
So the jean alternate to trousers would be the boyfriend fit right? Would chinos work btw?

>>6371403
Everything there looks great but it doesn't ship to me, thanks anyway! I'll keep it in mind if I ever go to Europe.

>>6371465

Boyfriend fit is definitely an option. You could also do something in a paperbag waist, which would go a long way towards giving you that feminine, but not girly sort of thing you're after.

>>6371465
i'm sure you can find something pleated fairly easily... vintage menswear is probably worth a look but require quite a lot of adjustment

yeah boyfriend fit is probably what you're after, and i think chinos could work too, as long as they're not too formal a material

>>6371484

>>6371484

I really don't understand why you keep suggesting menswear. There is no dearth of designers making this sort of anti-sexy sexy stuff.

women's clothing is too #complicated sometimes.

OP you should look into some of Wang's stuff from F/W 10

>>6371510
Why do you keep suggesting womenswear?

>>6371510
because i'm a man and i know more about menswear than womenswear

i want to learn more though so give me some names b
my gf will probably be interested too

anyway here's some "boyfriend chinos", carhartt iirc

>>6371481
>>6371484
The paperbag waist is definitely appealing to me, will give it a go. I always figured that tailoring would be a part of this look so I don't mind.

Anyone have any ideas for incorporating pops of color into this style? My main palette will probably be deep jewel tones, black, and nude. I guess I could maybe fit in some loud shoes or a belt maybe.

>>6371571

A belt, a piece of jewelry. Silk takes color so well, you could do something colorblocked (in cut or print or whatever). Look for trims on things, notions with color (e.g. drawstrings, buttons).

>>6371571
prints
trainers/shoes, yeah
colour blocking

i'll try and find some pictures

>>6371597
this is quite loud but you might like it idk

>>6371601

>>6371615
not colourful but maybe relevant

>>6371619
ditto

>>6371631

>>6371640
hats/scarves/bags, even socks can be a good way to introduce colour without being overwhelming

>>6371601
I actually like the one on the right. I'll keep an eye out for anything resembling that, it'd make a great statement piece.

>>6371583
>>6371645
I'm pretty clueless when it comes to jewelry, so I'll probably stick with the colorblocking and prints. Any bag suggestions? I feel like I wouldn't need bags because of the deep pockets, but you never know.

>>6371659
bags really aren't my area of expertise i'm afraid
cambridge satchel company perhaps, if you want something statement-y but quite masculine? Fairly reasonably priced as well

pic fairly related i guess?

ebay/etsy/thrift vintage workwear

make sure you look immaculate (read: not caked and/or overdone) on every other gurl beauty dept (hair, face, etc)

The manly style for women lies in a fine line between 10/10 /fa/ as fuck, would gf woman and feminazi butch lesbian

PS: If you're ugly, pls don't bother

>>6371714
I like the contrast between the whole masculine look and the more feminine bag in your pic. Thanks for all the suggestions /fa/, it's been great!

>>6371659

Luckily enough, colorblocking in bags is huge.

>>6371761
Go away.

Bump.
