Now that I got a promotion, i'll be in public pretty often, and in my kind of business I need to get noticed. I need something to build a "character" that people will remember. Something crazy but not too much, some kind of accessory, clothing or something that will become my signature, something that people will wear to make my imitation at parties.

Any suggestions?
Exclude hairstyles, I'm shaved. Also raybans, everyone has them already.

How about you just make yourself known for your fits and charming personality? You don't really need to peacock if you adhere to a consistent aesthetic.

If you want, always incorporate a bit of a particular colour in your outfit, whether it's a pocket square or socks or an entire shirt. It's so easy to find interesting socks these days. Choose a colour that compliments your skin and is a distinctive shade, like chartreuse or carmine. If it's a colour, you can change it with seasons and won't get sick of a particular piece.

Well, you definitely need to peacock in my industry. Also, it may sound weird, but elegant people are not seen very well. And let's not forget that I may need to travel a lot, being elegant isn't always practical.

If you tell us what this business is, it won't compromise your privacy and may at the same time alleviate the impression that you're bullshitting us.

Oh.
Does it have to be crazy or can it just be a thing that most people in your industry don't wear? A scarf or pocket square or something?

I'd say it would be enough something no one else wears, but it has to be noticeable

IN ORDER TO APPEAL TO YOUR AUDIENCE, YOU MUST BE UN/FA/.

I'm sorry for the caps but I just want to make sure you get the fucking point. Your audience likes fedoras, memes and shit. If you are fashionable to any degree, you are seen as something they are not and you lose interest. Because of this, you're going to have a hard time. My suggestion is wearing a light scarf though they might think it turns you gay. You're probably just better off with a very solid constant wardrobe, just wear anything else than vidya tshirt and ill fitting jeans and you are different then the most, then just stick to it and they'll learn to distinguish you by it.

Also fucking suicide who the fucks works in vidya industry why the hell did you get me to write this.

pic related that's your fucking audience

I hate to say it, OP, but this guy has a point.You could also get a non-shitty fedora. They aren't created equal. The ones that get mocked around here are the felted wool kind, but you could wear a lightweight straw/ribbon one that would be barely acceptable.

A scarf will make me look gay, I agree.

What about something in the middle? Like skinny jeans, nice shoes and everything, but anime/vidya t shirts?

I'm very thin, if that matters

>> No.6582610

>>6582587
I think I'm too thin to wear a fedora without looking like a retard. I also have red hair and beard, definitively not suitable for fedoras.

Also, I can't shave my beard since my chin sucks, it's really unbalanced compared to my gigantic nose.

And let's not forget that the creator of Minecraft is already famous for his fedora

Being skinny is a problem. If your clothes fit too well, you'll look effeminate. Wear standard-cut and full-cut shirts and untapered jackets to look professional.

Then throw on a needlepoint belt. This is your signature.

Get at least a dozen, wear a different one every time you appear publicly.

I have a full beard how can I look effeminate?

Mmmh needlepoint belt... that's an idea...

Aren't those too "nerdy"? Id like to be the "cool" type of nerd, not the one that doesn't get laid
