/fa/ - Fashion

Texas State University, San Marcos. Soon to be Baruch in NYC. Cannot wait (although, let's be serious, it's a CUNY school)

>how do people dress

Terribly. Worse than people dress in a Walmart in Alabama. H&M is considered "high fashion" here. Usually you'll see oversized oxfords with jcrew chorts and sandals. If not that, neon tank tops with cargo shorts.

>how /fa/ is your school (0-10)

0, easily.

>>6708668
trade school

0

:(

I have never seen anyone seriously lay on the lawn and actually study like that. It must be a tumblr thing.

>>6708706

that is /fa/ as fuck you retard.

>>6708668
>Where do you go?
Starting my first year at University Of Waterloo in September

>How do people dress?
Lots of asians at the school. They'll probably be the most /fa/, but even still it's just blue jeans and t-shirts. White people dress like average shitty white people - Volcom/Billabong tank tops, cargo shorts, yoga pants on the girls.

Lots of nerds too, they'll probably dress like /v/ or /g/ neckbeards.

For comparison, Carleton and OCAD University are pretty well-dressed schools.

>How /fa/ is your school? (0-10)
Gonna go ahead and give it a 3.

>>6708714
if i was shooting up my school theyre who i'd shoot first

>>6708729
reported for terrorist threats

>Where do you go?
Community college (shutthefuckup)

>How do people dress?
Awful for the most part. Lots of cheap sweats, gym shorts, that kind of shit. Most people don't understand how sizes work.

>How /fa/ is your school? (0-10)
I'll be generous and say 2, there are a few people that at least try (and a small handful that actually dress pretty well)

>>6708714

it's more of a stock photo thing

College of Charleston
Not too great. Sometimes you'll see a good fit, but it's rare.

>>6708746
>>6708746
Where are you going?

chester, uk here

pretty much generic chino wankers, lots of qt's though, nice town with a few boutiques. i come from manchester so it's an improvement to say the least

>>6708750
Brighton, England

is glasgow effay? http://lesgarconsdeglasgow blargspart com/ hasnt been updated in ages

Tiny private school in maryland

Either intentionally wacky (clashing colors, trippy patterns) or like an autist. But there's a decent minority of hipsters that are pretty /fa/.

Overall like a 4/10. It's no NYU.

>>6708766
i thought that was edinburgh or at least the east end

>>6708761
Just hope everyone is on heroin

UCLA

Being such a huge fucking school, there's a mix. Some people are 0's and others are 10's. It's hard to put a single number on the school but I guess I'd go with 7/10. It definitely sounds 1000x more /fa/ than any of the unis in here so far

Ryerson university
Downtown Toronto
Pretty famous fashion design program
Qts everywhere but lots of hipsters

7/10

i visited most of the UCs and none seemed /fa/

Berkeley - lots of comp sci nerds and pseudo-hippies

Santa Cruz - the same

Santa Barbara - white ppl that want to get laid

San Diego - same as Berkeley but I saw some Koreans that prolly got plastic surgery and wore yesstyle stuff (albeit kinda well tbh)

Irvine - Berkeley

LA - didn't see enough but i would think it to be the most /fa/

>going to UCSD this fall

NYU
Varies a lot
7/10

>>6708769
You're probably right, I just went by accent haha.

[from October anyway]

from what I've seen from walking around the place on visits etc its like the non-autist-looking middle class white kids make an effort (which can occasionally go well, but often less so), the vast majority of the many asians dress uniformly badly, and the seriously academic looking (autistic) kids don't bear thinking about

so I'll say a preliminary 4/10. my hopes aren't high.

on the plus side my accommodation is p. /fa/, plus I have like £6k to spend on clothes over the year

>>6708767
>in maryland
What school?

>>6708778
im going into my first year at ryerson i cant wait to live around an abundance of brown girls

>>6708796
a fair few qts there tho. some cute asian girls

>Where do you go?
Washington University.
>How do people dress?
Mostly jeans and tshirt. Some of the graduate students wear more formal attire.
>How /fa/ is your school? (0-10)
The school buildings are probably an 8, the people are a 4.

>>6708731
Pussy, should of gone to Western

Any Western kids?

>>6708807

oh really? tends to be pretty cliquey (i.e racially segregated) though from what I hear
so probably no qt 3.14 azn gf in the pipeline

to be fair I'm judging only by what I've seen on visit days when the place was practically dead.

>University of Otago, NZ

Borderlines entry level and pleb tier a lot
> Heaps into that herschel/i love ugly/gram/nudie/entry level boutique stuff.
> Small percentage a little above
> The rest are pretty pleb

See some qts though

7/10

western illinois

niggers/10

>>6708796
universities in london are so weird

i was at madame tuassauds a few months back and the university of westminster is right across the road, i find that really strange

Upenn. Dress in general is pretty preppy, I see a lot of people dressing well. Undergrads probably get an 8/10, grad students get like a 3/10 as all grad students usually do. Overall I'd say 7/10.

>>Where do you go?
University of Miami
>How do people dress?
Disgusting. oversized free school tshirt + basketball jeans + bizarrely colored sneakers, or the infamous socksnsandals
>How /fa/ is your school? (0-10)

What is the building in the OP's pic it looks almost exactly like Brookings and I thought it was WashU for a second

>>6708714
I tried to do it once 'cause it was in every college brochure ever. It's awkward, the wind blows your papers everywhere, and I gave up after 2 minutes. Solid for just reading I guess

Syracuse University
Most people dress preppy. girls love LF
7/10

1. University of Kansas

2. A wide range that includes the following:
>Prep
>Frat
>Dadcore
>Workwear
>Hippiecore
>Basic level
>Streetwear

A lot of these fits come from UO, HM, and GAP. All the fratties end up wearing Brook's Brothers and J. Crew, and end up looking like douchebags.

All the rest look like shit, though.

3. On the /fa/ scale . . . 4/10. It's the best I can do.

small catholic school in MD

some frat-tier (vineyard vines, southern tide, etc), some pleb-tier (american eagle, a&f, hollister), some athlete-tier (sweatpants/yoga pants and hoodies/north faces).

there's this one autist who wears a leather jacket and smells like cigarettes all the time but there arent a ton of autists on campus.

4/10

>>6708840

Its cool though, you can't possibly be bored + I'm living in Bloomsbury next year (pic related) so I can avoid all the shithole areas - at least for year one.

So much better than living on a campus somewhere like Warwick

Haverford College

Mostly just college name clothing, cargo shorts with t-shirts, no effort etc.

Some hippiecore, some preppy, some /fa/ people.

Pretty much what you would expect from a liberal arts school.

im finna apply for law for '14. i liked york but ima go back and check out the law school. I can easily get my grades up to A*AA with by just gaining a couple of makrs in an old AS politics exam and im gonna check out Kings college and hope they dont mind one resit (It WAS from AS, and i was ill at the time, as is noted on my medical history). Cant get into the other london unis (ucl require B grade maths gcse (mfw i got a c kek) nd lse are super uptight about resits, so even that one AS resit might be enough to not them take me)

idk if i even wanna go to uni in london thogh. heard some horror stories lol. some people make no friends. has some good aspects to it tho

>>6708714
I've seen people do it at my university, but it's pretty difficult to write when you don't have a desk.

Bunch of fucking hipsters. need some real non faggot bros at this school srs - /fit/

>>6708783

>>6708869

>idk if i even wanna go to uni in london thogh. heard some horror stories lol. some people make no friends

depends where you live, what your halls are like etc, and pot luck. but yeah it probably is more difficult in that sense than your average uni. still, nightlife and stuff can maybe make up for it a little

>>6708951
nah if i'm finna namedrop something i'll just say "you'll cowards don't even listen to death grips" and give them a hipster scoff then walk away

>>6708961

>death grips

>name-dropable
>even that 'hipster' anymore

I really doubt there's any college (in the us at least) that is anything above a 4-5/10 on average, so take these ratings with a grain of salt.

>>6708962

nah mang I don't know a patrick/aquinas especially not as in me being him, just another anon

aquinas is a p sexy name doe

Is UGA /fa/? I'm not /fa/, i still need to lose weight, but I'm pretty sure Athens is a pretty /fa/ city.

>>6709012

Any other UIC bros here?

Can't really comment on the fashion because I'm only just transferring there this semester, but I like what I've seen so far.

I mean Chicago is /fa/

We got Barney's and goff boutiques

>>6708951
im not a faggot

Pretty damn un-/fa/, although its in Sac so you cant hope for much. You have the ghetto blacks who wear the typical oversized autist shit, the athletes who wear adidas sandals and high socks everywhere, a few frat boys but very few surprisingly, a lot of caked up think their the shit white girls. I saw one guy last year who had on literally the best fit I have ever seen irl but he only walked past me a few times so I never got to compliment him on his fits. I am 90% sure he posts on /fa/ just cause his style but I have never seen him in a WAYWT. So bro if your on here, you got sick fits and we should kick it.

>>6709020

would the same apply with for example a survey of the main aspects of China's economic growth in the very long term from c.1000 AD to 1800 alongside a study of general models/themes in Chinese economic history? or am I fucked?

>>6709064

I thought you didn't want to talk about your alma mater, poet

A Community College (inb4; I'm transferring to University of Chicago next year) in the midwest. Guys typically dress in hunter camo pieces with mom jeans and ugly ass bulky boots or as typical bros. Girls usually dress how you would expect for college girls who don't know anything about fashion. On a scale of 1-10, I think a 2 or 3, just for the occasional well dressed person.

>>6709100

Pretty /fa/ as I go to design school in NYC.

>>6709116

No you wont. I will kill you the first time you try anything.

>Where do you go?

Terribly as it is predominantly an engineering school. Girls: cowboy boots and oversized sorority event shirts. Guys: Just random clothes, little to no thought put into appearance.

>>6709191
Its probably decently /fa/, being in the heart of Chicago and all. What I will warn you about is the drill freshman and sophomores like all hell (they try to weed people out the first couple of years) and the stress gets to people pretty bad. Apparently they have the highest suicide rate of any school in the country. I'm not trying to dissuade you at all, it's a great school.

>>6709212

>>6708985
I'd go there for state conferences in this high school organization I was in, and it's pretty /fa/ in the fall, but in the summer (really, the hotter Georgia days extending into early September) it's all pretty trashy. Lots and lots of qt3.14's though

guys whats an effay school in NYC

NYU isn't an option, neither is columbia, I have good grades but I want to go somewhere I can get a free ride. So like, i'm thinking an average, mid-tier school is where i could get a lot of financial aid

so are their any average schools in NYC that have a /fa/ student body? I mean, being in NYC i doubt you could really have a school that's un/fa/

The thing is though, i think it would have to be in Manhattan or brooklyn, wouldn't want to live in the bronx or anywhere lame. Are there actually dorms for places in manhattan? because if i had to have an apartment it would expensive as fuck

Fuck i don't even know how many schools are in manhattan

>>6709064
>>6709117

I fucking left that piece of shit school, spill the story oh my god

i wonder if I know you

>>6709292
SUNY. Fordham. Pace.

Yeah there are Manhattan dorms but they're about as expensive as getting an apartment with a room mate anyway.

Heading to University of Michigan in two days. Probably going to be about a 3 or 4/10 on the /fa/ scale. Lots of engineers who dress like shit and lots of fratbros.

>>6709270

4/10

>>6708783
UCSD is a terrible place.

You will inevitably end up with classes a mile apart with 10 minutes to get there. And you will be outnumbered by chinks. And there is basically zero party scene.

>>6709009
I can agree with the typical frat attire, but I see good looking girls quite often.

>>6709469
you cant buy rick owens on minimum wage

I go to the University of Southern Maine. People dress two ways- locals wear sweatshirts and light jackets during the winter, out of state students wear bulky ass coats. Under the outerwear is usually some pretty basic bitch stuff. 6/10, some qt3.14s raise the bar occasionally.

I go to Albany

The guys usually wear Hollister, Abercrombie, American Eagle. The girls think they're fashionable but all wear yoga pants and Uggs. I've seen very few /fa/ people, but I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who browses here.

I'd give it a 3. Most students aren't trying to be fashionable anyway, but the ones that are, are a fucking mess.

There's a website that blogs photos of colleges, so I'm sure you could just look up SUNY Albany. Don't remember the name.

I'll probably end up transferring out.

>>6709381

University of Melbourne, Australia

Hipster capital of Australia (read: southern hemisphere). Lot's of Asians too. Overall pretty decent I'd say, good vibes all around.

8/10

>>6709292
As someone who's lived in NYC all their life let me warn you that the city is only as /fa/ as you make it out to be.

It's not like you wander out into the street and everyone around you is dressed in Yohji, Owens, etc.

The same goes for colleges within the city. The worse your school is, the worse people will dress.

Don't expect that your life will be something straight out of Girls.

If your life doesn't revolve around a /fa/ profession, and the people around you aren't /fa/ who themselves have /fa/ hobbies and professions then NYC is going to be pretty average.

Even then people who are /fa/ are pretty tight knit within their close circle of friends, and you'll have a hard time breaking in unless they find you charismatic, as /fa/ as them, or have access to drugs or some sort of other connection.

>>6709593
I live really close to GMU, and actually skate the campus (especially the top parking deck and the hill leading down from it) pretty often.

As for being in school with stupid people, just know that it happens pretty much everywhere. I had that same experience at VT, and also at W&M now that I transferred.

>>6709722
That's fine that you don't know where your life is heading. Everyone is always uncertain.

I'm just saying that if your working at Subways or Pinkberry don't complain that your life and co-workers are un-/fa/.

Go to places where /fa/ people would hang out.

Meet as many people as possible. This doesn't mean that you have to befriend them but be friendly towards as many people as possible, because they'll have connections and more friends.

My best friends have been people I've met through friends.

true, we do have a decent barneys which is nice. only one goof boutique (for men) tho, which kinda sucks. there are at least 2 goof stores for women i know of besides barneys, they need 2 check their privilege

I chose Waterloo because my program isn't offered anywhere else in Canada (or if it is, it's not as good). That said, if I had gone for just liberal arts or something, Western would have been one of my top choices. London's great.

I know, it's ridiculous. There was a high fashion store down a little south in the short north, but they didn't really have anything below 200 dollars and went out of business because everyone's a poor college kid.

>>6709745
GMU has some really sick spots man. That parking deck is insane. I'd like to attempt to slalom the whole thing on my longboard if I wasn't worried about getting smashed by some professor in their land yacht.

>>6709910
I see now that I didn't specify, but yeah I use a longboard there. The hill from the deck can be pretty nerve wracking with all of the intersections you just have to blow through with your fingers crossed, but it's a lot of fun. I've been meaning to bring an airhorn with me to keep cars out of the way.

Also the deck itself is really convenient (double ramps, lots of elevators) as long as you can duck under the gate thing halfway down.

Arizona State University
Tons of university gear (yellow and maroon), and general light preppy, frat, and dudebro jock wear for the hot weather. The engineering department being much worse. Some interesting shops nearby (Buffalo Exchange, etc).

>How /fa/ is your school? (0-10)

5ish. H&M-tier clothing appears to be the norm. There are a lot of hipsters who think they know about fashion when they really don't.

no one in tulsa or okc sells rick

>>6709833
Everyone /fa/ that I've met usually dabble in something artistic.

They're writers, musicians, artists, fashion designers, etc.

The problem is that there is also a lot of people in these fields who think they're /fa/ but act pretty pretentious despite having nothing to show for it.

Let's say you're a musician. If you practice at your music consistently, join a band, go to shows, perform shows, then you'll meet people with the same interest as you. You'll weed through them and eventually find people who are /fa/.

You don't have to be a musician but indulge yourself in something you find productive and go out of your way to meet people.

>>6709321

there are a bunch of hip people at Michigan too. those engineers you talk about spend a lot of time on north campus, while there's more people from LSA on central campus. btw kerrytown is like the brooklyn of ann arbor (I know that's a shit comparison). live there after the dorms if you want to be around /fa/ people. and hang out north of south university; that's bro city.

remember it's a fucking huge school that's really expensive, so there's definitely still a lot of /fa/ people, even if it's a really small percentage overall.

UofT.
It varies.
I'm not qualified to compare it to other universities.

they do in dallas another sprawling shit hole like chicago.

the only reason chicago exists is because it was a port with access to the now worthless federally subsidized agriculture hub of the midwest. it's irrelevant in the 21st century soon it will be detroit. sorry for your loss.

Enjoy the weirdest people you'll ever meet. I go to Olaf and I was on the bus one day to Target, this girl got on at Carleton and she was wearing mismatched socks with flats, a floral skirt, t-shirt, denim vest and the same pair of glasses my aunt has had since the mid 70s. If you want to meet attractive bitties head across the river. Or if you want to meet someone who can actually hold a conversation.


>Where do you go?
St Olaf College
>How do people dress?
Lots of hipsters, people dress well, you get looked down upon if you wear sweatpants outside the dorm, the athletes are looked down upon, no greek life so very few frat bros, girls constantly wear the mocs/uggs, yogas, and flannel combo which is only kind of ok since there are a lot of nice asses on campus. Or if it's winter they'll put on their black Northface jacket, that every single other girl has.

>>6709102
It's not my alma mater, I graduated elsewhere. after taking a year off and starting over.

>>6709085
>>6709117
A lot of reasons. Primarily for being a druggy psychopath who never went to class. I had alot of fun, but it was a dark time. I did get to spend two days naked in bed with a beautiful rich girl who had her own horses stabled nearby. We spent the entire time sniffing heroin and holding each other. She cried a lot, but would never tell me why.
Another time, we threw a rager and got our kegs confiscated, so half of us distracted campus police while the other half of us broke into their patrol cars with crow bars & slim jims, stole our kegs back, stole two more kegs and an empty (dat deposit, bb). We hid them in the woods and continued partying.
Really was a shitty school, though. Met some real idiots. I didn't want to be there, my first choice wouldn't take me so I said fuck it, ran everything deep into the ground and started over as a freshman in a NY City college. I got my act together, pulled straight A's for two years in a row and re-applied to my first choice every chance I got. Eventually, they took me.

>>6708714

Did u just cut contact with all ur old friends when u got ur shit together?
I love them but I feel like they are holding me back and I'm not sure if they have any dreams outside of making ends meet and shoveling things into their noses.

>>6709299
>i wonder if I know you
Probably not, this was more than 10 years ago.
I think that the administration had a good idea of what I was up to, how many capers I was pulling, etc, but the only thing they could prove was that I never went to class.

>>6710177
>Did u just cut contact with all ur old friends when u got ur shit together?

I've had to cut contact multiple times. Well, I haven't *had* to per se, I just reached the same conclusion you did and stopped returning phone calls. People, places and things will drag you down to a life you don't want to lead. It's easiest to get rid of the people sometimes.

>>6710177
>I love them but I feel like they are holding me back
Lol, how entitled are you. You actually think your friends can hold you back in life. Top laughs. Don't blame your friends for you failures, kid. If your friends don't have your own interests then why the fuck are they your friends? Take some responsibility for your own life please.

Some people kind of just bring chaos with them wherever they go. The worst examples somehow manage to create these perfect storms of circumstance and personality that just drag everyone nearby into the fray like a psychic whirlpool.
It doesn't preclude you from loving them, it just means you avoid them if you're walking a tightrope for whatever reason.

Sometimes, you'll change yourself and realize that afterwards you don't quite see the same things in a person.

>>6710199

sometimes I see asian du's in visvim tho

>>6710195
It's a long story but yeah you're right they aren't the reason I haven't accomplished everything I wanted too yet. And we used to have a lot more in common, now they are addicts who wont admit they are addicts and I'm starting to worry that I can't help them.
>>6710189
That being said it seems like they can only be helped if they want it for themselves.

So can community college ever be /fa/?

I'm a senior and I'm gonna probably go to one.

>>6710281
no
work ur way up to a uni tho

I go to UT.

Nothing but fratbros everywhere. Northface,yogapants (not really complaining on this one), uggs, basketball shorts, school shirts, burnt organge shit everywhere.

The people are friendly tho.

>>6710231
I had to cut contact with a friend once. It was a kind of sad thing, but I didn't see another option. He was on a downward spiral; some mix of his inability to succeed in anything he tried to get into after high school (even had a relative who pulled strings to get him into the military and he gave up on it because he couldn't handle the commitment) and his insecurity about his height and intelligence. He started to become more and more obsessed with height; I've never heard someone talk so much about how tall or short people were. He would get mad about "tall guys taking all the short girls". He started drinking all the time and lying to everyone and cheating anyone, even when he didn't have to. He hated himself and everyone else.

Eventually I realized that if I had to cut him out of my life before he became completely unstable. My only reason left for being his friend was feeling sorry for him.

But I also know what it feels like to be the friend 'left behind'. It's hard to hold on to friends who have regular access to ostensibly cooler friends. I've spent as much time as anyone else brooding and thinking about the verse from Brothers by The War on Drugs, "Looking out from somewhere, I've been thinking / I've been rolling past the seas / Wondering where my friends are going / And wondering why they didn't take me."

The worst part is that you know it's only your fault. I would never blame them for wanting better. Friendship can hurt like hell.

>>6710347
Thank you for this very real & honest post.

>But I also know what it feels like to be the friend 'left behind'.
This, too, hits home for me. A recurring theme from my youth and earlier teen years was that of being left out. Picked last, ditched, ignored & left out. Man, does it hurt sometimes, but it's like you said - I was pretty lame, not interesting to be around. Not until 18-19 did I figure it out. It was my fault all along.

>>6710347

what happens if you're on your way to a party dressed like a pleb to blend in, and on the way, you pass by some guy straight out of sz forums with a really sick fit, and what if he was the most interesting guy you'd know if you had met him, and what if he would have struck up conversation if you had been wearing your best fit

what if there was a girl at that party who loves designer stuff but dressed normally to meet guys, and neither of you two noticed each other

who knows how many opportunities to impress people you miss by choosing to blend in with the normals

I hope the sex was great when you banged converse girl but is that all you want out of life

the majority of public school is pleb.. the majority of any school is pleb actually. I've been to RISD and Brown, the majority there was also pleb H&M/jcrew tier at best.

your cousin probably goes to like art institute of california LA, orange, hollywood, or something which is all upper middle class or rich people. obviously the people in design schools are going to be more design interested and their dress will reflect that.

So fucking bad, mom jeans, video game t-shirts absolutely no originality. There's no shame here, the word 'hipster' gets thrown around by most everyone whenever they see something different or unusual. Girls are just boring/basic yoga pants / uggs / northface or generic greek stuff. Lots of straight up hags with a middle school wardrobe.
