/fa/ - Fashion

Holy shit, if you ask for that you're being literally literally literally dressed by the internet

If this thread isn't a joke, delete it and think about life for a while

all you have to do is be attractive and wear whatever as long as it fits

Clarks Desert Boots
Levi's 511s
White converse lows
Ray-Ban clubmasters
red chinos

these are the ones i see most commonly

is this bait or are you honestly this uncreative

>>7608590

also

CDG Chucks
Black levi's 511s
Roshes

a lot more rare but this is something a /fa/ browser would wear. most cheap monochrome fits are p.bad

dead at those cuffs with that chain

fuck man if I knew how I would spam this thread all the time to try and sink the husk this forum has become in the past year.

>>7608590
Besides the Red chinos all those items seem fine and are common to find that its not very internetish

>>7608585
I think he means things like red chinos and things that arent too common that they would stand out and be something that would be discovered only if you frequent boards.

OP items that i think that make you look like you are dressed by the internet from the top of my head are things like

Common Projects
Gothninja type brands.
A lot of raf shoes
GATs

I wouldve added hitler youth type hair but thats pretty much the standard haircut now of this gen.

>>7608628

the thing is, people that wear CPs, Rick Owens, and Raf usually style it well and not straight out of an infographic

everyone on sufu is dressed by the internet, but they look good and it usually fits their personalities

babby-faced people in MFA-core do not look natural and are styling straight from infographs

Fashion is derivative by nature.
This thread is balls retarded.

>>7608640

these are generalizations, mind you, but the main point is that EVERYONE is dressed by the internet in this day and age

the point is, get a genuine style. it's a process.

>>7608599
how to do cheap monochrome well?

don't look at an infographics and WAYWT for a how-to guide, look at it for ideas on how to improve your current style.

building a unique and personal style is a gradual process. it takes trial and error.

I was a aweful dressed-by-the-internet fuccboi for months after finding /fa/.

>>7608660

invest in your shoes

get your jeans tailored to perfection

get james perse tees on ebay

that's what i would do

>>7608660
if you're looking to get into the monochrome fuccninja look. you need the funds to do so.

if you're not willing to spend a large portion of your income on a style, you won't be willing to put enough effort into achieving that style.

>>7608678
Does monochrome always mean goofninja?

Avant Garde fashion is inherently (nearly) impossible on a low budget.

>>7608676
what shoes, hopefully getting common projects soon but seller isn't getting back to me.

>>7608640
I agree with this, compare monochrome fits from here compared to ones on sufu for example

sufu ones actually looks like it blends with their personality and each clothing item looks great together (when factoring the surroundings etc)

ones you find here are just regular black jeans, regular crew neck tshirt which looks a bit tight. then BAM rick owens, common projects in your face. This look ends up looking very forced and internety cos it isnt put together too well so it ends up looking 'dressed by the internet'

>>7608651
>EVERYONE is dressed by the internet in this day and age

Sometimes it looks really natural which is good then sometimes it really shows which is bad.

I think OP is trying to avoid looking like the bad. Usually those types are when people rush to certain default brands thinking it will all of a sudden make them look like the pics they see on sufu.

>>7608599
is an old black hoodie, maharashi custom pants, and black NB and a Casio F91W fuccboi monochrome status?

>>7608705

common projects are a good choice

>>7608708

sounds fine to me. you could always post a fit to find out

>>7608628
>red chinos
so instead he wants to look "dressed by chino wankers that frequent river island and h&m" or "dressed by front pages of tabloids at the chow-mein takaway"?

the irony is, people that wear CDBs blue button down pastel vneck tan chinos actually scream "i'm dressed by the internet, askmen is my bible"

>>7608705
monochrome isn't always goof, but that's usually what people on /fa/ are talking about when they say monochrome.

use colours with black and grey, but mostly muted and natural colours. it's much better than monochrome.

>>7608640
>>7608701
can someone link me to waywt thread on sufu?

>>7608580
>wallet chain

>>7608725
r u serious

Do you need someone to wipe your ass to?

OP here, these guys get it. Mainly occured to me when i found the guy in my op on sf. This is a pic of him which i believe is older than the orig pic

guy looks like a total stiff whose tastes are dicatated by internet people that it really shows. I mean in some photos he looks like a #menswear stiff who would go on about 'quality' and craftsmenship of the clothes

then the next pic he is some hipster with tattoos that dont suit him

Ends up looking very confused

>>7608580
the irony of this thread
i see it

>>7608839
the most massive faggot in teh galaxy

>>7608744
Well it all looks like garbage. Although I will admit, the one lunarcore fit didn't look awful.

>>7608839
Jeeesus Christ, that fucking cuff.

>>7608839
whoof...
i bet that guy occasionally gets drunk and goes on the most rediculous wannabe elitist fashion guru tangents at his friends and pisses them all of at him even more than the usual. i wanna hear what sort of shit he starts slingin when that goes down...

>>7608744
>tfw you learn everyone shits on trunks fits at sufu

>>7608839
My gawd does that guy have a stick up is ass.

What was up with all those forum people with those leather chain things. Always looked lame as fuck.

Even more so when most of em were Asians who never did a days labor wearing all hard wearing clothes

>>7608839

>Help! How do you get my own personal style?!
Can't believe this board, fuck off, OP.

>>7608660

1. buy expensive shoes, fuccboi.

2. disregard what anyone says about black jeans, unless you want something extra nice like DNA's or something with insane length for stacks. 510's or 511's in black stretch are fine. sufu gets behind them. acne max/ace cash is a waste of money

3. come to terms with the fact that you'll never look like a stylezeitgeist user on a budget. you also might need to move away from complete monochrome if you want to keep it interesting.

4. shoes like sk8-his are fine but don't try to wear them like they're geobaskets. shoes like docs are fine but don't try to wear them like they're guidis.

5. !!!!!!!! BE IN SHAPE !!!!!!!! this is really important. you should be lean with a fair amount of muscle mass (unless you have the exact proportions of a model, height and all) but most importantly your body should be V shaped otherwise you won't cant in to do silhouette

6. diy

7. buy used dumbass

8. don't buy anything from allsaints or oak unless you can get it on a ridiculous discount. VTB and Ovate are okay.

>>7610646

9. use varying shades of gray, almost forgot that one

>>7610649

10. expand your tastes and stop looking at the same shitty pictures of 2010 era sufu

>>7610652

11. rick owens is really not that interesting

>>7610655

>>7610655
he actually is

>>7610669

no, he's actually fucking boring

everything he makes is just testosterone in clothing form, it's all based on weightlifters and bikers. he's not a bad designer but he is not very interesting. he's babby's first high fashion.

there are dozens of designers out there who are doing something way more interesting

You make fashion boards sound way more mainstream than they actually are. These sites are very niche, you could literally make yourself a classic MFA clone with CDB's, lite blue OCBD, and mustard chinos, and 99.5% of people you meet on the streets would never make the connection.

>>7610674

the only other "well-respected" designer on /fa/ who is more boring than rick is hedi slimane, who seems more concerned with throwing shit fits about people making fun of his brand and telling people they shouldn't attend fashion shows than he is with clothing

>>7610683

plus he doesn't even dress well

>>7610669

>>7610655
uncle leo?

>>7610710
lmao

>>7610646
cop shoes??

>>7610905
Allsaints Cropped Military Boot

rick(-inspired) shoes

seriously you most likely would not be pulling them off correctly that it ends up looking very internet

Also as much as it saddens me to say this. ma-1 bomber jackets are starting to look very internet

>>7608997
OP here, i know what you mean

Looking at his fits he seems to have many pairs of raw jeans. Seems like the type who would spew on about 'muh quality selvedge, itll last a lifetime' but because he has so many pairs he'll never even wear them out enough to get any fades.

I dont think ive ever even seen a fit with some broken in jeans

>>7608590
whats wrong with 511s?

>>7612408
but then again, parkas are pleb-tier now so there's only long coats left.
>tfw I own a ma-1 (don't see how they look internet though) and am tempted to buy dreamboxes (kek)

the thing is: do you want to look like you get your inspiration from more or less obscure (/fa/-excluded) internet sites or do you want to look like someone who gets his inspiration from low-tier retailers/stars/other pleb shit

>>7612451
>parkas are pleb-tier
Maybe ones with faux fur hoods, yes.

>>7612436

nothing wrong with them, but if they're styled with an OCBD and Clarks, it's obvious why you're wearing a pair

Wearing a blazer casually with a t shirt and pre distressed jeans
Wearing a busy jacket with shit layers underneath like a solid T
Converse or Vans
Desert boots
Boat shoes

>>7612436
Nothing normalfags wear levi 511s

>>7612465
especially those ones, yes. In the past 1-2 years parkas have became boring though as they are really easy to pull off and worn by everyone. The only parkas that may still be "admired" by me are CM-parkas (bart/bayani, albeit a bit boring) and the higher-end parkas (e.g. teddy's drkshdw-parka)

>>7612430

>>7612486
lmfao holy shit

>>7608839
See, this is much worse than wearing a fedora with an epic maymay tee imo.

>>7612489

so what is left now? back to peacoats?

>>7608839

lel@first fit, looks like something denim dan would wear.

>guy looks like a total stiff whose tastes are dicatated by internet people that it really shows.
I sometimes lurk in the waywt threads at sf and it's mostly a cringefest. Just like the guy you posted, his pose/posture and weird facial expression screams 'dressed by internet'.

>>7608839
I hope he's just being ironic and dressing like shit on purpose

Either that or he's a redditor

>>7612511
ma-1s still look nice in my opinion. Besides that, coats (topcoats/longcoats, however you may call them). Just avoid to look like you shop at urban outfitters if you want to be even better dressed than plebs who think they dress well if that makes sense

>>7612534

You are writing off very general categories of outerwear. Topcoats and longcoats are too formal for someone in their 20s.

>>7612535
definitely reddits
they all have the same sense of regurgitated fashion

>>7608839
holy fuck that outfit. i'll try to ID what i can

boots: alden $500
Jeans: prob some japan repro $300-400
grey sweatshirt: buzz rickson $200
Tanner belt: $100
Leather chain: No idea but self edge they are like $250
Tee: Im guessing it is one of those tees from self edge from a japanese denim brand, they go for like $120 at least
Coat: No idea but seeing the prices of the other clothes im guessing it would be at least $800

Looking that uptight and a total faggot: Priceless

Holy shit he looks like one of those dudes who would be anal about everything being 'perfect' fitting where seems need to end at certain points and lengths have to stop at particular areas

>>7608839
literal stiff

Does anyone have that pic of that kid who is wearing gothninja tanktop and puffy pants then wearin clarks desert boots.

thats an example.

im still not sure if that guy was being serious with the fit or just trolling everyone

Just go to a boutique that has men's clothes and get what you like. If your city/town doesn't have boutiques, go to UO or something.

those fucking layers man

also those shoes are so dope

why do you all hate? because they rock more expensive fits?

Oh god I hate seeing my friends slowly being molded into 'dressed by the internet'. Some of them are alright and understand you can't really wear a peacoat over a graphic tee. But some of them are just cdbing with unbrandeds and a shitty h&m button down.

I mean I have a lot of dressed by the internet items and probably look like a reddit whore, but I try to rock it with confidence. that's really how you can tell those who browse reddit and shit. they stand with their legs bent in, no shoulders, etc. also cdb's with chinos looks a lot better.

the best is this one kid who is trying to lift and shit with supplements and doesn't even eat well or stay hydrated enough. he says he can eat 'whatever he wants' because he's bulking.

>>7608839

i have a denimhead friend whose fits are similar to this (and likely more expensive). fortunately he's a cool guy and gives way better vibes than this dude

>>7613546
Yeah, that's my biggest gripe with the "dressed by the internet" label too. Sure, some pieces get associated with particular websites, but you really shouldn't just dismiss someone wearing them.

It's all about whether they pull it off or not, not just what they're wearing.

>>7613125
lol referencing trunks pic and asking if that fit was serious. are you fkin serious faggot? how new are you jeys

>>7613528
I actually think that fit is good. Problem is most of the "best of" fits on sufu look like shit to me. But at the same time I like a lot of the stuff that gets to "popular" but not into the best of thread. Hm.

>>7610652
I'm pretty sure sufu has just gotten worse since 2010. Thearm's transformation into a massive faggot ala takahiro is one of the biggest markers of the decline.

>>7610655
Fuck what's interesting, the dude looked better in rick and julius than he does in taka's faggotfest.

>>7613597

why is the-arm a massive faggot?

>>7608886
>Although I will admit, the one lunarcore fit didn't look awful.
>the one lunarcore fit
Oh for fuck's sake. Which one are you talking about? Diniro's? One of the worst fits on the page.

>>7608839
+1

doing research on the internet, finding designers and styles that suit you is good, the internet is actually one of the best places to research anything

reading a list of clothing on the internet and buying all of it is how you end up looking like a retarded nerd (that dude)

>>7613601
Dude just look at what his style has become. This shirt belongs in a goth loli's closet and the rest is just totally incoherent.

>>7613680
>tfw good photography can make even absolutely vomit inducing fits like that look passable

>>7613680

this fit was pretty cool though. he's definitely integrating a weird variety of brands into his fits, but i dig it.

>>7613697
I don't think it looks passable but you're right it's helping a lot.

>>7613711
Still gets it (mostly) right sometimes for sure even if that shirt is fucking stupid. But you get my point--things have gone downhill since he's gotten into number nine and other taka projects.

>>7613717

i suppose. his older fits are consistently killer

>>7613680
>>7613711
okay someone needs to tell me what the fuck is wrong with this guys legs

>>7613723
>his older fits are consistently killer
100% agree. Which is why it sucks to see things go this way.

>>7613725
Guess he hasn't gotten the whole posing thing down yet. They're not bad in the one I posted.

>>7612469
My friend always wears 511s with Red Wings and CDBs, he's never been on a fashion website in his life.
There's a lot of 'styled by the internet' combos but that one sure ain't one of them.

>>7610646
w2c jacket?

>>7610674
looks like scooby

>>7610683
dude looks like a crack head.

>>7613735

why do you care so much?

http://wisith.tumblr.com/

OP here that im worried about looking like.

Heres another guys that catches my eye with the whole dressed by the internet thing. Just go through his blog and he literally has items from every internet approved brands or style/aesthetic.

>>7615107
also might i add without ever looking that great

I don't think 511s, at least in normal colors, really are an issue since they're so nondescript. They just look like normal guy jeans. Maybe black is a different story. I have a bunch but I literally just went to the store, tried on jeans, and they were the ones that weren't super baggy or super skinny.

>>7615067
because it makes him feel like the sole wise prophet of Sufu that can see the truth
I'm glad he's doing this for us though. You don't want to be unprepared for the-Armageddon

>>7613680
>>7613597

>shitty, ignorant opinions

You guys have bad taste in fashion. You want everyone to look like a minimalist "edgy" person (despite the fact that they obviously spend hours looking at clothes, and any given group of "cool" people wearing rick owens head to toe are probably catty, hormonal faggots who spent hours organizing a meet-up on some random forum). Failing to understand personal style and taste is the grossest misstep you can take in regards to fashion

there is no effay

there is only personal taste

and yours is shit

>>7613623
>finding designers and styles that suit you is good
So when do you plan on starting :^)

>>7610679

It's true. I dress like a basic bitch every time with desert boots and oxford button downs, and everyone just thinks I'm some mormon that likes to be "well dressed." only one guy recognized it was from the internet. Thankfully he was a /fa/ user and became my best friend from that day on.


But seriously, not even redditors I've met in person ask "hey, do you go on MFA?"

>>7610674
>there are dozens of designers out there who are doing something way more interesting

Their names are?

>>7615416
Walter Van Beirendonck, Bernhard Willhelm, Comme des Garçons, Etro, Vivienne Westwood

do you not actually like fashion or????

>>7615420
>names two labels with multiple designers

>>7615423
yeah so fucking what, their lines are more interesting than rick owens

>>7615425
Drop your name, you're an idiot.

>>7615428
kill yourself hetero fuckface

comme des garçons is junya watanabe and rei kawakubo, and i meant specifically kean etro because he does the menswear

happy now?

>>7615428
lol, butthurt rick fanboy. you're lack of originality is the reason why this board has become so shitty.

the other fag is totally right.
