Saw an article from 1994 and had to post a quote: Me and my boyfriend, Rob, used to do things like pull an all-nighter to drive to this thrift store in Cincinatti called Trivets, and we’d sleep in the parking lot and come back with, like, Stars and Stripes bell-bottoms that smelled like cat piss. But then it became all about boot-cut cords. Finding dead-stock cords in army/navy stores in Williamsburg or Danbury, Connecticut. And that’s kind of what we do for X-Girl. Some of the first pieces that we made are copies of dead-stock stuff, like a football t-shirt or, like, Chloë Sevigny had a Fila sweater and we would just copy it and make the cuts better.


Everybody get in here

Didn't Daisy von Furth become almost completely irrelevant after the 90s?

It's almost as if it's a good example of how ephemeral trends are and how stupid a lot of that scene is.

There is an actual use for meme arrows aside from memeing, OP.

I disagree, PB. That concept (reproducing vintage clothes, warts and all) has been used by so brands in recent years that it's nice to know that it's been prevalent for a long time. X-girl was a short-lived brand but it exists again in Japan
On another note, thoughts in this?
it's a 1900 dollar nylon trench coat

Very good point. I just find her "comeback" weird, so I'm likely oversimplifying.

The trench is almost too much, but there's something cool about that. Like, it's aggressively too much in an interesting way.

I just realized: if this was black and had a Porter or Supreme logo then it'd be an established wardrobe staple on /fa/

Unless you are really petite and cutsey I would avoid it. The buckles are a bit much.
