Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

what does this mean? i think if it uses the definition of fashion as "popular trends" then it's true

bump

[Anonymous No.6842257]

the reason why fashion changes is cause ugly people catch on, then insta kill that fashion because ugly people cant start a fashion trend , only follow one

[Anonymous No.6842262]

on another note, what does "dressed by the internet" mean? it seems awfully obnoxious and presumptuous to say that to someone

[Anonymous No.6842259]

this can apply to almost anything

music changes all the time

art changes all the time

ideas change all the time

He is a writer so of course he can warp words to make something sound deep. its really just bullshit, though most men have this weird contempt for fashion so its not a surprising viewpoint

usually people who are interested pay attention to the two most important new collection releases
one for AUTUMN/WINTER and the other for SPRING/SUMMER (~6months apart)

i'm a newfag, when are the other collection releases? also in oscar wilde's time is that how fashon worked? were those the main collections?

If you can't understand how tongue-in-cheek near every Oscar-flamboyantly-gay-Wilde quote is, then I think you're missing the point.
This is the same man who literally said

"I have nothing to declare but my genius"

to immigration customs.

Who cares

why involve yourself in such petty fashion elitism

certain pieces are dead giveaways

clarks desert boots + chino combo for example

anyone wearing a pointer chore coat

[Anonymous No.6842310]

>>6842271

then do you think OP is right? I can see the quote working in the context of lame trends. but i replied with the assumption that it wasnt implying trendiness, which in my opinion makes the quote pretty pointless

[Anonymous No.6842311]

>>6842289
plenty of people wear chinos - ridiculous numbers of people do. I think it's pretty safe to say that seeing as so many people wear chinos some might also be wearing desert boots and not get their fashion advice from the internet (which is beside the point that doing so isn't a bad thing at all)

thats true, but being on a college campus, I could just tell which people were dressed by mfa. I can't quite place why but I definitely could

[Anonymous No.6842324]

Two things.
1) The quote would have been more applicable in his time due to industry limitations opening up the scope of the market.
2) He's taking the piss. He is almost always taking the piss.

nope, i'm talking about tinfoil and how he's always getting shit for being the epitome of "dressed by the internet"

[Anonymous No.6842419]

[Anonymous No.6842472]

>>6842262
it is
if you follow trends on a fashion blog or forum and subscibe to their style you're dressed by the internet.

[Anonymous No.6842551]

>>6842262
I always assumed it applied to people who just ask for a list of shit to buy, who pay no attention to how things go together, or how it fits on their body.

[Anonymous No.6842579]

it means he was trying to be edgy with no real understanding of fashion

[Anonymous No.6842593]
