>> No.7123290

if you want a serious answer, it's because "safe" basics are no longer cool here. it was always much easier to wear what is now the "MFA wardrobe" and look good. of course 4chan has to rebel against anything reddit, so people try to get more creative. it's much harder to be creative and a lot of people that never even learned how to wear basics fuck up a lot.

if people are new we shouldn't crucify them for wearing CDBs, slim jeans, and an oxford. obviously if they try whacky shit first they will look like shit.

Kind of agree but think you got it wrong. Most people here just out able to afford all the highest end shit. When OCBDCBDs were cool anyone who had a shitty part time job (i.e. a lot of /fa/s college+younger aged readership) could participate. Now that shit has been deemed hella lame, and nobody contributes shit now. Its just shitposting and fantasising about expensive shit. Sufu without the wallet to back it up. Honestly when was the last time there was a really good fit in a waywt? A month ago? longer? This sites killed itself

But this is why MFA sucks.
Seriously, I go over there and people are asking if a brown belt goes with their chinos, or where to buy a fucking plain sweater. It's ridiculous, and as long as I can remember being here /fa/ has been better because it wasn't overrun by shitheads who didn't even know what the basics were.

I think /fa/ could use a little more diversity in the shit people talk about, but I don't think /fa/ should be a place where you go to "learn the basics". Lurk like everyone else and figure it out.

why don't you turn the dry spell around and post a really good fit in a waywt

>> No.7124800

Because most people on this board dont like the idea of fashion as a form of expression, they want desperatly to fit in with whats accepted.

And to them whats accepted is grandpa clothes.

I walk around in flashy as fuck stuff.

Coming from someone who's Lurked since like 2007, I've really noticed that people seem to shit post and can't give constructive criticism to one another anymore. People don't know what they're talking about much anymore (of course Some still have their stuff right).

Hey complete noob to fashion here who used to only wear gym shorts and cargo shorts, graphic tees, and sports goodies in highschool.
Can you tell me the difference between a regular button down shirt vs a oxford? I know the materiel is supposed to be different but how does a noob know the difference?

You've just matured and changed.

Every forum or even groups or gatherings seem special and great at first. You get used to it, become it and rise above it in time.

This place is just not catered for you anymore. Your interest is fading because it's more of the same but with less special feelings because you are so familiar with it now.

Just move on or accept that this how it always has been and will be. You are the one that changed.

Lack of slater.

>> No.7124916

Because no one cares about the aesthetic anymore. It's all shit labels like "gothninja" or "dadcore" and everybody usually takes the usual basic bitch route because they're too scared to try something new or old.

Plus the hive mind here seems to have gotten stronger overtime, and now everyone tries really hard to fit in with whatever it dreams up as a good fit, and everything else is "autism". Creativity has been stifled, the well is now dry and all we're left with are the okay-ish buying guides people post here. Sad.

>> No.7125307

>>7124916
we're just desensitized to peacock behavior and more discerning now. it's more about authenticity/"pulling off" a look than pure fashion like it used to be. creativity isn't stifled, just more carefully edited.
