Hello, /fa/,
Don't take this the wrong way, but I need to ask you something:
Why do you wear your /fa/ clothes?
I'm new to this board, but after having browsed for only a short while, I'm left with the impressions that the outfits you like all seem very strange and clown-like.
To us normalfags, you don't appear any less weird than cosplayers in public.
So why is it that you spend so much money on these clothes? Is it the social group; Are you part of a click of other /fa/-oriented people?
Pls explain.

It's appealing to me, and the people who I've met that are interested in the aesthetic have been great. It's a very interesting culture, fashion.

I can see the relation you'd have to Cosplaying. But the fact is that you're just being close-minded. You're passing judgement because you don't quite relate or understand why we like the things we do.

and that guy can wear the Naruto outfit, I don't mind. He likes naruto, and is showing it. I like high fashion and am showing it. Who cares if people who don't like your own hobbies don't like what you wear. I think it looks good, I like wearing it, therefore I wear it. The guy with bootcut jeans from AE and a sweatshirt from some college event wearing training shoes likes what he wears and I don't think less of him for not sharing my interests.

Well, hobbies are, to most people, rather personal things. There is a very sharp line between being occupied with a hobby and to be part of the general society (in most cases), yet you seem to make it your hobby to be shunned in society and shunning it back (seemingly ignorant to the fact that the former shunning takes place). That's rather special, I think - although I might be completely misunderstanding how you feel about it all.

>>7139545
This is also something I consider a good answer, although lacking in detail.
Art is usually meant to express something - do you make it a part of your identity, or are you trying to make people feel a certain way from the influence of your esthetical choices in clothing?

We're also completely neglecting the point that Clothing is more than just fabrics or protection against the elements. These are creations, an artists work. They way you're wording things out makes it seem like you're bluntly saying "God you people are so vapid for thinking your shitty clothes make you look good" there are more layers that I can't explain to you that you'd need to have under your belt. Upbringing and things of that nature. You simply don't have an interest in what we enjoy and because of that you will never understand why we dress the way we do.

Also, stop fishing for an answer like "Man, you're right. Our clothes are meaningless. Thanks, Anon." We're all different.

You are describing people who are dressing to seem cool or impress others. That mentality is juvenile and not something fa would endorse, though many people here probably do it.

As >>7139515 people who have what I'd consider the right mindset about clothing wear exactly what they like and don't judge other people for liking different things. So internally I'll judge other people's clothes but its not like it negatively effects my view of people because I realize everyone has their own standards and interests.

Really what you are describing is the more general 4chan trend of disliking people who like different things. A mentally healthy person doesn't do this in regards to clothes, hobbies or whatever but 4chan is not populated with emotionally stable adults but rather sexually frustrated bipolar teenagers and that's where this "incorrect" (according to me lol) mindset comes from

I guess it's natural do get into a defensive position, but I really don't mean insult.
I can see how clothes can be seen as pieces of art, and seeing certain attires can evoke certain feelings - but why do you want that? To me, the tradeoff seems too great. There's the social aspects, and then there's the money, of course.

>Clothing is more than just fabrics or protection against the elements
I never said it wasn't. In fact, I'm trying to discuss the social aspects of clothes.
I'll make myself an example: I don't know much about fashion, but I strive to look acceptable. My choice of clothes are meant to express identity, but also that I'm on your (the person I'm relaing to at any given time) level, and that I don't want to exclude you or be excluded. It expresses my hopes for future friendly relations without any gap between percieved worth.

I have a rather utilitarian approach to clothing. Clothing is a part of my identity in the same way my other hobbies are. Anything more than that would be too pretentious to me.
Do I want to make people feel a certain way?

Maybe, but I'm too introverted to have some carefully crafted persona. I think my taste in clothing simply reflects my taste as an artist and a person.

Btw, I don't like goof and by /fa/'s standards I probably look like shit anyway.

This very notion is absolutely ridiculous. Wether you think you do or not, does not change the fact that you subconsciously judge this person, and your subconscious value estimation of this person sinks.
Now, what I'm telling you, is that this is the case for most normalfags seeing you guys as well - they might not go and criticise you for the way you dress, but they will think less of you for it. So what is the benefit?
Feeling good about yourself, knowing that most people don't think you look good is a bit strange, but if you think it's an important part of your visual identity, then sure, why not? But part of the culture seems to be about downsizing other people's merit on the basis of what they wear, which I find strange in this context.

I think you might be going a bit too deep with this.

My hobbies are pretty generic; music, video games, movies, animu, science, politics, art, stories, qt's. Nothing too sophisticated. I make art for video games, so that's the kind of "artist" that I am, if you can even call me that.

My hobbies are something that I simply consume and I don't think they express who I am. Art does that, but I'm not yet at a point in my career where I have enough creative freedom to truly express myself.

listen man.
the reason we want to wear this stuff is that there are certain qualities clothes have that have an objective measure of quality, and even the subjective qualities are kind of objective. its almost always objectively better to wear higher end clothing.

but its not even about how much money you spend. the reason we don't care what "normals" (that term is so retarded) is because they don't know shit or know very little. if people just started thinking about what they wear and started exposing themselves to as much different clothing and styles as possible then they would start to learn: clothes that fit are better than clothes that don't. some materials are better than others. these running shoes I've been wearing look retarded. polos are objectively bad. etc etc.

its like anything. people are retarded about pretty much every field of interest except for like 3 or 4 where they have specialized knowledge. and in their fields they'd have a lot to teach the plebs who have no idea, who don't even THINK about that field, couldn't even imagine there's more to know about vacuum cleaners or fish or history or art or fashion

there's this thing called taste and as it grows you start to realize its a lot less subjective than you thought. but then as it grows more you enter a whole new world and you get into all the nitty gritties and you realize its a shit ton more subjective than you thought.

Okay, I'll bite: My first impression is that the pants are too wide in the end, and when I see bare legs/ankles I get a feeling of uncleanliness. The hat stands out as immedietly disruptive of anything that can be seen as "normal" - Images of fedoramancers pop up involuntarily.
Also, I like the jacket a lot - and from my point of view, it seems wasted potential when put together with the rest.

Mind, this is just what I gather froma first impression, beyond my conscious control. I wouldn't hate on this guy or anything in real life, and I wouldn't mind being friendly with him - but my subconscious would have devaluated him from the getgo, based on appearance.

You just cop what you like. Just because it has a brand attached or because it's high fashion doesn't mean you have to like it.

For example, I think that Raf is awful and I want to vomit whenever I see his shoes.

This sounds like the purest delusion to me.
Fashions are just that: fashions. They are aspects of culture, and there is nothing objective about it.
Of course some materials are more solid or comfortable, but that has absolutely nothing to do with fashion.

original anon here. to me it's not coherent -- this can sometimes work but not when it looks forced as in this case it very forced imo.
he needs contrast. Loose on top then tight on bottom n vice versa. And the golden ratio is 0.618.
Think everything tight = catwoman, everything loose = sloppy
C, we wanna kept the eyes to "hit" at certain proportions. 0.618 is the golden ratio.
I think he needs to better calculate where his shirt would ideally hit to make it seem like he has shorter torso. i believe this would help with his fits.
Mainly his proportions bother me -- this and put together with bad layering makes an awful outfit imo.
Beauty is math. It's exact. I don't mess around w numbers.

go outside with whatever your fit is, see how many friends you can get with that then you can come back again and talk

I also hate Raf stuff. And most everything I see on /fa/. I'd like to graduate to the next level and start buying more high quality well fitting pieces but everything I see designer wise is always boring to me. Unless it's something like pic related, which obv. isn't meant for everyday wear.

Sigh. I feel like I was born in the wrong era.

This is why it sounds comfy to wear dresses.
I still wouldn't do that (in public), if you know what I mean.

I don't see why the shoes would look worse with pants of proper length.

Why do some of you get so hurt by this?
It's not like this should be news to you. Most people thing "high fashion" is just weird. Just like most people think punk is silly and cosplay is strange and unnatural.
These are not my personal opinions, this is just the norm. Having chosen to be /fa/, yu ought to be able to deal with these facts without throwing a tantrum. Have some integrity.

objectivity is attained when all subjective minds are in agreement. so this gives a spectrum of objectivity instead of two distinct values.

my point is that as taste grows as a result of exposure and thought, people tend to gravitate towards certain things. a lot of this has to do with great artists creating or showing why something looks good and then a lot od people following their lead. but everyone has an innate sense of 'this looks good, this does not' or 'I like this and I don't like that' and this sense, called taste, changes and becomes more sensitive as it grows. and a lot of times among more knowledgeable people, tgeir tastes align in certain aspects. then we can call the qualities that are agreed upon more 'objectively' better.

See, this pic I think looks kind of good.
I wouldn't have chosen a t-shirt with such a wide neck opening, and the shoes look a bit too obnoxious, but otherwise it's pretty passable.

That said, I would probably be shocked to hear how much money this fit costs.
It seems a very expensive hobby. (Not complaining, just having a hard time seeing the ultimate motivation).

But if you can't explain it rationally, isn't it just the expression of group-mentality?
Why do you all want the same insanely priced clothes, if people in China don't? (Yeah, ridiculous simile, sorry. I'm sure you get what I'm getting at, though.)

where in your time on effay did you get the idea that we have a group mentality? and besides that no. it just means fashion can be more about feeling than rationality. there's a reason its called art and there's a reason engineers can't get into it. but subjective, feeling, arty shit is more in tune with the human condition. people like similar things because we have the same dna and more so because we've all had similar experiences and lives. we share a lot in common. and sure there's people that don't really get it but they try to be fashionable out of want for acceptance or for vane reasons, but they aren't genuine, they aren't authentic, and most people can tell.
