I don't have a GQ sub, but I know what you're saying. My wardrobe is a mix of menswear and streetwear.

Do you think anybody with any gothninja in their wardrobe is every going to be invited to something formal?

You can be uninvolved with fashion and still be more stylish than someone very involved with fashion.

People that claim they buy designer for durability don't actually understand why their clothes are marked up so high.

I actually have a yesstyle jacket that I've owned for over a year and has been in perfect condition until some kid pulled on a pocket and ripped it. I get a lot of compliments on it and it's decently warm. I literally get more compliments from that jacket than anything else I wear.

It's a safari jacket but I don't think they sell them anymore, I haven't seen them anywhere in a long time

Dadcore is possibly the best, most neutral way to dress to impress everyone you would meet.Its also very hated on /fa/ for some reason because everyone wants to be a special autistic snowflake.

Gothninja/lunarcore almost always looks bad and would freak anyone out. Same with overly baggy pants.

of course it is. thats not disputed here. but i don't dress for other people. i dress for myself. that's not being autistic or arrogant or trying to be a 'special snowflake'. its self confident and self conscious. i just wear what i like.

I think the word you're looking for is "prep".

But yeah, a healthy balance of prep, menswear, workwear and streetwear is the best you can have.

Dadcore on /fa/ is basically sweaters, chinos, button ups, ect. Which is high fashion to 90% of the population.

Quality doesn't mean durability. You pay for the artisanal craftwork. When I pay $2000 for a suit, I'm not paying that $2000 because I want to wear that suit every day and have it last forever, I'm paying that $2000 because it's handmade and woven from fancy Italian ballsacks.

i'm not so sure that they do tho...

anyways, the point is i was responding to is that 'dadcore is the most neutral way to dress to impress everyone you would meet.' which vary well may be/is true. but i don't dress under the objective of impressing 'everyone i would likely meet'...

and, granted: some people do - and furthermore: that is their definition of 'style' or even [god forbid] 'fashion' - their choice tho...

i wear clothes i that make me happy. make me feel good. i don't open my closet and think about 'how edgy' i can look today, i just happen to like darker coloured and textured clothing. mono-/achromatic attire is Not my response to the public opinion of the look, it is My response. and just because i think [& prolly spend] a lot more on how i dress myself than the 'average' person doesn't mean ending up at 'Dadcore' is right for me...

fuck i don't even dress goof, but why do people come here (to a fashion forum) thinking they have all the 'right' answers to fashion...?

>high fashion to 90% of the population
does 90% of the population read about fashion?
do they know about the history of design?
do they watch fashion shows?
to they even have 'grails'?

wouldn't be basing my style/fashion understanding on 90% of the population, bruv... u know there are a lot of people who think leggings n uggs/boxfit jeans look good out there...

in the 'whey-whut'?: disagree. a lot of dad/general/basic-bitch/street - wear. 'normalfags' pulling off better-than-normal-fag wear and looking good in their surroundings... nothing wrong with that.

are you referring the inspo-threads? again, disagree. i think the point of those threads is that the situation and the outfit is working within perfect tandem. therefore i disagree with you again.

please be more clear and concise with your accusation. what is your argument?

so your telling me that cause i wear all balck and baggy pants im autistic just cause i dont wanna dress like 90% of the H&M staff doesnt meanim autistic and ive gotten way more compliments than any dadcore fag at my university. Not only that but there are too many people that dress dad core around me so i rarely doubt that they all get compliments. The only autistic person is you for dressing like 90% of the teenage population. Swag.

Even swag fags are dressing h&m tier dad core. Also remember that the people youre getting compliments from are the same people who are wearing ugg boots/northfaces/ and occasional green fishtails. Pls stop
