Remember when /fa/ dressed like this?

to be fair there really isn't much wrong with dressing this way if you're not that interested in fashion

Was it really mfa in the past? How long ago?

>> No.9541215

>>9541184
Yeah, there's nothing wrong with it at all. I guess the idea is that people browsing a fashion board are less interested in learning how to dress better and are already more into fashion and want techwear and dick ovens discussion.

And plus MFA is pretty obvious since it's got "advice" in the title.

3 years ago maybe. Heavy threads on raw denim, clarks and OCBDs. Dadcore ruled most of /fa/ but the term wasn't used yet. Only like 1-2 goofninja threads a day.

Didn't mean to imply there was, this is how I dress myself. Just surprised by the change in style seen here over the past 2 years or so.

>> No.9541227

>>9541163
Yes I do, and I still dress like that. /fa/ was much better back then.

>>9541184
... what? Fashion =/= fucking goth ninja and other retarded shit.

>> No.9541241

this is the kind of non-offensive stuff you'd wear on a first date or something.

>>9541198
a few years ago now I think.

honestly if your clothes actually fit and you've put a tiny bit of thought into it in the morning then you're already miles ahead of most people.

>> No.9541242

>>9541225
Heh I remember that, I would browse hoping for new shit and always only see either goof samurai shit or dadcore, OCBDS all day every day, I almost caved and went dadcore but realized it doesn't fit me

There are actually people who spend years thinking of fashion as their hobby yet still have no appreciation for it like this bozo.

I assumed it had always been a bit more like it is now
I went to mfa for the first time in a while, and I see that it's evolving too, but I'm still not finding much that interests me
What I like about /fa/ is the wild inspo threads. You don't really see those on mfa

So someone who doesn't share your views on fashion is a bozo? Go fuck yourself. Fashion isn't some kind of fucking art where you're supposed to express yourself through fugly rick owens clothes. You can choose to be artsy with fashion, but fashion isn't artsy.

>> No.9541317

As a beginner, I dont know how the fuck im supposed to dress. I see convenient infographics like this, and then threads laughing about it.

Too much of a fat manlet to pull off a peacoat?

If you like this style of clothing then wear this style of clothing. Get the fuck out of /fa/ though if you actually want to learn something because this shithole has become a haven for people with poor taste.

goofninja used to be a standing joke then new people came on and the goofninja troll threads became internalised and the hivemind slowly shifted.

fashion is an art, being well dressed is a skill. Youre talking about being well dressed.

It's a very neutral style of dressing. If you don't have a lot of money it's best to invest in pieces like the infographic as they won't go out of fashion anytime soon and you will always look smart. /fa/ just hates on it because Kayne doesn't wear it.

Find me the definition that defines fashion as anything close to art.

1fashion

noun fash·ion \ˈfa-shən\
: a popular way of dressing during a particular time or among a particular group of people

: the business of creating and selling clothes in new styles

fashions : clothes that are popular

Shut the fuck up with your home made definitions.

It's gone to shit real fast.

I wonder if these are the same people now, or if they all have been replaced by 15 years olds.

Now thinking about it, the boards has followed the path of Kanye West.

Around 2008, Kanye was still preppy/dadcore.

Somehow, learning about european fashion and so on, he has evolved into what we know now (generic fashion, black and white, impersonal, something that works internationally).
