What's some fashion related "rules" you believed before coming to /fa/?

>> No.9641410

/fa/ doesn't know any rules
this board lacks any real knowledge of fashion except for /fa/scist
it's just a circlejerk of fashion victims

Never button the bottom button of a suit jacket, undo your buttons when you sit down, only undo the top button on a shirt without a tie, skinni jeans are to express you sexuality, you know, the basics.

Wearing all black looks cool
Combat Boots, workboots and DMs are cool
Cuffing your jeans looks totally casual
Band shirts, ironic internet shirts, or graphic tees in general are a good idea
Thrift store blazers can look good ever
Skate shoes (especially Vans) are cool
Motorcycle jackets... you get the idea

Most things i "learned" from this board have been from seeing other peoples mistakes.
I've never really felt the need to ask for advice or validation here, because it really seems most people are pretty clueless.

I used to believe all /fa/ were victims.
Now I genuinely believe a lot of posters in here are genuinely creative and well informed people.

Most people don't have the legs to pull them off, most skelingtons have disgusting mishaped knock knee'd legs that just look gross in skinny jeans. Tapered slim fit is godly and you know it.

>> No.9644411

Used to believe:

being tan is better
avoid braids or pigtails
tight fitting clothes are better

I still believe these:

when in doubt go with black or gray
no brown shoes with black purse or vice versa
No animal print ever
fuck scarves
no jewelry that overpowers your face

Everything has to be tailored to fit
Petite women should avoid heels
Handbag/belt must match shoes
Jeans are lazy and uninteresting
Sweatpants indicate having given up
All tattoos/non earlobe piercings automatically signify a personality disorder
It's better to buy lots of clothes (lmao "more versatile") than it is to have a few expensive key items

Girls are more tapped into the generic side of fashion, following lame trends or copying their friends, but the majority of women I see are at the very least making some effort. I would say like 99.9% of men I see every day look like fucking shit wearing the worst fitting cheapest shit imaginable.
