/fa/ - Fashion

yes :)

>>8001514
Shits expensive do. Plus it doesn't look like they have a wide variety of shoes.

You live in the Bris area?

>>8001489
>>8001523
>shit's expensive
>on my /fa/

Yep, the ad was put on 4chan as one of the employees browse here.

We had a brisbane /fa/ meetup with him and a few others in March

>>8001549
Fuck shit nigger, WHY CAN'T I WORK AT FALLOW.

Did he say much about working there? Employee discount? Who they hire?

>>8001545
>work 20 hours a week
>earn $13.21 an hour, and $19.80 on sundays.
>Get roughly $300 a week.
>Since I'm /biz/, a third into bills (even though my bills only take up 2/3 of the actual cash), a third into savings, and a third for me.
>Have gf
>My third is her third
>Spend most of it on going out for lunches and dinners and movies.

Shits tough nigger.

>>8001489
>not using adblock
Fuck you moot

Fallow is a pretty good store though, v friendly gr8 customer service etc

>>8001567
Got to agree with OP though not the widest range of shoes on their site even though shoes are pretty much the number one piece for most faggots who would shop their, followed by outwear.

>>8001564
damn son I feel you, I'm working full time now and >tfwnogf but still saving so much I keep feeling like I should cut back on cops
I remember what >tfwgfbutnomoney feels like though
good that you're saving rather than being a fuccboi and spending it all on delicious cops tho

>tfw misunderstood you and thought you were complaining about the price of the items, rather than how expensive they were to you personally
s-sorry anon

>>8001569
if you wanted to buy shoes online, wouldn't you just use porter/farfetch though?
Unless you mean the stuff that isn't stocked there

>>8001579
Yeah, the latter, the actual inventory.
I always use farfetch and thecorner and all that good stuff for most shoes. But I would definitely try to shop local and in person if I could.

What's up? I'll try to answer any questions you have

>>8001576
Feels all round ;____;

I spied a real good opportunity where the council was hiring undergrads for positions in whatever field they were studying.
I hadn't actual started my degree but I thought it'd be good since it's relevant experience, solid work, 21 and a bit hours a week during term time and full time during holidays. Enough to move out and pay rent since I was declined centrelink since they took into account my parents income and to centelink loses on investements are counted as profits, and my parents are currently hemorrhaging money from 2 investement properties and the stock market.

>Literally one of the best job opportunities I could ask for.
>Didn't even get an email back saying I didn't get it.

;_____;

>>8001595
My fucking god. You're here.

Starters, what's your style?

>>8001589
oh, I apologise, I misunderstood
thought you meant 'why don't they stock all of the 'muh fashionz' shoes that are popular'

>>8001595
would you be able to comment on how SFTM's curved pants compare to Julius'?
and why do you have a shaven head

>>8001595
Talk shit post fit

>>8001605
I'll post a couple pictures

>>8001605
Some of my personal favourite labels include Obscur, Song for the Mute and Julius.

>>8001611
Does Fallow actually have a mandatory dress code or a uniform or something?
Employee discount?
What does it pay, piece rate or flat rate?

How do I get fucking hired there or at any not mall-shit fast fashion bullshit store?

>>8001611
hmmm...Do you go to UQ? or get off at park road station by any chance?

>>8001611

this is really awful

do you understand how proportions work?

>>8001611

the largest feet i ever did see

>>8001629
are you fucking kidding
that's one of the best fits I've ever fucking seen, it's what all /fa/ should strive for

its messing with proportion goes so far beyond being simply bad or weird that it becomes literally warped, as if he no longer resembles a human being at all but some kind of ethereal facsimile of a real human bean
tl;dr it's amazing, fuck you, post fit fuccboi

>>8001617
What do you actually do there?

>>8001625
Yes I go to UQ. I only go to St Lucia on Thursday though.

>>8001635

messing proportions means having a recognition and understanding in the first place

the top and bottom are completely incongruent. drop crotch ends up looking comical.

it's a fucking disaster and you are clearly new

>>8001611

dem uggly ass shoes


That's two gees on purpose for emphasis

>>8001635
not that the fit is bad or anything but

>
its messing with proportion goes so far beyond being simply bad or weird that it becomes literally warped, as if he no longer resembles a human being at all but some kind of ethereal facsimile of a real human bean

is the worst thing ive ever read

>>8001639
Lies. I saw you today.

Do you usually dress up when you go to uni? When are you there tomorrow?

>>8001644
>comical
how though
the entire thing is so skewed that I can't actually address any of those clashes individually, just see it as one whole, weird object
i wouldn't even say that I like it, it's just so... different and warped
>clearly new
fuck up mate, i've been here for a couple of months I bought geos I know my shit

>>8001648
I dress the same to uni as I dress at Fallow - so normally for me.
I'm heading in at 10am and I have an hour break at 1pm.

Tell your fucking boss to stock more shoes. KVS, DBSS, fucking geos man.

Or maybe have a second hand section. I'm sure you could make money off fuccbois trying to sell off their fits.

>>8001646
>understanding

>>8001654
Where will you be located at 1pm?

I will try to find you, if I see you I will kind of just stay back because I'm embarrassed of my pleb brand clothes and I will just look at you. Is that okay fallow-chan?

>>8001657
faggot

>>8001663
>comprehension
will you make sweet love to me now bby

>>8001655
KVA*

My bad

>>8001639
Do you get discounts for working there? How good are they? They must good discounts I bet....

>>8001665
I don't know but if you see me feel free to come and say hi.

>>8001692
no u.

Nah, I would literally be too embaressed. Once I get a not shit jacket and not shit shoes I'll be more confident.

>>8001697
effay is a mindset mate, go for it
Fallowbro's nice af anyway
>or he seems to be, don't come bitching if he ends up glassing you

>>8001701
Thanks...I guess

>>8001595
Was it you that paid for that ad?

>>8001705
this if 4chan remember m8, I'm not taking responsibility for anybody actually being a psychopath
y'welcome

>>8001701
You don't understand anon.
Taro Cash shoes
Taro Cash jacket

>bought when I was 15, can't afford to buy anything better
>Saving up for a +j fishtail parka or if not a bayani.
>Saving up for some DBSS originals or KVA b/w multilaces.

>>8001711
you do realise that's a complete style clash, right? I assume you're not going to wear them together, but the way you put it it does sound that way.

>>8001692
Oh good lord I can imagine the conversation now.

>H-hi, I was the anon on effay last night
>>Oh right nice to meet you
>Nice fit
>>Y-you too.
>....
>>....

>>8001724
No I know, also saving up for some prada creepers to go with the parka, then I'll buy a bomber for the multi-laces.

>>8001711
you'll make it one day anon
your desire for change marks you above all the plebs anyway
>were you that guy asking for shoe advice who I talked into trying for those multilaces when I don't know if they'll ever be rereleased? ;_;

>not appreciating clash of styles
>not wearing one DBSS and one KVA multilace
2nxtlvl4you

>>8001736
I was that anon.

>>8001736
Since you advised me on the shoes, and I feel you're more knowledgable than me.

>Bayani $155
>+J Fishtail $260 (trying to bargain with a guy over sufu but he doesn't understand the concept of bargaining)
>Which one

I need a parka for when winter hits, but I don't want to blow my money.

>>8001595
what was it like having noirain in the store?
what's she like IRL?

>>8001743
I-i'm so sorry anon
>we can wait together right

>>8001724
actually you know what
when I get them I'm going to post a fit doing >>8001736 because fuck you, that's why

>>8001617
damn this is cool
is that an obsur leather?

>>8001760
Yeah it is from S/S12

WHACK HOW BRISBANE SO INVOLVED

MAYBE I GO NEXT MEET IF MORE NUMBERS AND LESS GN

>>8001778
pls answer >>8001756
anyone else famous come into the store?

>>8001783
N YEAH BUY FROM THERE AND SUPPORT LOCAL BIDNESS

>>8001783
For some reason, Brisbane has the highest /fa/ rate besides being the least /fa/ city on the East.

which one of you fuccbois was wearing the pyrex shorts at UQ today ya asian little cunt

>>8001790
>shorts
>this weather
>why

>>8001793
it was like 29 dude

>>8001786
I didn't even know that she came in. Other people must have been working. A few famous people have come in but I can't think of anyone at the moment sorry.

>>8001802
minus 4 and plus rain.

>>8001802
>tfw it's been raining and like 15 degrees in canberra
feels so fuckin GOOOOOdd

Fallow is entry level

???
i really don't know how you convinced them to do another ad campaign on 4chan...
...
...
how did you trick your superiors this hard?
truly lost for words, but do you really think the FALLOW aesthetic is the 4chan aesthetic? because that's the connection that gets made...
i
just
dont
know

tbh convince boss to skip on these shitty ad campaigns and reconcile your buys because they hella weak

>>8001523
dude we have been through this, there is literally a shit ton of dudes from brisbane on /fa/

>>8001933
idk about half of them are solid
is vry cool 2 see songs for the mute, one of the better and underrepresented australian labels
mcdonald is cool too
also surprised they picked up barbara i gongini, remember when ct was rly enthused with their work? i like some of the buys from shopsolid as well
interested to see hruan and first aid for injured in person
but yeah wished they didn't stock silent and 11, and I wasn't that impressed by lentrian in store either

>>8001755
oh shit I didn't see this
>more knowledgeable
ahahaha
I'll try my best though.

I personally prefer the +J one, but I'm not sure I'd pay that much for it and both of them are solid options.
Just think, which one do you prefer for your style? Are you just planning on using this functionally for winter, or do you see it becoming a fixture of your wardrobe?
If you prefer the +J one, only you can decide whether the benefit in looks etc. is worth the extra money
>good luck anon

Just play hardball with him, fucking idiots on there have no clue

>>8001918
>implying the show won't ruin the stannis arrival
>implying they already didn't
;_;

>>8001957
nah dude i can tell you exactly why half of them are weak as FUCK (idk if commercially but definitely from a creative perspect).
(i can't speak on the jewelery)

like, trashhhh
but i'll do the good ones since there's less; A. Mcdonald, Silent (nice for selling and easy), SFTM (even though their footwear sucks hard and they've kind of fallen off), Mad et Len looks p.cool but that's all really.
maybe reinhard plank if your some sort of fedora enthusiast???

>>8001933
yo turnleft, i think i saw you on campus today (white top, navy pants, black boots)
.nice fit we should hang.

>>8001983
yo hit me up
what time was this?
turnleftonfa@outtlook.com

>>8001957

why do you have to namedrop cooltop in every.single.comment

you're like game ghostriding that dr dre dick, it's sad to see

>>8001989
outlook.com*

>>8001961
Haha, go with the +J then.

Here's how my convo has gone over the past week and a half because the guy doesn't fucking check his sufu

Here's the convo
>I have one in mint condtion, chinese size M, not sure if it makes a difference, offer?
>>(me trying to bargain) I'd value it at $165
>good luck in your search
>>Name your price then.
>> plz ;____;

Faggot still hasn't responded
I'd be willing to pay up to $260 for it.

>>8001992
>tfw actually is cooltop

>>8001983
>>8001989
What uni do you faggots go to?

>>8001979
tbh i think reinhard plank is the best milliner working today short of stephen jones
rigards seems really cool, am interested in trying a pair on in person
yeah i guess it makes sense for them 2 stock silent, i guess for basics at the price the materials are quite good
but i'd rather see them pick up a more interesting account
ik fallowbro said they can't atm because they're going for accounts that haven't been picked up by many stores, or at least not ones from stores that sell heavily online
im just wondering what other interesting labels they could stock
>>8001992
gnight hamtrax it's like 4am in LA

>>8001994
msg him back, say that you'd seen a couple of archived ones that went for two hundred and you offered that because you presumed he'd go 250 and you'd end up in the middle, but that you are actually quite interested and you'd like to make another offer at your actual value of $200
don't get gouged though
>fucking sufu faggots jesus

>>8001989
was around, 5-ish i think? I was just outside the library.
hitting you up as we speak

>>8002012
They fucking price their clothes like it was second hand from the designer themself.

>>8002003
idk dude i don't shit about this reinhard guy but it looked okay...for a hat enthusiast???????? ??

?????

>going for accounts not many stores pick up
>bbs, the sz hype of the decade
but yeah otherwise a lot of them are pretty 'unheard of' but i mean...what's the point because they certainly aren't good like...is their aim to support products which are as mediocre and expensive as possible?
this is one those situations where if i lvied in bris i would go in and just be cheeky to the sa's who would try to pump this shit with lines like 'discovered a gap in the market and created a brand to offer men and women everyday pieces for dressing with ease at an affordable price'
http://www.fallow.com.au/designers/first-aid-for-the-injured
i've read that line enough times that as soon as i see 'gap in market' i know how the sentence ends.

>>8002017
also he hasn't been active since I sent those last two. Gonna wait until he's active again, if he says nothing, then I'll chat him up.

>>8002017
Tell me about it eh? try buying Julius over there
You /can/ find some good finds and people though
my first ever sufu buy was from probably the one other guy in Melbourne who knew what Julius was

>>8002014
oh weird, i was probs talking to that asian guy from the lab
yeah w/e's man

>>8002021
>I'll fill the gap in your market bb

>>8002022
wise

>>8002021
Yeah, i singled out silent and eleven in particular
idk what i'd like to see them do most is support local talent - they already stock mcdonald and sftm, and stocked sruli before he decided to stop doing full collections, but there must be other worthwhile designers doing things in australia
they're not like em with an older + richer loyal consumer base, i think for the time being they will be selling a fair amount of hruan and silent, but idk i hope they can grow their business esp. through online retail, would be nice to see another unique and interesting retail space in australia other than EM
also they had a pretty great selection of jewelry when i was there, though i'm not rly the type to wear jewelry
>>8002024
julius is relatively big in melb i know em used 2 carry it at some point in time

>>8001489
Copped a sruli shirt from there for $200aud
Super friendly via email correspondence.
tbh tho their stock is weak af, boris 11 and some other shit nobody cares about isnt good enough for the image they're working at.
Ideally I would drop loads of cash there being so accessible + close but they need to step it up

/fa/ places to apply for a job in bris?
Anyone work at a clothing store?

>>8002053
idk dude i'm all for supporting local talent or w/e but A LOT of these brands are like...that space between all saints and zam b (Lentrian, Barbara (rip), obscur, shoe repair.
i don't really know THAT much about jewellery but i know a few local affluent jewelers and i still just don't know how they make money
that jewellery market is growing super quick too, jewelers everywhere all of a sudden making money - craziest commercial phenomena tbh.
i think they just get small pockets of cult like wealthy people that they almost exclusively cater to for a constant flow and anyone else is a bit on top or s/t

>>8002076
Lel, good luck getting a job IN brisbane. Shits packed.

>>8002057
sell me your persistence shirt :(

>>8002090
sorry tl gotta hold onto these badboys now that #rare status reached
tbh tempted to cop the red size 2 on cruvoir and have three of them

>>8002076
this >>8002083

considering melbourne, heard the retail market is better

>>8002109
i think you can still email and commission pieces
not hundi on it tho - been out of touch

>>8002115
prob be an expensive endeavour tho
Commission him to make you a reindeer leather too >:^)

WHo does Zambesi stock these days?

I remember looking at their own clothes a little while ago and it was pretty underwhelming.

>>8002250
