/fa/ - Fashion

I'd like to think everyone here wears designer stuff, or else they kinda don't belong here

>>9869492
Can you believe they are the same guy

>>9869495
Over half the threads on this board are rate my face, rate my haircut, and basic bitch clothes general. People who buy anything over 300$ get ridiculed.

>>9869512
Well, he's definitely made some improvements if that first pic is the newer one.

>>9869492

i wear rick owens shoes and boots, i have 3 pairs. id say people get lost in the designer spectrum and with designers as polarizing as rick owens its easy to look like a tool while simultaneously spending a stupid amount of guap.

id say the only thing u really need to spend a lot of money on in outfits is your shoes and outerwear, the rest can easily just be basic pieces from hm, etc. a simple crewneck, hoodie or sweater with black sweats and some ramones / rick boots can be relaxed and laid back while still being fashion forward

really i think people on here blow too much money on pieces that can only be worn one way (denim jackets, graphic t shirts and hoodies, etc) instead of just copping generic basics and having a lot invested in their shoes.

think about it, anyone can spot a pair of rick owens shoes from across the room (anyone from here anyway) but who can tell the difference between a blank margiela crewneck (490$) and a blank hm crewneck, how about a blank hoodie?

luxury basics are just that, luxuries. If u find urself struggling to cop whatever you want whenever you want then focus on the important things first, shoes shoes shoes shoes shoes and more shoes and maybe one nice jacket for really cold days

hope i helped

>>9869517
Yes, you can say that haha. I've only owned 3 rick pieces. I've been quite fortunate to own quite a bit by selling and buying.

>>9869530
Could you please post you wearing some shoes, and maybe your whole fit? I was thinking of getting an unstable shirt just because the fabric is really comfy and looks nice. Thanks for your post anyways it was really helpful.

>>9869530
I'd say there is a stark difference from some basics from RO, than say something you'd find at HM, e.g. double layer tees. I got a jacket and a tee and enjoy wearing both. However I agree people typically comment/compliment shoes or jackets before anything else.

>>9869550
Please post a fit, anything dude I'll take it

Only buy it if you love it. Please don't just buy something expensive if you "like" it. I typically wait around a month before pulling the trigger, sometimes its good sometimes its bad

>>9869550
>9869550

the only reason i emphasize shoes first as much is because everyone who is newer to fashion never has as much money for clothes as they think they do and/or never realizes how expensive these clothes really are and i just dont want someone to end up dropping a lot on maybe 2 nice shirts (could easily be over $400) or a single jacket (bomber, etc could easily be over $400 for rick and similar) which (if they are starting into the fashion world) would be their only high end piece, and there is nothing worse than seeing someone with their one high end piece wearing it every.single.day. I even notice if someone wears the same thing twice in the same week, but shoes are the one area where it's acceptable to wear the same pair multiple times per week, so which are you really getting value out of if you're starting out, for me I think its a no brainer for shoes, not to mention pieces from rick, mmm, plokhov and similar are just hard to pull off without being initiated to how to successfully wear the brand and showing up on campus decked in drapey cloth just doesn't feel as comfortable as it looks on tumblr, but really whatever makes you happy and you feel good wearing is all that matters as long as its not fur thats just gross

>>9869568

Great advice. I'm the same way, except I usually have a deadline before I need to order it or I lose my window of opportunity.

>>9869570
If you have more than 7 pairs of jeans you're a tool. 4 is more than enough

>>9869572
That's why its bad sometimes haha. Still think about two pieces I would of loved to have but I waited to long or hesitated. Its all a game if your broke. Just learn to play

>>9869568
>>9869572
I've been craving a Rick tee since I first touched one in a store, Im a student (18) and I'm only working part time this summer, (around ten bucks an hour.) Can anyone post a fit?

I wear my geos almost every day, scattered basics here and there

>>9869616
To stay in context

Viscous I think. Many people cut them to fit their desire, like here

>>9869616

Consider buying a DRKSHDW one in B jersey instead. You can find plenty of them on sale and the pricing can be better.

>>9869626
Holy fuck this looks so good. Why don't more people like you post on waywt?

just don't buy online and do just buy stuff coz its on sale. sizing is weird. honestly the cheaper rick tees are usually only suitable for layering they hug the body and have weird neck holes. geos are overplayed to shit. grab a heavier drkshdw tee and some second hand boots

>>9869549
here is like what I would normally wear I'm not the most dope hombre when it comes to my outfits I mostly buy pieces that I really like and just kind of go with it but I don't have any particular method which is why some people would heavily criticize me

>>9869646
Close of the shoes sorry I'm on an iphone If this is sideways also

>>9869635
I just generally try to avoid those threads

>>9869633
What stores do you usually visit to find these sales?

>>9869664
ssense vrients endclothing gilt farfetch myhabit

>>9869664

Try the clearance sites like Gilt, Yoox, and MyHabit if you don't have any nearby stockists you can keep tabs on.

>>9869655
Well anyway your fit actually inspires me. Do you have a insta or something?

>>9869646
wtf?

>>9869512
Pretty sure OPs pic is mamma

>>9869671
>>9869669
What do you guys know about American chains that sell Rick like Barneys or Nordstorm?

>>9869626
Not good

>>9869693
they are great if you can afford to pay full price, they carry the current season and have great customer service and can usually get you a piece if they don't have it in stock at least in my experience if you have a particular piece in mind that is "worth" their time

>>9869693

Only in select stores, usually major metro areas.

>>9869675
Yeah but its pretty basic, hardly any /fa/ stuff.
@pjwilborn if you wanna follow though

>>9869654
>>9869646
Yikes. How unfortunate

>>9869616
Don't buy Rick tees if you're broke, they'll rip on the second wash and you end up a sad broke person.

I used to own ramones, dunks and tech runners the only Rick shoes ived stayed with are the creeper boots. Phenomal shoes highly highly recommend. I also love Rick trousers and suiting. The leathers are a little hit and miss for me but I loved my stooges when I owned it.

>>9869722
Forgot my pic sorry

>"I'm going to wear it casually"

>>9869697
>>9869693
So if I want to find sales in America, should I look for local non chains?
Thanks for the advice btw

>>9869731

As with many large brands, there is a set markdown schedule that almost all stores abide by, but promotions are done on a case-by-case basis depending on the retailer, e.g. if Barney's card holders have a promotion running for an extra discount or something.

>>9869731
The only real sales you can find in the US are online sales. Grailed, eBay, and the aforementioned sites are your best bet, but again it's more about keeping a watchful eye and picking up the good pieces as soon as they show up on those sites because the good stuff is usually gone, there is a reason those pieces are on sale, which is usually they are a few seasons old and just need to make room for newer stuff so typically the only stuff left is weird sizes and the pieces nobody wanted, but occasionally there are grails to be had in just the right size if you're fast enough.

>>9869684
Both same guy. Idk what or who mamma is

>>9869684
No that's definitely shui tsang

>>9869747
Anyone recommend Craig's list?

>>9869794

Ummmm...I use CL to get rid of old furniture and to find someone selling tickets. I do not use CL to buy designer goods.

>>9869721
This will never happen, Rick will last you forever

>>9869721
handwash nigga

>>9869530
get this man a plaque

>>9869654
wut r those y3s

>>9869646
lol, I actually whole-heartedly agree with you on your earlier post, but the only thing that feels off about this fit are the shoes. Otherwise pretty good, I think.

>>9869616
Rick double layers are the most interesting of designer tees, but I would not not pay over $200 for one (creep sales and y!). They may seem expensive, but I wear mine at least once a week. I recommend sizing down since the fabric is quite stretchy.

just don't buy one unless you have the wardrobe for it (avant-gard / artisanal stuff).
your money is best spent: shoes/outerwear > pants > tops

>>9869635
Most people with half decent waywt's crosspost and/or don't bother with the edgy underage b8 here

>>9869616
ive never spent more than eighty dollars for a rick tshirt

>>9870142
take a guess

>>9870172
that's neet-core. disgusting

>>9869515
pretty much this

to many crossposters, wish they could split the board and add something like "personal style" and let the fashion board be about fashion

would probably make it a lot slower, but a lot better too

quality over quantity

>>9869768
old trip

>>9869492
I do, Dries is probably what I have most of, some Junya, mmm etc..

If you're considering getting into it learn what you like first, maybe rick is what is perfect for you, maybe there is something else that would suit you better. and don't kop at full price unless you love it

not gonna post fit though

considering my liking towards rick (particularly mentioned by OP) and fashion, I've been able to save up (as any of you could) to afford a couple pieces from my favorite designers. however i don't believe everyone here owns 'designer stuff' because you don't really need to be wearing hundred dollar tees to be fashionable or to compose of a good fit. the speculation of /fa/ is that there is somewhat a guided ruleset on what you should wear but imo cutting creativity or hating on someones fit just because its "unlike your style" is just extraneous in the real world of fashion. guys, in the end just remember to follow your heart :^). but srs reconsider your silhouette, functionality, weather, and everything or else you'll look 2 ridic for human standards.

patrik erv oxford chambray w/e
rick rebel/nun sweatshirt

>>9871298
forgot the fit lol

>>9871301
this does not fit together at all

>>9871309
>>9871301

I think its a different approach to the norm but as gaudy as anything you would see in a PFW street-style

how did u even get that sweater???

>>9869495
This is supposed to be a fashion board, not a rick owens advertising board. buying expensive designer clothes =/= good taste in fashion or aesthetics.

>>9871301
sick

>>9871298
>>9871301

why the fuck would u even care for societys standards? if youre gonna be eccentric just do it, thats a good fit

>>9871323
it certainly is a different approach, but it just looks extremley out of place, just looks like one of those /fa/ raf uniform fits, but with tech runners instead of CPs/stans and a RO sweater with a patch instead of a plain black one from our legacy or norse or acne or sth. anyway i think it just doesnt fit the image

>>9870142
qasa highs i actually don't wear them that often but I think they look really cool

>>9871323
http://www.fabrixquare.com/men/departments/hoodies-sweatshirts/ro-black-rebel-sweatshirt.html

Nobody else wanted to do it, so I did. Oh well.

>>9871301
what the fuck this fit looks like a raf simons but none of it is, its like raf with a rick twist

>>9871301
the sweater is fake, i hope you didnt pay too much for it

>>9871357
poster here, that doesn't really makes sense...at least explain how its out of place? or doesnt fit the image?

>>9871375
kind of, exactly, ya

>>9871373
ahh no i got it off ssense, that rep has obvious flaws. first of all the graphic print & the width of the fold on the nun.

>>9871301
fake tech runners
shitty pants

>>9871343
umm probably bc it totally depends on where u live man, you wouldn't wear this in a non-city environment

>>9869492
ID on bag?? Dope fit

>>9869512
Thats not what ian curtis wouldve wanted

>>9869626
This actually looks amazing, basic AND rick

>>9869646
love the sneakers man, but this fit doesnt do it for me

>>9871301
dig the techrunners bruh

>>9869626
Id on pants and top dude?

>>9871378
>>9871387

Ironic shitposters who can't afford rick OP wonders about

>>9871301
sick outfit

>>9871385
> that doesn't really makes sense...at least explain how its out of place?
i already did, it looks like the one of thoe basic fits i described but with some items swapped for rick, like a shy nerd trying to be edgy by buying the most tame pieces from and "edgy" designer and incorporating them into his cookiecutter fit

>>9871387
post fit then lol

>>9871418
ahh ok, sorry that you don't like the fit man.
I do though, I didn't really feel like going the 'rick-route' and incorporating skirts and oversized shirts onto my fit. but either way I get both negative or positive feedback on my rick fits, just not too sure with the nerd trying to be edgy analogy although I don't mind it.

>>9871404
thank you

>>9871414
cheers

>>9871419
still waiting :^)

>>9869727

Kek, saw a uni student wearing boots like these walking alone through town the other day. He looked so self conscious and awkward. Yikes.

Some stuff only looks good on muddels or celebrities tbh.

>>9871471
not that guy but why do you even engage people that say things that arent true. if your sweater isnt fake then everyone saying otherwise is just stupid and not worth your time and post fit is just stooping to their level and honestly even if they posted a god fit you would just say it was shitty anyways

my 2 cents but everyone uses this as like a board to get judged by others instead of a board to discuss a common interest its kind of sad how insecure it seems everyone is :(

I only own a rick muscle tee right now, but hoping to cop some stuff later on in the year, possibly even something from sphinx collection

>>9871298
>you don't really need to be wearing hundred dollar tees to be fashionable or to compose of a good fit.

Very much this. I've seen good fits incorporating qlo,h&m and the like

Personal style > brandwhoring

I'm slowly building up a collection of Paul Smith shirts.

>>9871617
Truth.

>>9869654
Hey man what are those middle Ricks in the row close to the wall? They look like slip on ramones? Throw me an ID pl0x

>>9869530
This is 100% spot on. If you really want to buy top notch clothes, shoes and outerwear are the most important.

Meant to post this yesterday, I'm definitely not into high-tier designer stuff or avant garde runway stuff. I just use those fits and pictures just as inspiration, it's really just a hobby to look at that stuff.

What I'm really into is mid-tier fashion, i.e. stuff like Norse, A.P.C., Common Projects, Wings+Horns/Reigning Champ, etc. All I'm after are brands that are conscious of clothing quality/construction, sourcing of materials and labour, and focus on details with a little creativity.

I wouldn't call them "designers" similar to high-end clothing makers who use their name, even though clothing stores like to title their brands section as "designers" for appeal.

For that reason I totally wouldn't advocate building a wardrobe with H&M and Rick. Even I spend more on outerwear and plan to spend more on shoes, but you guys should be focusing on every area in my opinion.

>>9871326
This.

>>9871743
http://www.shopbop.com/padded-low-boot-rick-owens/vp/v=1/1565030217.htm

These are the boots that you're talking about, I think they're on sale on myhabit right now actually (idk if they are in your size though :( )

>>9871924

The word you're looking for is "contemporary". It encompasses brands with mid-range pricing and modern styling cues. Meant for customers who understand designer clothes, but aren't interested in buying it.

>>9871301
this is very cool, dont normally see rick worn well when its not piles of grey layering

>>9871357
yeah thats exactly what this fit is, but we think its cool so
>bun off

>>9869626
hey man can you id the stuff in this fit?
feeling the hoodie, it is just a long jason?

>>9869626
yooo

what t-shirt
what pants?

>>9869627
wish i had a girlfriend who dressed like that

>>9871301
this is nice. best color way for the tech runners imo

>>9872700
Lmao

>>9871485
This, /fa/ isn't /soc/

>>9872595

>>9871301
this fit makes the techrunners look subtle and thats really rare, its not like look-at-me-for-attention but people will still recognize that outfit and signify a sense of fashion.

>>9871301
this is dope man keep doing you and ignore the haters

>>9871301
clean fit!!! saved

>>9871301
you've received my seal of approval AND THATS ALL THAT MATTERS 👌👌👌👌👌

>>9869530
Where do I find cheap basics that won't fall apart after a year?

>>9869729
kek

>>9874900
uhh.. uniqlo? clothing doesn't just 'fall apart' after a year if you care for it correctly. stop putting shit in the dryer and hang dry

>>9874900
Stop abusing your shit. I almost rarely have issues with clothes falling apart. Even on cheap shit, takes years.

>>9875337
>>9875344
I don't have a dryer, and I try to take care of them.
But, a few Gap shirts I got this time last year already have some small holes starting,

>>9871301
someone wearing rick and looks normal..im gonna appreciate this rare moment

>>9872434
Do they fit tight to your feet? It seems like the tall part of boot/slip on would be loose as you walk

>>9872595

Oooh thanks /fa/cist, you're a good trip btw, helped me out multiple times this week without knowing it was all me.

>>9876303
/fa/scist*

Boris Bidjan Saberi > Rick Owens

>>9869492
Ironically, a small percentage of /fa/ actually own designer clothing. An even smaller precent of these users post fits.

>>9871301
how do people react to your style? and what do they say about the tech runners?

>>9876364
LOL
Your fits are absolute fucking trash, you dumb caveman goon nigger cunt

>>9876373
you should've stopped that sentence much earlier, because now you seem like a hillbilly, though I'm not a huge QB fan either

>>9876384
yeah maybe, it's just funny how he thinks he owns 'designer clothing' when all he has is some KVA's and geobaskets
wow, great designer gear, as if he's in a position to talk shit about anything

>>9876071

>>9876356
>implying Boris has any concept of originality
>implying he has ever put something on the runway that was actually his
People actually believe that Boris is a good designer. What a world to live in.

>>9876373
>racist

you should be ashamed

>>9871481
Those boots don't look too odd. I wouldn't think twice about them if I saw someone at a uni wearing them.

>>9876401
I'm not a racist person, I think Quarterback is just a nigger because he chooses to be a nigger
A dumb black person is a nigger, p simple

report me if you want I'm using a proxy anyway pussy :)

Also does this mean I'm still allowed to be on /fa/?
