Why are you into fashion?

For me it's a coping mechanism.

For me it's expression. People can for a part see who i am without having to talk to me first.

Much easier to meet people i like in big crowds.

I'm not into fashion. I just try to look good and impress other people around me.

>> No.13595175

I guess it initially stemmed from being self-conscious, but once I stopped dressing objectively shit and started feeling a bit better about myself, I started to really enjoy the small bit of novel expression I could get out of it. I also like to buy well made things in general, fashion or otherwise, which has led me to a better appreciation of which brands are good for what.

Only way I feel good about myself. Kind of helps with depression, more than trying to become /fit/ did

perfectionism.

I used to wear stonewashed jeans two-four inches too long, never cut my hair, t shirts that were a size or two two big AND too short. A nun at my college told me I dressed terrible in a loving way

Much like the state of somebody's car, the clothes they wear tell you everything you'd need to know about them.
For me, fashion is about crafting the perfect disguise, rigging the first impression to my favor. That, and I got sick of getting ripped off in normie stores and started buying designer and have never looked back.

I just want to be the best I can be. Dressing nice is merely an extension of good self care (Eating healthy, being active etc).

>> No.13597878

It's a cope but I'm also into welted footwear so it felt silly to drop hundreds of dollars on nice shoes and not dress at least presentably.
