what city do you live in and what sort of style is appropriate there? ie: do you feel uncomfortable wearing higher fashion due to crime or feel as though you would be mocked or disrespected for wearing the style you'd really like to be able to wear? or do you love where you live and feel free to wear whatever you want? talk about it

I live in Grand Rapids michigan. Nobody even notices I'm wearing expensive clothing they just say I look nice. I'm sure if I dressed in rick owens they would think I'm some emo from 2006.

I live in London and it's a real pain figuring out what I should wear here. I don't subscribe to any general style like gothninja or whatever and generally people here dress like the people they hang out with do. The issue is every scene has their well-dressed people, and I don't know what kind of look suits me. 6'1 auschwitzmode wyatt boy btw.

i live on the southside of chicago in an all black neighborhood (because i can get a huge luxury apt for very cheap). i dont feel out of place, or if i do ita because im the only white guy not because of my fits. even when i wear my more nxtlvl, goofy fits i dont feel out of place, nor do people look at me strangely. thats probably because ghetto black ppl dress pretty wacky to begin with. ppl actually compliment me a lot (maybe i remind them of a$ap rocky?)

i'd feel more out of place on the northside where guys wear chubbies and polos and boatshoes like its a mandatory uniform

Used to live in hyde park. elderly black ladies complimented on the forme d and rick. No one had ever said anything about it being weird or wrong somehow. I don't wear clothes for other people to "recognize them being expensive" .. or not wear things because "people might not understand" What kind of insecure bullshit is that? Wear what you like and wear it with conviction. If the other people don't like it, they can promptly look away, go fuck themselves, etc.

Live in Brisbane, Australia. Most of the year it's too hot not to dress in stubbies and thongs, so if you do you get some looks and people asking you how you can wear that stuff, but the few times it's cool enough people are chill so very little negativity.

Philly.

I wouldn't walk around northeast or deep west with any sort of nice clothes. You'll get robbed right quick. Rest of the city is fine. Fashion is weird here. A lot of menswear and hipsters in center city and gentrified areas. Decent amount of AZNs in streetwear too.
