Re: ramdom fashion thoughts

NYFW is definitely the weakest of the major fashion weeks. I was thinking that might be why HBA gets so much attention, because they're one of like 5 designers at NYFW that aren't just doing upscale j.crew.

Re: Opportunity Costs

http://i.imgur.com/py8nlS9l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/hYcLD2hl.jpg Been searching for jogger / sweat pants that I like for almost a year now with no luck. Thinking about these BoO ones but as a bigger guy I don't know if the quilting will look dumb on me. Most of my experience with quilted stuff is qu...

Re: feeltalk thread

Dude Ikea is the H&M of furniture, I don't know where you'd find something cheaper besides a garage sale. Real furniture is like 10x the price of Ikea.

For disposable furniture I think Ikea's design team is brilliant.

Re: Opportunity Costs

I would assume it's cotton in a ripstop weave.

I love the fred perry logo, but I guess I listen to a lot of skinhead music. I guess I could see how it'd be different for someone in England. Is it still seen as kind of chavy?

Re: "Placing things where they should be"

I guess I don't really get this brand. Here's what I know: * The name is pronounced "double taps" * They like to use crossbones * Streetwear dudes on the internet love them I want to say it seems like military inspired americana, or like vietnam era inspired streetwear, but most of the stu...

Re: Thom Browne S/S14

Haha this is great: The show was delayed by a painful 45 minutes, which is practically a Fashion Week lifetime, long enough to fit in several other runway shows. The tension was palpable. Finally, a team of white-clad nurses in hair nets, teased locks, and harsh little eyeglasses traipsed out, took ...

Re: ramdom fashion thoughts

That's kind of a bummer to hear. I always liked the idea of being able to fuck around with how you dress when you're younger, because once you start working your wardrobe choices becomes very constrained. Like as a 29 year old I feel I'm too old to wear a lot of the crazier shit I see, I can't even ...

Re: feeltalk thread

What Miley did last night was easily one of the most racist displays I've ever seen. From her insistence on twerking, to her use of all black women as literal props (they were teddy bears) to her smacking of her dancer's ass and the simulation of rimming, it is very clear to me, that Miley thinks t...

joan didion is a pop star who is basically following the teen pop star formula of shedding her good girl image by starring in a japanese porno at the VMAs. I think it's worth watching just for how bizarre it is. http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/942064/we-cant-stop-blurred-lines-give-it-2-u-medley.jhtml

Dress shirt non buttondown collars are something you could go mad thinking about. And if you want the collar to be wearable both with and without a tie you'll go nuts. Never really thought about it this way but it's true. Almost all my shirt collars are button downs, I don't have many proper dress ...
