How Minimalist Fashion Changed my Lifestyle

[@TriviRocks]

My grandpa used to say "if you wear a label, they should pay you for advertising their brand!" - I laughed. It's true.

[@bimaaditya6457]

HUUUUUUUUU

[@Dantick09]

It is good advice

[@Dreamcatcher0007]

Loved this and so true. However, we pay for just the lables.

[@TriviRocks]

@@Dreamcatcher0007 Haha. I don't.

[@blanche4444]

Fashion is something that I love but at the same time, I don't see the reflection of my love into a brand. I am never satisfied with the values and what the brand do about it. Minimalist helps me to find my love of fashion into simple clothes and second hand products Also I found minimalist in fashion when I started creating my own clothes. I treasure more something that I made !

[@CKSPACE]

Well said! Happy to hear that minimalism helps you with that. Stay intentional!

@@CKSPACE Dear CK Space, You definitely deserve these words and many more. You put a lot into your videos and I really appreciate them. Love from cold snowy Switzerland.

[@KissGinaChannel]

I liked the video and I absolutely agree with that no label wearing thing. But Margiela's stuff is ridiculously expensive for that who is really a minimalist and not a fashionista. Minimalism is not about highend stuff, I think.

[@alicegiovane3441]

It made me think that is kind of the same philosophy than the Japanese brand Muji, which litterally means "No brand" - and they indeed don't have labels either. I like the concept of these kinds of videos ! Keep up this great great work, I always look forward to the release of your new videos :)

[@dva5610]

@Tony blame the white people.

[@susanjones77755]

I love your videos...they are crisp and clean like white linen.

[@CKSPACE]

😂that's a flattering analogy! thanks!

[@nayaclark2342]

As a self-described minimalist, I wear lots of Black clothing and beige linens similar to the reasons you mentioned. On the other hand, I keep my room and the few pieces of furniture and decor in it white or with wooden accents. I love how everyone chooses their own approach to colour systems in minimalism. What’s everyone else’s approach?

[@nayaclark2342]

@@shhh.run. nice and simple 🖤🤍

[@neontomo]

Takeaways: 🖤 🤍 1. Make use with what you have (be resourceful) 2. Remove focus from the designer, bring it back to the garment 3. Use anonymity to create intrigue 4. White creates a clean feeling for better focus (at least in work) 5. Even anti-branding can be a sort of branding 6. Uniforms can eliminate hierarchy if everyone wears it 7. Don't stress too much about removing labels, they are on everything

[@solromero7415]

Very interesting, please continuing videos about these topic , thank you

[@b3naqua]

The mask part is so beautiful and conceptually resonant with today's culture, which can be so obsessed with concepts such as perfection, status, etc. Removing the visual temptation of a face to enter another level of thinking as a metaphorical boundary towards focusing on something else, something unknown, something less referential. A clean slate, a mystery.

[@teteroon]

Dude, I'm not into fashion at all. But your videos always make me watch through the end. You have a really calming voice and I really like the style of your videos. Keep up the good work! Greetings from Germany

[@CKSPACE]

Appreciate the support Tobias! Hope it can help you one way or another! 🙏

[@varunhooli2740]

Seeing your videos I bought like 2 dozen black tshirts now you say white is color of minimalism not cool Cheng....... Jk

[@CKSPACE]

Time to declutter! Jk

[@tonyg1296]

ACtuAlLy! White is all the colours together, black is the absence of all.

[@PreciousMe]

That answer is true in relation to light. When talking pigment, it's the opposite. Colormatters dot com has a great explanation to all the differences.

[@jessicaribeiro8928]

I love fashion but I was never a super consumist because 1st Im poor and 2nd I love being pratical. My friends say I don't have alot of clothes but the real thing is we don't need alot of clothes because we end up by using our favourites. All my clothes are my favourites

[@Christinamychas]

I loved the whole video, but the dog sealed the deal for me. Subbed! 🐶

[@ayoitselaine]

it's cool to see your passion for fashion still produce this sort of content :)

[@kazettique]

I am making my own uniform (as my wardrobe) since I've decided to become a minimalist. As time goes by, if I want to have a little variety of style in everyday dressing, I should re-consider and adjust my wardrobe might be. Which I resonate a lot in this video is: when you are lazy to think, you have some uniform outfit (as default), but keep choices when sometimes you want to change the style (but keep it to the bare minimum). That's the THOUGHT I'm considering recently!! To have the wardrobe with minimum choices, I can keep choosing the outfit very effectively, but without losing flexibility. (and JOY exactly, sometimes fashion brings me joy. 😄) You just made my thought into words. Thanks for sharing the idea about fashion. Cheers! 🍻

[@tt-rama2246]

You get simple, quality, labelfree clothing from MUJI for a fraction of the cost.

[@aizkirad3251]

Love your dog's name! You might already know that but it means "house" in french. Its funny in a lovely way I think. Great video!

[@OfficialWimpydoll]

Hi Cheng, thanks again for introducing me to new ideas. Btw, have you seen the trailer for the new Minimalist film? Kind of hoping that you will be featured there. :)

[@CKSPACE]

Glad you enjoyed it!😊 Haven't get to watch the whole trailer but i'm already looking forward to it!

[@pamgomez9694]

[@jessicacole5955]

[@CKSPACE]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Jessica!

[@astaradumont9924]

Keep videos like this coming! This is brilliant!! Thank you!

[@meredithcurtisgoode3850]

I love the philosophy stuff. The idea of minimalism and capitalism of any kind presents quite a conundrum, which can be seen in the development of that simple tag into a design statement that probably costs a lot to buy, when you can purchase an inexpensive, simple tshirt from a thrift store any time you want. I like reflecting on that kind of thing. How to have the fashion sense I want within my sustainable and frugal minimalist intent.

[@CKSPACE]

Thanks for the comment Meredith! That's beautifully put and well thought out.👍

[@deed.3879]

Absolutely please do more with minimalism design and philosophy. Your meta deep dive with this here was captivating. I had never heard of Margiela. This is such a commentary on minimalism but also art, and perception. You have a real strength for the medium of fashion. I hope you’ll continue with more video projects like these. (P.S. Maison means house in French- why is your dog named Maison? 😊)

Martin Margiela, sweatshirt $500, Tee: $240.. Yeah nope.

[@lorenobrien3598]

Extremely informative video! You deserve wayy more recognition!!

[@ouijafox6953]

I really appreciated the research and time you put into bridging the intersections of two topics that really encapsulate your passions. I enjoyed this video so much and loved the aesthetic and videography! Please continue to share and explore the philosophy/lifestyle approach. It really allows minimalism to be seen with greater meaning through the intentionality of owning less and is helping people deepen their self reflection on consumerism.

[@rogersantiago1892]

martin margiela is an avant-garde fashion designer. not minimalist. he loves the color white because it showed the wear in tear, not because he is a minimalist.

[@contactexit]

Good job!

[@aprilmarie1829]

This is my favorite video yet. Nice work. I have not heard of this designer and I love how you tied the concepts together. Thank you!

[@stickysamosa816]

i really loved this approach!! i also like to study fashion, but do not indulge in it as a medium for ethical reasons. would love to see more of this kind of work from you.

[@user-rn6hz8pb9s]

I do like when big brands go minimal but it's a rare sight for most brands

[@firdauskaswady2217]

I always remove any clothing tags.. Because they really irritate my skin.. And will cause serious itch when im absolutely drenched in sweat

[@claraarnold1723]

I used to get overwhelmed very easily so starting in my teens I always removed every label and was so glad that 7 years ago I discovered minimalism. I have no I knowledge of brands and tbh have never even heard of this one, but really enjoyed the video non the less. Thank you.

[@Devananta-Rafiq]

YOOOO long time silent viewer here since your Ricks and CCP days. So happy you are discussing fashion again in the channel, and even in better ways of doing it which is in philosophy point of view. So, is it too much to hope that you are going to discuss other maison in future videos? Helmut Lang next, perharps? PS: if anybody want to learn more about Margiela's design, you could watch Bliss Foster's series on Margiela's runaway shows here in KZbin. He is kinda problematic but you could learn one or two things from him.

[@DanielFrerix]

WOW! I am a minimalist, too. Since 2014. This Video is the most interesting Video I´ve seen since a very very very long time!

[@lawmiscellany1186]

It's ckspace wednesday again! I love how understated a simple shirt is but with a few tricks, it can be the most luxurious as well. I tried incorporate ckspace's philosphy in my wardrobe. As an example, i got rid of all my shirts that were not of a solid color. These days i only wear white, gray , black and brown. I always look put together because of the change. I also got rid of my worn out clothing and replaced it with higher quality pieces from uniqlo(similar what ck wears)🤣 Im a girl btw🤣🤣🤣 Tho i started with minimalism only last year, i can say that it has impacted my life deeply and cheng's video helped out alot. Here's to hoping you get more subs. 💯

[@CKSPACE]

Thanks for the kind comment! 😂nice, ckspace philosophy! Glad it helps you in your life! All the best to you and your minimalism journey!🙏

[@iristhehooman]

I'm anti-brand too! I never liked my sense of style to be linked to a particular brand, and finds it cheesy to wear shirts which brands are very easily identifiable. I knew the part, about people not wanting to cut of the four sides was coming! LOL! Margiela is such an interesting person, feels so relatable :P OMG. The dog part. HAHA!!!

[@Theralift]

I really enjoyed this video. I had never heard of this designer but the exploration of the brand and how it meshes with minimalism was quite interesting. Thank you so much.
