[@ceb0lla904]

I'm into vintage fashion (like very vintage, Edwardian and such) and even though aesthetically I have grown past it I learned a lot about what to value about clothes. 100 years ago it was commonplace for clothes to be made to fit, by hand, by a local tailor. No brand, not even tags. It's very common to see patches, fixes, clothing made smaller or bigger to fit someone else, or to fit a new fashion trend. It was made to be used, and to last. And to look pretty ofc (my fav example is when things were made bigger by adding a strip of lace 🥰). it was a totally different philosophy and you can tell literally by looking at the pieces. Made me appreciate clothes as objects made by someone. To be clear I'm not saying the past was better (it was not) but it gives you perspective. I could go on forever about this xddd anyways loved the video, keep these discussions going

The last part really struck a cord with me. I ask myself a lot whether I want stuff because I genuinely like it, or if I want it because it’s in my face right now. I’ll look at my old online wishlist from time to time and forget why I wanted that particular product so much.

Wearing something slightly out of the norm gets you stares,laughed at, and judged. Ngl I do get upset when influencers pretend that they wear strange or slightly different fashion out into the real world.

[@joeeeee256]

Boomers always staring and judging me for being male and wearing baggy overalls like its the 90s, feels like I really can't wear anything even slightly different to the norm

[@black-nails]

Ofc influencers make money off that and could not wear it out, but if you truly care about the weirdness and it means something to you, finding other people that care about you & don't judge will give you bravery to wear more different stuff. Quite a lot of my friends have very distinct styles and it creates an atmosphere of acceptance, even if few people could stare :-)

[@fivethousandnine]

Wearing Walter Van Beirendonck in the city really tests my self confidence 😅

[@shamusson]

That's what you are trying to cause when you wear something out of the norm. Why are you angry at something when its all just cause and effect?

[@Iknownothig]

No matter how hard I try, I can't understand how people are wearing certain outfit for only the picture. Like something I love about fashion is the way I can express myself in certain ocasions and locations. And I think that it's also really cool thaat someone can share their outfits with thousands or millions of followers, but in what case would you prefer fake wearing it online that actually using the clothes around people family and friends.

[@jeppyjep]

Same here. The reason why i have so many death metal band tshirts is because i love death metal. I want to show support for the band and i want to show who i am; a metalhead. I also have a couple of anime t-shirts and sweatshirts because i love anime too. I dont know how some influences can wear things that they dont want to wear in public. I wear my death metal t-shirts that has designs full of skulls, blood and naked and disembodied human. I dont care what people think because thats who i am.

[@codawithteeth]

i can get it!! it’s like a set piece. a painter strokes their colors because they think it looks nice, and when they’re done, they might be proud and want to post it. does that mean they want to carry it around with them all day? no!!! they’re just proud of their work :> outfits are the same way. in a world where people can get ridiculed for wearing things slightly out of the norm, you are going to have people who still love creating outfits, but don’t want to face that ridicule.

the performative curation of one’s life through a lens is like the basis of this whole world, though. it’s ‘everyone is a company’, what do companies do? They lie, they try to come off as good entities, promoting good things, meanwhile behind the scenes it’s just about making money. the system we live in heavily promotes these ideals so we see it everywhere, but the pendulum always swings back.

i used to shop by trends and brands, but now i go to thrift stores and buy what i like, what i think is cool, and what suits me best. filling your closet this way is so freeing because you are shopping for yourself and what makes you happy, not for status - because status is always shifting. i really appreciate this video for making a stance against fast fashion and trend chasing, because it’s hopeless and draining. also, i really enjoyed this video. you can def tell he put lots of time, effort, and his personal take and thoughts into it. love when ppl are honest and venerable.

When I was first getting into fashion I was definitely one who cared a lot about the peices I had and how it appeared. And after a while of doing that I fell into what felt like a depression due to this facade I was attempting to maintain. When covid lock down hit I essential dumped my wardrobe and only purchased items that had value to me and put together fits that I love and make me feel good. It just so happens to be that many of these items I've acquired from thrifting regularly. I've found that this keeps that desire to consume in check while also being able to curate my style and life based on my individual interests and personality. I don't necessarily care anymore what people think of me or how I dress and I beleive that's really how it should be. Great video and hope this opens up some opportunities for others stuck in the system!

Thank you for bringing this topic to a forefront. I honestly had a bit of burnout in my own processing of this subject matter, and I can't even imagine what you went through trying to figure how to explain this in a way that was easy to ingest! Understanding that social currency is becoming a part of people's wealth systems is terrifying. Like the fact that dissociating from social media can result in the feeling of "not being a part of society" or disappearing is..... bonkers. I'm a musician / visual artist and its almost impossible in our era to find large scale success without being on social media, especially since I live in North Carolina. At the same time I see myself disappearing into the void of my own "outfit inspiration" or "music inspiration" tagged folders on instagram, and forgetting how to express myself naturally without looking for some reference to relate it to. I hope more people take the initiative to break from social media, and understand that if IG or twitter broke down, you'd have to learn to live with what is around you.

[@marcquees5312]

"They're truly gaining a lot from just posting this video instead of just ignoring Balenciaga on their own" can go even deeper on top of how good this video already is. A little over a year ago I took a break from social media because I needed to rethink my life over, work on personal development and figure out how I was going to move about once I did so. And Ive been thinking about social media. I started and still do began to think about my social media presence for when I get back on. " Is the perception I want of myself on social media for others to see or will it reflect real life and align how I actually live and move?" Even though Im not quite where I want to be personally I do believe that when I return to social it media will reflect my real life. I do think you should have a good social media presence if you do decide to be on there just for the simple fact that you want to look presentable as you would in real life but you also have ask yourself at some point "Am I only doing this just get validation?".

there are so many clothes i like that happen to be trending right now, like i enjoy rick shoes because it has a different proportion to most shoes and i’ve searched high and fucking low for high top shoes bc i think its the same as girls wearing calf high or thigh high boots/shoes and i’d like to recreate that specific look. Would i have ever wanted rick if it wasn’t trending? honestly i cant tell. But in many ways im thankful for it because its expanded my taste not for whats poppin rn but for what makes something stand out even if its in the slightest way possible and makes me want to explore that in different brands. Like if the jordan 1 model happened to have a style that is a couple inches higher than the regular shoe i would honestly buy those for that reason alone no matter the cost. Like this is my perspective on how and why i like certain things and while it may be trendy, if i had an alternative i would definitely look forward into attaining that item

[@serot0nergic]

One of my favourite things about where I live is that I can put all the thought in the world into my outfit and no one will ever know or understand what it is I'm wearing. It allows me to genuinely consider what it is I want to wear because in my community, nothing is gained by wearing ridiculously expensive clothing. Your social standing here is based on the kind of car you drive or the house you live in. Most people in my community are years behind when it comes to fashion trends and are just now being turned on to brands like Supreme. It's nice because there isn't some large community of influencers here parading around in $6,000 off-white outfits. This sort of fashion vacuum has really allowed me to consider the relationship I have with my clothing, and I honestly feel much better off for it.

[@jonathanvierbaum]

I study fashion and that was actually like the best fashion video I watched in a long time. I was having a conversation with a friend about that topic when I wanted to get Rick owens shoes and he was like: do you actually like them or do you think you like them because of their symbolic value? I ended up not getting them because it was too much money for me and I couldn't be sure if I actually liked them. What I'm trying to say is even as designers you are participating in this capitalistic society and it's hard to take yourself out and think of what people actually need. And then you're faced with the question: will people buy things that they actually need or will they just get things with more symbolic status? Can I make money of things which are really well made but don't look special? I love Martin Margiela for that because he made elaborate clothing and besides those 4 stitches which could easily be overlooked there was no branding or logo visible to serve as a social status symbol. He let the clothing and the quality speak for itself and that's outstanding to me.

Great content that allows for critical reflection. Personally, as someone who could never comfortably afford the fashion/luxury items I specifically want, I've nurtured a good relationship with upcycling clothes or sewing them by hand. I don't sell them either. Once you fall in love with the production process, especially when it becomes a personal catharsis for every social hurdle you're faced with, I find you develop a deep love for the things you find pleasant, beautiful, and intimate, including yourself. Though, affording all the material to constantly create pieces instead of simply buying things is a privilege of itself.

My favorite thing is thrifting all sorts of total cheap gaudy crap no one in their right mind wants, and putting bits and pieces together into personal hodge-podge outfits. It makes a style ( somewhat ) unique to me. I actually took up photography and often take photos of my fits, because I want to showcase them in a creative way. I still go outside dressed like a crazy person... Used to a lot more in my 20s but these days I need some kind of event to go to. It takes a long time to get ready and I got tired of doing it just to go... pump gas in my car or something. Only thing that's pretty much impossible to thrift is aesthetic pairs of shoes. Any good looking 2nd hand footwear is going to immediately be bought the second it's put on the shelf. I find the best bet there is to get well used pairs of common sneakers like vans or chucks online. They come in lots of colors and are easy to match to outfits.

Im not into fashion but your channel really inspires me to get into it. I mostly wear metal band t-shirts because i love heavy metal, but other than that, i just wear basic t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts and jeans. I never really care about how they look or how the layering works or not. I just wear them because it fits and comfy. If its a hot day, i wear a t-shirt. If its a cold night, i wear a hoodie. But now, i kinda want to try exploring this whole fashion genre because it looks pretty fun.

[@soraroxas60]

Can I ask for your photoshop template with the yardstick please?

[@lonewolf8667]

What I want from clothes is good quality. The fabric has to be comfortable and durable, seams that don't easily rip, the clothing item has to fit my body and I have to like the style. If the clothing item lack one of these qualities it will end up in the back of my closet or forever stuck on my hanger until I realise I should sell it or give it away. I have a Rick Owens top that I really like the style of, but I never reach for it because the neckline is pushing at my throat strangling me making it uncomfortable. It's an opposite issue with a Gaultier cardigan I have, it fits, is comfy and warm for the winter, but I feel cardigans look odd on me and the tattoo design just clashes with my face. The social value of these items are nothing to me if I feel uncomfortable or awkward.
