Why do people still come here on a regular basis seeking support

>>11369561
OP you're about 75% fucking retarded and 25% completely correct. Everyone here dresses like they're over 30 and no-one over 30 is a hypebeast. Rick isn't played out, and everything everyone wears here is nowhere near played out in real life. You're just imagining the public as if they all dressed like /fa/ does.

I agree with the last part though, everyone should have their own dressing sense and not just go with what others wear in order to feel special.

>>11369572
I don't know where you live, I live in western europe and half of the fits I see here I also see on a regular basis on the streets being worn by 13 year olds.

The shit posted here might be cool and original if you live in fucking kentucky but nowhere else in the world is half of this shit considered creative, especially not when a lot of "inspo" on this board boils down to copying fits.

>/fa/ is one person
Please stop this meme anon
I realise 95% of this board is utter shite, I come here for that good 5%
I know there are still people on here who aren't completely memed to death and can actually think for themselves

>>11369561
I'm here for the drunken shitposting, idk about you senpai.

Hey, you earned it

>>11369595
it's cancer all the way down, sorry pal

>>11369583
of all the damn fits i see on here so many of them are stupid formal shits or high-end stuff

I also live in Western Europe too and all the 13 year olds I see just wear nike and adidas tops with joggers and some cheeky huaraches or air maxes with their stupid side bags

Depends whereabouts you're from in Western Europe though

>>11369626
I live in Germany and get the exact same expression of 13year olds

>>11369631
Are you the guy that I replied to? I live in the UK so literally everywhere I see 13 year olds they're all cheeky little faggots with their cheeky trims, I didn't know Germany was like that too lol

>>11369642
Nope m8

>>11369642
I'm from France.

>>11369668
I wholeheartedly agree with this

Just out of interest what clothes do you wear, I'm not going to insult you or anything, just wondering

>>11369668
Yeah, pretty much.

>>11369583
>>11369626
Lmao dude /fa/ doesn't post high end shit that looks like you have to be 30+ to wear. As a matter of fact you'll see that most people bully and shitpost on "menswear" because you have to be 40 or over to wear loafers apparently. Not that I do, but /fa/'s opinion regarding clothes is fucking retarded. Honestly I think all posters outside bigger cities should be fucking banned. Not only are they completely clueless and think that they are original with their CPs (again nothing wrong with CPs; I own a pair myself) but they also apply their redneck countryside to the whole world.

as with teens most teens where I grew up (Stockholm) are basically the /fa/ prep general incarnate, which is why I've shitposted in those threads because honestly you don't need a fucking general for prep. It's just too easy.


I currently live in London, most teens dress like fucking shit here and go out with "le epic streetwear" probably because they wear uniforms so they don't feel like wearing anything more "grown up". This is where I think the shit comes from that you need to be a certain age to dress something

Don't misinterpret my post though because I generally cringe or trash talk faggots who "dress up" with zero thoughts into their fit and then get butthurt because we here on /fa/ call them out on how shitty in looks

went a bit off subject here but I'm on the train right now and nothing to do so fuck you

>>11369695
I don't see how any "style" can be shit on.
I understand most "street wear" is ill-thought out and mostly looks pretty trashy but I've seen plenty of well done, creative street wear fits (admittedly they are a bit rarer).

>>11369695
talk shit, tell us about your fit then im quite interested

>>11369695
>prep general
Actually havent seen one of those around for a long time

Also even through you have at least some valid points you seem to be a huge cunt since the style the text is written in expresses how superior you feel nonstop

>>11369702
yes I absolutely agree with you - which is why I'm shitting on both streetwear faguettes and "dressing up" fedoralords. Either can be done and there's nothing wrong with either - it depends on who you want to look like. Obviously if I only dressed in prep/#menswear people would think differently of me than if I wore full Rick. Fashion is about expressing yourself after all.

>>11369704
on my phone soz

>>11369732
You being on your phone doesn't mean you can't explain what kinda stuff you wear or what your style is, I wanna know

>>11369668
Fuck. This is too true.

We've had so many meta threads about addressing problems and improvement of the board and look at where we are.

GAME OVER MAN, GAME OVER

>>11369561
>>11369668
Everything that is fked up on this board is taken up here, which is kinda nice.
Including this fucking shit that really needs to GTFO >>11369568

We should create threads that encourages creativity. Does anyone have any ideas?

>We should create threads that encourages creativity.

We have the /diy/ threads and the inspo threads. They can be improved.

Here's a link with some books and documents:
https://mega.nz/#F!9wsn1CiI!1NjhrqWnRLahQ9cvBKvwnQ

For the latter I think we need to make a general inspiration thread. What influences your style? We have too many bullshit threads about specific shit, like "shorts inspo", "slav military inspo" or "/fa/ artists".

Some other shit I took and cut from another thread that could serve as a little pasta:
Protip: an inspo image contains ideas which can be applied in different fits either as direct inspiration or reaction. Inspiration is about taking elements you like and incorporating it yourself to make something different, not for imitation or duplicating.

You know what would be cool
If /mu/, /p/, /lit/, /his/ and /fa/ would collaborate to make some lookbooks
shit would be so cash and get us some respect.

/fa/ is full of trend hoppers but so is every other fashion discussion site out there whether it be a forum or reddit.
i'm one of the few who don't follow trends and do my own thing. i barely ever post fits because i know nobody's going to offer any constructive opinions of value, but when i do there's always someone trying to label my look as this-core or that-core.
think outside the box a little and be creative. don't shoehorn yourself into labels and accept the fact that if you're under the age of like 25 you probably don't have a developed sense of fashion yet you're still figuring yourself out. create your own looks, don't follow the sheep to the latest hype designer. i do high fashion too but if you just cop someone else's style every day of your life you really don't have any steez.

Honestly it depends.
I grew up in the upper classes so naturally I wore sort of what many fedoras on this board tries to emulate - upper class "prep" or whatever you wanna call it.
I don't want to use too many memeterms but I personally dress in sportswear inspired clothing and scumwave-y shit and have done that the latest two years when living in London, but it's only been inspired by it, not wholly shitty chav gear.

I'll say this: I wear my clothes based on colour. Every garment must 'click' with another garment.

>>11369585
i come here exclusively so i can get inspo and occasionally read a good bit of conversation. i just like to see the pics people post and find new things to wear that i never would have seen irl. not trend hopping or anything, just finding new stuff that i slowly (if ever) get around to copping

>>11370256
im pretty sure /p/ makes one at the end of every year with all the best photos of the year. granted i havent been on /p/ in absolutely ages. you can only look at other peoples photos and read the same fights over and over again for so long.

Me too third bottle is open it's my birthday and (I know no one cares) I just like looking at people. Would have never heard about yohji without /fa which looks comfy at least.

Pretty much this. The board's gone downhill so I shitpost/give bad advice unless the style is something I like. That's rare these days though, since a lot of sportswear/streetwear chav shit is popular with normies these days. They should all kill themselves

>>11371643
Damn you are good at this, I cant even tell if you are shitposting right now

>>11369668
this

i only come on here to laugh at the awful fits posted

>>11370588
I thought Stockholm was a swede too, turns out he isn't. Once I responded to him regarding prep and he just replied with "I don't speak sandnigger." Very funny, when you shitpost you should turn your trip off at least.

any good alternatives?

>>11369561
I've been gone a couple years, but on the low I will curate a culture for the board again. It takes time, and a lot of cyber bullying, but it will be done.

A few hits to the self-esteem will chase casuals away.

Make sure to report the anorexia threads and let everyone in the face rate threads know they are ugly. Fuck, if you see anyone's face tell them they are ugly, and I do mean WAYWT threads

>>11372478
>muh chase the casuals away
>muh elite /fa/
what could possibly go wrong?

>>11372505
What went wrong is tumblr, reddit, and plebeians infiltrated and they need to be chased out so the board can establish an identity again, you fucking jackass.

I have only one Reason,why I lurk /fa since many years: To Compare my Superior Killer Outfits (that I would never share here or anywhere else on the Internet unless it would win me some Money or a Job in Hi-Fashion)to all that bullshit posted here since like for ever! Gives me an enormous Boost, to see that my Wardrobe is 10x better then everyone else around here. I guess I am not the only one that come here for similar reasons. Besides there are tons of nice Posts though I would never Contribute anything here.

>>11369561
This is absolutely correct but, the one question is: Why are you here?

>>11374431
There are two answers:
1. Bait
2. You are frustrated in your genuine pursuit of actual fashion advice, and you've run across a board of underdeveloped teenagers who regularly ask people to
a. post a picture of an outfit to copy
b. ask what cigarettes are "effay"
c. assume that fashion has one silhouette

Both of which answers lead me to this advice:
please leave this cancer they call a image board you won't find any hope here.

There are other places, but they don't have the anonymity, lack of ID and quick accessibility that 4chan and other 'chans' offer.

anyone have suggestions for fabric to use/ where to get it? Im thinking of trying this out

>>11374515
1. Use google
2. Post in the /diy/ threads
3. At a fabric store. Choose tricot/stretchy
