Why are women less interested in high fashion than men

Because to be into high fashion you need lots of money, and the only way women get lots of money if marrying a rich man

To appeal to the normcore and generally be accepted.

I've been on both sides, being interested in the regular F21, h&m etc back in high school before getting into high fashion. And IMO, the answer is that we're used to being exposed to fads and trends more than anything.

Fast fashion is easy, fun, "cute", cheap. Basically it's convenient and no girl is gonna give another girl shit for wearing gladiator sandals and a rosegold Michael Kors watch

perhaps as womenswear is a bajillion times better than menswear most of the time but as a result the pieces are more "out-there". compare this to menswear which usually works from a widely respected base garment with many distinct features such as a blazers, dress shirts, or sneakers them twists them in slight, weird ways but are always evidently working from a base garment. womenswear's identifying piece is the dress, which is perhaps the garment that allows for the widest degree of experimentation. its just basically a piece of fabric that drapes around the woman with holes for the head and limbs. a blazer has lapels, buttons, pocket squares, and other distinct features that makes a blazer a blazer while dresses are pretty bare-bones in terms of what makes a dress a dress. as a result, there is more room to experiment which makes them less wearable. compare the most out there blazer you can think of to pic related

at least those are my thoughts. i would love to hear your thoughts

women go to pinterest

I really don't think this is true. I worked at a designer mall for around a year and never noticed this. The type of women who are interested in high fashion wouldn't be on here though.

women buy much more high fashion accessories such as bags and shoes than men buy of anything high fashion related
in terms of clothes i can see them being about the same

>>11459376
Where I came from all the girls were into fashion, of course all of them where into fast fashion because high school money is hard to come buy and its more easier to buy quick than save up. We had that one fashion blogger girl that would have the occasional designer shoe, but was mostly mid-tier.

For guys, it was just buying polos and shorts or not caring at all. There was this other kid that was into fashion, but he was r/mfa and I was /fa/.

>>11459417
I know a couple of girls who went to FIT. That place is a shitshow. Everyone trying to outdo each other. One girl i knew spent all of her money on clothes instead of textbooks, food, etc. She went broke the first semester and had to call mommy for emergency funds. Funny thing is that the fashion design students usually dress bummy because they often pull all nighters in the studio. The kids trying to stunt are usually just like the marketing/advertising kids.

I'm just generalizing here but I think guys generally don't care if you stand out, or if they do, they think they're superior to other plebs. I think girls are more concerned with trends and fitting in or else they risk being ostracized from their peers.

Pic from r/femalefashion better but still pretty safe imo. Also r/femalefashion has 4k subs, r/malefashion has 44k

>>11459493
you can tell which kids in FIT are gonna have any success, by the exact way you describe. Weed out all the ones you describe and you have a handful of kids who are truly passionate about making garments and continually surpassing their creative ability.

Theyre prob on purseforums. Not sure how i got there but i remember browsing their rick thread. Was looking for some pics of roqt's

That's because women can't understand beauty of zx flux adv full black

>>11459498
Strongly agree with this anon. From my experiences, all my female friends/exs have stayed with the trends because at least where I grew up, you got destroyed socially for not dressing the norm

Women aren't interested in fashion they're interested in looking good. Every time I ask one of my female coworkers if fashion interests them like clockwork they always reply yes. I rebut by asking them who their favorite designer is, usually they can't even name one if they can it's either Michael kors or Marc Jacobs. They like fast fashion and tasteless fads, very rarely will they refine a style.

>>11459376

WOMEN ARE ONLY EVER SURFACE LEVEL INTERESTED IN ANYTHING YOU FAGGOT BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS GET SHOWERED WITH COMPLIMENTS NO MATTER HOW PLEB THEIR SHITTY FUCKING """"""""""TASTE"""""""""" IS. ITS NOT ENTIRELY THEIR FAULT THO, ITS THESE FUCK ASS LOSER DUDES WHO ALWAYS ENCOURAGE THIS BULLSHIT BY SAYING THINGS LIKE 'OH YEAH STACY I TOTALLY THINK YOU LOOK GOOD IN THOSE HOLLISTER JEANS ;^)' OR 'YEAH THE ARCTIC MONKEYS ARE A REALLY GOOD INDIE BAND LOLNO I DONT THINK MANY PEOPLE HAVE HEARD OF THEM WOW YOU'RE SO INTO MUSIC YOU EVEN BUY REPRESSES OF NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL OH DANGGG SUCH A MUSIC SNOB XDDD' AND BULLSHIT LIKE THAT BECAUSE GUYS ARE SO FUCKING DESPERATE TO GET LAID.

>>11459538
there were always be a over supply of thirsty dudes but I don't think a lot of girls I know could stand all the shit and insults that happen here daily.

>>11459423
I agree women have socially allowed to be more experimental and free in terms of garment choices but most women, even those who seem really interested in fashion, are more interested in the most current trend and fitting in.

CLOSE YOUR COMPUTER you autist. GO OUTSIDE. All the people who buy high fashion, instead of just jerking off to inspo pictures, are rich women and their boyfriends.
Fashion design has been built by and for women; it's arguably the only design field that's like that.

>>11459641
yeah. women who are "into fashion" usually brlwse at f21, zara, asos, etc.

>>11459623
junya's work has that really evident difference as he focuses on modified basics for men but wild shit for women. someone like rei or yohji could be a fairer comparison

>>11459376
I feel like it's probably confirmation bias from the circles you're in if you find that.

I just dress in menswear instead of trying to find a female version of this place. Basically, you can pick from instagram look (dutch braids, contour), /r/femalefashionadvice look (zara, old navy boots), or sugar girls who dress in Chanel exclusively. I'm already andro physically so I'm eternally /fa/ with this look

>>11459376
because they have less ego

Maybe this has to do with the way we've conditioned women and men to participate in consumerism dating back to the industrial revolution. When the sack suit became the men's everyday functional uniform, upper class men had to find new ways to brandish their wealth. Most often this involved decorating women (possessions at the time) in the most lavish frocks and accessories possible. The fashions of the upper class were able to trickle down through the social pyramid faster with everything becoming more quickly producible.

Fast forward a century and we've basically ingrained stereotypes of manly men not caring about fashion and women being frivolous and needing to be constantly decorated into society. The sack suit only slightly evolved into the three-piece business suit. It seems men who want more creative fashion options while maintaining quality are forced to seek out niche fashion communities which revolve around certain aesthetic ideals while women have boundless options at all income/quality levels widely available to them and thus don't require such communities unless their tastes revolve around a particular niche.

Designer fashion as a status symbol is astronomically priced. People no longer need to invest in a high-quality brand piece since it will be out of trend next season (there are now approx. 6 merchandising seasons), thus they buy the fast fashion copy; the demand for such being so high it's resulted in a decline of quality of such Veblen goods but nobody notices because that's the current standard. When social media sped up the trend cycle, the fashion cycle, and thusly the fast fashion machine, it's no wonder trendy girls don't really seek to look for clothes much further than what's right in front of them.

Woment dont care about fashion, the only thing they care about is spending tons of cash on cheap clothes and looking trendy. They are unable to appreciate it "deeper" level

Can you actually back any of this up with statistics? Keep in mind that the fact that you are aware of more women who are into fast fashion than men, does not mean there are less women into high fashion. The gender distribution of a Chinese cartoon board also doesn't count as evidence.

>>11459423
No idea if this argument holds up but I can see it. I like men's fashion but it's 90% functional first and never reaches the levels or ornament of female fashion.

If you ask any average young guy what his favorite shoe brand is they're all going to say fucking Jordans. Or adidas, or nike, whatever the trend is. Normie women "follow" fashion in the same way men "follow" shoes. Or any other thing applied for each gender. Most only learn enough to not get ostracized in their circles.

>>11459376
the answer is probably in that you don't actually speak to any women interested in high fashion and prefer the sweet lube of confirmation bias when it comes to fashion communities. Women's high fashion is a much larger industry than mens, they just don't talk about it on pithy internet forums (which are shit, and widely known to be male dominated)

did u think about this much before you posted

>>11459376
Tbf /fa/ is mostly populated by males and reddit is populated by plebs.

Do you know that many fashion conscious guys irl? Because I don't know any. I only come across them here, and even then it's the same few circlejerked designers or European mid range brands like Acne.
And still there are plenty of threads here asking about Zara, h&m, fast fashion stuff.

I think a more logical answer is that unless you know a lot of people with an income that can stretch and the time to experiement, then knowing people irl who are actually into fashion isn't that common - men or women. You'll find the people who like the current street wear brands or whatever, or girls who like Vivienne Westwood because they think they're being edgy, but I don't find much else myself.

Of course you've also got to consider how magazines have been peddling fast fashion as just "fashion" to women for a long time, so a lot won't hold a distinction in their minds.

I tend to agree with these anons statements because I too have had similar experiences although there are exceptions.

Like for example these 2 sisters I know. They are /fa/ as fuck even though they are not interested in designers or fashion blogs. It just comes from inside. They often shop at second hand stores but they don't have that thrift look.

Pic related: one of them. Can dump more if interested.

>>11460370
>Do you know that many fashion conscious guys irl?
Yes, please ask yourselves this. It's easy to feel superior about fast fashion girls at your work place, college or kindergarten, but seriously ask yourself how many guys around you are into high fashion or even fashion at all.

>>11460402
>limp, shoulder length hair
>thin shirt
>black leggings
>wedges

this isn't /fa/, this is normal basic bitch. but you're right, women are naturally good at choosing clothes that look good, even if they're not high fashion, because their gender roles call for it.

>>11460384
but it's not

There's more pressure to follow trends for females and that means constantly adding new pieces to fit in. Assuming they're not loaded, it makes sense to stick to stores like Zara or nastygal where they're basically told what's in right now and can choose from their collections instead of constantly looking up high fashion trends and designers and whatnot. For men, you can invest in quality pieces that'll last you a long time. It's really not the same.

because you fucks harass them whenever they say they are girls so they lurk and don't mention it

Males just love to nerd out on something...doesn't matter what it is.

Because girls have no dedication whatsoever.

They try something out, say they love it, they'll go onto their social medias and add X to their list of interests, they'll continue doing it for a while longer then they realize that they can't progress any further without having to struggle.

This can be applied to relationships as well.

As we talk about fashion i`m thinking about the anorectic girls...they are addicted to the feeling to be thin and to not eat. so i`m askin myself sumthin what if a obese girl like me tries it out for a couple of weeks to not eat will i start loving the feeling of losing weight and maybe start an addiction after the trialperiod? Or don´t u think hat might happen? maybe it wont change my eating habits or maybe it will work? I guess I´m about to try this. not only to lose weight but i wanna know the factors which lead to anorexia.

objectively false. if you look at the entire population of earth and count the amount of people who even know who rick owens is, it'll literally be a fraction of the amount of girls who shop at F21 for brown boots, black leggings, and a green parka.

just because internet fashion forums are inundated with "raf, rick" fanboys doesn't mean that translates at all to the main stream of people.

you're comparing a niche interest group to a population norm and saying that the niche interest group outnumbers by a landslide?

are you honestly trolling or do you have no concept of scale?

That's because ffa is a terrible hugbox that upvotes cripples and trannies while actual questions remain largely ignored. There's one 'question general' where they encourage everyone to post and you may or may not get an answer. They also have their own little clique of regular posters and anybody who disagrees with them is a bully who just doesn't understand fashion like they do. There's no fucking point in posting there because it's all chubby Americans bragging about their trip to Europe (specifically France) by asking a seemingly innocuous question ('what should I pack?') despite the same question having been asked countless times before.

I checked out FFA, why are a good amount of them literal whales?

>>11462302
is this cherry picked or is this a good sample of their fits? why is everything so boring

>>11462442
Go see for yourself, most of them are like this. These all get tonnes of compliments and asskissing btw, actual concrit gets downvotes because ppl r mean :(

There are some good ones but they're generally rare. And the ones that post in WAYWTs are usually the best of the best.

>>11462374
Because everybody is beautiful and body types don't exist, wear what you like! :) (upvotes please)

>>11462248
ayy lmao thanks for the examples, anyways I think I've checked out their general discussion before and it's the most random shit, like they don't even try to talk about anything fashion related, mfa on the other hand typically does

>>11459417

This is fucking awful

>>11464052
General discussions usually are that though on reddit. Like how general sections on forums used to be unrelated shit in like 2005

higher fashion is for faggots, basic fashion is for people who want to look good.

>>11459376
women are under the impression that they're inherently fashionable so they don't really look beyond what's popular with their peers

o god

see this is why I like 4chan, at least we wont give each other false credit, you'll just get drilled into the ground if your fit sucks and that's how you'll improve

becuse they like to follow trends and are materialistic so they just need a lot of clothing. With limited resources that means the quality is lower.

women are disgusting creature with shit taste, being gay is the only way to be /fa/.

not true, they are just on social media, they don't browse forums etc and if they do it's like vogue or some shit, there's literally 100 group chats for high fashion with only girls in.

>>11460446

yes there is, her outfit is terrible ON HER, not everyone can wear every outfit and look good

>>11464552
i agree, i think this why some women are delusional everyone even their friends coddle them and feed them lies so they never develop self awareness.

kys faggot.

gays are honestly vomit inducing. they are the cringiest creatures when it comes to fashion.

always over the top, flamboyant , tacky and attention seeking.

>>11462248
trannies always post in FFA or the makeup subs, because the beginners link in the sidebar isn't good enough for them, nor are the other 500 tranny posts asking the exact same questions. it's always some guy with a massive linebacker build too

ive noticed that a lot of the girls i know are interested in designer/high fashion stuff, at least have browse stuff online and have items they want to cop, but have this urge to constantly be buying new shit or to go 'shopping' so they end up going to h&m or f21 to satisfy that need instead

>>11460046
Very insightful post

>>11465094
That fit hurt my eyes.

Gays are alright but just watch out for the ones with sugar daddies and inheritance money, someone should gas those.

>>11459376

women stick to shit like facebook, instagram, pinterest, n tumblr cuz they're more interested in the opinion of others

there are some men and women interested in deeper levels but most of yall are fucking sheep who might know a couple meme designers

>>11459376
they don't need fashion to get led.

>>11461170
That's because the average female is more experimental with her clothing than the average male. Key word being average, I know we all think we are superior on fa, but most guys wear jordans and joggers. Fast fashion companies can mimic high end womenswear better because they know that there is a demand for it. The extent of experimentation that an average guy is open to is maybe a gaudy Givenchy knockoff tee from Zara. Guys have to venture out more to find interesting designs because we are such a minority in the fashion industry.

you know why the average female is praised for mediocre taste in every thing? because the average male has shit fucking taste too.

>>11466699
More like he doesn't even have taste. Average beta is complimenting just to appease, if he even has an opinion he doesn't dare say it if it's negative.

it seems like most of you dudes are unaware of how small a sample size /fa/ is
there are billions of other boys on the earth, most of whom don't give a fuck about fashion whatsoever
they are the male equivalent of what OP is describing - pacsun, american eagle, h&m, jcrew, etc, caring about "swag," caring about fast fashion trends to post on facebook
just because guys don't do that shit on /fa/ doesn't mean there isn't a huge number of them doing it
just because you don't see the female equivalent of /fa/ doesn't mean that there aren't girls interested in fashion
im sure most girls who are into fashion would say the same thing about boys - that they don't care about fashion - because that's what the majority shows

>>11464414
im fuckig crying

women don't have hobbies besides coffee, cocks and gossip

>>11459376
Women spend lots of money on makeup, creams, haircare products, beauty salons, hairdressers, fake eyelashes, nails, tanning, group sports and so on. Not that every woman does all those things but even if you use just mascara, from certain age you need to eat healthy, do sports and use lots of different lotions that are very expensive. Even the most common shampoos and razors are more expensive when they are branded for women. Because women are used to paying more.

So it doesn't really leave you with much money. Even if you are lucky enough not using beauty products, having naturally fit body and cutting your own hair, women's fashion is so much more diverse. Unless you have very boyish style, you won't be able to buy only some sneakers, jacket, some jeans and t-shirts. Women have usually lots of clothes and when you see how many types of clothes are sold for men and women, there are lots more for women. It probaqbly has more to do with the fact that women's clothes usually show off their body and are just not that loose, so you need more pieces and different outfits for different weather.
High fashion clothing for women is really expensive and because they look so different from normal clothes, for instance, even how they are made, very detailed, so they won't really match with clothes from Zara.
Not all women prefer or are able to wear streetwear that is very common for men who care about fashion. Streetwear is usually loose and looks good on women who are very skinny, women prefer to wear something that is tight and therefore is more expensive because it is harder to sew.
there are some streetwear brands on dollskill.com for instance but it means you have to like that type of fashion. Many women who care for fashion are making their own clothes. Also, women usually wear more different colors which makes filling your wardrobe more expensive because many things won't match

>>11465440
>>11465440
actually, that type of fashion men use makes women less attractive for most men. They look "cool" and if they are slim supermodels, they get attention anyway but for an average woman it makes more sense to dress "sexy" and not fashionable.
Most female high fashion are made for very skinny boyish women so even average fitness model looks fat in those outfits

this is pretty accurate desu

I'm assuming most of you are male and have never really looked into female clothing. There are 2 major differences between male and female clothing:

1) Female clothing is generally cheaper than male

2) There is not nearly as much variety to chose from in female clothing than men's. Just browse any online vendor like ASOS etc and you will notice the female clothes section appears extremely limited in comparison to the vast variety of men's section.

But most importantly, women are genetically programmed and indoctrinated by society to sexualise themselves. Most women literally define themselves by their worth on the sexual market. Their whole perception of aesthetics and form are based on the system of sexual attraction towards men. Thus the wide majority of females would rather chose their clothing in a way that highlights their sexual attributes, rather than something that conveys an attitude or personal style. In essence, nobody gives a shit if a woman wears 5€ t-shirts and 20€ shoes, as long as she's feminine looking, she will be considered good looking.

Men don't have that mindset. Men chose their clothing to purvey a certain image, which is mostly based on either hyper masculine brainwash bullshit or some kind of cultural subgroup. This is also one of the reasons why men have so much more clothes to chose from.

The majority of people aren't into high fashion so it just seems like the women you know aren't into it, if anything there are more women who are into high fashion than men

>>11459523
>liking fashion means you have to know all of the goof ninja shit
That's like asking somebody if they like movies, then when they say yes you start quoting Russian Arthouse directors. Stop being such a fucking faggot.

>>11469963
>I'm assuming most of you are male and have never really looked into female clothing

i can clearly tell you have never looked into womenswear at all when you spew this kind of shit

>>11469963

What the fuck are you talking about? Literally opposite is a given truth.

>>11459400
just shows you browse reddit

>>11469963
>1) Female clothing is generally cheaper than male

Depends what angle you're approaching it from.

Yes there's a greater range of low priced fast fashion available for women. You can find cheap £10 pleather women's brogues easily but won't come across the same for men.

But like for like in the same quality brackets men's clothing is less expensive than women's.

>>11459376

women are interested in fashion because they use it as a tool to get people to like them, generally if you're an average looking girl and you get on the trendwagon and buy everything from H&M people see you as trendy and then begin to like you.

For men this doesn't work so what they once used as a tool to get people to like them eventually just becomes a hobby.
