What does it mean (to you) to 'understand' fashion?

>>12145335
Fashion is fucking stupid. Personal style is fun. Who cares if something is "in season". If its nice, its nice.

Whoops. I meant to include personal style in that question, too.

i dunno bro. Trend hopping may make you look fashionable. But proper 'effay' people have their own style if you know what I mean.

To understand fashion is to be either one of those groups

it's just about you looking good and being confident in your clothes

>>12145335
Self expression, confidence instead of egotism, creativity but also nuance/tact. On the more literal side, understanding proportions, colors, silhouettes, and general aesthetics. What works for you and what doesn't (thick people in skinny jeans, suburbanites in streetwear etc.).

trend hopping makes you look "stylish" not fashionable

To have good taste and understand color coordination.

Everything else is just a bonus

this is bait
