Do you get flattered or annoyed when people not-so-subtly copy from your style?
I had a friend do this to me the other day, and I instantly felt very very annoyed. A bit ashamed at the same time, since I wasn't even aware of how much of an entitled shit I was about my sense of style. Guess it kinda just got a little too personal for me idk.
both. im flattered that they find my style worth imitating yet im extremely annoyed because i want my style to be my own
the worst part is that you can't call it out without looking like an egocentric douchebag
None of my friends are remotely interested in fashion/style so it's never happened to me. I've always been with the artsy/nerdy/school shooter groups. We either dressed like each other already or I grew out of clique clothing style archetypes. I even went full prep but found out I don't like it that much anymore.
Nothing wrong with it, imitation is the greatest form of flattery. Best thing you can do is steer them in their own direction, or modify your own style.

being copied is my dream senpai
it means you were a trendsetter. Once you get copied, it's time to change.

IDENTITY THEFT IS NOT A JOKE, JIM! MILLIONS OF FAMILIES SUFFER EVERY YEAR!
I've noticed that since I started being. Open about the fact that I like fashion, my friends are totally down to go shopping or ask me for advice on clothes. Idk, it's kinda nice filling a niche in my friend group
its great
managing to set small trends and inspire people is the best

>tfw a more attractive friend rips off you and it looks better on them
>tfw you're so trendy in the first place b/c you're lowkey compensating for less attractiveness
