I'm 27, I'm practically 30.
How should someone my age dress? What are the essentials I should be wearing and what should I be avoiding like the plague?
I don't want to look like a label, like how in high school there were the jocks, the punks, the skaters. I just want to look like an adult.

there's an underground, up-and-coming designer by the name of "Rick Owens" you should look into. just wear his designs and pieces and you should be set! good luck! haha!

No. Anyone who does this is a faggot.

My approach since I was roughly 12 has been to dress 3 years older than I am. So look at a top-tier 30 year old and dress like that. I'm an undergrad so I just dress like the grad students. Has worked pretty well for me since you always look like a member of the cool group that everyone at your age is trying to break into.

This is pretty sage wisdom

Thank you comrade
>>12490487
youre such a faggot
bet you dress for girls too
>>12490487
The cool group? Nobody who's 27 should be aspiring to be in a "cool group". That's some high school tier shit.

Wow dude you're so cool wish I could hang out with you
Stop thinking like a high-schooler. Dress how you want to dress, obviously have some nuance, if you're gonna grab drinks with some friends, don't dress in a tux, and if you're going to work, put some makeup over your shitty face tattoos, but otherwise there's a world of possibility out there and you choose to think in terms of "Oh well this is what other people will think."
You're 27, start thinking about what you want, originality and owning it impress people more than looking generic, unless your friends are just as generic and close-minded as yourself.

This is your brain on aspergers.

do what >>12490573 said
dress however you want but be mindful of the context and what is appropriate
At your age the physical shape you're in matters more than your clothes.
Get (reasonably) fit so your body stays a consistent shape, then build a basic wardrobe, then come back and ask again.
