The What Are You Wearing Today (WAYWT) Discussion Thread, Part II

Shoreman - Looking good. Like the beard and the color combo. Who makes the sc?

You should try the Italian brands. Putting on a true well shaped unstructured jacket is a revelation

But Margiela is structured, as you point out yourself. I don't see unstructured Italian brands helping him attain the aesthetic he's got going on now. I personally don't wear too many MMM jackets because I usually want something slightly less padded but I certainly don't like the unstructured Italian look on myself. Suiting from Thom Browne, Jil Sander and Old Helmut Lang is much closer to what I want to see than something from Barena or whatever. The whole unstructured spazzatura look of MC is really seeping all over and it doesn't suit everyone.

Thanks! Spazzatura. Er, I mean, LBM 1911.

My daughter thinks it's funny to take pictures of me when I'm not paying attention.

Not sure if this picture is cool or weird, so I figured what the hell...

Looks like you've been shot and you're trying to extract a bullet out of your stomach in a calm and collected fashion

"Ugh, don't you just hate it when this happens? Hold on a sec, dear..."

I hope that was also a Baltimore joke. Stitches has been hanging out around the low rises.

so early and already hot, wish I'd worn more of a NN summer fit
I think what I like most about NN fits is the "I dont give a **** attitude", 'cuz that's always the best attitude to have

 

[Benesyed]



not so sure about this. at its best, avant garde **** can make the wearer look positively otherworldly, even to folks outside our little bubble. most people's reaction may not be "oh my, this right here is a well-dressed gentleman," but the alternative is even better-- you get to look like you've descended from Planet Awesome.

The reaction most of the time is wtf is he wearing (atleast up here in the NE). Occasionally there are people that are like hmm interesting.

People in the NE are where I live are narrow minded i guess

I'm thinking of stuff like the 'Professor Badass' phenomenon from a few years ago, when that Kevin Charles Stewart pic went viral. Wearing 'out there' stuff doesn't have to inspire revulsion from the non-fashion crowd.

I agree with you i am just saying that its often not received well. Another example would be the exhaust and pump trousers. My friend reacted it to it by asking why i was buying such expensive sweat pants haha
