The thing is, unless you're on Styleforum, comments about outfits are always excessively positive. You can wear a green potato suit and people on Instagram will say "YASSSS KING."

It's only on Styleforum where you'll get people who say "you look like hot garbage," so this expenditure into "fake clothes" only means something if it changes opinions here.

Totally agree that most of the internet is a congratulations party over ****** looks.

But I assume you're being wildly sarcastic in implying any of our opinions here matter to the outside world.

Well there's no "outside world" in this sense since these photos are entirely online and don't appear in real life. Just saying that, if you're investing in this on IG, your experience on the platform is going to be the same.

Oh ok, totally agree.

Edit: But most of IG doesn't know SF exists. And likely wouldn't care.

Have you been in my wardrobe?

The most amazing thing about that video is that, even in digital fashion, the clothes look better in the product photos than they do "in real life." Like, the movement, the detailing, the "convincing" factor (vague, but whatever). All those outfits looked better in the product shots, whereas the ones the woman tried on just looked ... digital.

The idea that you have to stand outside in certain clothes for this to work also seems flawed. Just seems like a lot of work to post one fit pic that will disappear into the ether as people scroll by. At least with real clothes, you can mix and match to create new outfits over time, even if you're doing this purely for digital likes.

I'm sure you look like hot garbage in your wardrobe.

I bought a jacket here once that didn't exist and it was called Temple of Jawnz

Digital Temple of Jawnz is the next step though. Where you pay for a semi-cool fake jacket and then never get it

As long as you can pay for it with fake money, then no-one loses...

Temple of Jawnz was ahead of their time when you think about it ??

What you were really paying for was the internet cred.

Nordstrom what a mess...


Nordstrom shares tumble more than 20% as earnings fall short, hurt by higher labor costs, weak Nordstrom Rack sales
