I thought this was a serious post until I got down to Express.

The problem is, you either expect people to read a 10+ pages long thread to help you, if not then what is minimalism for you?

Why is Uniqlo, MMM, GAP and Express for example - could actually ask that about any of the brands listed.

Sure, they all have stuff that goes well with almost anything, but so does a lot of brands. You need to expand on your own take on minimalism and hope that someone will help you, or maybe you can help yourself by searching.

If you find this thread irrelevant, unserious, or otherwise stupid, display that by not posting anything at all so as to let it fall to the bottom depths of the forum. Or if you feel strongly about the topic and would like make a serious and meaningful contribution or question, please post as much as you'd like.

Just don't be a dick.


If someone IRL actually told me Gap and Express were examples of minimalism in fashion, I'd ask them to STFU.

Like Knisse said, you want to start a thread on minimalism and can't be bothered to even define what it means? Wtf is this ****
