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

[LeeroyDaBoy]

I mean, it's hardly sincere, it's just playing into the whole "luxe" concierge service of Mr Porter, and there are other, far better stores I've bought at to where it's the same person answering the emails, posting your package, and including a nice handwritten note or postcard
Personally I hate stores like Mr Porter - they don't particularly care about clothing, they're in it for the money - it shows in the utterly non-cohesive brand line-up, the extremely boring buys, the fact that they jump onto brands seasons and seasons after smaller boutiques. Thanks to their backers they can do their ridiculous sales, offer return shipping, and all the other things that make it harder for smaller, directional boutiques to compete.

I think this is what you call a business.

Regis I just wore my cream viscose for the first time today after getting it back from the cleaners. It. Is. The. ****.
Might be tempted to get one of the current season viscose, holes and all, if it makes it to sales.

Aren't they awesome man? I have two and want at least 5 or 6 in various colors....they never make it to eBay either. I get the same reply from Margiela every time I ask them "we don't plan on re creating that item again".

I remember getting a lot of **** for my viscose knits...very T3C esque haha but that was back in the Regis only buys basics days. Funny half my pms now are about viscose knits

The unicorn part is kind of a turn-off.

You take that back you *************. You take that back and you never open your mouth again

Synthese is a unicorn riding space pirate. Don't insult his mighty steed.

Gundam unicorn was the best gudam series I've seen in a while.. Definitely worth your time.

My too "mr porter" comment was in terms of his styling of the items, not so much the actual brand list

 

[Abraxis]

Really? Damn. I have to say campily that I really liked Seed/Destiny. Or is it more badass in the vein of the more nostalgic series like Char's Counterattack or even Turn A.

Will have to check it out. Sunrise for life.

About that - is Gundam Unicorn actually worth watching? The unicorn part is kind of a turn-off. On the other hand, The Last Unicorn was a pretty damn good movie if you fast-forward through the singing part near the end (0), so maybe I shouldn't be so harsh on unicorns.

Unicorn is actually really good. It's set in the UC timeline after Char's Counterattack, so you're going to see a lot of tropes repeated from the original, but still very well done.

I'm sorry but this guy looks like a total jerk off. How is this even a look? Real men in the real world would laugh their asses off if a clown like this entered a room.

you're telling me he doesn't, dude?

ftfy, you dumb ******* ****.

ENGLISH, MOTHER ******. LEARN IT.

T3C, I bet if you fix your camera angle and had pics that were more square and less rectangular that would be half the battle. You are a tall, skinny guy, and I think you were the right clothes for your build, but I think the pics are fighting against you.

 

[MGD83]

Relax, internet tough guy. I'll delete my post.

Ehhhh, your original post says way more about your own background and experiences than it does about the guy in your photo. He's dressed in pretty standard 'dark minimal' designer garb, something that would hardly turn the heads of folks here in SWD. But I could see, from the standpoint of someone who lurks mostly in the Classic Menswear forum, how he could be viewed as a "clown" or a "jerk-off", particularly if the man viewing the picture lacked a certain curiosity or open mind.
