The WAYWT Discussion Thread

like that fit lel. personally i would prefer a vest with a different texture but i like all the rest

for those who have the ervell fairisle from this season, what do you wear it with? i have the ivory and don't find it very easy to pair with my other stuff. (i'm guessing the light blue/red would be even harder, but i dunno)
anyways, this is my attempt today to wear it w/ my other stuff boring i know..

just give it to me and dont worry about pairing it with anything^^

sick fit epoc.

you can have mine

This, to me, is just so wrongheaded, for so many reasons...

For one, all clothes -- mall brand, designer, etc. -- fit different people...differently. What you'll look good in has very little to do with price. For another, I doubt most can actually distinguish 'generic mall stuff' from the SF-sheeple brands. My best fit pic? A military sweater I said was Dior.

Hell, 99% of the prized 'hobbyist' looks are just rehashes of other, cheaply available clothing anyway. You can look like a rail worker w/o spending $500. And Lane, the Colombine killers nailed your aesthetic for much less.

It's a little dispiriting, seeing the kidz logging-on and being taught to revere the affiliate brands and dropping all their student loan money on these doll-sized ToJs indistinguishable from the Macy's house brand; it's even worse, a few months later, having to endure their sermons on 'quality', watching them become unpaid evangels for high-priced dreck, when all they might really need -- I'm looking at you, here, Lane -- is maybe just a hug and a cup of tea and perhaps a little tip-off that Evil ** Novak is not a good look for *anyone*.

Creativity: yes.

Variety: yes.

Unreflective brand-whoring: no.

lol i'm not giving it to you! it's one of the few knits that has the right sleeve length for me
and it's also an S. i gather you normally wear Ms.

I don't really like the pushed up sleeves on the fair isle, especially if the sleeves fit you well.

Yes they can, it's called "fit", a concept you don't have a very good grasp of according to your WAYWTs.

Agreed. Wear that bad boy the way it's made, not only because it would look better but also so douches like me who have a limited wardrobe can see what it looks like fully set on an actual person

God damn, you 'workout' and look like that? You're wasting your time... why do you keep saying your upper body is fairly built?

Stop and think about this for a moment. No one is built the same; there is no magical price point at which a slim-fit shirt will start looking great on everyone. Some will look good in a Merona shirt and bad in Zegna shirt; others will have the opposite experience.

That's why you get dress shirts tailored
