>>18720339I don't recommend ordering hand woven unless you're buying it as an object d'art and you can get one with known provenance, or if you have more money than you know what to do withyou wouldn't be able to tell the difference between hand woven and machine woven, which mean that a lot of rugs being sold as "hand woven" are in fact machine woven in china, turkey, or indiathey intentionally set up the machines to occasionally make a loose loops, this makes recognising frauds very difficult for a non-expertsyou don't need a rural iranian village to spend a year making you a rugwhat you need to do is just make sure it's made from decent wool, optionally 50/50 silk/wool (silk for the warp not the weft unless it's a wall hanger)rugs at the end of the day are a wear item and you will want to replace it in your lifetime so the savings (and flexibility in size and design) of machine woven is a big bonusif you're an american you'll probably have to wait for the war to end before you can get your hands on machine woven persians againin the meantime you can get great rugs from the aforementioned countries, but NEVER pay a premium for "hand woven" rugs from these places
>>18733883here in the lowcountry I see a lot of people, especially old guys, wearing chinos and OCBDs, usually with some kind of crappy brown leather shoes that sort of kind of invoke penny loafers if you squint (I think if stores sold good american made loafers they would wear those, these are just what's available).I think that we are past the peak for casual slop; people who care about how they look are yearning for a return to tradition, at least to some degree.

>>18718280Moving to the southeast. Been out west for a while so all my east coast pastels/seersucker/etc. have been in storage ever since boarding school/college. What’s a good rule of thumb for not doing a prep overload? 1-2 pairs of flamboyant prep (Nantucket reds, needlepoint, croakies, etc.) per outfit max?
>>18733510>go on the internet and search "how to fold a pocket square">apply what you have read
i only started actively lurking on this board about a year ago and im surprised at how rarely weird/alternative styles make an appearance here. you'd think that on an image board where fashion is the main thing thats discussed there would be people who are interested in less surface level stuff as well.im not complaining, i dont spend enough time here for that, this is just an observation
>>18739954
>>18739954Goths, furries and stoners are hated here by the chuds.This is a place of demoralisation so such whimsy will not thrive here. If you’re interested in that alt tiktok is the place to be.
>>18739954I wouldn't consider alternative fashion "less surface level". It's usually just decade+ stuff regurgitated without the subcultural context. A lot of the "weird" fashion too is just people dressing androgynous or otherwise unconventionally for their gender.I think the real weird/alternative style is the way mentally handicapped people dress. You can find those looks on this board.
>>18740457ah that makes sense
how can I give myself emo hair?
You need a haircut with choppy layers and a big side bang. If your hair is too wavy you need to straighten it with a flat iron.
Show me your fedcore fits. Khaki pants and navy shirts welcome.
>>18733776Is Walmart trying to prevent unionization again?
>>18738461This has nothing to do with Patriot Front.
>>18738472PF probably has one or two undercover agents, but it's not "filled" with them. Instead, most members are uneducated, low-income kids from flyover states who couldn't make something of themselves.
>>18739637Blatant fed post
>>18739967You know I'm right.
the amount of people i see with creased and messed up clothes is fucking astonishing. you look like a disgusting slob. ironing your shit makes you 50% more /fa/ right off the bat regardless of what you're wearing.
>>18734301What if someone looks in your closet and sees a bunch of wrinkled clothes? They'll think your closet just got out of bed.
retard here: can you iron polos? mine are wrinkly but the steamer I got doesnt seem to do it
>>18739633hang dry and iron when it's damp
>>18739845gracias amigo
>>18739633Use the steam function on your iron and/or the spray function.
Why won’t Nike retro the 80s version of the blazer or other 80s era hi tops?

>>18740360sorry yeah I decided to stop being lazy and google search it. Those are cool but the new ones I don't like, they are midtops and I need hightops for my old man ankles
>broccoli cut left behind largely to only teens and kids now (mostly middle easterners, the whites have less of a broccoli and more of a bedhead flop)>fades are dead for whites and some latinos, sides are being grown out much more>"classic" haircut proportions are in, no hard side part BUT a sort of textured side swept flop for the front of the hair (recurring with all non black groups)>middle parts still going strong in many cases, now largely with curly hair though>a lot of shaggy textured beatles type cuts>modern mullet still around with some latinos
>>18739698shut the fuck up retard homo
>>18739395That's pretty interesting and thanks for the insights. Personally I am growing mine down to around my shoulders then getting it trimmed
I am gay and saddened that the skin fade is going away. They're so hot on men and clean cut. All the zoomers look like dirty smelly old hippies
>>18740040>I am gaykek burned
>>18740040Fuck having a peasant wage cuck haircut
What exactly does "form fitting" mean for men? The reason I ask is that one of my friends who is a woman said "Wow, I see you have your titties out today!" as a joke. I was confused at first but she said wearing shirts that fit biceps is like "showing cleavage" but for men. Do you think that is accurate? Like if a woman shows cleavage, its on purpose. If a guy is wearing a shirt that shows biceps, is that the equal to showing cleavage in the outfit / fashion world? More importantly, I ask because I have been wanting to sort of make myself more presentable I guess show more sex appeal as a man but it seems impossible to do it in a way that doesn't come off as try hard or douchey somehow. Like I am not going to casually wear suits or dress clothes but is there anything else that can be done? What do you think?
Women are extremely insecure before listening to anything they say; you should always be aware that she is probably saying that because by looking good you are reminding her that she looks like a fat piece of shit.
>>18739820>I doubt women care the same about the arms of men compared to how much dudes care about the size of a womans titsWhich makes it especially gay, because you're wearing tight little revealing clothes for other men, not women. Most women find such overt exposure of male body a sign of narcissism, homosexuality, and douchebag behavior.
>>18740084>Most women find such overt exposure of male body a sign of narcissism, homosexuality, and douchebag behavior.HahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahhaHahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha hahahahahaYou believe what women say????? Like, in words?????? Hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahaahhaahh
I'm ottermode and wear t shirts that are tight around my arms but don't have a tight fit by design, like those tailored explicitly to show off your muscles like gym retards wear. I've been complimented on my arms by men and women (though mostly men).
>>18740123maybe he's asian, that's what asian women think of the western bodybuilder roided up look
Do you care about wearing stuff that's out of fashion, or go out of your way to avoid wearing stuff that's out of fashion?Imagine anything slim fit in 2026.Pic unrelated.
>>18739071Yeah. You could probably put me into the "wearing stuff thats out of fashion" category. I like things like Italian penny loafers, woven leather belts, tweed sportcoats, wool peacoats in the winter etc.Those have been around for decades and I just don't have the headspace to constantly worry about the next big thing normies are interested in.>>18739261Nice I was in highschool in the 90s. What are some examples that you wear from back then? I notice the younger generation is dressing kind of similar to the 90s these days.
>>18739071I never follow any trends so no and I don’t care if item x that I’m wearing suddenly is trendy and then falls out.
>>18739071I avoid it to a point.I might wear a slim fit shirt, but I won't wear slim fit pants.>>18739281>I wear stuff that's out of fashion, for example these things that are in fashion
>>18739071I don't really care what other people consider trendy. I'm more aiming toward looking good.
Post pics or advice for Indian ethnic wear for men.
>>18739412Your genetics repulse people no matter what Dress yourself up nicely, like wrapping a turd in Gucci
>>18739412Start with a basic Kurta-Pajama outfit to get into Indian traditional clothing. Get the Kurta in handloomed Khadi fabric, if you can, for that slubby texture.
>>18739437>>18739488geez.... tough crowd to please I guess.

Do you guys wear clothing that represents your homeland?
>>18738422>>18740280I couldn’t find this clothing brand after searching online though I am sure some anons would buy it.
>>18739600Gen Z just ages terribly, that's all.
>>18739611>I would love to join the Zionist settlers for Greater Israel, family, social life, but I am old now and antisocial schizoid.They don't care. They just need warm Israeli bodies to occupy the land so that they can claim it.

Im not saying heroin chic is going to make a come back, but the age of pretending fat people are normal is clearly over
>>18738071yeah i hate fat people
>>18740149Liraglutide generica are like 120€/month. Thats not exactly wealthy people territory. Swap one serving of slop for your daily dose, do some steady state cardio and in 12 months you do not look like a walruss.If you cannot afford that, I do not understand how you can afford the amount of calories required to become a land whale.
>>18740010>(because I hate myself)QED.
>>18738175Just eat a fucking salad instead of French fries and you'll lose weight, fatso
>>18740158what if you spend 120 less on food every month? it works like the weight loss pill, but you make money from it
