Imagine calling yourself a fashion designer, and your only design philosophy is to absolutely pack every article of clothing you make with gaudy colors and tacky sequins and rhinestones. Sparkley doesn't automatically make anything look good.
Well you say that but Equestria seems to disagree. At the end of the day fashion is a subjective thing, if ponies love sparkly shiny then there's nothing you can do about that!
>>43177360But enough about Ms. Polomare.
>>43177360Sure, but I’d imagine that there would be a clientele who’s into 70’s and 80’s funk music videos (or possibly music videos from that time in general). Or perhaps the events of the MLP series are set during that time period.
>>43177368If all your friends were named Cliff, would you jump off of them?Just because Rarity convinced her customers that dressing like Elton John was high fashion, doesn't make it tasteful or look good.>>43177386So Sapphire Shores and Bootsey Collins get a pass but outside of show business I can't see any pony wearing suck flashy rags unironically.
>>43177360>. Sparkley doesn't automatically make anything look good.The show exists only to sell sparkly plastic crap to little girls. It is literally a 22-minute toy commercial.
>>43177418>If all your friends were named Cliff, would you jump off of them?>Just because Rarity convinced her customers that dressing like Elton John was high fashion, doesn't make it tasteful or look good.I'm not saying I personally love her designs but she's clearly got a finger on the pulse... or uh. I dunno if ponies can do that. A frog on the pulse? of Equestrian fashion.
>>43177464I want Rarity to step on my throat
>>43177475I don't think she'd do that.
>>43177447This.
>>43177447Fine, wanna go down that road? We'll go down that road!Why didn't the show runners or toy designer create more tasteful clothes for their fashion horse? Why did the toy designers and show runners have such shitty taste, that they thought gaudy colors and tacky sequins and rhinestones was a good idea?It literally only works for musicians and even that is a stretch.
>>43177360OP buys his suits OFF-THE-RACK.
>>43177536>gaudy colors and tacky sequins and rhinestonesHave you ever spent time around actual little girls?Besides that week you spent on Epstein Island.Colorful, gaudy, sparkly is exactly what they like. Yes...it looks stupid and that's why their parents pick out clothes for them.But toys? Go full tacky, that's what the audience wants.
>>43177360>>43177386It may actually make some degree of sense for MLP to be set during the early 1980’s, since they had access to video arcades, but some homes still had wood-burning stoves and people got their news from newspapers rather than social media, with Discord being the only one with access to cell phones. Those sequins may still have been all the rage during the time MLP G4 was set if their technology was an indication.
>>43177597Nonny, people in the 80s were just starting to get cable TV. FiM cannot be directly linked to any given era because it actively chooses to not represent several things that were and are mainstays of our world, like automobiles and television.
>>43177597Mr. Nonymous sequins and rhinestones were tacky even in the 80s. Loud close might have been "in style" but it was mostly seen as trashy or eccentric.>>43177601They have TV in Equestria, most ponies just can't afford it.
>I don't like it therefore it's badYeah well I like therefore it's based
>>43177624Why don't you put your money where your mouth is and wear some Rarity™ brand clothing? If you think her desires are so based then you shouldn't be embarrassed to wear some!
>>43177628Because I’m a dude. Don’t luxury stores like Rarity’s only cater to one gender/sex? Do we see Men’s Wearhouse or Joseph A. Bank selling dresses, for example? I could possibly imagine getting a blazer off the rack, but is it like I could get a custom-fitted suit?
>>43177662Fair enough, force your wife to wear a Rarity© brand dress and show us if you like Rarity's clothing so much.
>>43177360
>>43177662That was my (You) asshole you responded on my behalf fuck you.>>43177628Anyways I can't wear flashy flamboyant biseinen clothes in a Rarity™ style because hers are made with actual gemstones I don't have that kind of dough. But if I could afford it I would.>inb4 whyBecause I'm a grown man talking about a show for little girls so it should be obvious I'm a manchild who would enjoy over designed things you would consider tacky. Yes I'm aware people would hate me before even talking to me but well I'm not very fond of people either so it'd be fine.
>>43177624>>43178402Shameless Anon, just become a male model. You don't need a personality and you can get paid to wear Rarity™ brand clothing and show up everyone in this thread.
>>43177360We all know it's you Sea Swirl. Stay mad that you can't afford a nice dress.
>>43177360Ponies love sparkly things
>>43177360Well, do you consider human fashion designers "fashion designers" after seeing most of the stuff that they make? It is supposed to be outrageous and flashy. Rarity is doing the pony version of that.
