I love fashion for the ability to construct my first impression through editing and carefully curating what message I want to send. The challenge of taking what inspires you and working within the confines of what you have. The constant inspiration from others when you feel flat. It really to me is the unspoken language of our emotions. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and when you walk out of the house in the right fit, you are an animated piece of artwork. P.S. Thank. you for your channel! You've been inspring me to go for the pieces I want and just stop collecting basics that I find for a good deal! You both have exceptional taste in how you style avant-garde. 🖤
Thank You so so much! What a strong answer you have there. The great thing is there will always be an abundance of inspiration, the challenge is perhaps when or where to look and feel. 🙏🙏thank you
I like how shopping in fashion in a way is similar to dating: it's not always easy to find the one you want and need, but once you find it, it's an unbeatable feeling lol
My favourite thing about fashion besides the physical and technical craft, is the ability of it to turn fantasy into a tangible reality. I gravitate towards designers that create their own world, narrative and language that seductively pulls you in and makes you never want to leave. Great video Karl xx
Once again, a wonderful video Karl. I really love how you do this without any trace of elitism or pretense. Yes, you can show us crazy Rick Owens fits, but you can also admit that a lot of guys will just end up wearing 501s. Your videos remind me of some of the things that I love best about fashion. Namely, how it points out how nearly everything that we consider part of our fixed and stable identity is socially constructed. There are whole swaths of menswear discussions that seem to locate one’s solid identity as a cis male in how well the shoulders of your jacket fit, or how the crease of your pant leg breaks at your shoe. And then there is the avant-garde realm, where aesthetic conventions such as proportion get turned on their head, social conventions such as gender are completely subverted or ignored, and perhaps even the laws of physics such as gravity can be transcended. This is the best part of fashion: that one can experience the world anew as a space alien, free from the social constructs that we have grown up in. At least for an an afternoon.
What I love about fashion is how it helps me find the right balance between being open and enigmatic. Without having to open my mouth and saying a single word, I am able to show something about myself to everyone else whilst also being able to maintain that safe and somewhat passive-aggresive diatance between me and them.
I agree. The fact that you wear an outfit. It’s a service to yourself and to others. Of transmitting a subliminal message whatever your outfit expresses. It’s kinda like a safe force field. I totally get you ❤
For me, on the most part it’s the enjoyment of collecting and learning, having my own little bubble of things I save up for and love and look after, on top of connecting / understanding the messaging behind a particular season for example. Other times it’s just goofy and fun. Thanks for the 04:20 inclusion and another quality video! 😊
I do that too and can totally relate! Collecting is fun as long as they are what you 100% genuinely love. It happens to be RO clothes for us. Thank you for contributing as well!
What in my opinion is the most fasinating about fashion in general is the fact, that even when people don’t give much attention to the outlook they send a message with their image. Fashion community can be very close and focus on trends and nubers, but nowdays things swithed up and You can find a lot of content creator/fashion enthusiasts that build community around their intrest. I’m thrift addict since forever and the hunting rush and the individuality of the pieces is unmatched with anything. You don’t have to spend big money to create tour own style/image, all You need is some imagination and intuition. I feel that the way Rick himself talk about his early days in the industry give us a full picture of potential that fashion scene have.
thrifting was what made me connect with fashion with so much clarity. Through thrifting I was able to access fashion and create a world around it. I am glad you find joy in it as well! ❤
what i love about fashion is how its one way you can subscribe to codes of designers you align with both aesthetically and philosophically it also makes me feel so confident when i can choose which parts of myself i can emphasize physically through textures, colors, proportions, etc.
What i love about fashion is that it allows one to express their true selves. There is no right or wrong in fashion. You can dress however you like and feel comfortable, creative, special or normal. As it is something you wear, it actually becomes part of you, not only your identity but as an actual physical organ so to say. Simply said, i like how i can one day dress conform to the “norm” or as extravagant as possible the other day. Really glad i found your channel! You are such an inspiration to me!
Thank youuu! I am glad I was able to reach you thru! I love what you said about being extravagant one day and mundane the next. I experience that as pendulum-like mood. What’s important is we continue to express our truth❤
What I love about fashion is being able to express myself beyond all limits, to me every single aspect of it is an art form (Deisgning, styling, sewing, pattern making, ect...). I don't always wake up and "put that shit on", but when I do I immediately feel like the best version of myself, i feel comfortable in my own skin and all need of approval from a second party vanishes. My goal is to reach the point where I live every single day like this and move on completely from things like social pressure, insecurities, and all the negative aspects that have characterised my teens (still in 'em but only got one more year to go).
wearing something that you love can be healing and can alter the turn of events. It is so true and I have experienced that! Society can definitely be a strong hurdle so we can only try to resist it and move forward ❤
Not an easy answer. Fashion allows me to show my creative side on the outside. Pairing new with old, rick with gucci, etc etc. That freedom and expression is just one of the many virtures of fashion. Love your channel Love Rick! XOXO
I love being able to play with my silhouette in fashion. There's a lot of Rick and Yohji pieces that I use but the pods are my main thing to lengthen my wide torso
My favorite thing about fashion is how it allows us to express our unique style and personality. Whether it's dressing up for a special occasion or just putting together a casual outfit, fashion gives us the opportunity to be creative and showcase our individuality. Plus, it's always fun to experiment with different styles and discover new looks!
I love that! Plus it can be fun even if youre on your own. During Christmas I was alone in the house and before i know it, I was trying on clothes and vlogging! So it’s a nice solitary experience ❤
Being relatively new to fashion I initially came in just to dress better, but after coming in contact with the avant garde genre it's spoken to me in a way very few things in life do for me, in some ways it's a performance art as it makes me and others question gender norms in relation to fashion whenever I wear those pieces and I just have realised in general how much my quality of life has improved along with embracing fashion, it's an armour for me as well as showing my more playful and creative side to others without having to use my words.
julius cargos are really great for when you want to throw on a basic band tee but also want to elevate the outfit. because of how they are bulkier at the waist with the pockets they create a great form especially if you blouse them in to boots.
great choices in basics, couldn't agree more if you're stepping into high fashion and still want those basics with a slight twist i think i've accumulated rick basics like those two black tees you got from matches, which are luxurious (i have 4 now haha) and almost everything else mentioned... i like to play the iykyk type when it comes to wearing rick
Thank you for watching ❤️ It’s so fun to see build basics that still make your wardrobe fun right? still a blessing that online stores make great markdowns on those basic essentials during sale season bec i could never pay full price on those haha
You rock my Rick Owens! No need to fret; I see it as passing on, giving these pieces the home they truly deserve. I've got numerous variations, and I knew you'd appreciate them. What some label as basic is, for me, often deemed fancy and otherworldly. Rick Owens shouldn't be seen casually; it's deeply rooted in quality materials and original design, carrying a profound philosophy. I make sure I don’t look only dressed but I’m telling a story . That’s what design in its core represents. If we look at true Avantgarde and the early punk movement its always narrative not just a fashion brand
I could not turn this video off. Being menswear I felt it did not apply to me, and my efforts may best be used elsewhere; but the way you deconstruct and analyze personal style is just so captivating.
My favorite aspect of Fashion is its incredible tangibility within the arts. It’s visual and you can add prints and designs like a painting or illustration, you can feel it and see it in many perspectives like a sculpture. You can see it’s beauty in movement like film, and like a video game, it is one of the most interactive and playful arts as you choose how to style pieces together from many artists creating something likely never thought of before. Add cologne or perfume to add to the story of your style. Heck, sometimes you can even hear it with some fabrics. The only thing is you can’t taste it… unless… 👀
I love clothes, but I don't follow treads. I like to create my own outfits. I like platform shoes and patent leather. I love suit jackets with pinstripes. I love neck ties with diagonal stripes. I also like hat styles from the early 20th century. Most men in the United States wear ball caps, but I'd rather look different.
Thank you sm! The people are truly the inspiration. I actually feel happy how this turned out. If only i can like gather all this people and do face to face interviews. anywy yeah the last time i spoke to cliffsix probs was last year and he was planning to do a video about kiss heels or heels for men. so missing his video and his creativity. 😢
Being a socially awkward person, fashion is like a getaway for me to my own world. I could be the most timid and discreet but my outfit could be the loudest. It’s a gateway to opportunities (could spark a convo) just because you like the same brand/style/etc. That’s what I like about it
SAME!!!! I dont talk. I go to cafe and sit on the farthest corner. But when I pick my clothes, it’s always the severe and weird. I feel like Im possessed when I dressed up. ❤
For me, fashion is a way to display a part of who you are, but for yourself not for other people. Both as a designer and as a consumer. Although, as a designer you can express yourself as you truly are, whereas as a consumer one must go on a hunt to find those artists who have similarity to your modality and sense of being. Or you can just wear stuff that feels comfy, idk 🤷♂
love love love. Seriously love your hair and makeup. so dewy and natural. I must say that I have definitely have started slowly collecting key RO pieces, the pods are my favs. a pair of Creatch pods, an oversized see thru shirt, kiss boots, some dick flap tanks, a long sleeve T ( the thin ones) … a Lido long jacket, it’s just classic goes with everything and can wear they all work well with my outfits year around and layering them when it starts getting cold. Oh yes and a few pairs of the jump suits/flight suits they are a must! … oh also I mix in some of my Dries stuff with my RO stuff, especially the huge oversized wide trousers. LOVE THEMM. I also love my ALYX, black super chunky chelsea’s that are the convertible ones ( can pop off the vibram chunk bottoms if I wanna dress it up ).
Hello! Thank you for noticing the hairmakeup game haha My goal is to get a jumpsuit however I am too short! I did a diy version of it using my crop bomber+ bauhaus vest + bauhaus pants and it mimicked the flight suit look! Well done for mixing Dries! 🖤🖤🖤
