Fashion?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Apart from being a monstrous marketing con is it really just about getting a shag?

[Niamh.]

what????????

[Enid]

No. It's about confidence and identity I think.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Ultimately you are trying to get people to like you or shag you.

Its like the bollox you hear from boob jobbers "confidence" = "i want people to like me and shag me"

I'm married so I'm not looking for someone(except my hubby) to shag me lol, wouldn't say I'm overly fashion conscience though either so I don't know!!

[Stu]

It's all about identity.

*awaits negative comments telling me your still following something, if that's the case everybody is following something*

The only thing I find hilarious are these high end fashionista sorts who's life it is to basically exist in 'fashion' and to look 'fashionable', but to anyone and there gran outside a fashion show, on the streets, they look like a joke.

[Enid]

I'm pretty reserved when it comes to fashion. I don't wear short skirts or low cut tops. I want to look good, sure. If people like what I wear, awesome. But I don't dress for other people, I do it for me.

[InOne]

I wear jeans and a hoodie, that is about as fashionable as I get lol

Is not the reduction in interest in fashion with age not a reaction to a lesser need to need affirmation and sexual contact/find a partner?

That's what it all boils down to. I dress in ways that make me feel good. Evident by the fact that these days if you walk around a town with anything but a cheap tracksuit and an MC Smokemycock ringtone, you will get laughed at by at least seven people on the way home.

If I was dressing to please other people, I would just don a pair of Nike's and a baseball hat.

[MrGaryy]

Fashion is everything. It's about expressing yourself and helping others identify you as a person, the sort of person you are and want to be. It's about feeling good about yourself, about walking outside confidently. It's about knowing you're presenting yourself as you are. It's everything.

[Niamh.]

lol, thats what I'm wearing right now

Birthday suit works a treat for me in situations like that.

do you not think that if you upped your fashion you could enhance your shag potential?

[Enid]

I'm in my PJs. Rock and ****ing roll!

[InOne]

do you not think that if you upped your fashion you could enhance your shag potential?

I'm not really bothered lol

[Enid]

If I wanted a shag, I'd bleach my hair, wear a short denim skirt and a tight tank top. But that isn't me. I hate denim. :P

There are so many fashion faux pas to be made, but for me, dressing to suit other people is the biggest fashion crime of all. I remember when skinny jeans for guys had just came out and I was the only one who had them and I would get so many funny looks and sniggers but I never once decided to conform because I liked what I was wearing and that's what is ultimately what matters.

[MissKittyFantastico]

I just wear what I want. Have never been one to follow what's on trend or anything like that.

Sure I want to look nice, but ultimately if I feel good then I'm happy! I'd look totally ridiculous in a lot of the stuff that's supposedly 'in fashion' anyway tbh!

me too, I wear very casual clothes most of the time, jeans pretty much everyday!

[Twilight]

I wear what i want.
So what if other people don't like it

[WOMBAI]

I absolutely hate to say it - but - I do believe that most young women dress mainly for men. It is about self-confidence - but the ultimate aim is about looking good and attracting male attention. Those that fuss about clothes, hair, make-up etc are man-hunting. I defy any fashion conscious woman to deny it - I say they are telling a porky! Many will attempt to deny it and come up with many other reasons - but, in reality, they want to be fancied!

It is different for guys - they attempt to attract female attention by other means ie. fast cars, peacock displays of muscle etc. All amounts to pretty much the same thing though!

[MissKittyFantastico]

me too, I wear very casual clothes most of the time, jeans pretty much everyday!

Me too hun, I'm a jeans, tshirt and hoody type of girl. If people want to judge me for it they can feck right off lol! I rarely wear skirts or dresses, if that makes me unshaggable then so be it lol! But I've not done so badly on that score so far so yeah :joker:

[Enid]

Fashion is all bullshit really. I don't follow a particular trend. I don't shop at one certain place. I'd buy anything if I liked it and then I tend to mix and match my clothes. I find some pretty.. uhh.. interesting outfits that way.

[Princess]

If I look good I feel better about myself. It is about identidy as well,hugely. I love to 'follow fashion' but I'm not an absolute sheep,certain fashions suit me and other's are hideous,I buy what I like.

lol, yeah me too, I was wearing jeans when I met my hubby so I can't have looked that bad haha!

[Tom]

Its important but anyone who shops at Topman and honestly believe they look good deserves to be shot. Awful shop

I got a lovely pair of slacks from Topman ages ago. Thought I looked the f£cking business in them.

[MissKittyFantastico]

Sexiness comes from within anyway I always say! And girls who wear skirts up to their arses and low cuts tops just look like they're trying too hard a lot of the time. Can look just as hot in nice jeans and top imo if you've got natural sex appeal!

You mean you don't like neon pink T-Shirts with hilarious pictures of monkeys on them? For shame!

Even the kids who try to be different end up becoming part of a trend. Like the emo look is a fashion isn't it? And that stuff is pretty expensive

[Stu]

Hey, scene kid, you have eight different colours in your hair that correspond to the colours of the laces in your shoes? And it took you twenty minuets to get into your pants? And you like to take MySpace photos of yourself from artsy looking angles!

Wow, your such an interesting person!

[Actually the photo InOne posted is pretty tame. And sexy].

[Twilight]

What scene fashion? I'm really clueless about this!!

Really bright clothes,skinny jeans,Teased hair etc

[Enid]

My sister is into the scene thing. It's hilarious that she needs to spent about an hour doing her hair every day. I don't even ****ing brush mine!

Always makes me smile - they think they are being so different - when in reality they are just conforming to another, equally predictable look ie punks.

I resent what you just said. Punk is a lifestyle or ethic.

Okay I'll shut up about it now. Don't wanna get into this argument.

[Crimson Dynamo]

I wear what i want.
So what if other people don't like it

you wear what the shops/fashion dictates

[Enid]

How can you tell when his hair is covering half his face?

[Twilight]

Nope?

But it makes many feel better


I like Un Labled fashions.

[Crimson Dynamo]

do you recall the scene in that Prada Devil film where the main lead gets pwned by Meryl Streep for saying that she wore what she wanted and not fashion...

[Enid]

Nope?
You know, all the boys you list as "hot" do exactly that and I wouldn't be surprised if you do too.

Do you shop at George at Asda-Walmart?

Punks had real values though. They couldn't really help it that the movement got big. In that case what you are wearing right now is bound to be a copy of what someone else is wearing. If you know anything about the original Punk movement you know it wasn't fashion driven. If anything it was anti fashion. And those crazy bastards just went ahead and made their own clothes. Punk's have values.

Emo's are a completely different story. Young kids who follow a fashion trend they will one day grow out of with no meaning whatsoever other than to dress a certain way and listen to abhorrent music.

I know plenty of adult punks. How many forty year old emo's have you seen?

I'll admit I used to dress like the Gallagher brothers, cool and casual. But they dressed like The Beatles, The Stone Roses and Johnny Marr, so it all stems from somewhere.

To be honest that's not so much of a fashion trend. It's only natural to be influenced by your favorite bands. That's not really a trend because you have a genuine passion for the group.

And that's my defense for wearing eyeliner and leather pants.

eh?

Doesn't matter where it stems from, if it's the in thing, kids will buy it. I pity anyone that would be willing to spent £30 on a shitty little t-shirt.

[Stu]

Yeah. Believe it or not their is not an electronic tag on makeup that makes it turn into sulfuric acid when it detects a set of balls on the wearer.

the problem is perhaps that we are judged a lot by our clothes

Yeah ridiculous prices sometimes. I hate the people who buy because it costs that much though, if you get what I mean.

[Enid]

Oh of course. What we wear mirrors our personality. If someone looks like they haven't made an effort to look half decent, in otherwords, a slob, it probably means they're a lazy good for nothing.

[Stu]

Apart from formal stuff for concerts like the aforementioned leather, everything I buy is usually from street markets. Just seven euro T-Shirt jobbies and cargo pants or ripped jeans.

The cargo pants go particularly well with the 'Junglist Movement' T-Shirt I have.

[Fom]

I am rubbish at fashion haha, because of my career I tend to just wear trackies or stretch clothing as it is easier to move around in. If I am not working I tend to just throw jeans and a shirt on or whatever.

I hate skirts,although mainly cos I can never find anything to go with them. I adore dresses though,especially in the summer.

do you recall the scene in that Prada Devil film where the main lead gets pwned by Meryl Streep for saying that she wore what she wanted and not fashion...

Well it's true! Everything is based around fashion,I don't like people who make a point of not wearing what's in fashion. Everyone should just wear what they want.

Also I've never heard of this 'scene' thing,I wear skinnies and bright colors all the time. Although I don't even brush my hair,lol! Conditioner gets the knots out :laugh:

I like cardigans, boots, I have a tweed hobo coat that's great. I like the hobo look, or casual jeans and a cardi/T-shirt. I have an awesome green and black stripy cardigan. I hate anything that's too popular. I don't like anything with a logo. I hate anything that looks like it's trying to hard - desperate isn't sexy or cool.
