"/fa/ - Fashion" is 4chan's imageboard for images and discussion relating to fashion and apparel.
Vogue counter catalogs are really nice. They are monthly and a single book is 1000 pages and goes for 200 dollars or more online these days. It's not uncommon for books in good condition to go for 500 dollars! Do any of you know where these can be bought for cheap(er)? It's my dream to own a collection of all of them!
Finally do any of you guys who follow this stuff know if reprints are produced these days?
Please do not ruin this thread, please. I just want to talk about goth because I enjoy discussion of all things that present the beauty and elegance of everything dark.
I also enjoy discussion of Goth in particular because it is truly one of the most personalizable subcultures (although if it's as much as the past, is debatable), due to how much DIY stuff you can do with it. It really can define someone's style that much more.
I also think plastics in clothes give them a cheap vibe.
Unfortunately the opposite of cheap is expensive and so are most proper non plastic, organic clothes. At least those which aren’t vegan or otherwise progressive.
Facial hair is makeup for guys.

Also yes, I grew up in a rural area, but I mostly just wore High Vis and cargo work pants back then. Never thought about playing into the Rural background because Rural life is mostly boring as shit and you're surrounded by methheads.

>Wear sweatpants and hoodies with them but feel like scum.
Should I be the change my town needs
I've tried meermin before, but it turned out to be a huge waste of money as those pointy elegant styles are just not a good fit for my feet.
All the fucking recommendations seem to revolve around murrica, I need a brand ai can easily get in eu.
I might get rid of all or most of my hoodies. I've been thinking it's a common, low-effort piece of clothing.
everywhere says theyre out of stock
/funktional motocore/ is about riding a bike/trike/scooter and being cool about it.
/funktional/ means there's an element of purpose in the fits: something suggests a 'why' behind the ride, whether it's going to the store, carrying out a population survey of coastal amphibian species, or surviving the great drought.
/motocore/ means it's a step away from the 'standard' sources of motorcycle inspo: 50s American biker culture and 60s British rockers, which have built up their own set vocabulary of fashion that extends to the motorcycle itself as a statement piece.
Instead, /motocore/ cribs inspiration from areas like contemporary South/SE Asia, or anywhere where the motorcycle (invariably a cheap, small one) is still an agile, cheap mode of transport used for daily tasks -- just as it was in the UK when biker culture was being codified.
Not that this is more 'authentic' than the 'standard' sources; we're just tapping into a fresher vein to create a newer, less played-out vocabulary of fashion where smaller, cheaper motorcycles become statement pieces.
copied from older thread in the archive
I currently wear a white t-shirt since I usually wear a tie so it's not as big of a deal since it doesn't crowd the neckline, but I'm not sure what to do in a more casual situation. V necks don't always line up with the collar. I get the point that an undershirt looks awkward since you see where it breaks, but showing off my nipples and chest hair doesn't feel very formal.
i'v been shaving my head for couple years now
i gor fit, grew a beard, take care of my skin and how i dress.
still, the toll is considerable
i went from a solid 7-8/10 to a 5 in a good day
