Fuckin’, if you’re big enough in the industry these days, you can pass anything off as fashion. Certain designers wouldn’t even have to try, and people would still lap their shit up. If Marc Jacobs started selling those clear tote bag things… With a little pocket in the front filled with dried-out dog shit, high fashion bitches would go crazy, he’d be hailed as a genius and he could charge $1,000 for that which we wipe off our shoes.
I see it on the internet even, with ‘fashion bloggers’. That Style Rookie girl, for a fifteen year old she’s incredible, and sometimes she looks INSANELY stylish - but sometimes she straight up looks like a nine year old potato sack, yet just because she’s Style Rookie, people hail even her off days as the height of nu-revolution fashion. Good on her, she’s going so far, but it just strikes me as a bit odd.
Even little old me, I once posted a tongue-in-cheek Polyvore set of boring jeans, a Black Flag shirt and Vans, saying I didn’t understand why people thought I had good style; I was BOMBARDED with messages telling me I was sooo super stylish, people bet I looked incredible even in jeans & sneakers… GUYS. COME ON. SOMETIMES I LOOK NICE, MOSTLY I LOOK LIKE I GET PAID TO WEAR RVCA AND VANS… Oh wait, I do.Seriously. Don’t believe the hype. Form your own opinions. If you think Alexander McQueen was a talentless quack (crosses self!) then by all means, stick with that view! If you think someone who’s popular for their aesthetic looks god-awful, stick with it!
To me, fashion is about forming your own opinions on what looks good and what’s downright boring, crude, piss-awful, etc. It’s what makes us all ~individual n’ shet.
