Not for everyone but extroverts and avant-garde hyper-creatives in their 20s and 30s, slim at up to 60kg.

[–] But_my_mom_says_im_cool@lemmy.world 1 points 29 minutes ago

That coat is probably like $600

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

They only sell those in child size 😮‍💨

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 hours ago

three reasons No sponsorship from Benneton

and most imprtantly

80% of my clothes are soruced by my parter from the local Op Shop and we live in a religious conservative area (am a left wing aethiest), so no donations to buy there.

also, i tend to dress in some colourful clothes rather then drab grey and black but I'd feel odd cosplaying as a licorice allsort

I’m not super into the “learn to dress” doll aesthetic, tbh :p

[–] czer0_@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 hours ago

Common sense.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 3 points 4 hours ago

I don't desire to look like a child ate a whole pack of crayon and then threw up on me?

I'm a 50 year old man with functioning retinas...

[–] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 7 hours ago

hey, look! the 80's 2.0 are here! nice

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 7 hours ago

I love pockets. If I had that coat I will wear it.

[–] Shanmugha@lemmy.world 5 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Me being a man. So clothes shops go "you will wear grey, maybe black, some blue and fugly green. Go on, chop-chop"

[–] Madzielle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago) (1 children)

being a woman, I only like these colors lmao

[–] Shanmugha@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

What can I say, one's hell is someone else's heaven :)

[–] FlyingCrow@lemmy.world 0 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

It's such a struggle to find a variety of colourful clothes for guys :(

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Not at all. Just don't shop at generic stores.

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago

I think it looks cool, but I don't wear logos.

Budget and skill. In reality a bona fide attempt from me would probably end up more like this:

What is going on at the crotch here? It looks like she has a designer codpiece. Love the hair color/lipstick combo.

[–] eletes@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 hours ago

Looks like a cross body bag over a zip hoodie

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 3 points 11 hours ago

I don't want to dress like a Kindergartner.

[–] Rooskie91@discuss.online 1 points 9 hours ago

That outfit somehow looks both expensive as hell and cheap as hell.

[–] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 3 points 12 hours ago

I don't need enough pockets to subject myself to that.

Fun fact: these are a limited edition, and every color combination is unique

And there are websites who track them:

[–] mx_smith@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago (3 children)

So when you register this car what color do you put down that it is?

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 hours ago
[–] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

Oh, I get to share a bit of my useless knowledge! The rear quarter panel and roof is the original body color and how it would be recorded. In this example, that's a yellow Harlequin.

[–] xavier_berthiaume@jlai.lu 7 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

I genuinely find the look of this endearing

Yeah unfortunately I had to leave the period between 1986-1994 but let me tell you, it was fucking awesome

[–] Calfpupa@lemmy.ml 6 points 16 hours ago

You not linking where to get stuff like this

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

Looks like a Ross store exploded in 1988.

And the only thing keeping me from dressing like that is that I do not own any of those articles of clothing.

[–] notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip 1 points 11 hours ago
[–] Widdershins@lemmy.world 7 points 18 hours ago

I can't afford to own that many clothes. That fanny pack alone could buy me a thousand pairs of socks at the dollar tree. Probably a few dollar trees. I would be surprised if one store alone had enough socks stocked. I could change my socks 3 times a day for a year or once a day for 3 years and never have to wash any socks.

[–] llamatron@lemmy.world 8 points 19 hours ago

Good taste?

[–] darkdemize@sh.itjust.works 57 points 1 day ago

Self respect.

[–] Bloomcole@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

taste and dignity

[–] EtnaAtsume@lemmy.world 13 points 22 hours ago

The fact that I don't want to

[–] infinitevalence@discuss.online 47 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm a middle aged white dude with some serious dad bod. That's what

I don’t have the ridiculously oversized sword to complete the ensemble.
