A while back I picked up a sheer Lang top from 1997. I was never really sure how I felt about the draping, so it didn't make it out of the house until yesterday.
EVERY SINGLE MALE from my parents' doctor in the produce section to the 16 year old cashier stopped me with a compliment.

I was in Degli Effetti some years back looking their stuff ,was like the only customer there when suddenly a tall middle age italian artist/designer (or something similar) dressed in carpe diem/ph came in very quickly and starting picking and trying some dozen of clothes in a couple of minutes.So imagine a guy (me) dressed like a common tourist in Rome ,interrupting the conversation between the assistant and this man ,asking him about a ccp jacket.The man went so crazy asking the assistant something like "who is that f..cazzo ..." in Italian .Then the assistant explain him about ccp and said something like that he was based in Perugia .Last edited by hurricane08; 01-12-2014, 01:53 PM.

my first post here, anyways, some random guy in my school called me a serial killer. I'm sure people talk more shit about me behind my back but I don't care. I'm not even wearing something avant garde. Just a full black outfit and I already turn heads. People here (slovenia) are so behind in fashion that it's not even funny. Shit is ridicolous...

I had a rather macabre compliment happen to me while on break today.
I work near a Coptic church, and while getting back from lunch there was a funeral procession starting. I was wearing a RO coat with a druid/pointy hood and a scarf wrapped around my neck and lower face(it's face shattering cold in Toronto atm).
Paying my respects I stopped in my tracks and waited for them to finish bringing the deceased into the church. Eventually an elderly African woman stopped near me and commented to herself "Father bless this child to heaven, and let death bother them no longer." Something along those lines. When she had finished, she turned towards me guessing to see if I had anything to say. The look on her face was mortifying. She went to grasp her chest, when I quickly pulled down my scarf to say something in response. She let out a sigh of relief and told me "If I didn't know any better, I thought that you were the grim reaper himself." I wanted to laugh, but it looked like she was still in shock.
I nodded and said; "Ma'am that is the greatest compliment I've ever gotten in my entire life." Then walked away grinning

I should come up with a better stock response for those kinds of questions.

Originally posted by Resonkuken View PostI just tell people the price is too obscene. They can judge themselves what "obscene" means to me. The times I´ve told people what I´ve spent, like a 200 euro sruli recht tee, I´ve regretted it. Specially in the city I´m from, people are just no ready for someone dropping that kind of money on clothing.Originally posted by u-ti View PostIf people ask me how much my stuff cost, I'll just be totally honest about it. I mean, if you think about all the money people spend on low quality stuff that go bad in half an year or the stuff they really dont care about and throw away after a season, I think buying quality stuff that i love and using it for ages is nothing to be uncomfortable of talking about.
