    you do not look at all comfortable in this IMO.
    I disagree. I don't think it's fair to compare Dannyagency to Christian just because he happen to have the same kind of boots. Somehow this forum seem really small if two members can't wear the same things? I don't know, it seems like an unfair comparison.

    I somehow agree with your last sentiment, but who are we to decide? I don't think you can judge that just from a couple of photos.

    I think it's a great outfit, almost too great, I mean there is too much good stuff, I would suggest you to select the garments you want to emphasize and match them with more discrete stuff.

    It's overkill, but each piece is wonderful.

        I will admit they look a lot better with pants covering them.

        For the record the outfit is
        -RO sweater
        -RO shirt
        -Kiryuyrik cargo pants (generally bad mid-tier japanese brand, by 2 rogue yohji employees)
        -Goth Bovine Ninja Deluxe

          I gotta agree with merkuri, this outfit does not suit him at all. It's not that 2 members can't wear the same thing, it's that one not only pulls off the look, but makes the clothes his own. Christian's outfits almost always reflect something about who he is. On the other hand, dannyagency's outfit looks contrived. It doesn't suit him at all. Each piece may be 'wonderful' but clothes need to not only suit your body type, but they should reflect something about who you are, they should suit/reflect your personality/lifestyle. I know I can't say anything about who Christian and dannyagency are in real life, but one looks completely natural in their clothes, the other doesn't.

                I don't mean to be harsh. But some people on here, when they post outfits, I feel like I learn something about who they are and how they live. To be able to express yourself through garments like that is amazing, that you can feel like you know someone because of their style and outfits.

                    My opinion is that he is a new member posting his first pictures and he was criticized for not owning his look or for somehow not being authentic. Furthermore, by being compared to a very well liked long term member here, it made it seem as if he was being accused of copying someone's look. Perhaps the setting was admittedly anonymous, but the impression from the comments is that he is a poseur and not welcome here. Even his hair was criticized for not conforming to some strict and unwritten rules of presentation. That to me is harsh.

                      ^ these are opinions. there are no so-called unwritten rules. i don't even have any fucking hair to straighten or perm. go outside and grab some fresh air and a beer.

                        I think Dannyagency is trying. But like germans trying to make rock music, it just doesn't come out right.

                            Castor, when you post photos of yourself on a forum you have to expect people to give their opinion. I wasn't trying to be harsh. Given dannyagency's lack of posts in other areas of the forum, he obviously joined wanting people to see his outfit. I gave my honest opinion, it wasn't intended to be malicious

                              Fixed.


                              With some notes:
                              1. Never name yourself beauty anything.
                              2. Serious face only when taking WAYWT. Smiles/smirks/grins are not permitted here.
                              3. Cut hair. Or grow it longer for full Christian effect.

                              Just kidding, of course!

                                it's odd how often this aspect is ignored...in my opinion, it was a pretty measured, bordering on euphemistic, response.

                                nice fit st. fuuma, apart from shoes, which don't work with the rest imho. shape is too "harsh", when everything else has a softness, and in a good way, "ordinary-ness"
