Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

As much as I want this to do some good for NYC and Men's Fashion in general, I feel like my feed and local news outlets are overcompensating and over exaggerating it to be this massive spectacle with the hashtags a 14 year old suburban white girl would use. #killingit #crushingit #balling #blessed #goals?"I would use lard if it came in a pretty bottle."

gq in general is something i avoid.
most fashion week "outfits" tend to be no more than shitty costumes.
this may have been posted, but with some of the lunacy of fw, i think it's worth revisiting:

Flipping through NYFW photos on various sites, I can't believe I'm both obsessed with fashion and yet hate so much of it so much. How is it that all the people and outfits in all the pictures look so ostentatious and gaudy? And god, to think that I probably come off as some goth punky variant of those people, maybe this is a sign that I should exercise a little restraint.

I can't say that I really get anything out of hating on it, either; it's not intentional in the least. It's just that I see it and my gut reaction is "ew." I know I'm no better than them, maybe even worse off as many of them look polished to a pro level and they're very successful at what they do, but I can't deny the way the photos make me feel instinctively. Maybe like, "damn, so this is what people find appealing, how alienating."
I'm with you on the vintage CdG, though. There's some outrageously good unique stuff out there. I've been trying to convince myself that I would have enough legit occasions to wear a CdG pleated skirt or skort but not so many that I'd have to stress about having it cleaned.

Wise words above.
But there is something to get out of hating if you put enough philosophical distance from the subject. It can be a lot of fun and entertaining, in the Oscar Wilde way.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Anger porn is a great word for this thread, haha. I've found that anger is definitely the most difficult emotion to contain. Emotions are very easy for me to conceal, but anger into rage is something else. I still enjoy anger on some level, it's a very selfish emotion and feels righteous. It has a way of making nothing else matter and even helps me focus on doing something productive if I stay in control of it. It's easier to get things done when the rest of the world is shut out.
Of course, there are downsides, and losing control of it is never good. As for whether I'm ever joking, the common thread among my close friends seems to be that they never take anything I say or do too seriously, no matter how serious I might be.

CR Fashion Book is a joke. There is not a single word in it. It's a bad copy of Self Service, which itself has become total shit.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

I'm not sure what a "curator of cool" is supposed to be but I sense that it is deeply uncool.Selling CCP, Harnden, Raf, Rick etc.
