Stranger's Reactions to your Clothes?

cause you are...

[DudleyGray]

It might depend on the cut? Like pods vs swingers.

Nappy sounds positively disgusting. Diaper sounds still clean, a nappy sounds already all shit up.

[fncyths]

like a blow out? cause that just sounds horrifying...

Look, I try to avoid the old anti-American language chauvinism, even if I prefer -ise to -ize and spell focussed, well, as you see.

But I can only see that word so many times before my soul cries out "nappy", and I start to rage against the ugliness of "sidewalk", etc., like a serious Anglophile. (And I know "diaper" has the earlier provenance, I just can't help myself). It just sounds so ugly to pronounce.

On topic: isn't it only drop sweats that look like nappies? More structured cuts and more stiff fabrics don't look that way. Julius dropped cargos/PH dropped jeans are seriously un-nappy-like.

haha sorry I am not a native speaker, although nappy sounds bad imo

I 've seen some structured cuts that look like shit (not the ones you mention). The body frame wearing a drop crotch is equally important for me, it tends to swallow the legs on shorter guys, etc.

for instance, LUC

One of the Doctors I work with mentioned that I looked, "like Dracula" in a Julius long cardigan but did say that he thought it was very 'fashion forward'..whatever that means.

"You look like a vampire"

Wearing CCP dead end long blazer & trouser & LUC turtle neck.

I think it sounds like a cute form of "nap".

Re: Dropcrotch cut: I think it´s the thin sweat material from the S/S seasons, especially with the prisoner pants in dust. Waxed cotton, thick sweat, wool blend and leather renditions look fine imho.

I wore a rather translucent white Rick tee to work the other day and had to withstand a series of jokes about my visible nipples.
There´s also the constant comparison between my Geos (all-black, milk sole) and snowboard boots and, of course, my pod shorts seem to look like a skirt to some.

Is vampire a good compliment to you? I think I wouldn´t mind being called a vampire, as long as it was in reference to the cool ones, not a Twilight dude xp.

Berlin

While in Berlin with my girlfriend, i really got confused by people's reactions. Of course we both wore a bunch of black clothes, but no dramatic silhouettes (no drop crotch, no super long tees). But people were staring in a way ive never seen before. I don't know if it's the "issue" but my girlfriend has very skinny legs and sometimes people start talking about them as they are walking begins her . In Berlin, people would stare intensely though and one even poked her sister they could both point at us very indiscreetly we usually just ignore these people, but it actually started making us feel a little uncomfortable.

Anybody else tried something like that in Berlin?

I guess that would be a compliment if you're into that sort of things i guess

I genuinely hope that they didn't think that i look like Twilight vampires. I have not seen or read anything from that franchise myself so i don't really have an opinion of it. But guessing by everyone in my friends circle dissing it i would presume that it's bad.
