Stranger's Reactions to your Clothes?

[Faust]

Did you oblige?

Foul guy, hahahaha!

Tried to pee in his mouth – by the time I had pulled down my undies, leggings and shorts he was gone. Bummer.

I was visiting my friend, and we were on the rooftop of some club. I wore an oversized beanie, jumbo tee, waxed Detroits, and tall Vicious combats. I went off to smoke while my friend talked to some old coworkers, when a dickhead approached me.

"Can I ask you a question? Why are you wearing a do-rag?"

I told him it wasn't a do-rag, that it was a beanie. He looked behind my head and examined it.

"Oh, my bad, yeah it is a beanie. We whites gotta stick together, you know?"

He held out his hand. I looked at it and told him that I wasn't white.

"Oh, then what are you?"

We locked eyes, and I finished my cigarette in silence.

It's almost like the reaction one gets when walking a dog and strangers react to the dog while ignoring you completely, except much more bizarre because I am wearing the damn thing.

Haha, blistered lamb and mohair/silk are like enchanted fabrics that reveal who lacks boundaries.

I know, I have to quit smoking!

Was wearing ccp highneck coat and was told that I look like a "modern day vampire". Another time, heard a random person saying "Someone is dressing a bit too early for Halloween."

These have become the standard, expected, boring reactions to this style. Let's hear something more interesting!

[deadboy]

We should start saying that to our hecklers.

That's a GREAT idea, lol!!!

Finally the weather has been great for breaking out my Noir by Kei Ninomiya duffle coat, and the reaction has been very positive. Got a free coffee at my girlfriend's neighborhood coffee shop. The girl there keeps complimenting my outerwear, haha. An hour later was buying some groceries and the counter girl was also smitten. She actually walked from behind the counter to stare at the coat, and then called another guy.

This is the coat - I'll take a WAYWT soon (I know I've been slacking in that dept)

This coat is stunning! So beautiful!



Talk about people's reaction to my style, every time I wear my RO pod shorts or any drop crotch pants, he asks me if I have shited in my pants.������

[eleves]

@richard_cao That's another common reaction to drop crotch! I'm at the point though where almost every pair of pants that I own is drop crotch with the exception of a few YY pieces and some more "formal" things

@faust Definitely a beautiful coat, I've never had the pleasure of handling any of his menswear

[13we2]

Oh they just ask me if my "size" is too big...

[Anwar]

Wore an Elena Dawson shirt and someone told me i look like a dapper pirate.

It's technically a women's piece.

Nice! I don't know much about him aside from the times I've seen his work mentioned here. Does he even produce "menswear"?

No, he doesn't. Here is my interview with Kei Ninomiya of noir.
