also, why do you say things like this on other forums?
Because that's how I feel. I'm not going to air those grievances here because I don't want to get banned but sometimes certain users are huge assholes.

It's becoming more of a soap opera in here...

See, an outfit like that may have been considered avant-garde at some point, but is now completey hackneyed and de rigueur.
I don't necessarily know what the cutting edge of fashion is, now, but it's not that. The recent shows from Rick are 100% shorts and aggressively outsized proportions. The recent shows from BBS are anything but black and white.
I think this look is what Faust meant when he said the fits here are mediocre, now. Posting something like this is akin to posting vanilla on an ice cream forum.

defender while, avant-garde can never be stagnant, especially in a world like this, where assimilation and change is so common and notable. looking to rick to be on the cutting edge really isn't fair because i'd say he's found his look, and perhaps even matured on it. it's somewhat a facet of avant-garde to have to be ever changing to be properly avant-garde, as our definition of normal changes and matures, so to does our definiton of abnormal. i think it's pervasive and intrinsic within avant-garde art to have to evolve. though perhaps bland by current sz standards, the diluted avant-garde look of a few years ago still isn't necessarily a bad one, though, perhaps it is indeed a little bit banal.

CCPOriginally posted by eleves View PostWhat are you two referring to? Mediocre fits in what sense? Looking at something and thinking its a terrible fit because it is, or just disliking it because its against personal preference? Actually really curious about those things! I've also noticed either more confrontation in general amongst younger sets of people or just a general lack of care for it.
I mean no offense personally to these gents, but even though the so-called SZ aesthetic may no longer be avant-garde (if you want avant-garde, wear J.W.Anderson's pussy-bows), SZ is still, and will always be a place that adheres to high standards. That's what it was made for, one place devoid of mediocrity. I don't see why people are not satisfied with those. And if punks like rickandjulius cannot tell the difference between 4chan/reddit and SZ, I will gladly steer them in the right direction.*
Defender - while it is somewhat true that the "SZ aesthetic" has been co-opted and diluted - this is the natural cycle of all culture. BUT, and it's a big BUT, the high standards are still there - the fitting, the proportions, the textures, the colors (such as they are), the shades, the quality of materials make all the difference between a good fit and just another kid in a long black tee and drop-crotch shorts or artisanal normcore.
*I am addressing the punks like rickandjulius here. SZ is first and foremost a place to discuss a certain kind of fashion and culture. It's not for horsing around, or satisfying your narcissism. Read the fucking manifesto. You, rickandjulius, and a few others, have said jack shit about fashion so far. You have been warned.Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde
