Asexual.

Clothing that de-emphasizes sex characteristics. OR, clothing that makes sexual identity ambiguous.

So androgyny? If that's the next trend, I approve.

Aren't those hipsters androgynous enough alredy?

What does /fa/ think about these pants (Without Walls), and the jogger/cargo//jogger/chino hybrids in general? Personally I think they look pretty nice, and they let you wear your shoes with pride, without rolling up your cuffs like a hipster.

And, do criticize me on this, but I feel like stretchy materials are making belts unnecessary/obsolete. Maybe not for dressing up, but certainly for everyday fits. Opinions on this?

I wouldn't wear them but they seem ok, they made me think of some small town in Canada for whatever reason.

I don't think it would fit with the blue shirt they used there.

>stretchy materials are making belts unnecessary/obsolete

Jeans will still be around.

Just bought most of my spring/summer wardrobe at my local used clothing store. I'll post a couple fits later.

Second pic looks nice, you seem to look like a hippie so you should pull it off.

More specific please? 'Don't like' isn't helpful. I'm curious as to why you don't like it though.

Left looks high school stoner tier, but isn't offensive or anything. Right is full on hippie-core, but looks like it might work for you.
>>3279
Don't wear the Palladiums with this fit. They look awful here. Not a fan of the belt here either, a little too casual compared to the rest. Brown leather might work better.
tl;dr None of it's /fa/, but the top 2 don't look too bad.

you're still in the phase of identifying what garments you like to wear without yet thinking about the colors or textures of your wardrobe as a whole

people new to fashion take a very emotive approach to buying individual pieces of clothing. Decisions are based on a knee jerk reaction to whatever social demographic owns the garment in question
look at this guy
>>3291
he can't really articulate what he likes or dislikes.
"high school stoner" this "hippie" that, likely has said IRL in earnest, "that's kinda hipster"
his comments are purely based on who he has seen wear clothes similar to yours. this is how most people think about clothing

top left is horrible. Sometimes "you look like a high schooler" actually is a good reason to stop wearing something
top right is best, feels sincere and you look happiest; the highly saturated shirt looks nice with the unsaturated black and white. shoes are ugly though.

bottom two are an ok effort but you fucked the palette, see pic, needs contrast - dark brown belt and shoes would work
short sleeve button downs are for dweebs
tucking your shirt in is also for dweebs.
LIFE HACK: don't wear clothes that make you look uncomfortable, or worse, actually uncomfortable

Thank you, Anon; that was very helpful. You're correct in that I am still developing a style, and haven't really committed to a 'look' yet. I am definitely trying to dress for myself, i.e. wear what makes me happy. I don't really care about trends, for better or worse I guess.

>top left is horrible
Yeah.

>top right is best
>shoes are ugly though.
Also agree. I need some new canvas shoes, perhaps. Something low-key for summer.

>short sleeve button downs are for dweebs
>tucking your shirt in is also for dweebs.

Disagree. It depends on the context, like everything. Honestly part of me wants to go for a modern, flat, detail-less look, but it's tough shopping used.

>don't wear clothes that make you look uncomfortable, or worse, actually uncomfortable

I'm working on it. Poorfag shopping at used clothing stores. Have to take what I can get. It's getting better over time though.

Anyway thanks again, good feedback. I'm learning about color, already applying that knowledge to graphic design. I'll try to be more conscious about how it applies to clothing in the future.
