Fashion

This thread about actual fashion for life and fun. What’s the most popular fashion style in your country ?

 

 

P.S. This pic just for fun, we never wear such ridiculous clothes

[Rosbjerg]

I live in Nørrebro, a municipal in Copenhagen with a high racial and cultural diversity. So the fashion here tends to be something of a mix between different styles (and usually a lot of tattoos)

 

This is pretty common around where I live, kind of a mix between hipster and rockabilly.

 

The more relaxed style.

 

And here an example of how young girls >25 will dress.

 

and then the "modern gentleman", although they rarely go to this length.

I live outside London, so all the men wear check shirts. I honestly couldn't say what the women wear. *thinks* That's a  bit worrying, actually.

Russian common men'street style looks like

 

Uncommon men's style

 

 

Typical russian women's style

 

Our style look's simplificied (less cloths) and more sexy/functional in comparision with eouropean street fashion.

Those pics could have been taken right here in Memphis. 

[Malcador]

Pretty much the same here in Toronto. Except the women wear shades that cover half their face.

[Rosbjerg]

Yeah I guess western fashion in general (especially in the bigger cities) is pretty similar.

Or Houston. Except more sunglasses and perhaps lighter clothes, because the heat is usually around 100+ Fahrenheit or 38+ Celsius.

Yeah, I would guess it is because with the Internet people are able to discover the fashions that they like that sprout up in other places that they would not normally be exposed to, thus creating an environment where fashion is not as "nation-exclusive" as it was in past decades.

 

And perhaps you could christen the Copenhagen fashion "Hipsterbilly" or something. It also reminds me of Austin.

Any grown man that rolls up his pants legs should receive an open hand chop to the windpipe. Imo.

While I agree in most cases, rolling up the legs to the ankle or one inch above the ankle is acceptable in my book.

Not that high, you goon.

I don't know about US fashion today, but I sure am glad the 80's hair fads are over.

 

[Guard Dog]

Ahh the 80's. Times we'll never see again. Personally I think anyone who wore one white glove out in public in those days and whose initials were not MJ should by hung by their leather pants. 

[Rosbjerg]

Were the hairdos part of the African craze that seemed to permeate the 80's?

[Gfted1]

The 80's were a dark time for fashion. I vividly remember parachute pants and half shirts.

 

*shudder*

[Amentep]

I mostly remember neon colors for everything in the 80s.

[Meshugger]

In the 80's all the adults that i knew pretty much dressed like Jon Bon Jovi or Joey Tempest. 

 

Now? They pretty much look like the H&M catalog.

I have to say I don't find those hairstyles attractive or complementing  the ladies overall appearance at all

[obyknven]

Celebrities fashion style.

 

In ex-USSR such kind of clothes wear common people too.  Proud father with daugther.

 

Just a girl

 

These pic's are old, but this style yet actual in high fashion. From summer 2013 collection. At least this is fashion of Egyptian Pharaohs, some sort of classics, fashion of live gods. Russian's kill own gods in 1917, after this common Russians don't have mental limitations to use any style of elite for yourself.

[Walsingham]

LOL. So much for Oby's principled stance on female clothing.

[Guard Dog]

Hmmm, makes you think about those ads where you can meet Russian women looking to get married.

 

[obyknven]

Moar examples of Russian cloths.

Your reaction is expectable. Different cultural background.
 
Your society divided to many groups (gays, immigrants, hipsters, yappi etc) with own dress code and privileges /limitations.  Only your elite can be corrupted, sexy, amoral and wear such clothes, it's their privileges . Quod licet Iovi, non licet bovi.
 
Meanwhile we live too long in classless state, we see Gotterdamerung of aristocracy, our minds are free from caste limitations. In our land all people can be corrupted, sexy and amoral, it's main reason to blaming Russian society as corrupt by West. We all are descendants of the slavs, but pretend have privileges of the elite. Such breaking of aristocratic rules make butthurt to Western enchained minds
