So I noticed my friend in a very, very cool zipper hoody indeed the other day and demanded him to cough up some more links to good Danish stores and fashion labels. Unfortunately I couldn't find much of interest, and it all cost about 120£ anyway. I followed the links on the Woodwood site, but most things are pretty much plain shirts you'd find anywhere, but made out of something certain by someone's certain company, giving it an OTT price, and like that zipper hoody, I've decided to look for things that are a li'l bit more new and eccentric.
I googled "takeshita dori" (a street in Tokyo I heard of and thought could come up with something) but to no avail, and I've probably lost quite a bit of my time looking at nothing special. Does anyone have any suggestions for what's hawt? |

A lot of it depends on what you look like. I have brown hair, so by wearing corduroy beige or light browns, with a red bandana around my neck brings attention to my head. I find designer clothes sickening because of their prices, so I look at Value Village and other thrift stores and usually find something really nice. I found this brown designer dress shirt with pink stripes and a pink interior for $30. You should go to thrift stores and try clothes on and see what you like!

oh, ha ha-- i thought this thread was about this song (well...maybe)
There's a brand new dance But I don't know its name That people from bad homes Do again and again It's big and it's bland Full of tension and fear They do it over there but we don't do it here (CHORUS) Fashion! Turn to the left Fashion! Turn to the right Oooh, fashion! We are the goon squad And we're coming to town Beep-beep Beep-beep Listen to me - don't listen to me Talk to me - don't talk to me Dance with me - don't dance with me, no Beep-beep There's a brand new talk, But it's not very clear That people from good homes Are talking this year It's loud and tasteless And I've heard it before You shout it while you're dancing On the whole dance floor Oh bop, fashion (CHORUS) Listen to me - don't listen to me Talk to me - don't talk to me Dance with me - don't dance with me, no Beep-beep Beep-beep Oh, bop, do do do do do do do do Fa-fa-fa-fa-fashion Oh, bop, do do do do do do do do Fa-fa-fa-fa-fashion La-la la la la la la-la |

I just wear whatever. Don't care what everyone is wearing. I don't care if eeryone is wearing it. I don't get this deal that you have to be unique in clothing, for fuck's sake clothes is clothes. But I would not pay that much for clothes either.

Aye. I've just been getting very conscious about sweatshop products. Well, I have brown hair that goes ginger in the sun and very white Viking skin so if that's any help :/
Thank-you. |

Yeah I was looking at them last week and considering getting them! They look really nice and I need new shoes. I decided against it becasue I think I'm going to find some plain white shoes of the same form, and do custom designs becasue I would really like to get some freelance work going.

Once I've got some good money in I'll be getting those. Ordering off that US site is the cheapest for even us Englanders.

wtf is "vegetarian leather"?
plastic made in a clandestine hippy lab? or does it mean "we don't eat 'em, but we sure like the skin"? |

but isn't that made in some factory (defeating the anti-toxic megacorporate attitude)?
I realize that there are some things you just can't get away from, but it made me wonder why they would want to make it part of the ad. surely Dupont is involved. ![]() |

my favourite designers are kenzo, paul smith and dries van noten, maharishi do some beautiful stuff too.
if you want to see amazing pictures of japanese fashion there's a book called fruits that is very much worth looking at, i think it's published by phaidon. |

I looked through Fruits about two years ago, and it is pretty bitchin'. Isn't it all home-made clothes? That shirt's fantastic but the price is ever so slightly OTT for me.
