I used to never really care about fashion. Felt like a stupid status symbol. But I once went to a big city in east asia, and I was impressed by how nicely everybody dressed. Everybody felt like they complemented the environment, and I felt like I stook out like a sore thumb.

I feel like that's an underappreciated side of fashion. Dressing up to fit the environment, to avoid ruining overall aesthetics. It's less about the individual, more about the community. In this asian city I also noticed that people weren't as loud and disruptive in public spaces. It feels like the same concept. You try not to make loud noises to disturb others, and you try not to dress so badly as to clash with the environment.

It really feels like a cultural difference between the east and west, and I feel like the west could learn a bit from the east here.

So if you're going to a fine dining restaurant with ornate decor and chandeliers, dress up in fancy clothes. If you're just walking around a popular spot in the city, casual is fine but look at how people are dressed around you and try not to clash. The goal isn't to look amazing and draw attention, the goal is to avoid looking out-of-place.

That definitely wasn't my wardrobe approach. One of my main inspirations as I was learning how to dress better was Chalky White from Boardwalk Empire.

I like colors. Tended toward the ostentatious. But I was working in politics, so it helped to be eye-catching.

I remember parts of this show being oddly dark. I'd watch a reboot that was all about America declining but with dinosaurs.

The ending was about as bleak as endings get.

Why do 'Murican "car guys" make owning a car (well, the finance company really owns it) their whole personality?

It's a car

Like dickheads who wear Harley clothing to advertise the fact that they're afraid of going around corners and desperately need attention

[–] mattyroses@lemmy.today 11 points 17 hours ago

Fun fact, for decades Harley has made more selling their clothes to wannabes than selling their shit bikes to dentists with a midlife crisis

[–] nickiwest@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not nearly as bad as the lady who briefly worked in my office. She had a ton of Harley-Davidson accessories. Literally the first thing she told us was that she and her husband love the brand and riding motorcycles. I asked how many Harleys they had. The answer? Zero, but they hoped to buy one someday.

They made "hoping to own something" their whole personality.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 4 points 9 hours ago

They made “hoping to own something” their whole personality.

The American Dream.

[–] Ilovethebomb@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 hours ago

I wonder what will happen when they can actually afford to buy a Harley, and realize they're not very good bikes?

[–] BeardedBlaze@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

To be fair, it's not just an American thing. Plenty of beemer bros in Europe.

[–] Wander@sh.itjust.works 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

All of western history people cared about how they look.

Now people just go out wearing some advertisement for some stupid company.

Self respect and respect for the community is gone.

[–] ReluctantMuskrat@lemmy.world 13 points 22 hours ago (8 children)

Being concerned about what strangers think of you & your attire is the opposite of self-respect.
