>tfw still pissed off about the fact that my dad dressed me in pants that were over three sizes too big and too log throughout my entire childhood because "I'd grow in them", and when I finally did I got a new pair that was three sizes too big because the new ones were "too tight and gay"

I know that feel, user. Same thing happened to me, with the reason:
>Don't worry, you'll wear it with a belt!
Except I didn't have any much belts but those cheap olive green pull-to-tighten ones that have to fit + match with school uniform pants
(No prizes for guessing which country I'm in).
I had to argue with my dad that some pants are suppose to fit and hang on their own without belts.
I ended up with pairs of jeans that were too loose to even wear. It's just awful.
>go -15
My parents used to buy me strictly bootcut jeans when i was a kid
Same. I honestly learned to pinroll jeans because of this. Its pretty ridiculous.
>used to be very conscious about looking 'girly'
>deem all of fashion girly
>always wearing big jeans, crewneck longsleeves with some bullshit writing like "PORTLAND EST. 1985" and hoodies
>literally my biggest concern when shopping for clothes was to have them look as toned down as possible, god forbid anything was flashy
>thought checkered shirts are fancy at 13
>wore them unbuttoned over graphic tees

when and why did humanity collectively forget how to dress themselves
around 1970
that is the when.
the why is that mass produced clothes produced in labor-cheap countries made clothes disposable to a historically unprecedented amount of the population. people no longer developed 'relationships' with their clothing, or put any thought into their clothing because they could afford to just toss it and buy the next new fad instead of devoting time and energy into developing a personal style.
basically fast-fashion killed good clothing.

There's certainly something to this, though even a lot of the wealthier people I know don't like to spend the money to get bespoke or made to measure like people in their station would have in the past. It's like how the percentage of income spent on food has steadily decreased in the first world. Now the idea of going back to spending the kind of money someone in the past would have spent seems outrageous.
Had to wear my brothers hand-me-downs even though I was a good foot shorter and a girl.

Ever since then, I've always tried way too hard on Halloween.
Pic related, try to find me
heh me too. I finally fixed my clothing to decentcore around 15-16, three or four years too late compared to everyone else. Feels bad man.
heh I'm that brother
laughs on you, little sister
Jesus Christ user if you're the kid covering his face this is the saddest shit I've ever seen
glad this was way back though, thank god you weren't in high school
>heh
*hug*
at least you had a sick normcore fit
Fuck dude this was me.
> dad wears baggy clothes because he's a retired thug
>buys me baggy ass pants a size too big
>"these are too big"
>"no they're not. Wear a belt with them" or "you'll grow in to them"
>"I need a belt when I wear pants my actually size"
>"don't fucking wear them then"
My dad was also cheap so he used to buy my clothes from Wal Mart and k mart.
I was a chubby kid but this fucker would buy me 2x shirts and 36 waisted pants. I need a belt when I wear size 34 pants and I wear a large. I still haven't grown in to my clothes from middle school.

what's decentcore ? post inspo
it's not a core lmfao maybe I used the word wrong
with decentcore I meant decent clothing. I just coordinated my colours properly and bought less gaudy faggoty shit
how new are you
legit 10/10
Damn....
>look a picture
>ignore the shopped heads, even if they probably look like shit with or without photoshop
>focus on jeans
>not a single pair fits properly
How ?
The late 90s early 00s
Iktf, same thing happened to me.
Was lucky I had some cool foreign neighbours that had children slightly older than me and gave us nice clothing.
Used to dress like shit until about 15yrs old.
That explains it.
Got any more recent (2013 +) picture of fashion mistakes ? I'm very insecure and it makes me feel better about myself.
Look up drop crotch joggers with Jordan's. Eughhh

If you had to be one of these guys which one would it be? Hard mode: you must wear their outfits as well
Top kek that's a meet up of the french forum 15-18
so cute
I used to dress like a wannabe cholo in the middle school. Southpole and shit. Gross.
Santa hat guy.
This pic was taken in the late 00's though.
How late? Jncos didn't really exist in pop culture. Late 00's brought skinny fitting jeans into the mainstream.
Meant to say weren't really pop culture around that time.
2008-2009
It's not a style, it's just people dressing bad. This picture is from a french forum full of unpopular guys.
Ah that makes more sense. Did jncos not die out in France for a while or are they just super out of touch kids?
This. They're like the french Veeky Forums, but with censorship.
Jncos were never a thing in France. Just baggy jeans.
Here's another one.
