phil idk sometimes i worry that dressing loudly as a bigger dude i just call attention to my size and risk looking outlandish in a bad way, but i like loud things! it is a conundrum
― burberry kush (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 15:28 (twelve years ago) link
but its not loud in a garish way as long as you wear it right (which im assuming you do). also, i think it says a lot about someone's confidence! if i see a bigger dude doing color and print well, i think "oh, he's probably a great fuck". or "god, what a fag". or both.
on the flip side, i have no idea what people think when they see me dressed like a clown. btw, i dont dress like that upthread photo all the time. it was a persian themed party, and thats the closest i could come up with without having to go buy some new shit.

agree w everyone upthread that its an awesome shirt, if i ever found a floral fun shirt in my size i would probably be unable to resist
― burberry kush (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 16:02 (twelve years ago) link
i actually have too many fun shirts. trying to offload some. actually what size are you? i do have some L (non-funshirt) stuff though I bought either to wear oversized or L or XL stuff I bought only because it was 90% off (so asian of me). a denim yohji coat with furry collar, maroon yohji sweater, a kooky henrik vibskov black/white knit robe...

i'm generally an XL but depending on sizing i wouldn't be surprised if i needed a 2X :(

this reminds me, these 'fun shirts' are pretty popular in HK (and i imagine japan, where HK gets all its style tips from). also khakis with contrast lining, cuffed so you can see whatever crazy polka dots/stripes live in the inside of your pants!!

These things all remind me of '90s cowboy shirts!

my shirts are not fun, but what is the general opinion on plain pink shirts? is this something you can only get away with in a trad business/banking environment?

oh, yeah there were a collab between visionaire and lacoste. they got a bunch of artists to make 'em. were super expensive, but got em at the 2nd hand store here in brooklyn for like $18 each! hoping more will pop up there. though i think the three i got are the three i like the best. wouldn't mind the tennis one or perhaps the vegas one.
