I recently started unfollowing people whose content focuses on mostly on hauls (even if they thrift) or working with brands accumulting more things. I find it more inspiring to follow people who work with what they already have and maybe pick up a new items here or there similiar to how I live my life. I love fashion but I'm not always shopping.

My unpopular fashion take is that just because someone wears super unique and different pieces doesn’t make their fashion better than someone who wears popular brands. It feels like a lot of fashion nowadays is people wearing brand and pieces that are weird or out there to be unique or ironic when in reality I think a lot of those outfits look like shit
@christophermekala3802
@christophermekala3802 Год назад
I agree with how you say unique and novel arrangements of garments are not necessarily inherently better than more conventional fashion but they still have great value artistically when you look past their aesthetic appeal. Sometimes it doesn't matter if it looks good. Individual, unique, expression is valuable even if it isn't deemed as aesthetically pleasing to the masses

​@@christophermekala3802 I would argue that beauty is an extremely important part of art and if it (the outfit or an artwork) looks like shit, the lowest common denominator of society could have created it and that is by definition not exceptional in any way.

​@@PrincipalSkinner3190 Both are true. People think money buys style but it clearly doesn't, hence you have people spending a ridiculous amount of money on ugly/stupid items just because of the label. The growing thing now is to look like you took a random item from 5 different people's wardrobes while blindfolded and pretending that is fashionable just because it is unique. Both camps are clueless.

Fashion is very overwhelming, to me at least. It's a hobby that is constantly urging you to spend and think of yourself as something to be perceived. "Does this look good? I need new pants but what type? Which fit?". It's like I'm always thinking of myself, the clothes I have, the clothes I could have and everything in between. Whereas my other hobbies such as film and art make me think of everything as a whole, also I'm not pushed to think of my image most of the time. Plus, watching a movie and going to a museum is a relatively cheaper experience than buying a huge haul of designer clothes. I don't know, just looking at fashion shows and discussing them most of the time doesn't feel enough, I feel that to partake in the fashion world you got consume consume consume.

My most important awakening in this past year was to realize that fashion simply isn't worth what it gives back to humanity. The wasted ressources, pollution, lives to the immense fashion industry is appalling. Truth is, most of us don't need all of our clothes. We like having many silhouettes and materials to play with and express our creativity. But when this individual creativity takes part in and encourages violence on individuals and the environment, and now that we are conscious of it, can we truly continue to endorse fashion and personal style as the virtue it is for so many people? The rise of body neutrality has made me more conscious of the way that our subjective appreciation for beauty creates discrimination. Only solution, as heartbreaking as it sounds, seems to be to stop caring about how we all appear and present ourselves. That means abandoning the grandiose "personal style" quest.

I like how you mention 'fashion isn't for everyone' because it's often a conversation I end up having. Of all my friends I'm considered the best dressed and often get asked about it or told 'I couldn't pull that off' and I often say to them for the most part I see fashion as being whatever makes you feel most comfortable & confident, not names & labels. I feel that mindset instantly eases a persons relationship to fashion. After that I then tell them to learn what colours go well together.

I'm a fan of your work and agree with your critiques. Respectfully, I'm not sure you're adequately addressing your own hypocrisy in this conversation. You're a powerful youtuber with way too many clothes and shoes---that's part of how fashion content creators maintain their brand and earn authority as experts. You're participating and serving as an influential model to millions of people. When you look good, you're setting the bar higher for others to spend more on increasingly specific fits, more detailed pieces, etc. Can you have both a dynamic fashion sense and an ethical lifestyle? I'm not sure. It seems like you and other 'higher quality' fashion creators are trying to shift your content to being more about fashion as ideology (rather than, look at my cool new shoes #32), which again is appreciated, but it reads as disingenuous to have your foot in both worlds while preaching a conservative lifestyle. I think Fashion Elitist does a pretty solid job at implicating himself in the system which is narcissistic, *elitist*, and aesthetically driven, but neither he nor you seem willing to fully confront the moral logic of your arguments and how that would reduce your consumption and the subsequent popularity of your content. I'm not sure I'm ready to face it either, or how that would even look. But it would certainly start with dramatically reducing your wardrobe to practice what you preach, as well as reorienting your content to something more wholesome and less superficial, which I think you could do and genuinely hope to see. *edit, big agree with some of the comments below.​ To answer @Dante Williamson, He could donate, sell, or raffle any clothes he doesn't use a couple times a month. He could provide visual examples like @M is saying for wardrobe/fit ideas instead of buying a bunch of new pieces. He could make a video on the paradox of altruism in our consumerist culture and his struggles with it, etc. Or he could accept that he's benefitting from an extortive culture and aim for a balance of ethics and lifestyle that he can live with, heaven knows most of us do.

I also enjoy Drews videos but I have to agree with you on that. I feel like all these as you call them “higher quality” fashion creations seem to focus a little too much on the philosophy of fashion than fashion itself. The disingenuous thing for me feels like a big factor when it’s very obvious that everything from start to finish is fully scripted even the laughs. It almost feels like a movie but with amateur actors. I wanna see more improvisation or at least make it seem like you’re not reading everything on a screen. Like look away from the camera for a second don’t have a stare down contest with it, it all just seeems a lil fake to me The only fashion youtuber that never bores me is Frugal aesthetics, man never misses and his content is so unique and refreshing

Facts. If any fashion influencer adopted a capsule wardrobe for more than a year people will get bored. The most ethical thing is to consume less and only secondhand. Most people don’t care about ethics though.
@Gnurklesquimp2
@Gnurklesquimp2 Год назад
If I was a youtuber, I'd use images from other people, like Frugal Aesthetic likes to. Hell, AI can join the party. I mean, look at my profile pic, I don't just have fun putting clothes on myself, my SSX 3 characters have like a billion outfits. My unpopular fashion/style take: Tbf, I do also have A LOT of clothes, but that's mostly a matter of front-loading. I'm very confident I will like all of this forever and don't worry about trends, each item is worn less frequently and gets the same amount of use at the end of the day, I wash at low temp etc., avoid bad durability products and don't mind a bit of a worn look, repurpose as invisible under-layers/pyjama's/beaters etc. I used to buy maybe 10 items, have limited outfits with those, wear them out, rinse and repeat. Except, it's even worse, cause some items stick around longer, now you gotta still take those into account with your limited selection, until they awkwardly fade away out of sync too. Then there was rushing to get clothes, cause I quite simply needed them, that was one awful and wasteful experience. Front-loading means I bought a lot and rarely buy now, so... Does that get boring? Here's the thing, when I very occasionally buy something, it's a bunch of new combinations worth of mileage. Even as someone who is all about layering things in many ways, changing up the color schemes and generally making it an active creative thing, I keep my clothes so clean and fresh that I wouldn't be surprised if I buy less clothes overal than a lot of people stuck in the messy rotation I described earlier. I should really stress though, it's a commitment that only works if you've settled on a core style and have explored it enough to be confident. Keep in mind your ability to branch out a bit here and there if you value that, prioritize flexible items. It won't work for most people, but going against this general advice completely revived my passion for style as it applies to myself, which I used to neglect in spite of my inspiration and passion. I don't mean buy everything today, take a few months or so, you'll accumulate clothes faster than you wear them out while still having time to really pick and choose from many different opportunities. If you're like me, from there, you're just good to go, no more pressure and the bad stuff that comes with it, not nearly as much will catch your eye and make you feel like you gotta buy it. This is also still not as good as going for a really high-end capsule comprised of items that were produced without harmful methods, but, man... Quite simply, that would cost me an arm and a leg due to the diminishing returns of durability for money spent, while also sucking the soul out of what style is all about for me, a very active thing.

I think you nailed it with most of these, but I think the issue of sustainability HAS to be addressed from the top because those companies at the top that are mass producing force smaller companies to adopt the norms of production to stay afloat. There's so much overhauling to do, but the reason everybody points the finger at the top is because the top is so in control, that in order to actually overhaul the industry, it has to start with those brands, because the small guys don't have the money or ability to actually make large scale change, or they'll just get stomped out by H&M and Shein simply because they don't have similar profit margins

companies at the very top don't mass produce at the level that fast fashion does though - that's the whole point of their business model. to create a limited supply to perpetuate exclusivity. companies at the very top also don't churn through clothing cycles every few weeks the way H&M, Zara, Shein etc. do. their business model is unique and is most harmful to the planet.

Hey Drew, really good video. I have some thoughts on the point you made about sustainability being inconsequential in fashion. This is a really long one, so sorry about that... I am an architecture grad student, and sustainability is certainly a conversation that happens frequently in the field of architecture. If I could simplify and speak broadly, there are maybe two schools of thought. The first is that architecture must respond to sustainability and the changing world in every way possible, and sustainable design is paramount. The other school of thought would be that it is not architecture's place to become sustainable, and architecture should focus on formal design and the pursuit of beauty (think the equivalent to 'high fashion' of the sorts). Those critical of the sustainable camp might point out the inconsequential nature or the greenwashing that could possibly stifle architecture innovation (ie, it is not architecture's place to champion sustainability, or that architecture should not 'lead' with sustainability, but it should be sought after), while those critical of the other might point out that the state of the world can no longer afford this kind of approach, and that sustainability is the human race's #1 priority. So it becomes really interesting to me that fashion somewhat echoes the sentiment. It makes me think that if it is not fashion or architecture's place (bar a massive shift like you suggested), then who's place is it? Something has to happen, and I don't know where I personally stand on the matter. I also think fashion and architecture (certainly at the 'high fashion' and 'high architecture') level think and act very similarly. All you have to do is look at fashion labels and their association with notable architects (Prada and Herzog and de Meuron, Hermès and Renzo Piano, Virgil Abloh, etc) Curious what you (and others) think. Forgive me if any of this sounded pretentious in how I talk about architecture, I try not to use gatekeepy language if possible.

While I agree with your viewpoint on fashion lacking timelessness, I think it’s important to note that style transcends time. Fashion revolves around embracing the latest trends and staying current, but it truly unfolds when we cultivate a unique style that speaks our own truth. Style is constructed upon a framework of established principles and guidelines which have evolved but endured the test of time. Knowing the rules allows us to break them and create our own personal style, blending different elements together. Certain fashion items will always possess a timeless quality to them like a leather jacket or denim jeans but there will always be variations of these items circulating based on current trends. Same goes with style genres like emo, grunge, punk, vintage, preppy, etc, they will still be around in 100 years. There is a wonderful quote from YSL that speaks volumes to all of this - “fashion fades, style is eternal.” I used to have the same notion that fashion is exhausting and since you are a fashion influencer/RU-vidr, I can see why you feel that way. But it doesn’t have to be. Instead of trying to compete in the rat race that is the fashion industry, take a step back and ponder why am I competing in the first place. Ultimately, clothing is just an accessory that should compliment us, but not define us. Clothing, in itself, is not exhausting. However it is the game we find ourselves entangled in, that is.

First of all - I enjoy your videos a lot and like that you bring your very personal perspective to the table and are willing to discuss it. But I have to disagree hard with the arguments you make for your first point. Yes, financial means play an important role in fashion, especially mainstream fashion. But saying that fashion plain and simple “isn‘t for those“ who cannot afford the current it-pieces season after season is a very elitist thing to say and disregards that many trends develop in subcultures and are often rather inexpensive at the beginning. There was the Nike Monarch wave for example. And the Adidas Samba was widely available for very little money just a year ago - at least here in Germany. The same goes for vintage Carhartt stuff or what is now known as Gorpcore items, and so on. So yes, following trends is expensive, but participating in fashion isn‘t necessarily. And I would counter your second argument in a similar way. Yes, fashion favors certain body types - but this is a very serious problem in itself (with potential [mental] health ramifications) and should not remain uncontested. I would hope that slowly but surely, fashion acknowledges that people look differently and become more inclusive. So again, saying that fashion simply “isn‘t for those“ who don‘t fit the current ideal and thereby excluding them from the fashion discourse is a statement I cannot support at all.

Omg i wrote a paper on the effects of fashion has in the world for my sociology final. Basically 85% of the pollution in lanfills is from textiles (think clothes in a landfill) about a 5th of the worlds plastic pollution comes from fashion, 10% of global carbon pollution, In the paper i also wrote about the ethics of fashion as a whole. And concluded the paper with not only blaming the big fashion brands but also the consumer. The consumer plays a huge role in the manufacturing and production of fashion. We all like to talk about fast fashion but in reality fashion as a whole is the issue along with the consumer.

I think you should be more specific when you say that "fashion isn't for everyone." I think what you meant to say is people trying to enter the fashion, whether it being a designer, influencer, guru, or model. Styling yourself isn't at all that hard, especially with the right mindset. Anyone can find their style, I just think you are over thinking this and just focusing on the corporate space of fashion. What is even the highest level of fashion? Are you in the highest level of fashion? What I think fashion truly is is a self expression of what you feel in the clothes you wear. I think that is something anyone can do. If you are talking about fashion as a career, then that's a different story my guy.

Drew, I always appreciate your outlooks. I am an apparel/soft goods designer and I am always impressed by how accurately you describe fashion economics and understand the chain of command and responsibility. My specific degree was in outdoor gear and sports apparel so my program heavily emphasized sustainable materials, closed loop supply chains, ethical manufacturing, and durability. The hardest part about working in this industry is, when you begin you aren’t totally aware of how absolutely atrocious the machine is. It is painful to want to create beautiful things because that is your passion and knowing you are really contributing nothing good to the world. I know many young people entering this industry live with the same woes but we have to think about what we can do to create positive changes within the system. Because while being incredibly difficult to achieve, pushing for change is far more realistic than everyone giving up and changing careers because people WILL always consume no matter what. I see a lot of comments that “thrifting/secondhand is the only way to consume fashion responsibly.” Which, it is absolutely the best way to reduce your carbon footprint. The majority of my closet is thrifted as well. However, I see comments all the time on social outright telling folks to stop buying and I view it as a form of virtue signaling. The reality is, if people weren’t consuming NEW product at the rate we currently are, especially if we were to never buy new again, then there would be nothing in the thrift stores to buy. Secondhand shopping couldn’t be the craze it is currently if there wasn’t overconsumption steering the wheel. I don’t say this to dishearten anyone from secondhand shopping but maybe to help other’s put a lens on that it isn’t the only solution. As we used to say in school “the only thing that is truly sustainable is never buying anything at all.”

Overall great video bro. Two of the reasons you listed I have comments for I think your first reason, about fashion not being for everyone I think is valid, but I’d also I’d add the context of finding your own style. I think a lot of the times when people buy those higher end clothes I think sometimes it’s about really emulating the brands values, which is fine, but not much else. I think instead of people needing to feel like they need to contort themselves into what the brands values, I think they would do more to develop their own style. I mean what good is buying some of those expensive clothes if you don’t wear them well or even truly like them. For my second comment, I liked that you highlighted that the fashion industry as whole needs to change to make it more sustainable. I think often times, as you said, fast fashion gets well deserved criticism, but also I think it doesn’t help when people criticize or even villainizing the people that do buy it. Especially when that may be the only things someone can afford. But also, just because something maybe more expensive doesn’t necessarily make it better than the fast fashion product. One of the real issues is overconsumption and how attached we are too it. I think a way we could combat this is more scaled down orders of clothes. That could be accomplished with things like custom sizing to cut down on waste and excess. Also an idea I got from another channel was creating more of circular economy of clothing, which they dubbed a “clothing library”. I know the thought of some people wearing another person’s borrowed clothing is strange for some but I mean it would be in the same vein as thrifting so to speak. Like I said before, you made some great points Drew!

Lets go nuggets😤 I thought this vid was super interesting, especially when you talked about ur brand, because it’s relatable. I love fashion, and I’d love to buy sustainable fabrics and start my own brand, but realistically I might just make myself some clothes since it’s so crowded with brands, but I still would love to design stuff.

I don’t think that everything moves from the top to the bottom when it comes to timeless pieces I mean sure the suit definitely came from the top, but brother you’re wearing some of the oldest forms of workwear right now that came from the bottom. Also I think the pattern of what becomes timeless is not when it trended and fell out of trend it’s how long it can remain aesthetically appealing to generations over time. Again like denim jeans or jackets. They don’t trend, but they’re always around and everyone wears them because they just work. Timeless.

Unpopular opinion: Sneakerheads should be their own thing, they are by definition anti-fashion. Same could apply to "bag girls" or any kind of person that only cares about 1 specific article of clothing, especially the hype around it.

want to add one: "importance of practicality of clothes is underrated". Fashion designers often force us to go for trendy looks, not necesseraly for practicality . For example, wearing sherpa in summer, because it is in style . Or , wearing items without pockets/little pockets/not functional pockets. Or wearing white jeans which becomes grey after one wear. Etc ...

Fashion industry does contribute around 10% of all CO2 emissions, which is more than all the flights and marine transportation combined, which is absurd. And the biggest thing is, that environmentally it doesn't matter that much where or how a new product is made. Most significant thing is that it IS MADE in the first place. That is why I always try to shop secondhand/vintage since that is the only way to contribute into the world I love which is style and fashion while not supporting the creation of new clothing, which is initially the biggest problem here. Not gonna go and say that I dont buy new clothes from time to time, but I try my best to avoid it. Great video Drew, keep it up 🙏🏻❤️

And to add some, while agree and love social media as a platform to learn and express oneself, I would say it is the nr. 1 contributor for the pressure of youth (and why not others too) to hop on and follow all the newest trends and fads and never feel good enough with what they have, aka consume more products which is a disaster for the environment as stated before. Just giving my 2 cents on the subject, I hope you like a decent take and engagement altho a bit rant-ish 😂 I'm quite passionate about this since I'm writing my master's thesis close to this subject!

I‘m so sorry for this: Please check your pronunciation of superf-L-uous and have another look at the definition of ultimate and hence penultimate. I hardly know what you may mean by fashion, since it died in the 1990ies and what we now observe is a merry-go-round of 20-year-trends. Like a true zombie fashion still kills - probably much more than when it was still kicking. What we need is personal style. It is great to have channels like yours that reflect on the place of the individual in the face of (zombie)-fashion. I‘m so with you on social media. We can make it better, I hope. More humane etc. and still keep its great potential to inspire.

It's my hot take on your timeless pieces I think a regular fitting black or white t is timeless it fits in summer and can be layered in winter. You can throw anything and use the t as base layer and can wear them straight alone they look good in slim, skinny, wide, tapered, straight, flared any fit it's just the basic of fashion

fashion like any other art is incredibly subjective... but it suffers because whereas most people are content with just viewing a certain famous painting/sculpture, everybody who can afford a certain item of clothing will buy that clothing to wear in order to make themselves look trendy/expensive/unique/aesthetically cohesive.

I love fashion and always have, but it's exhausting to see these trend cycles move in a matter of weeks. I'm tired of seeing fashion brands from Gucci to ShEin producing lackluster products, all to meet their bottom line. At least with most fast fashion brands, they don't usually pretend they're about something new or innovative. It's more often the luxury labels that keep producing items each fashion season, and clearly don't have decent ideas. Maybe part of it is shareholders and execs pushing for new ideas, even when designers are burnt out, I don't know, but I wonder if any of those working for a fashion brand can honestly say, they aren't proud of their work and they're creatively...lacking. of course, taste will vary and something you're feeling now, you might not be feeling ten years from now, but you will be in twenty years! Or maybe it was always ugly, who knows haha

My unpopular fashion take is basic isn’t bad. Some people want to dress well and not stand out like a sore thumb. So if that means dressing like everyone else, so be it. I don’t care if I dress the same way as everyone else. I just want to look cleaner without drawing too much attention to my self.

This video (both the parts I agree with and disagree with) is exactly why I don’t lean into “fashion” as a concept and instead stick with developing my personal “style.” I buy items produced by the fashion industry when I want to, when it resonates, and when it feels/looks good to me. I don’t care about price or trendiness as much as I care about fabric, fit, quality of construction, and ethics. “Fashion” is a component of personal style, regardless of whether it has a more artful or consumerist angle. It shouldn’t be the foundation.

Being in fashion industry since 11 years, I can see changes on body type, but much more extreme (anorexic or obese) which is kind of sad and stupid because there's no normal people, more closer than "everyone". Normally you dont have to be skinnier to be more confident in clothing, its more about knowing your body type and fit. I hope and I work for that, normal or average shape will rise up

Well i guess social media has some type of positive effect on fashion, but then the biggest thing that stands out for me about social media's effect on fashion is that people loose some sense of authenticity to them. Since our generatiom is so "lost" and still tryna find themselves, some of them can't even think for themselves or have thier own opinions on certain topics which basically means that they would rather be a part of a "cult" (Luh twizzy) or copy some other persons style (build up a persona) rather then actually expressing themselves
