<p>So basically everyone in my school wears hollister, abercrombie, AE, etc. I'm kind of sick of it. Yeah, some of their stuff is nice, but people aren't wearing it because they like it, but because that's what they are influenced by society to wear (sociology win).</p>
<p>I just ordered a bunch of clothes off of laredoute.fr :P. It'll be interesting to see people's reactions when my wardrobe does a 180.</p>
<p>What do you think of the whole clothing fad? Do you conform? Why?</p>
<p>I wear monochrome, brightly-colored t-shirts with blue jeans in the winter and khaki or gray shorts the rest of the year because it’s simple and all I have to do is pick clothes from the top of my pile.</p>
<p>The best nonconformist clothing is no clothes at all.</p>
<p>I wear everything. If I want to look nice though, I won’t pick AE or abercrombie or other brands like that. Those clothes are for more relaxed purposes (although I have some AE sweaters that are really warm with deep hoods which are nice). I’m more likely to go all out in the winter, where I always match my outfits. In the summer, it’s always just cargo, boardshorts, or basketball shorts.</p>
<p>^^olol North Face is extremely popular in my school.</p>
<p>Honestly I just wear whatever looks nice, and that includes Hollister, Abercrombie, and AE. I have clothes from everywhere, including the aforementioned stores, Thrift Stores, Walmart, random obscure online stores from all over the world, department stores in the mall (like Sears), J. Crew, pretty much every store you can imagine.</p>
<p>@ luminouzz: It’s the opposite in NJ lol. Everyone owns a North Face. Even I own a one (but it’s actually for cycling, whereas most people wear it for fashion).</p>
<p>Is everyone LMAO w t f’ing because North Face is unpopular in my area, or because I still fit into my club basketball shirts from five years ago…?</p>
<p>I wear wherever I want. Nordies, thrift, Saks, White House Black Market, Urban Outfitters, hand me downs, Ann Taylor, Fossil, small stores in this excellent district, BCBG, etc. I make no deliberate attempt to conform or to be perceived as different. But people at my school aren’t really that into AE and Abercrombie anyway. Not since like 8th grade. Hollister stores smell like guys who wear too much Axe.</p>
