How did Globohomo manage to convince men that wearing overpriced tight uncomfortable clothes made out of shitty materials was fashionable or cool?

Since it was interpreted that the one on the left is wearing daddy's oversized clothes.

They don't want to encourage men to be active or build muscle, so the clothing is marketed as a means of displaying a woman's curves which is more attractive to men than actual male body

This. This is exactly why the early 2000's suits were peak. Enough room for the muscles and no faggy focus on the waist or legs. Freedom of movement with the relaxed fit and broad shoulders is where it's at.

You had millennials wearing their sister's clothes because they saw Justin Bieber do it and clothing companies caught on. Now we have our streets filled with stick insect looking faggots because they think it's cool. It's not a conspiracy.

I did hear this guy make the point that tight fashion is cheaper. So it has been pushed. so that brands make more in bulk.

Are you retarded. You make 10,000 suits or you make 5,000 suits with the same material because the cuts are bigger, if the market will only bear a specific set cost then you just halved your income.

Poors can't afford it or the tailor to make it fit correctly so it's 'fashion'. Most of western culture exists to know who has money and who doesn't

It's not even that much of a difference in price vs what they're selling you. They're selling you the cut, the style, the fit, not the material used. How much do you think fabric costs? And then you've got skinny suits for fat men. How much material is saved there? Almost every country can make it with machines. It's not like some leather that comes from a rare cave-dwelling goat in the Himalayas.

Tight fashion isn't cheaper in the slightest. Labor, tools, and time required to manufacture are the majority of the cost. That is why a shirt that is sized small is the same price as a large shirt the vast majority of cases. Beyond that with like XXXL shirts, it's not even the materials driving up the price, it's that it requires different manufacturing as it requires a different, lower volume assembly line.
Tight clothes are more expensive because they require more tailoring. A skinny suit that has very loose tolerance on the sewing will not work. However baggy boomer suits have a LOT more wiggle room for error. More precise manufacturing, or more steps involved (this includes more cuts that tend to need to be made with tighter fitting clothing) = higher costs. These costs way override the tiny savings one would get with less bulk cloth.

For good men’s suits, yes the fabric does become a cost concern. If you are used to fast fashion slop then no, the fabric is abysmal. But with men’s suits trends come from the expensive luxury leaders and come down to fast fashion. Not the other way.

>Men’s xxl and men’s s are the same cost for high quality shirts and jackets and pants

Lololol. No sir they are not. You are used to shopping at some place that has shit fabrics and is willing to eat the minuscule cost of the different size. As you go up in quality, where men’s fashion trends originate you will find you pay more for more fabric used.

Stop getting them in boring colors anon, I've got a green/teal/black checkered suit that I wear with a turmeric yellow shirt or a vibrant purple shirt and socks to match whichever shirt I decide on.
If you combine that with some nice dress shoes and a silver chain around your neck, you'll anything but boring.

Damn. Not my style at all, but I kinda dig it. I'm more of a straight dark grey with a pastel blue or purple shirt, or burgundy, kind of guy. I like monochrome with bright color. And def not skinny cut.

I wasn't that anon you were replying to, btw.

My suit doesn't have the vest and I wear it with bright colored shirts.
Initially I thought I just wasn't a suit guy and that I'd always resent having to wear one, but when I got my tartan suit and saw how vibrant it is, I felt like a million bucks while wearing it. Still do.
I'm with you on the definitely not skinny cut, I'm a hefty guy so I don't want to look like I'm bursting at the seams.

Do you have a dark complexion and if so, do you wear gold jewelry with that?
I ask because I kind of imagine that someone pale would look washed out wearing those colors.
>>938009675
I used to be overweight, now I'm just a bit chubby and rounded. I too hate tight clothes, unless they are made from really soft natural materials.

I'm white but not Irish white, more on the tanned side. Picrel is close-ish to my tones, but with something like a pastel blue shirt and dark blue tie. I don't wear any jewelry. I hate it. Not even a watch.

"Boring person" is literally the first - and likely the only - opinion I'll form when crossing paths with a clown dressed like this. It screams "please notice me sempai" louder than a pink wig and choker on a high school girl.
It's a guarantee that their clothes is the most interesting thing about them. Like the carefully styled moustaches of hipsters - the more elaborate the moustache, the more boring the man hidden behind it.
I've yet to meet a single exception to the rule.

Olfag here, who's never worn a modern "slim cut" suit but plenty of baggy 80s-90s suits from back in the day....

I'll be real, I've never understood how the fuck people move in those slim fit suits. It looks like there's no way possible to even have a natural range of movement.

It looks like you'd rib the back or sleeves, by simply reaching to grab something on the top shelf. You'd rip the crotch out of the pants by simply taking a big step.

mens and womens fashions were designed by what makes them attractive to the opposite sex. It wasnt an accident by design

Really? Skinny-fit shit is made to attract the same sex. No woman thinks that look good. And then you have to explain the shoulder pad in women's suits back in the 80s. No man thought broad-shouldered women looked hot. It's all fashion and designed around what makes you feel good about yourself. If you're secure in your faggotry, you get skinny jeans. If you're a woman who thinks you can't hang with the strong men, you get shoulder pads.

Now high heels and tight skirts with cleavage hanging out, I agree with you on that one.
