>>16668363Get a vintage fully metal machine with rotating bobbin system, they last fucking ages. They have only basic stitches but it's enough for most of shit.
>>16671680nope might make on though
I don't physically create my own clothes but I like to draw my own designs onto clothes that I already ownHere's a drawing of the Odessa coast on the back of a blue hoodie
>>16672418This is a really nice personal take on this kind of hoodie design. Much respect, it looks cute, cosy and fun.>>16668824You're shitting? That's a beauty. Is it lamb leather?
>>16669945You'll get there anon. Putting in the time at all is what matters, and even if you don't do a lot of big projects every time you sew you gain some muscle memory in fundamental techniques.>>16671015Never done a fashion show, but it can definitely be like that with tv. Rush jobs and emergencies all the time. I don't even want to think about trying to plan ahead for manufacturing.>Being on some else's scheduleIt was less that and more that entertainment is so tied to a few major cities. I wanted to live somewhere smaller and not live in airports half the time.I'm in [spoiler] legal [/spoiler] now, so I don't think I really cut many deadlines out of my life lol.>>16671064Great way to learn, imo. Most practical for hobbyist too, since you end up with wearable clothing once you chew through a few garments.>>16671088If you want "luxury" fabric you have to get wholesale from mills or buy overstock from small custom houses (who sell at a markup). Surprise, surprise; most of the ones you'll find in America anyways are in NYC's garment district or selling online. It's out there if you really care to make your own clothing, though it will cost you.This "I can't have the best so I might as well have bottom barrel" attitude is antithetical to the spirit of doing something yourself though.

/sprezzatura/ - Mediterranean and Menswear GeneralThis thread is for the well dressed man and those seeking to improve their dress by exploring colors, patterns, textures and other styles while appearing more mature, elegant and refined.>What is “sprezzatura”?Required viewing: https://youtu.be/_QG4lTMjWtYRequired reading: https://parisiangentleman.co.uk/2017/02/24/how-obsession-with-sprezzatura-can-kill-the-sprezzatura/>Do I have to be European to wear this style?Absolutely not. Anyone can wear this as long as they are confident and don’t care what people think. You should be dressing for yourself, not for others. Is this style more common in Italy and other Mediterranean countries? Absolutely. But you could wear this wherever you are.>How is this different than Trad/Ivy/Prep?Whereas the /TIP/ threads favor classic styles and tailoring, wider fits and more drape, Mediterranean and modern menswear favors slimmer cuts, tailored closer to the body to accentuate and flatter your body. Slim fit is allowed and in many cases encouraged.>Where should I start?Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>16671839I'm from Aruba but I work in the Netherlands as a high school teacher
>>16672298Great job anon. Considering the shirt you used as a model retails for $320 I'd say it was worth it
>>16672354Yes, the button holes are done by hand. My machine can do them, but it's fiddly and I hate the result. The collar is not detachable. The small cuts are called nicks. Yes, I use those, too, it's really useful. Yes, manual stitching on the yoke and shoulder was my choice, I wanted to give that part a consistent look.
>>16672298Let us see your gusset.
>>16672858Buy a girl a drink first!
This is my current hair length. How should I cut it? Can you post suggested haircut pics?
>>16672583Fossils can handle it, what they usually cannot handle are very tight ponytails, lots of heat from straighteners/air dryers, poor diet weakening them and such

>>16672856Don't care
>>16672875obviously photoshopped disney-tier you have to go back
is it even worth getting triple s' now that they're made in china?
The Italian ones were unironically nice as hell. The chinese ones feel and look like soulless knockoffsThey don't bother with the detailed distressing anymore. The whole shoe is flatter and lighter. There is zero use of paint. The ones you posted are literally made by dipping the bottom of the shoe in thinner and rubbing the top part with alcohol. It's not just that they're cheap, it's that they're so low effort. They've become a platform for garish color combinations and nothing else. The nogs and the nu money chinks love them because everyone knows how expensive they are, but in reality it's not the same product anymore. I love mine to death but after years and years of wear they are starting to fall apart and the only 'replacement' I can get looks and feels like a cheap chinese knockoff. Balenciaga will lie and say that "only our chinese partners can make the components of the shoe" but that's fucking rubbish. They're cutting corners like all the other commercial luxury shithouses and the best place to cut costs is labor. They've stopped making them in Italy altogether so it's not even possible to compare anymore and see how inferior the current version is
>>16671616and before some fat greasy mongolid shitmingler gets on here to say "hurr durr they were always plastic crap", the OG triple s had a lot of detail that simply isn't present on the newer details, including hand sanding of the fabric parts and hand painting of the outsole. They were also less rigid than the current version which feels and looks like one solid hunk of molded plastic. the chinese apes streamlined the design in CAD or whatever to make it easier to mass produce. outsole and uppers are made in separate factories (probably separate provinces) and then glued together for assembly. You can't remove the insoles anymore without ripping glue off the inside of the shoe. the heel material wears down even faster than the original because the heel profile has been altered and made taller. It's just an all around inferior product. Balenciaga still makes cool fun sneakers. Get the new runners or the (super new) phantom sneakers. The triple s is a dinosaur at this point and they've never been exactly comfortable to wear. About the only good thing I can say for chinese triple s is they still use the high quality laces from the original rather than the footlocker discount laces you see on the fucking godawful track sneakers
>>16671643on the newer models*fuck me
>>16671547Chinese products are super good.
if you want top notch quality for your buck, prolly not the best idea.if you like the design and wiling to pay for design. I say good. I ended up selling all mine cuz they were heavy
who was unironically the coolest person in history?
literally makes the world seethe cope dilate rent free
>>16672779He lost :)
>>16672695so sessy
>>16671140Mentally ill
>>16672818Literally proved his point.
Posted in some other thread but I thought it warranted it's own; how do I get this celebrity-tier close shave? Is it photoshop/makeup/lighting? Trying to get it this close always results in super sensitive skin and razor burn, and not doing it always results in a faint shadow. I'm very pale and have very dark black hair, so I realize that may be part of the problem, but is there any way?
Question That Don’t Deserve Their Own Threads.Why do you love women?
Can anyone ID this?
Where can I buy fake yeezy 950s?
>>16672515>Get some sweaters in muted colors that look roughtotally seeing that the jacket doesn't work - especially the fiti'm thinking that the rough sweaters would also work well over a ocdb and under a tweed / herringbone jacket - or even a white tshirt and chambray under the jacket> rugged vibedo you mean materials here or grow my beard out lol?i like the idea of layering with something like a tweed or flannel lined bedale - a bit of a heritage throwback but fairly rugged
>>16672567Good question.Though I think we should stop calling certain looks fakes.No more brands.It’s about the look.
Brand recs for wide pants?
pic related needs to make a comeback. i'm sick of seeing obese art hoes trying to cover up their fupa with waist-high jeans
Plump thicc girls pls wear those!!
>>16671667Trannies wouldn't fit in super low-rise anyway. But midriffs with high-rise as they are shown currently don't look the same as with low-rise. I mean, it's better than during the late 2000s-early 2010s when showing midriff was totally forbidden so we're getting there, but it's still half-assed.
>>16670442SO you want fat women to uncover their fupas by wearing low rise jeans?? How is that any better?
>>16672640i don't think i believe that.jeans that have a higher rise have to be shaped for a women's figure. ie. hipssuper low-rise would be better for tranny matchstick legs.plus, i'm pretty sure any posting on 2021 /fa/ that obsesses this much over women's clothing is a tranny.
>>16670442Kek at those horse legs
