One can explain the concept of averages by a picture of McLovin and that guy.

Isn't looking to 90s fits just another trend though? I assume that the cast of friends were dressed pretty trendily for the time?

I ask because sometimes I wish I didn't have to get all my shirts tailored to fit slim so if MLI is right I could save a bunch of trips to the tailor. Plus my mum will probably stop telling me that I look like I'm wearing girl's clothes.

yeah but I grew up in the '90s and never changed. The thing is '90s tailors took inspiration from '40s stuff so I'm personally looking for something classic that will never date. The stuff now looks to the `60s I guess but personally I think the `60s sucks.

There's nothing wrong with wearing clothes from, or being influenced by a paticular period in time but, when you're in your 30's and still wear the same shit you did when you were a teenager well....... Oops

Totally understandable. You'd have been laughed out of the building when you tried to claim for those £600+ Vis.

I guess I should say hi, because it's my first 'regular' post here despite the classifieds.
Last year I developed a serious Moncler addiction. Maybe it's not much, but what bothered me was the intensity- what you can see was bought in 12 month time span (+ 6 more jackets and vests that I already sold).
Totally ruined my budget as you'd imagine.. and in the same time I'm a Diesel jeans/Visvim/Supreme addict.

Yeah sounds awkward, I know, but you can actually make it work.

MLI bums shit from the 90's. Nearly everyone else thinks it looks shit. The end.
