There’s a line in fashion that nobody seems to be seeing.
It’s easy to cross and it’s becoming more obvious.
The moment an outfit stops being an outfit and starts looking more like a costume.
Surprisingly, it’s more common with men.
Especially with men who are “into fashion”.
They all start dressing the exact same way.
The same boots. The same trousers. The same cuts and colours.
It stops being a style and almost starts being a uniform.
It’s not about expression anymore.
It’s about fitting into a subculture.
It’s all about what’s new at Zara.
It’s not that it looks bad.
It just looks commercial. Consumerist even.
