Stranger's Reactions to Your Clothes

[Supercilious]

Totally stealing this from Zeitgeist, but it's a great thread over there, and will probably work just as well here.  Just post what people do when they see some of your more, shall we say, risqué clothing.  Compliments, insults, whatever.  I guess I'll kick it off with my one of my very few encounters.

 

 

 

While wearing my Ann D peacoat at the bank

"Did you get that at Banana Republic?" (some random woman)

"No, it's Ann Demeulemeester"

"You should try Banana Republic, it looks like it would be your style"

Keep in mind that I was wearing it with Zamb dnas and a1923 boots

Not sure if I should be insulted or not

lol

I was wearing my cdg skirt once down market street and some random du strolled up to me, bend down and with both hands in a 👈 position..said "boom! I like that" and walked away

but in sf I have a feeling I can wear anything and get away with it; particularly on certain weekends.

including my limi feu dress dubbed the snow white dress by another colleague

[Thatboyo]

a bunch of ppl have asked me where i get my suits/shirts from. They look a bit put off after i tell them it's custom made

[Kaf]

"what the fuck"

[tween_spirit]

"wow I didn't know they still made Big Johnson t-shirts"

[haploid]

co worker in a concerned tone of voice: "(my name), you need to get new shoes (was wearing destroyed vans white sk8 hi's)"

 

boss (seeing my massive pit stains while working in a hot kitchen area for 6 hours out of 9 hour shift): "wow, you're even wearing two shirts"

 

cop while shining flashlight in my eye: "we had a report of a group of three potential burglars dressed in all black walking around at 3 AM. identification, please"

 

bum who was buying a 40 at the liquor store: "are you a scientist? you look like a scientist"

Friend said the padding on my Ploeir suit made me look like David Byrne

[Trouble]

drunk guy at mcdonalds : hey are you a shooter you look like you're going to shoot up a school

I get a kick from the looks I get whilst walking around in public after not shaving, grooming my hair and wearing bummed out clothing and then getting phone calls where I confirm my title as Dr. ... and start talking all technical.

 

Or alternatively sitting next to ppl on the train who think you are some refugee and busting out a scientific paper or book about psychoanalysis.

 

It proves just how fickle and superficial people in big cities are, when their preconceived attitude towards you suddenly changes after they hear you talk.

is it not equally superficial for you to get a kick out of this ridiculous spectacle?

"oh no... don't let my attire fool you. i'm a doctor, not one of those lower class folk"
