Eastern European Street Fashion ?

[Hed_Kandi]

Anyone have any street fashion pics of Eastern European cultures? I'd like to see how different it is from North American and Western European.

no comment. i just don't have the desire to dig around the internet. we had a discussion on this a long time ago, Head her can use a search function. in a few words, people try to dress stylishly (always have) but have very limited financial resources to do so. It's been either nothing or logo-ridden bling bling neauve riche (sp?) . But, it's getting edigier as younger generation is becoming more style aware and financially secure. If stores like LeForm can succeed in Russia and the likes of CDG, Yamamoto and VW have entire boutiques there - it speaks volumes already.

I hold a US passport, if it's any consolation to you . Truth be told, there are some very intelligent and interesting Americans. There could be many more, but the education system and the pop culture are killing this society. It's become mostly up to the parents to educate the child, because the school is not doing it.

well.. for ridiculous reasons, I'm a US citizen.. unfortunately, even though I'm not American, I share dumby syndrome with them

I know, but it's quite a minority, I usually meet cool Americans over the internet, but once you're there, and you talk to people, it's really awkward but like you said, it's what the goverment has done with them so.. screw it

haha

I'm just generalizing since ignorance is collective in the US, I wouldn't include you in the packet, though, you're part of the minority
