so true, i find it a bit odd how they keep this unbelievably huge smile like 'i dont know where i am, but i'm having a great time'-->B) .slightly on topic: looking at this thread i've noticed very few people are actually europeans, most of them look like tourists..japanese and american tourists mainly

^^^At least in my pics that is so true, you know why? The italians way to dress is so not interesting...
MaLkAv said:and we are sooo concerned about griffe/label... even the disgusting ones like Richmond or Lonsdale or Nike are must-have for the masses
I wish Italy was inhabited by Japanese people, that would be so much funnier
I think no one beats the Japanese in label worship. They account for almost half of LV's global sale.
pretty old article

iSpot said:That's so true... I 'm living in Rome right now and the dressing sense really sucks here. All these girls with straight hair, huge sunglasses, baggy pants and the latest Miss Sixty tops drive me a bit crazyI think they are somewhat still stuck in that '80's' phase. And in the highstreet shops you see cheap Roberto Cavalli copies everywhere... I so much began to appreciate fashion in my homecountry/town
(of course there are exceptions)
btw in Holland/Belgium 'Londsdale' is getting a bad reputation as it worn by racists (the letters nsda would refer to hitler's nsdap) and in Italy everyone is wearing it
Yes. But Lonsdale is mostly worn by "truzzi"
"Truzzo" is a word that designates fashion-unaware narrow-minded most-of-the-time-ignorant people... Also, most of neo-nazis and neo-fascist wear Lonsdale bomber. And ultras too (ultras are the football addicted... like hooligans... in Italy they are mainly from extreme-right-wing).
I don't know why it's so wide spread among this kind of people... it's strange but that's it!
Oh, and I've read about Eastpack backbag
Even here, you're perfectly right... EVERY SINGLE boy/girl/child has one of its own... I always loathed those bags 'cause they are too mainstream... until my grandma gave me one as a gift for sure she was worried about her nephew not having one Wow I really love this smile:
<--- It looks pretty much like me!whizkit said:
I already knew that... but still... try and browse a little this thread and compare it to the "japanese street style" one... I'm not saying that they are not brand-addicted, just that they often mix things up in a strange way (at least strange from my perspective).
Anyway trust me, the average japanese is better than the average italian
(and I AM italian)
No!! no, wait! I had an Invicta bag when I was like 8 years old
"de puta madre" that's the worst trash I've ever witnessed in my whole life... but there are quite a few brands like that... you can usually see them on people with oufits like "nike silver", denim (with horrible washes), plenty of gel on their hairs and huge sunglasses.
actually I think that the denim you dress speaks of you in a very clear and distinct way
the average guy isn't very fashinable indeed
anyway I think that the problem might be that younger people look at MTV veejays or soccer player like a "successful person you wanna look like", and so to conform to that standard they try to dress like them, but soccer players are like cavemen when talking about fashion...
anyway, why are you here in Italy? Erasmus/study? or work?
ps: mi vengono i brividi solo a pensarci!
whoa I'm addicted to those smiles

Well, I can say this much....if you go down South, cowboy boots and a cowboy hat will always be in style 
Put on a plaid flannel shirt (pink for me) and get a bit of a 'twang and you're one fashionable southerner
And, I admit it.....I love 'em

southern us? maybe in Georgia, North Mississippi, or North Alabama but on the gulf coast it's all about preppy chic- searsucker and madras with polos!!
Just out of curiousity, does anyone here have any photos from Austria? Or Germany I suppose. I'm going to be in Graz and Vienna this summer and I'm quite curious about the trends. I'll be wearing fairly basic stuff myself (no, not Nikes and sweatpants, don't worry), but I'd like to just get a sense of how people dress there.
