To not really get why people don’t like clothes?

I don't wear bras. I wear what is comfortable. I'd rather feel and be comfortable and have someone think I dont care.

I care very much for clothes. I care that I can always wear a pair of Levi’s, a long sleeved black tee shirt and a good leather jacket. I don’t care for fashion. I think when people say they don’t care about clothes, they mean they don’t care for fashion.

But it’s very enjoyable. Maybe not important to you, but very important to me.

l feel uncomfortable all day if a colour doesn’t match properly.

Because we have more important things to do than work out outfits and better things to spend money on

I can’t be bothered simply I’m not driven by appearance beyond being presentable

That’s sad, you’re worth more than your appearance

🤣 is there anyone who actually gives a fuck about anyone else’s “statement”??! You’re clearly young enough to think that other people actually really notice you. Most people are either self involved, or self aware enough to realise that no one else is looking at them, they’re thinking about their own lives.

It’s nice to appreciate a nice aesthetic and if you like to do that through your clothes then go ahead. That’s pretty much where it ends.

I cannot find anything that I don't look shit in. I'm short, morbidly obese and old. Most of the stuff I do see is really cheap quality even FatFace, M&S, Next. I need a new winter coat and everything I try on looks like a sack of potatoes on me. And the quality and poor fit was still there 5 years ago before lockdown and I put on 3 grand pianos in weight working from home, but at least I could find stuff I didn't look quite so shit in

I am with you on that.

You could see me wearing a sequin maxi skirt and a soft jumper, a reiss sharply cut dress, a tshirt with a big "fuck you" written in the back and ripped jeans... I can even exercise in sports bra and sport leggings - the ones that shape your butt in the best way, or a baggy ripped t-shirt and shorts 😂

So of course your clothes do give an impression of who you are, but it's only a small shapshot. Depends on the mood.

I've just googled Plumo. I'm as impressed with it as I am with Toast. I prefer a very small proportion of the Shite Stuff offer.

Must be difficult, I can only sympathise 😕

Never knew until I had my DS that fir the first 3 years I would never be wearing a completely clean top😂 toddlers just know when you've put something clean on and they are ready and eager to cover it in all sorts😅 that's why I'm always in the same outfit of jeans and a plain t shirt. No point dressing up

You've obviously never been 4ft 11, size 20 with very little money, (or female.) I can tell you, those things together make it incredibly hard to find clothes that fit or look nice. Even work uniform is pretty impossible. Nothing looks right or fits properly.

I have nice clothes. I feel not correct in them. I end up changing into sporty leggings and an oversized sporty sweat top because I spend a lot of time doing sporty activities. This feels like an expression of me, yet you'd see it as unstylish and generic and not making an effort.

I like my clothes and enjoy choosing/buying/wearing new outfits. But I don’t necessarily think I express myself through my clothes. What does a chunky knit, pair of leggings and leather boots say about me, I wonder? Or a simple strappy midi dress in summer? I like to feel nice in my clothes but wouldn’t say I express myself with them.

And you're clearly not understanding that most people don't give a damn what you think of them as you walk past?

You can tell if someone is rich or not by if they wear expensive clothes… but make it deep.

Jenny Joseph-
"When I am an old woman I shall wear purple... "

From the age of 14 to 16 I cared. Then hippies happened and I started wearing whatever I liked.
Now I am old I still do - I wear whatever I think suits me, not whatever is in fashion.
I love bright colours, so do my family. My daughter's wedding was fun, DH wore a bright red suit, DS had a blue one which he had embroidered himself.
A guy in the supermarket a few months back said I looked like Grayson Perry (I was wearing a very colourful raincoat from Boden). I thanked him for the complement.
Life shouldn't be drab. Brighten up everyone's day.

Bullshit. I've got two full DJs, cummerband and bowtie included, sitting in my wardrobe right now that I've worn on numerous occasions. I've got a number of quality, fitted suits with nice white linen shirts and polished shoes to match. I've also got a well-worn set of bike leathers and crash helmet. I've even got a kilt for my family's tartan plus sporran etc. And right now I'm wearing an obscure band t-shirt, a hoodie and a tired, but delightfully comfy, pair of jeans plus fluffy socks.

If the first time you'd met me I'd been wearing a different one of those outfits you'd have judged me differently. Yet every time it'd still be me just in a different outer wrapper.

I don't think it's as simple as that. I've never heard of Plumo but had a look and they've got a sale on just now. So if I clean up on their sale items, how could you possible discern any of those things from looking at me decked out head-to-toe in sale items from Plumo as opposed to someone wearing White stuff?

People do tend to mix and match as well, I think few people buy all their clothes from one brand. Someone wearing a White stuff top and a pair of Plumo bottoms - what does that say about their outlook, lifestyle, income, occupation, etc?

You don't understand OP.

I don't give a fuck what you - or anyone - thinks about me.

I wear clothes that are comfortable, appropriate for the weather and occasion, and clean.

That's all.

You enjoy wearing clothes that express something. Good for you, crack on.

Judging is maybe the wrong word.

Assessing or decoding is better.

But you are choosing what to wear via finance. Even if it’s not what you want to wear.

Yes but it's not accurate.

I don't wear the clothes I want to wear. My choice is limited by my budget. It is limited by the clothes available in the shops because a lot of what is available to buy is poor quality and poor design and style. So what I'm wearing is make do stuff and nothing to do with what I would like to wear.

I think that you judging people by what they are wearing is the epitome of what is wrong with today's world where everything is to with obsession about appearance. And nothing to do with real worth.

Compare and contrast: "Because it's easier to sum up by race. It says more than other things. I can usually sum up people by what what race they are pretty quickly."

Do you not see that what you're saying about clothes is pretty much the definition of the word prejudice? You're pre-judging someone's entire character based on a single aspect of their life. You might pretend to yourself that you're not judging but you absolutely are - you're pre-judging someone based on your personal biases about just one thing that characterises them.

No they aren’t.

Someone who shops in White Stuff is going to be very different from someone who shops in Plumo. Different outlooks, lifestyles, disposeable incomes, occupations could be assessed from these
