Let's get a rick thread going.
None of that goofy shit though, post some wearable fits.
+1 GBP for fits with some color, pic related.
>Asking for non goofy rick owens fits
His whole agenda is goofy. It's his thing
>>9803806
He definitely has a certain aesthetic that many people cling to, however you can easily make some decent fits without the overexaggerated silhouettes that you usually see Rick wearing.
those pants look cool
>>9803826
yeah man, tryna figure out w2c
>>9803835
lol post a fit then, what the hell do you wear? pleated chinos?
>>9803846
No I just don't like seeing Rick degraded to fucking trash levels by hypebeasts.
obligatory
>>9803864
post some of your rick inspo then.
Literally all of this "inspo" looks terrible
>>9803864
>user is a trash hypebeast
>op fit is in any way bad
>>9803872
>wahhh I'm going to complain but do nothing to change anything
>>9803876
That fit isn't that hypebeasty but it is bad
>>9803894
>>9803901
>>9803894
nah
Rick Owens has a well-thought message behind what he promotes and it's a shame seeing people wear the pieces wrong.
>>9803919
isn't that also the guy who created Lease On Life Society?
>>9803924
This
if you watch some of his interviews you get quite a bit of enlightenment
>>9803924
>wearing the pieces wrong
That's the most closeminded and ignorant statement I've ever heard, especially on a fashion forum. You can't wear something you like wrong. Sure, you may not like the way some people style their clothing, doesn't mean they're doing it wrong.
>>9803928
Idk if he started it but i know he's affiliated with it
>>9803929
Finally someone that agrees and don't call me a fuccboi over it. If there is something fashion misses nowadays is a meaning behind it and Rick Owens is honestly one of the best to do it. I agree some of the things he does now and then are outrageous but once you understand what he's trying to accomplish it's pretty easy to admire it. Obviously not everyone gets it, though.
>>9803950
Sorry, it was actually a very harsh statement indeed.
What I'm trying to say is when people don't incorporate Rick Owens pieces into fits that don't fit the aesthetic I always assume they didn't grasp the idea behind. Regardless, looks good.
>>9803802
bravado makes some sick stuff
>>9803960
I also admire that he never makes anything that wont be on sale to the public aswell
>>9803969
he wants anyone of any gender to wear any of his stuff because they like it, pretty much
>>9803818
where can I find similar jacket?
this interview is from only 7mos ago and u can see his apartment in paris
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmyKmIaodyQ
dying of jealousy
>>9803969
He likes to create something new and original while not taking too much influence from others which is what makes it... original.
>>9804001
Yea he had said that he studies himeslf and learns from himself. I think that's pretty cool , a lot of people hate on his shoes and his clothes but i think theyre wonderful. I really want a pair of his shorts or pants but i cant spend that kind of money right now.

>>9804001
>original
I'm not saying he's a hack but, for example, these doesn't strike me as original
>>9804016
Agreed. I was hating alot on Rick Owens back when gothninja was huge. Now I am really tempted to buy something RO.
>>9804025
That is an exception, those are intentionally based on Chuck Taylor's.
Note >He likes to create something new and original while not taking too much influence from others
>>9804026
I have a pair of geos and i love them but i want the look, i love the look.
I just cant afford the look.. ',:^(
>>9804034
Geobaskets can look good outside the "look", though.
>>9804034
Of course, a lot of his stuff can look good outside the look you just have to do it right.
>>9804054
true
they seem quite versatile actually, wish i owned some

Are you talking about that man in the picture? That's not me, bro.
>>9803826
>>9803833
>>9803965
got these pants recently.
first off, they took 4 weeks to actually get to me because of production and then a "delay" for two weeks.
second, when i finally got them they were tagged size XS but fit like a 32 waist, and hips are extremely large. massive pants for me.
third, the quality was very poor for the price, loose stitches, and excess fabric everywhere in the inside.
overall i've gotten a lot of comments/compliments on them but wouldn't again buy anything from bravado
>>9804164
how tall are you?
>>9804164
think I might buy them but tailor the shit out of them to fit like OP's pic, seeing as I can't find the actual OP pants anywhere
Can anyone on /fa/ actually pull this off?
>>9804164
Good lookin out m8
>>9804195
Do you think we just day dream about this shit nigga?
>>9804224
Post fit
>>9804195
Pull off what? Rick? User posted here for a while, so did poet, mamma, twerk, timber, straw, tinny, /fa/cist, theo, teddy, some of qko and birthdays fits, there have been some anons that one guy from SF with the futuristic style. So to answer your question, yes, quite a few.
>>9804241
you've listed people that wore rick but the question was if they could pull it off
forgot we were aiming for at least some colour
>>9804315
...yes...that was the point of my post. They people I listed pulled it off
>>9804329
anyone id this hoodie?
>>9804343
I'll give you one guess...
>>9804343
It's the basic Oversized Hoodie. Was called the Long Jason in older, more fitted versions.
>>9804349
Duck Ovens ?
>>9804349
brilliant.
i was looking for the model of it? doesn't look like a typical jason/gimp or anything i've seen, i'd assume drkshdw to narrow the search a bit more but anyone got anything more specific?
>>9804373
ahh its a different jason version, cheers i will keep an eye out thanks buddy
ok thats all the inspo i have someone else contribute now rick threads are best threads
>>9804373
Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate your presence on /fa/, your input is helpful and you are almost never snarky
Thanks
>>9804399
seconded
blessed are good trips
>>9804399
But /fa/cist is best when hes snarky.
>>9804315
well, pic related is tinfoil and he definitely pulls if off. this is user (>>9804329)
it isnt that difficult to pull off once you learn more about it and actually wear stuff
>>9804399

Display lacing makes me so sad. I never send anything out to a customer without lacing it properly myself.
>>9804977
I don't know why ramones gets a lot of hate. I think they look fine.
>>9804986
What's proper?
>>9804934
i thought the same thing
it looks so good in the closeup and then...
meh
>>9805041
Anything that's not display, as far as I'm concerned.
>>9804986
I didn't know lacing could have such an impact but you're definitely correct. What lacing style would you recommend for Ramones?
Anyone here have Memphis jeans and care to tell me about them, a bit?
>>9805106
Criss cross always looks great on sneakers
>>9804025
How do I tie my shoes like that?

What's the best way to lace Geos? I laced mine like I would any other high top shoe, which leaves enough length for me to wrap the laced around once, but leaves barely enough length to be able to tie the knot. How do I lace them so that I still have plenty of length left after wrapping them around once?
Pic related, should I just tie them tighter?
>>9805359
I prefer to disregard the tie behind method and lace it to be able to not disturb the intended sillohette ( the giant tongue being the main part) here is a picture of how I've laced mine, very rarely I wear them with no laces which is always fun
>>9805398
So you basically just crisscrossed them like I did, just a bit looser. Alright, that's what I figured I'd have to do. Thanks man.
And yeah, I can't wait to go full goof and wear them without laces
you all take rick way too seriously. Just wear the garments how you'd like to and have fun with it. Thats really what ricks garments are about. A playful, architectural take on creating beautiful garments and the really cool community of people who appreciates the garments and the different kinds of ways to wear them
>>9805398
I wear mine with no laces.
Always got people asking me if my shoes not falling off while walking.

just to clarify the rick owens ethos or watev. He doesn't care what you do as long as you're not a pretentious, elitist fashion nerd. He is a loving being. He'd probably enjoy it if u went to an orgy in his clothes.
>>9804164
holy shit those pants actually made me gag. Get the real drkshdw cargos. Damn.
>>9804343
old drkshdw hoodie from like 2009 ish. I don't think it had a name? Not the gimp or the jason.
>>9805138
What he said was logically valid.
>>9803802
Mhm, that top's not Rick, is it? Can anybody ID?
>>9807356
Bumping thread for love of Rick.
I'll post some links to great Owens ethos stuff in a few hours.
>>9807396
there's not a complex rick ethos he's just a nice guy.
>>9804025
It might not be original but the adapted design is easily recognised as rick. He put his own style into something which is extremely normal, which i think is admirable
>>9803911
Is that Knochensack and Mamma in a passionate manhug?

>>9803835

best rick laces on black upper white solo geo's? black laces or white
http://www.grailed.com/listings/81154-rick-owens-geobaskets
Legit check? the no dustbag makes me a bit skeptical
>>9803802
hi guys i just met trick owens
>>9807857
whichever you like best
>>9807356
w2c khaki/light brown rick cargo pants like the color in OP?
>>9803814
W2c grey undershirt?
>>9808222
it's a grey rick tank, couldn't give you the exact model name or anything, but it shouldn't be hard to find through google. If you do get one, just know they rip very easily.
>>9808250
Thanks I'll look for the model, if it rips it will just fit he aesthetic even more
>>9807857
I do black on mine. White is so common that the black helps them standout a little bit from other pairs.
>>9807924
Those are fine man, the leather looks on point. The guy honestly probably just wanted to keep the tote bag, because it's cool.
Not sure if I should cop the gimp, mountain, or Jason hoodie. Any suggestions?
>>9808367
Jason>gimp>mountain
>>9808370
Any particular reason you prefer the Jason?
>>9808354
yeah im really tempted to cop but just bought a blk dnm jacket so dont want to spunk another $700
Sizing on geos? Usually around a 10
>>9808546
You can size down i believe as the toe box is roomy

Who is the best minimal designer?
Kind of of like Rick Owens without all the grimdark, hightops, post-functional, weird fitting, edgy elements.
>>9808603
Jil Sander
>>9808603
You sound way too new. Don't post just lurk. To answer your question Rick dies do a ton of minimal stuff but yes he does have some more involved designs. You might also be involved in Helmut Lang. Or if you want an entirely different more distressed look go with brands like (Carpe, LUC, IS, L&F) basically anything of or relating to Carpe Diem is fairly minimal but has some amazing cuts to not fall into mediocrity.
>>9808603
Gap
>>9804164
when will they learn
>>9808603
That's a tough question to answer because different designers do minimal in different ways. You could argue that Italo Zuchinelli does minimal really well, but his silhouettes are usually very athletic, very muscular and he's been playing with texture quite a bit lately.
You could say that Rad Hourani is minimal, but his focus is purely on unisex styling and he has always had a penchant for lots of boxy, layered silhouettes with abstracted takes on traditional garments.
Phoebe Philo had a reputation as a minimalist, too, but she's obviously been incorporating a lot more detail and textile work into recent collections. But there are still really masterfully cut, clean lines in a lot of the pieces when taken apart from the full collections.
You can even argue that designers like Halston were minimalists. With no facings, supple fabrics, and unrestrictive constructions, his jersey and ultra suede dresses and jumpsuits represented a distinctly "unfashioned" fashion in stark contrast to many of the conventions of dressmaking that dominated the era before him.
>>9808624
embarrassing post
>>9808657
never. they will never learn.
I think the problem >>9808676 takes with >>9808624 is that the recommendations seem very scattershot.
Rick does minimal, yes. Lots of straight, severe lines right alongside very soft, draped ones.
Modern Helmut menswear (as done by Plokhov) is very anti-minimal. It's severe but loaded with lots of textures and seams and darts and pockets and fabric combinations and plays on opacity, weight, finish. Cut and sew jersey is probably the most minimal stuff and a some of it is starting to be made in the US. Not great, but good if you aren't a big sipper on the Kool-Aid and just want something natural and comfortable, with one or two interesting details. Lang-era had many more minimal moments; anything bandage-y, jersey with cut-outs, the very sharp (almost boxy) tailoring.
Carpe's treatment of fabric was intense and thorough, but the approach was always minimal in a way.
LUC is less about minimalism and more about technique, but the best results tend to be minimal.
I've never had a strong read on what in the IS lineup I like or would wear. Never really felt much appeal beyond the frequently anatomic edge, which is appealing, but never did it for me. I know what it's on other people's radar, I guess.
L&F is usually fussy. The restrictive palette dominates a lot of it, but there's usually at least a few ideas going on in one piece. Lots of fumbles, but there are times when the collar and fabric and length and drape are all going at the same time and she finds a nice balance between them.
So, lots of mention, but not all of it related.

>>9808603
>>9808622
>>9808624
>>9808676
>>9808829
Might not be what he meant but I think of minimal as being the greatest possible correlation between high fashion and normie. Being so reserved that most people find it interesting if not inoffensive, while getting props from those in the know.
In the other arts it seems to come across that way. FF should weigh in again if he has anything to add on that, amazing posts as usual.
>>9808878
Oh that changes a lot. Go with Patrick Ervell or Schneider they have fantastic quality but very normie looking designs.
>>9808875
it's not a girly ring. Expensive though.
>>9808829
Can you talk some more about IS? I've heard about them but know nothing about them.
And what's L&F?
>>9808891
i want something like it but i cant find shit.
I've looked so hard for rings like this that arent over 200 but i know nothing about rings

Eh, he's a very likeable trip, unlike almost all of the others and has more of s reason to trip. I wouldn't be surprised if those are genuine posts.
>>9805359
I don't lace mine through the top 2 holes an definitely don't tighten them. let the tongue fall forward freely like the dude below your post
Reckon geos's could work with a biker jacket? i know they look great with rick leather jackets but im thinking more along the traditional asymetrical zip bikers
>>9809345
Tight top and loose/drapey bottom? Doesn't look like it would work. Maybe if you wear jeans and tightly lace your geos it would look nice.
But what do I know? I'm a fuccboi.
>>9809368
yeah i was thinking it might be too bottom heavy.
Better stick to my drapey parka and bomber then
>>9809372
Don't be discouraged, it could still work. Imagine pic related wearing a biker leather jacket.
>>9809398
Yeah this is what I was thinking, Def think all black would be the best to pair with a biker
