Fashion is what's available, style is what you choose to wear...

Personally believe fashion is understanding the fundamentals and how to play with them vs. personal style is taking the fundamentals that work for you and leaving the ones you don’t like for other people to rock

Reminds me of a old saying " Form = Function". I always saw Fashion as a collection of Cultures and subcultures that serve a designed function/A list of fundamentals needed to survive the environment. With style being a person adding ontop of that more functions/fundamentals to achieve more than just survival.

When you reference fundamentals, could you expand on what you mean, if possible? I've been interested in my own personal style since I was a kid. Growing up skating has had a large stylistic influence on top of my meager economic means for a long time. But I don't think I've ever had a period until very recently in which I want to intentionally analyze my style, likes, or study any sort of fundamental 'rules' to effective outfits. So, long story long, I'm just curious how I can start practicing fashion fundamental ideas or just do more specific research. Thanks for reading!

its mostly about personal branding, How you wanna sell your self image. Stylish and Fashionable people sell different traits when trying to build trust, professionalism or creativity in different fields of work. Good or Bad is typically determined when you dress the wrong way to sell desired traits in a field you want to make a profit in. An example is like a politician dressing like a clown while giving pollical speeches LOL. Might look stylist but...

It's not the case that people want to feel better about themselves; it's that they want to feel better about themselves truly. Style is a reflection of the self, where fashion isn't, so people want to feel that an authentic expression of self is more legitimate and respectable. I would say that objectively it is, and if it is not, that it should be; and where it is not “fashion” is made all the worse for it.

If I am being respectful of other people and their expressions I will not automatically decide that they are just hacks. Individuals are innocent until they are proven guilty.

I think of culture as community and in the form of fashion, the community overall decides what clothing are formidable for survival in the settled environment. That shared Cultural fashion then gets marketed as a product for tourism, that supports the local economy. I think at the point it becomes a problem, is when that fashion evolves into a trend to the point where people dress a way that endangers their survival. Like going mountain climbing in the latest fashion trend just to look cool despite the danger.

I think you nailed it, I'm grateful to people that are the early adopters because then more iteration of said pieces are made available. Which often means they are A. Available in a size appropriate to my body type and B. Available to my budget. Plus there are so many juxtaposing trends and styles running at the same time now and I need help filtering through them. It was a lot simpler a few decades back. Much less variety back then.

​@@adrianghandtchi1562can you give an example on the preppy aesthetic?

I really like Madeline's Pendelton perspective on personal style vs fashion (she is a fashion designer, quite popular on TikTok). She says that fashion trends are responses to what's currently happening in the world/in pop culture etc (you know, for example when inflation grows, usually high heels are back) and fashion is a visual way of communicating with each other. She says everyone already has personal style because by choosing what you like and what you don't like you filter the clothes you gonna wear. And here comes what you mentioned in the video - if you tried many styles, you have a better idea of what you like, and you are not afraid to risk and combine items from different styles or trends. I think people should focus more on trying out new things, rather than looking for a personal style. Personal style will come naturally, with the exposure and experience.

I remember when every “teaching style” channel recommended double monkstraps. Double monks were timeless, went with everything, and never went out of style. When was the last time we saw them recommended?

We have completely opposite styles but I resonate with your style and what you said here. I've basically accepted that I dress like an elderly man who somehow gets Paris Fashion Week lookbooks due to a mixup at the post office. Cozy and comfy with some inspiration from what's trendy. You have to get exposure to trends and learn what you like and don't like through experience. Like anything else, you have to practice. Though if skinny jeans and slim fits come back, I don't think I'll be doing that.

I saw this article and thought it was great; fashion trends are there as a sort of mirror. We can see ourselves relatively using the mirror. A unique outfit exist because there is trend

"I have a very unique style" - People who have been wearing nothing but band t-shirts, hoodies, jeans/cargo pants and white sneakers every day everywhere between ages 13-45.

That's why i gravitate toward dressing elegant or casual-elegant. It's classic, it's comfortable it always looks good. I experiment with more 1930-40 fit from time to time, to spice things up.

Great video, Animal Rescue! I've a friend who constantly tells me to dress myself up in brighter colours and in more "normal" streetwear clothing, all HM/Uniqlo fit kinda stuff. For a while I explored that with her advice and bought a few pieces, but while they look OK on me I always have a feeling that I'm just "wearing clothes". It was a good lesson exploring new styles, and whilst I still wear those clothes for family visits, I've taken it in as more of a reminder to try out new things but not go head first into whatever people tells me look good, and that the important thing is that I like the combination of what I'm wearing.

a lot of inspiring insights! probably even struggling to admit a certain involvement with fashion trends may keep us away from experimenting and having fun with our clothing, while in reality it's not about being outside of trends to stand out, but rather building a conscious style that works and makes us confident thanks Ant as always for the interesting topics !

I just buy things that have colors in places that look good from a distance, match with other items I have, and have finishes that keep me reaching for them, and lasting for years. You pretty much just have to make fits that look good while squinting, feel good up close, and create harmony with other pieces. You can then use the “anything can work” to randomly combine pieces from multiple styles you own.

Super well done vid! I went through a phase of not being into fashion, and coming back to it has made me realize a lot of the times I was dressing on trend. Now I take elements from a couple years back and incorporate with trends I think are cool now to come up with fits. I definitely think that trendy fashion is a good starting point to developing personal style. It’s cool cause I don’t dress super technical, but I really enjoy your take on it and have incorporated some technical pieces because of it.

Pretentious video title suggestion: "A Hegelian Dialectic of Style vs Fashion in a Late Stage Capitalistic Society"

I really got into style myself last year and then went to integrate fashion into it more but realized some days, yeah, I just enjoy going for something comfy and unusual like looking a little ratty or just wearing my clothes how I like to instead of going with what would be considered widely accepted.

I just want my clothes to compliment each other, and then I'm good tbh.

I'm pushing 40 and was just minding my damn business in the park playing Pokemon Go with the wife when suddenly a pack of zoomers on skateboards & scooters started complimenting my "Mad sick drip for real for real." I thought they were joking. The fit? Just the same comfy beige Condor Tactical Sentinel cargo pants I've worn for about a decade now, my Goofy Movie Powerline tour shirt, paired with my trusty Nike Freerunner, my Twitchcon 2017 fanny pack/bum bag, a dad hat, my aviators, and one of several shemaghs I've worn since my Army days. That's how I found out gorpcore and shirts that go hard were both a thing and that either fashion has gone full stupid or I'm just so damned stylish that I was 15 years ahead of the curve & just had to wait for everyone else to catch up. I'll go with the latter. Also I used to buy New Balance like 15 years ago just because they were cheaper than other brands & seemed to stand up to 2-8 mile runs 5 days a weak. Still think they're ugly. LOL.

Fantastic. My only additional thought is that fashion can supply new concepts & fresh aesthetic grist for the personal style mill. I follow fashion so my style can evolve. I do have moments where I spontaneously want an item or aesthetic that doesn't exist yet, but more often, I see something new & click with & look to incorporate it into my existing style. I will say that as I get older, & see more trends come around again & again, it gets easier to accept that some preferred personal styles are out of fashion at the moment. They'll be back. I don't need to cling.

I've always said I love when the things I like are hot, cause that means they're actually being sold. You've got no idea how hard it was to find things I like before semi-baggy finally came back, the boxy tops etc. I'm genuinely hardly concerned with others' perceptions of me, my outfit is something I put together for the same reason I'd make some music or dress up a video-game character, and a lot of these outfits/tracks/characters, nobody but me will ever see, it's just there to please my senses and further inspire me. BUT, everything you're passionate about is usually better when shared with others that share a passion for it. I now get more looks from people who may largely just be interested in it for the sake of following trends itself, but let's not forget these trends also put the lens on it for those who would genuinely love it for it's own sake, after being exposed properly. Even those pressured by what others see them as, this may be an opportunity to get comfy wearing things. And, hey, there's bound to be trendy people, might as well have them looking pretty cool to you, right?

Damn, I really needed to hear that styling in a trendy way isn’t bad. I shit on trends pretty often & my favorite fit as of recently uses a trendy “technique” if you will & I felt shattered cuz it’s such a good fit but it’s trendy. I literally just folded my jacket inwards to make it look cropped like the gorpcore kids

I realize at my core I’m not necessarily stylish or fashionable; however I do enjoy the conversation. I do have a personal style, and have been complimented on it. Sometimes it’s almost as if they don’t realize what they’re complimenting. But let’s talk about you. You give a great presentation, have a wicked sense of humor, and if a style channel should make it, yours is one of them. Good luck!

I want to congratulate you Antwon, You continue produce the only very well structured arguments on KZread Almost a scientific approach i love it

This is great- I really like the reference to detectives of noir cinema- like yes they look super cool, but if you dressed like that on the daily, the biggest thing it would say about you is that you lack social awareness. As a fashion photographer, I don't just want people to think I look cool, I want people to know I am aware of the state of fashion- both in the moment and in the larger trend cycle. Its that social awareness that I am advertising with the way I dress.

Wow thanks for the credits!❤️❤️❤️

I agree with a lot of this and have taken the steps myself. Got into clothing through fashion and trends to just try a bit of everything. After several years of trial and error I've landed somewhere that feels like me and will really only hop on trends if I actually like it and it feels like me. 😅

This vid makes me miss your lets discuss videos. antwon, you can do no wrong, pls keep making da video good goods

Honestly the most efficient way to look cool is to incorporate timeless classics and also “badass” pieces that you can pull off and just basics with maybe a little trends. Cowboy boots, a biker jacket, a canvas vest. Army fatigues. Would I wear all of these in one outfit? No. Would I even wear two of these at once? Again, no. But having one of these pieces mixed into an otherwise normal outfit is an easy way to look cool as fuck. And basic shit like gold or silver chains for accessories.

Thanks for sharing, Assassin's Crimson Dagger. I agree, the Diving board example brings the "Learning Zone model" and "Scaffolding" teaching approach to mind. In this KZread Comment, I will outline the parallels between the Design Methodology approach to developing a product to this journey of building an Outfit that is true to ourselves at that point in time. During my Product Design education, my professors have told us that we tend to start off with our Intuition of how to approach a problem *or in this case* dress and then begin Ideating solutions or approaches from a Brainstorming approach or a Cataloging practice. From our candidate designs (in this case outfits or aesthetics to draw inspiration from) we begin to develop Simple models for how to perform Abstraction: breaking a very complex problem into small, manageable steps. This can look like taking a complex mechanical system and identifying the smaller systems within it, and parsing them as a collection of Canonical physical models. Or, the massive undertaking of dressing well in case we run into our crush. How? By Assembling the different Components (e.g. socks, footwear, pants, etc.) to develop a Cohesive outfit that Communicates our swag :3 . After that, we develop our more Detailed models, for us it would be Finite Element Analysis and perform calculations and simulations in Computer-Aided Design software that would provide heatmaps for the Stress and Displacement of our component. For fashion, it would be exercises for how to implement this new part of our wardrobe or approach to dressing and making decisions based on those simulations or when we wear it in the controlled environments (aka our rooms). Functional Prototypes are us testing the real thing, and learning from those tests to see what worked and what didn't. For fashion, it can be wearing the Prototype outfit in public, or in a social situation, but most importantly in a place outside of the vacuum of our own habitat. From that test, we can learn what worked, what we felt during the experience, and start to develop Frameworks for the data from our Test. From analyzing our Frameworks, we develop Findings that show us more macro-level trends based on those decisions we made, which, in turn, inform us as we continue to make decisions moving forward. Throughout this process, we're always going back and forth between the different steps, that's what Iteration is. When we develop a Functional Prototype, we might test it and have it fail and realize that the Simple Models weren't accurate for this Prototype, and go back and re-calculate for the Detailed Models etc. The Design process isn't a circular loop between the different stages; it is an approach to visit the different "Sites of Grace" that Design can help us navigate. Finally, we come to Communicating what we learned throughout our Design process in a report, and in the case of Fashion, we can construct a video-essay about the topic or about the timeline for how we came to the conclusions or Findings that we arrived at. I really appreciate your channel, and your humor, and I hope that anyone who reads this has a great day :)

I also think style is catering to yourself and maybe your niche of people. Sometimes even going against what's fashionable in favour of what you truly like. While fashion is not only catering to yourself by looking good and up to date but also catering to the big masses and maybe striving to have a higher status and social acceptability through it. Both is has it's perks but I feel that when people get older they develop a sense of personal style automatically while cycling through the trend cycles. How many people still wear skinny jeans because they like them? A lot actually. And I think hanging on to things that are currently at the lowest point of being fashionable is actually really cool. I'll wear skater skirts till I die because I like them so much but cottage core also revived my love for flowy dresses and y2k actually wants to make me buy a low rise jeans, even without a flat tummy. I still have my out of fashion staples in my closet and wear them regularly but I pair them with new stuff that will become staples too, if I grow fond of them. And funny enough I always find elements again and again in every trend cycle that really fit my personal style and reflect the generell vibe I established for myself.

I dont care about style or fashion. I like wearing what I think looks cool, or is comfy. but its nice to keep up with fashion to see if theres anything new that looks cool.

Where i live we can't barely use a single shirt without being uncomfortable from the heat, most of the time and mainly at home is just shirtless with shorts. I like the content and the theory but when you can barely use anything other than shirt and shorts, it is very hard to have any style other than minimalistic without being very unconfortable.

I reckon The Curated Closet would be a good guide to going through this process even for menswear.

One has style, and one wears fashion ✨

Re: Outlier Bombflows.......I see frayed cuffs in your future...... (but I am sure can do a neat hem stitch)

I view style as the sum of its parts in a way, like an equation. Being stylish is about following rules of a cohesive uniform look while simultaniously breaking them for exaggeration and experimentation. An example of this would be the rule of something that is "unflattering". The style of silhouettes, color pallettes, proportions. It's about what pieces you pair with what to create a look that embodies you. ALOT of fashionable people do not possess ANY personal style because nothing they chose is for them, its for others.

It usually comes from people hating what's popular. It makes them feel unique when they don't like what everyone else does. Usually because they don't have the money to take part in fashion trends which is fine it doesn't make you special.

You misunderstand what is meant by style. It's not what you wear, but the way that you wear it. To quote Cary Grant, "I believe men's clothes-like women's-should attract attention to the best lines of a man's figure and distract from the worst."

What are the gray shoes in the back to the right at the start of the video ? Looks nice.

11:01 "meet palpatine" got me😂

tbh it is fair to differentiate fashion from trends even though the two are inherently intertwined already because of the huge market forces behind clothing. when it comes to "perosnal style" it really is more often than not just following certain "micro fashion" and its own evolution, and indeed trends, trough the ages and even in the slow moving side the type of clothes that is being sold changes meaning that some cuts and materials are inherently going to look old and communicate different "vibe" after a decade or so. that being said, as someone who does bit of art outside of clothing things like colour theory and how gaze flows trough the whole ouftit from duller and simpler to busier / more vibrant spots is IMO rather universal no idea how I ended up here given that my "style" is what ever mom bought me when I were teen and pass me downs from grandparents and drift stores with ~~poorly~~ visibly patched holes. it is purely utilitarian but I guess it does get heavy punk vibe going on.

hey antwon can we see a vid about bags specifically messengers

I think the terms need to defined slightly differently. Fashion is more about adaptation. It’s what you “fashion” for yourself, like a suit of armour. It’s about using materials or cuts (or even trends, for that matter) to meet your needs. Style is literally “the instrument” itself. Style refers to the unifying core instrument or aesthetic that one uses to express oneself. Eliminating redundancies and overlaps between the two. Your style is the main tool that unifies your aesthetic, and fashion is the way you modify or upgrade that tool. I think the most important thing to note about all this is that ALL OF IT is external. You can have multiple styles and have different ways to fashion those styles, but all of it will mean nothing if there’s no genuine person behind it.
