How has your 'look' changed over the years?
 

How has your choice of garms altered over the years?

Age 0-5 God only knows.

Age 5-10: Had a bit of a Damien from the Omen thing going on.

Age 10-15: Football casual to the max: Pringle jumpers; Lyle and Scott rollnecks; Farahs; Nike Wimbledons. I looked like a teenaged Jimmy Tarbuck!

Age 15-20: Got into 'weird' music. This meant jeans, DMs and band T shirt.

Age 20-25: Pretty much the same as 15-20, but instead of a SY T shirt, probably something like an Unsane one.

Age 25-30: Dabbled in Electronic/Techno/Jungle so T shirts got a bit baggier.

Age 30-Now: Similar to 15-25 but with a few more egg stains on the T Shirts these days.

i become more handsome each day :p

I don't think my style of dress has changed a great deal since I was 18. No longer have a biker jacket, but that's about it for change. Ah yes, haircut now short these days, as opposed to halfway-down-my-back long.

0-5 Naked/Paisley underground printed dungarees
5 -10 Turtle-neck fest
10-15 sports casual

15-20 The trannie/punk years. Red or bleached hair, paint-sprayed leather jackets, military boots, flannel shirts, Sonic Youth/ Velvet Underground t-shirts etc.

20-25 Sportwear, 70's leather jacket, trainers, white or check shirts

30- Now Tramp chic

Age 0-6: Mostly hand-me-downs from my cousins, so in pictures I look like I was born 10 years earlier than I actually was.

7-14: The most important thing to me was basketball, I played it all the time, so I dressed like I played basketball. Gym shorts, shirts from basketball camp/anything related to the Bulls, Air Jordans. Often mistaken for a boy early on. In school we had a uniform though.

High school: Jeans, band shirts and other tops of interest. In school I still had to wear a uniform.

College/Now: Nothing of what I used to wear, except jeans. I have no attachment to my clothes. I certainly don't have a look. I'm home most of the time so I don't have to think about it too much. When I do go out I try not to look like a slob.

0-5 vaseline and baby powder (i'm half kidding), at times rather long curly hair

5 -10 catholic school uniform then just t-shirts, super short hair, starting to get overweight, oval wire rims

10-15 preppy and nerdy stuff i think, really getting overweight

15-20 crappy band t-shirts and more nerd shirts, peak weight, started growing out my hair my senior year, switch to plastic wayfarer style frames

20-now better band t-shirts, sweaters, jeans, green plastic frames, varied hair lengths (nothing too short though), highlights at the moment, varied facial hair, and have lost 30 pounds plus since ATP and still dropping, literally the healthiest weight i have been at in about 15 years

5-12 anything from k-mart, i loved pipeline.
i use to go to primary school in baggy green pants with a chain and long hair with an undercut and a basketball hat glued to my head

13-14 skate clothes, backwards cap, chain again, skate shoes, skate brand top and gelled hair with a spiked up fringe (embarrasing)

15 short dreads, jeans, and a skate shirt

16-17 black band shirts, med length dreads, ripped jeans, cardigans

18-now home made shirts, home made band shirts, jeans ripped or what ever i have. basic shoes, odd jumpers and long hair about shoulder length

first years I looked like a poor little kid.
next few years I wore what fit.
Then I went a little goth.
then I straightened out.
Now it's tight jeans and t-shirts.

Hardly at all !

I've always been a jeans, T-shirt and sneakers kinda fellow. Basic.

Other fashion trends have never really stuck with me. I did have ONE embarrassing 'trendy' period though....the 'leisure suit'. But I only wore it once or twice....rare...very rare picture...1975.



And my basic lifelong uniform ! Hahahaa.....this was 1962-63. Blurry, sorry.

Same as ever but fatter.

everybody who sees my school credentials say that it looks like a slideshow for a fugitive since each one is different.

as for fashion, i really don't think i've changed that much, black band shirts, jeans, tennis shoes...

0-5 Hippie dresses, dungarees

5-10 hippie dresses, tye dyed clothing galore

10-15 band shirts, flaired cord trousers, doc martin boots

15-18 cord trousers, pretty tops, converse

I wear less black than I once did, but apart from that my uniform has always been jeans, t-shirt, trainers or converse, with sweatshirt or jacket added during winter months. Shirts get added into the mix from time to time too.

0-5 knitted jumpers/colourful dungaress/silly hats
5-10 normal sweat shirts/colourful dungarees/silly hats
10-15 colourful dungarees/jeans/silly hats

0-9 fucked up socialist-regime outfits that my mom has given me because no other stuff was available in the stores
9-13 fucked up non-socialist-regime outfits (after the Revolution) that my mom has given me
13-14 Green Day T-Shirts and hoodies (yes, yes, puberty was cruel to me)
15-19 skate fashion - baggy ripped pants, big hoodies, skate shoes (Etnies has been my favourite shoe brand since then)
20-26 as above, but a little bit more decent - non-ripped baggy jeans, T-shirts with collars, overally a little bit more formal style

0-6 - Anything my mum bought me
7-8 - Horrible lime green Gola tracksuits
9-10 - The most embrassing period! Lets just say I liked Michael Jackson and
the BeeGees a little too much
10-16 - Typical thing, white tops with shirts over various kinds over top
17 + - Black Period, Everything I own now is mostly black. Except a few
biscuit coloured trousers. Kinda like Tom Slone in Daria.

just the usual really:

baby clothes

school uniform

jeans and tshirt

gimp suit

varying approaches to preconceived scruffiness

I look pretty much the same as I did when I was 13... with notable improvements in certain areas, nudge, wink...

0-7 baby close to crazy tacky 80's garb
8-13 t-shirts and short pants (orange county is hot)
14-18 t-shirts, jeans, whatever shoes
19-now monochrome t-shirts, sometimes band shirt, jeans, chucks

I'm not too fashion-minded

Oh, you mean what I wear? That's different. I'm a much better dresser now because I started reading GQ and Esquire when I was in college, and I still flip through them when I go to the barber.

Flannel wearing kid in elementary,
Flannel wearing kid in Middle school,
Homemade t-shirts of crap bands I used to adore in high school,
Now whatever is laying on my floor and is clean.
And always jeans.

0-5: whatever my momma picked up for me at thrift stores and rummage sales. she occasionally made stuff for me.

6-10: athletic/preppy stuff, basically whatever was "cool" at the time. lots of shirts with "angel" and "princess" and all that garbage on them.

11-12: huge baggy black band shirts, elephant pants, jelly bracelets and other misc. "punk" jewelry. i loved good charlotte.

13: anything black and pink. dyed my hair hot pink, wore tons of eyeliner. wore a tool hoodie, a plaid skirt, fishnet stockings, and leather platform boots pretty often.

14: mostly wore preppier type things.

15: digging "vintage" stuff lately. usually wear jeans and some kind of top with old lady flats and a cardigan.

Over the years, I've stopped wearing tapered jeans.

0-8 oshkosh, gap, walmart
8-12- the peasant/hippie thing got really big right around this time so i wore a lot of those horrible "peasant tops" with bell sleeves.
12-14- moderate punkish phase, which didn't suit me at all. i was really trying to find myself and went through a ton of looks.
14-now- i started wearing leggings years ago and got a lot of flak for it until the laguna beach dipshits decided it was cool or whatever. i stopped wearing them when people told me i looked good in them. i just wear whatever. jeans, shirt, jacket.

I love cords, red and brown cords are the coolest, I like my trousers loose and baggy.

Before:



Now:

How do you see your 'look' in the future?

Thank you!

It's like Jared Leto is reverse!

For the majority of my life ive been content to wear clothes my mum buys me.
My logic throughout my teenage years was "im not gonna fit in on the basis of my personality, so why should i on the basis of my clothes". Cynicism, the cool soothing ice pack on the graze of desire.

dude lookin like billie joe

Let's say, well, NOW for the first time in my life I look like a woman. Hohohohoho.

ouch! :(

0-8 Just wore whatever my mom bought.
8-13 Just wore whatever fit me
13-21 Lot of black, tight jeans, band shirts
21-22(now) Can't wear band shirts anymore because not allowed to have any logos on display at work, so I wear striped black and white shirts instead.

All ages: Nude and satisfied.

jade: satisfied
