I'm really struggling with fashion, I rarely ever buy clothes and when I do I usually just pick the first thing I see. I've had the same clothes for probably 10 years or so and I don't have any outfits. I wear jeans or /out/ pants with a sweater when I go out and just jean pyjamas or sweat pants when home alone.

I want to pull of this "old fashioned adult" look without comming out as an autistic, snobby hipster but I don't know where I get the clothes that I want. Mainstream clothing stores just sell sweatshop clothing and thought they are fairly cheap they're not really good quality, they're also very generic.

Any brands and particular pieces of clothing I should avoid?

White, durable t-shirts.

Pants you like for durability. Others needed for social commotions. Third even for special cases like beach parties etc. You'll quickly discern what's fitting for what occasion.

Males are noticed for not being noticable. Women atleast in western society excessively try to look more noticable, even when it's evident it's just for Ego lulz most of the time.

The silent worksman is the highest valuable part of society, so just because you've been on a 16-hours shift and got dusty clothes signals you've got drive, work and can steer off by yourself.

Durable work clothes, of course don't fit in some occasions. In case you're wondering what clothes are good there go to the thrift shop and make your imagination wander off. Get a feel of the stuff laying around and for what purpose it has been made.

Fancy looking bluberry shit is just shit. If you want to signal something, simply signal 'I don't give a fuck about fashion'. Some pants look good on some, some shirts look good on others and a few people only got the fedora option because of their ginormous head, for instance.

So, anything goes.

That's a lot of rationalization. Only works if you've got fully chad genetics.

Tshirts make you look like a lazy bastard. Go instead with a short sleeved shirt or polo shirt for a casual look. Avoid anything with words printed on it or garish brand logos.

If you aren't /fit/ and low bodyfat don't even bother spending a lot of money yet. Only then should you start getting nice wardrobe basics.

Realise;

This is a new hobby. You'll have to spend a lot of time figuring it out. No one jumps into deadlifting 200kg first go or writing an opera: you're going to suck at it for a few months or years at first before you finally have it nailed.

It will cost you money. If you want to set yourself apart and turn heads/get compliments, you will be sinking a lot money into quality items you will wear a lot, and also "experiment" items/outfits that you end up disliking and not wearing. You will wear regularly maybe 30-40% of your actual warddrobe.

If you are unable to accept these two requirements, stick to the sweatpants. If you are ready to embrace a new expensive hobby, I suggest buying second hand until you've found your style, after a year or so you'll know what you like and where to get it. I buy a lot of my clothes on eBay.
