[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Normcore looks like middle-aged housewives. That's not trendy fashion. [/quote]

You sooooo misunderstand Normcore.  [/quote]

Instead of continuously saying "that's not normcore," "you don't get it," etc., why don't you offer some concrete examples?[/quote]

Don't be a tool. Everything I've googled on "normcore" touts it as a unisex, basic, unlabeled look. Posters on this thread are saying that DC fits that bill perfectly. Rather than explaining why those posters are wrong, you roll your eyes and insist that nobody understands. Why not post some images and explain why the DC frump look isn't normcore?[/quote]

Fine, I'll explain.  Because normcore is done PURPOSEFULLY.  That is a crucial component of normcore. You can't just go to the grocery store in a pair of Lululemon yoga pants and a tshirt and call it normcore because you're feeling lazy.  Normcore is a deliberate and mindful rejection of labels or attention-grabbing clothing as a commentary on capitalism and individuality in society.  The intentionality, the purposeful stripping down of everything trendy as a means of "blending in to stand out".  The intention matters.  Dressing in old jeans and a ratty shirt because you just [b]dont care[/b] does not qualify, sorry. [/quote]

Wow -- you sound like a total loser, obsessed with such trivialities.

And you sound like a loser who's completely out of touch with current fashions.[/quote]

Newsbulletin: being completely out of touch with current fashions does not make a person a loser once you graduate from high school.[/quote]
