^^^ I can't speak anyone else but I personally never liked Kanye's fashion much. I actually hate him for making "polo's" a trend sinceI've been wearing them since kindergarten. I guess it was bound to happen and it was cool and all but then I started seeing people wearing polo like theywere some baggy shirts, 3-4 times bigger than their size. It looked ridiculous and not only that but then I started getting accused of copying Kanye becausesupposedly that trend started with him.
As for the Dior jeans, Kanye started mentioning it at GQ and said it was one of the best jeans, but before he said that the selvedge/fitted jeans trend hadalready started a year or so. So I believe it wasn't his trend to start, it might have gotten some people into it and start noticing it but StyleForum andMenStyle forums has been on it before Kanye ever was. That's why I made my statement earlier.
As for high-end fashion, I've always been into it, I just never been able to afford it before. I admit, I always took a peak at designers runway shows andtry to imitate the look with cheaper brands. As far as I can remember, I've been a lurker here on NT for years before I even signed up and yes Ihaven't seen much people post high-end shoe threads. However, when I started this thread almost 2 years ago, it wasn't really widely accepted either,as you can see with the couple of ridiculous replies I received. It has warmed up now and people who actually likes and wears these stuff has come out of thewoodwork.
Of course were all influenced somehow, by our parents, stars and such. There's no denying that.
Now see, you have put it nicely and I can respond in a civilized way with a good discussion but if a guy like Dagoldenkids or Jimmyluv comes firing, he shouldexpect to get fire back. We still need to keep some decorum in this thread or this forum whether we agree or disagree. That's all.
EDIT: See the qoute you posted, he said the best are Van Noten, Margiel and McQueen yet no one here really purchases those. If people here were sheeps, thosebrands woul be all over this thread. Also, he even mentioend that Dior has been around and not new which proves my statement earlier. He didn't discover ithimself, jeans enthusiast has been all over them way before he got into them.
