God, Grant Me The Serenity Distressed Bleach Vintage Flannel Shirt
This God, Grant Me the Serenity distressed bleached vintage flannel shirt exudes effortless cool and laid-back style. Made from soft, worn-in cotton, it features a unique bleached pattern that adds character and charm. The classic plaid design combines earthy tones with hints of brighter hues, creating a perfect blend of vintage appeal and contemporary edge. This distressed finish adds a touch of character, making each piece one-of-a-kind. With its classic plaid pattern and relaxed fit, this flannel is perfect for layering or wearing on its own.
No two shirts will ever be exactly alike so please aware and embrace the differences. All shirts are carefully curated, hand-dyed, and re-purposed so that each shirt is going to be different from the next in terms of color and plaid print.
SIZING: These shirts vary, many are unisex and come in men's sizing. They can be worn by both men & women. Ordering your normal t-shirt size is recommended for a regular fit. Going 1 size up works well for a baggy/oversized fit.
FABRIC: All these shirts are made of cotton or a cotton/poly blend. Measurements and thickness vary slightly by brand.
COLORS: Each flannel is unique, and no two shirts are going to look exactly alike. Colors are sent at random. Because the colors often change throughout the bleaching process, I cannot take specific color requests for these shirts.
Care instructions: Turn item inside out, machine wash cold, no bleach, no softener. Do not dry clean. Do not iron. Air dry is recommended.
Due to different picture lighting settings the actual color might vary a bit from the pictures.

Rediscover Timeless Charm: Buy Retro Style Vintage Tee for Men
Vintage t-shirts hold a unique charm. They evoke memories of simpler times, filled with iconic designs, bold graphics, and a relaxed vibe. These tees are more than just clothing; they’re a celebration of individuality. Retro-inspired designs can feature anything from classic band logos and quirky slogans to abstract art and nostalgic references. By choosing to buy retro style vintage tee for men, you’re not just adding another item to your wardrobe. You’re embracing a piece of history and giving it a modern twist.
Why Retro Style Stands Out in Modern Fashion
Modern fashion often leans toward minimalism, but retro designs are unapologetically bold. Their loud patterns and creative graphics are a breath of fresh air in today’s world of plain and repetitive styles. Interesting tee shirts inspired by the retro era aren’t afraid to take risks, making them perfect conversation starters. When you wear a vintage tee, it’s like wearing a canvas of culture, reminding others of the decades that shaped today’s trends.
These tees also cater to comfort. Made with soft fabrics and a worn-in look, they feel as good as they look. Pairing a vintage tee with a sleek jacket or distressed jeans creates a balanced outfit that’s both relaxed and stylish.
How to Spot the Perfect Retro Tee
When looking for the ideal tee, focus on three elements: design, fit, and quality. The best retro tees have designs that resonate personally, whether they depict iconic imagery or quirky themes. For example, interesting tee shirts with eccentric prints or nostalgic references to pop culture make for great statement pieces.
Fit is equally important. The beauty of retro-style tees lies in their versatility. Whether you prefer a slim fit or a loose, laid-back look, there’s a vintage design that complements your style. Lastly, don’t compromise on quality. Authentic vintage or well-crafted replicas made from durable fabrics ensure that your tee will withstand the test of time, just like the era it represents.
Styling Retro Tees for Any Occasion
The beauty of retro tees lies in their versatility. While they exude casual vibes, they can also be elevated with the right styling. Want a relaxed weekend outfit? Pair a vintage tee with faded jeans and sneakers. Heading to an outdoor event? Layer it with an open flannel shirt for a rugged yet trendy appeal.
For a semi-casual look, interesting tee shirts with striking designs can be worn under a tailored blazer or leather jacket. The juxtaposition of a polished layer with a nostalgic graphic adds depth and personality to your ensemble. The key is balance—let your retro tee be the centerpiece while keeping the rest of your outfit muted to let it shine.
Why Every Man Should Own a Retro Tee
Investing in retro tees isn’t just about fashion—it’s about storytelling. These shirts often carry motifs and themes that provoke curiosity and spark conversations. Whether it’s an iconic design from a cultural movement or a quirky graphic that showcases your humor, these tees reflect your personality like no other piece of clothing.
When you buy retro style vintage tee for men, you’re also contributing to sustainable fashion. Many retro tees are crafted using eco-friendly practices or are sourced second-hand, reducing waste and promoting recycling. It’s a small step toward making fashion choices that are both stylish and responsible.
Where to Find the Best Retro Tees
The demand for retro-style clothing has made it easier than ever to find unique designs. From online stores specializing in vintage-inspired collections to local shops offering handpicked pieces, the options are endless. Pay attention to the details—authentic prints, distressed finishes, and soft fabrics are telltale signs of a high-quality retro tee.
When shopping online, take time to explore niche platforms that curate interesting tee shirts. These platforms often house exclusive collections that cater to different themes, ensuring you’ll find something that resonates with your taste. And don’t shy away from exploring second-hand or thrift shops; some of the best vintage finds are hidden treasures waiting to be discovered.
Wrapping Up: Embrace the Nostalgia
Retro tees are more than a fashion trend; they’re a way of celebrating the past while staying rooted in the present. When you choose to buy retro style vintage tee for men, you’re investing in a piece of art that tells a story. Pair it with your favorite accessories, experiment with layering, and make it your own.

Percy Jackson Characters + Styles of Dress
Percy- Alternative + Skater He looks like a skater boy and dresses like one, too. He wears a lot of Thrasher shirts, checkered Vans, chains, beanies, ripped jeans, long socks, light studs, baggy shirts, jeans that are usually black or dark blue, and jackets that are usually leather or denim. His main colors are black and blue accented with gray and white. He accessories perfectly and lightly and always has that one thing that tips his outfit off a bit but otherwise he dresses pretty well and only dresses for himself (and almost never combs his hair). He has a lot of pins and sewed stickers on his jackets and usually has his skateboard with a bunch of spray-painted designs on the back with him. He sometimes wears ripped tank tops and/or jeans and flannel shirts and his favorite article of clothing is a black beanie Grover bought him.
Annabeth- Nerdy Academia + Comfy Half the time she wears skinny jeans, cardigans, scarves, long-sleeved shirts, button-up shirts, baggy pants, and the occasional skirt and the other half of the time she wears oversized hoodies, sweatpants, sweaters, and baggy shirts. She owns a hundred different belts, mostly wears short boots, and likes to accessorize with small gold jewelry and always has some sort of brown purse with her to hold her books and blueprints. She usually looks like the human personification of the coffee shop aesthetic and her main colors are brown, white, and cream with dark yellow and black accents. Her favorite article of clothing is a dark orange dress shirt that goes with anything. 
Jason-  Prep + Plain He wears the epitome of the Dad™ outfits- polo shirts, jeans, t-shirts, belts, sneakers, khakis, knee-shorts, sandals, and striped or button-up shirts. He sometimes wears suspenders and looks super nerdy in them but otherwise has a very plain and simple style. He likes to look presentable but doesn’t care that much about fashion. He’ll wear the occasional denim jacket, hoodie, and combat boots and the only accessory he has ever worn was a watch until Reyna bought him a gold chain necklace he always wears but tucks into all his shirts. His main colors are white, purple, and blue with light gray accents. His favorite article of clothing is a white polo shirt from his favorite shop at New Rome.
Piper- Casual + Simple She wears basic, everyday clothes most people own like sweaters, denim and snowboarding jackets, sneakers, hiking boots, t-shirts, tank tops, shorts, and skinny jeans (ripped and not). She likes to keep it plain and simple- just like Jason- and rarely accessories, usually just going for whatever’s comfiest. She doesn’t really care about fashion but will occasionally wear a cardigan, small accessory like a bracelet or necklace, or hoodie that most likely belongs to Jason. Her main colors are green and blue with orange and white accents. Her favorite article of clothing is the white snowboarding jacket her mom returned to her after claiming her at Camp Half-Blood.
Frank- Cozy + Athletic He loves comfy, warm clothes. His wardrobe mostly consists of large hoodies, sweats, cuffed jeans, baggy t-shirts, zip-up sweaters, and sneakers but also often wears athletic clothes like Nike tank tops, workout shorts, gym shoes, and athletic tops. Other than that he wears the typical Camp Jupiter outfit and his main colors are blue, purple, and white with accents of red and brown. He also likes wearing clothes with Canadian-flag prints on them. His favorite article of clothing is a large, dark gray Adidas hoodie that mysteriously goes missing every few days (ahemHazelahem).
Hazel- Old-Fashioned + Cottagecore Her style is the cutest. Sometimes she wears vintage clothing from the early 1900′s as that’s what she’s most used to, so she sometimes wears cute vintage dresses, gloves, and pearl jewelry, but she mostly wears flowy dresses, riding boots, skirts, comfy shirts, jeans, baggy sweaters, and overalls and overall shorts and usually accessories with her own jewelry, cute pins, and flowers, especially flower crowns (courtesy of her step-mother Proserpina). She loves floral-print, often steals hoodies and t-shirts five times too big for her from Frank, likes wearing sparkly makeup (usually in gold), and her main colors are white, cream, and light brown with pink and light green accents. Her favorite article of clothing is a pearl necklace similar to one her mother used to wear. 
Leo- Work + Eccentric He has two very different styles. He usually wears clothes that are best suited for his work like plain tops, cargo pants to carry all his tools, army jackets, tool belts, khakis, jeans, and Timberland boots, but whenever he’s out in the mortal world or not working, his style completely changes. He wears bright, flashy colors that don’t go together, random prints (especially floral and cheetah-print), and accessories with different jewelry, mostly bracelets. He owns a lot of silly and graphic tees and has a bunch of fandom merch. His colors for his work clothes are brown, white, and green and his colors for his everyday clothes are every color imaginable. His favorite article of clothing is a yellow t-shirt with a Pikachu face on it, which he bought cause he always used to watch Pokémon with his mom.
Reyna- Androgynous/Butch/Tomboyish + Low-Key Punk Her style screams badass. She wears a bunch of unisex and tomboy clothes like button-up jean shirts, baggy and button-up shirts in general, flannel shirts, jeans, sneakers, beanies, hoodies, and sometimes polo shirts and suspenders but also wears punk-ish clothes like denim or leather jackets, studs, fingerless leather gloves, ripped jeans, combat boots, and punk accessories (courtesy of Thalia), and she looks awesome in a suit. Sometimes she wears binds and mostly accessories with pins and earrings but is comfortable with any style of clothing and it honestly ranges day-to-day, and sometimes when she’s feeling nostalgic she’ll do her hair and makeup really well like she used to at Circe’s Island. She cares about her appearance and every outfit is always on-point and perfect, even if she didn’t try that hard and some colors don’t match with the others. Her main colors are purple, brown, and gold with white, red, and black accents. Her favorite article of clothing is a button-up jean shirt she bought while out with Nico. 
Nico- Emo/Grunge + Girly His style is unique, but not as eccentric as Leo’s. A lot of the time he wears the basic black skull t-shirt, black leather or aviator jacket, black jeans, chains, combat boots, and light accessories with a few studs, but he mixes it up quite often. He also frequently wears grunge-like clothes like faded clothes, floral-print, plaid shirts, baggy sweaters, cardigans, beanies, distressed jeans, denim jackets, and parkas, but- with the help from his Big Sister™ Reyna and feminine queen Drew Tanaka- he experiments with transvestism and loves wearing crop-tops, skirts, flowy dresses, cute tops, and light makeup, usually eyeliner and blush. His colors range from main black with gray and white accents to main brown, blue, and black with green and silver accents to main pink and black with white and light brown accents. He also loves stealing clothes from Reyna cause they’re so big and comfy. He has two favorite articles of clothing- the silver skull ring from Bianca and a black denim jacket with a white skull stitch on the right lapel from Reyna.
Thalia- Punk + Goth She wears mostly punk clothes- ripped-up jackets, studs, chains, band pins, ripped jeans, leather jackets, chain jewelry, and graphic or band tees- but sometimes will go full goth when she feels like it and will wear all-black outfits, black combat boots with a bunch of belts on them, heavy jewelry, studs, and baggy or lacy clothes. She’ll usually just wear black eyeliner but will go all-out with awesome black eyeshadow, black lipstick, and small black designs near her eyelids (courtesy of makeup-professional Reyna). She also wears gold and silver accessories and owns a bunch of lightning-bolt clothes (courtesy of her frenemy Percy). She only wears Hunter of Artemis-style clothes like silvery parkas, gray camo pants, and gray hunting boots when out hunting with the other Hunters but always wears her silver lieutenant circlet. Her main colors are black with white, dark blue, silver, and sometimes gold accents. Her favorite article of clothing is the black leather jacket Luke gave to her before she got turned into a tree.
Rachel- Artsy + Cute She wears clothes that are the epitome of the Artsy Friend™. She usually wears oversized and baggy shirts, jeans with poked holes in them, casual shoes (mostly colorful Converse), overalls and overall shorts, bright-colored and/or striped tees and sweaters, mom jeans, beanies, and jumpers. She carries a palette and a few paintbrushes around with her everywhere in a kanken and always has doodles and paint splatters on her clothes, hands, and arms and sometimes chalk beneath her usually-painted fingernails. Sometimes she practices her art in makeup-form and does amazing detailed eyeshadow or scarily realistic drawings on her arms and legs. She also loves wearing bandanas, sandals, hair pins, scrunchies, and gold accessories. She wears pretty much every color but mostly red, orange, and yellow with green, blue, and purple accents and likes wearing rainbow clothes as well. Her favorite article of clothing is a bright yellow jumper Percy bought her for her birthday.

Critical thinking lectures:
How has lifestyle, industrial & social changes impacted fashion & textiles?
In today’s lecture we gained understanding of what has influenced and impacted fashion and textiles in the past, in order to predict what will happen to the fashion and textiles industries in the future.
We started by exploring historical aspects that have driven these changes, to start to interpret the significance that these influential factors will play on the future of the fashion & textile industries.
We watched a video on YouTube called “100 years of fashion: women” Published on 3 jun 2015. Were we discussed as a group what drives these changes.
Tumblr media
The growth of the fashion industry, caused by the industrial revolution (1870-1900s) enabled the suffragettes to use fashion as a form of branding to help promote their cause.
“They are, of course, only following in the honourable tradition set over a century ago by the suffragettes, who harnessed fashion, and the meaning of colour, as methods of communication in the early days of photography. In 1908 Emmeline Pethick-Lawrence devised the scheme of purple for dignity, white for purity and green for hope - branding for the cause, which triggered Liberty and Selfridges to start selling ranges of tricolour ribbon, underwear, bags and soap. Christina Broom…documented marches of thousands of suffragists and suffragettes wearing white dresses designed to prove to the country the dignity of their cause.”

“Make Do and Mend was a pamphlet issued by the British Ministry of Information in the midst of WWII. It was intended to provide housewives with useful tips on how to be both frugal and stylish in times of harsh rationing. With its thrifty design ideas and advice on reusing old clothing, the pamphlet was an indispensable guide for households. Readers were advised to create pretty ‘decorative patches’ to cover holes in warm garments; unpick old jumpers to re-knit chic alternatives; turn men’s clothes into women’s; as well as darn, alter and protect against the ‘moth menace’.

The “New Look” exploded in Paris in 1947 (in contrast to the utilitarian approach adopted in the war) lead by the pioneering designer Christian Dior, who empowered women through fashion. 
“Throughout the war, cloth and labour shortages had limited the amount of fabric and trimming that could be used… jackets had been masculine, shoulders square and skirts short and straight… belts, seams, collars and trouser turn-ups had to conform to certain restrictions …” Yet, only two years after the end of the war, here were ankle-length skirts whose hems measured up to 40 metres in circumference. Here was a fashion that emphasised femininity, with rounded shoulders, waists nipped in tight, and hips and busts exaggerated by bodices and padding. 
The New Looks striking stylistic legacy lived on well into the 1960s.

”Women, with their sure instincts, realized that my intention was to make not just more beautiful but also happier,” said Dior: A businessman as well as a poet, he made fashion responsible for expressing society's desires, and  showed it how to communicate…” ref book Dior

Tumblr media
Working in groups based on the following decades: 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. In our group we researched fashion in the 2000s. We made a mind map that considered the above influencing factors that have impacted on the fashion designers from this decade. We recorded the effect of these causes and how they have driven the design, materials and production at this time. 
2000s Fashion:
Casual clothing and leisurewear were big trends in the early 2000s, a casual look for women would have been, crop tops, hoodies, low-rise flared jeans, cargo pants, daisy dukes, jean skirts, off the shoulder tops, ribbed sweaters, with platform sandals, ugg boots, or sneakers. 
After researching I found technology and Y2K bug (problem in the coding of computerized systems that was projected to create havoc in computers and computer networks around the world at the beginning of the year 2000) had a huge impact on fashion in the early 2000s. The colour palette was full of shiny black tones and reflective metallics. The Y2K trend was worn on a daily but mainly reserved for going out. Popular outfits for women included mesh or handkerchief tops, box-pleated or leather skirts, shiny pants, and sparkly shoes. Britney Spears was a trendsetter for this type of style. For men, Y2K looks involved leather jackets, a statement dress shirt, and chunky shoes. 
Tumblr media
Mid 2000s fashion - Fashion started to take cues from 1960s bohemian looks. Yoga pants, low-rise jeans, cowl-neck shirts, peasant tops, capri pants, cropped jackets, and dresses over jeans was a popular outfit choice for women. These outfits were paired with accessories, such as, chunky belts, aviator sunglasses, jelly bracelets, ties worn around the neck or as belts, ballet flats, and platform boots. The 1960s revival looks were also popular with men. Including light wash bootcut jeans, cargo shorts, classic rock t-shirt, fitted cowboy shirts, henleys, polos with popped collars, and seersucker suits. 
Tumblr media
Late 2000s fashion - For women, crop tops were replaced with camisoles and miniskirts, bubble skirt, and sweater dresses. There was also a 1980s and 1990s revival of neon colours, animal prints, geometric shapes, light denim jeggings, and ripped acid washed jeans that were worn with gladiator sandals, ballet flats, and headbands. The oversized look became popular, but it was more subtle than the traditional 80s fit. Men’s late 2000s fashion was a mix of 1950s and 1980s throwbacks, with letterman and black leather jackets, overcoats, slim cut jeans, Ed Hardy t-shirts, flannel shirts, and V-neck sweaters. Paired with dad hats, wayfarers or aviators, motorcycle boots, converse, vans, or sneakers. 
Tumblr media
Hip-Hop had a influence on the 2000s fashion, many rappers influenced fashion with their own clothing lines. Including Jay-Z, Diddy, Nelly, and 50 Cent. Many looks included baggy jeans, tall t-shirts, sports jerseys, velour suits, bubble jackets, and puffer vests paired with headbands, sweatshirts, Timberland boots, and sneakers like Adidas Superstars or Nike Air Force 1s. 
Tumblr media
Streetwear is brand focused casual clothing, like jeans, tees, and sneakers. In the late 2000s popular streetwear styles included distressed skinny jeans, loose fitting tops, loose or fitted tracksuits, track pants, hoodies, graphic t-shirts, vintage thrift shop tees, and Tommy Hilfiger and U.S. Polo Assn brands. Sneakers were an important part of the style, retro Nike Air Jordans and Adidas Yeezys. 
Tumblr media
Emo fashion became popular in the mid 2000s and took cues from goth and punk styles. Outfits were often all or mainly black with skinny jeans, band t-shirts, studded belts, and checkered vans. Every emo look was completed with the right hairstyle, choppy cuts with long side-swept bangs dyed black, platinum blonde, or a bright colour. 
Tumblr media
Athleisure Wear - If you wanted to be comfortable yet fashionable in the early 2000s the velor tracksuits was the go to. Britney Spears, Beyonce and Eminem to Diddy were on on the tracksuit craze. They were brightly coloured and emblazoned with rhinestone logos and phrases. It was also in to mix track pants with dress clothing and design shoes to elevate the look. 
Tumblr media
The Beatles were one of the most influential bands in history, taking their fans on a journey of fashion styles through the decades from rock to teddy boys to hippie years.
(1962-1964) - (1964-1966)

Did technology play a part in influencing this style?
During this lecture we watched a video called The Beatles Yellow Submarine. 
Exaggerated shoulder pads epitomises the Power Dressing of the 1980’s.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uOlwwoZLoKE&feature=youtu.be
Tumblr media
In the 1980s Power Dressing in the UK grew from a new money focused generation, in London, creating a bee style. This look was patented by shows such as Dynasty and Dallas, where actors such as Joan Collins and Linda Evans dressed as female power dresses. Shoulder-pads and sharply tailored suits ruled and has been continued to be used by women today to signify power.

THATCHER USED FASHION AS A POLITICAL TOOL
“With ‘power dressing’ she could tap into the image of a career woman but her reputation as a fierce leader then drove her to wear clothes that might ‘soften’ her image, which was why she wore pussy bow blouses. A symbol of the past reflecting a more conservative femininity, the pussy bow blouse clashed with the aggressive power suits. “This was the paradox of the Thatcher image: at once she sought to embody conservative values while also seeking to assert her right to power as a woman. Dr Tyan”

Margaret Thatcher: Fashion as a Political Tool
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qynZ0NEHH4M&feature=youtu.be
How did Margaret Thatcher change Britain: 
Privatisation 
London became a leading financial capital 
Open all hours 
The decline of the north 
Lessened role of trade unions 
Northern Ireland peace process 
Education reforms – league tables 
Home ownership 
Power dressing
Prestige for armed forces (Falklands)
Transformed Labour party 
Julian Coman Sun 14 Apr 2013 10.00 BST https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/apr/14/margaret-thatcher-20-changes-britain 
My own research on Margaret Thatcher -
When looking at pictures of Margaret Thatcher, after the election in 1979, a well-dressed woman with her individual style is clearly shown. She began to create her image and appearance as an example of how women in power should dress. Thatcher was a confident and stern business woman however there was a clear contrast to the feminine clothing she wore. She used her clothing and style as an act of self - definition that disguised herself from others showing her individual identity as Prime Minister. Thatcher styled herself appropriately for political occasions, the most occuring colour Thatcher wore was royal blue. With her power suits and the legendary pussybow blouses, that made her a fashion icon, she was known for her haircut, her pearls, and her handbag. Her hairstyle was one of the famous features of Margaret Thatcher, as straight and precise as the lady herself. 
One great example on how her style, outfits and political power were set together was before she became Prime Minister. Thatcher wore hats because not only they suited her well but were symbols of her status and class. As the leader of a major political party, her hats seemed to be a political problem. It was a problem because middle class people with conventional attitudes were prejudiced towards her. This was not the picture of a leader the party wanted to draw. Consequently, after her election to British Prime Minister she only wore hats for State ceremonies and foreign tours but not on polictail occasions anymore.

Brand Report
In groups we researched information about the brand Lazy Oaf, we created a detailed report which covers each of the 8 elements that make a band pitch. These elements include: Vision & purpose, brand identity, customer, price, product, place, promotion and  packaging. In our group we decided to each choose an element to research and talk about, I picked promotion. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lazy Oaf’s Brand Identity is definitely something I would take away and incorporate into our brand. We want to create personal products that our customers love and respect. Minimize environmental hazards through being sustainable but with fair prices. We also discussed as a group giving back to charities with a percentage of money we make as a brand. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This group task gave us practice with working together, assigning roles and discussing information online. We decided to split the work fairly so that everyone had an equal amount of work to research and present. As we had to present this group task to our peers it helped us practice for when we present our brand.

This holiday season, the hottest place to shop in Los Angeles won’t be on shoppers’ paradise Rodeo Drive, but in a warehouse in the city’s grubby garment district. That’s where A Current Affair, one of the world’s hottest vintage marketplaces, will be on December 7.
High-end vintage fashion is having an unprecedented moment, and A Current Affair’s founder Richard Wainwright – resolutely shy in his thick-rimmed glasses, patterned button-down shirt and jeans – is right in the middle of it.
Wainwright has the perfect pedigree for vintage – he has degrees in fashion marketing and merchandising from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York, and in history of art from the University of California, Berkeley.
“Vintage has always played a role in my life,” says Wainwright. “I started collecting at an early age. Back then, we didn’t really have ‘
fast fashion
’ so combining items found at thrift stores and yard sales was both a creative outlet and a practical way to afford clothing [that] my parents wouldn’t otherwise buy me.”
Shoppers trying on items at A Current Affair.
When Wainwright started A Current Affair nine years ago, the event had only 17 exhibitors.
“Today, we are now a community of over 200 sellers popping up in Los Angeles, Brooklyn and the San Francisco Bay Area seven times a year, in addition to trunk shows … and we did an event at [department store] Isetan in Tokyo this autumn. There is nowhere else to shop that compares to A Current Affair,” Wainwright says proudly, describing the marketplace’s clothes as “the best vintage on the planet”.

Liz Baca, with her fiancé Michael D’Andrade, is the owner of The Goods, an appointment-only showroom of designer vintage clothes in Los Angeles, and a vendor at A Current Affair.
“The vintage marketplace has exploded,” says Baca. “When I began, people didn’t really understand what I did. Today, everyone sells vintage clothing. It’s become mainstream.”
The world of high-end vintage is not what you get at your local second-hand shop. Instead of costume jewellery, old flannels and luggage from the 1960s, it’s more 19th-century lace gowns, 1920s cocktail dresses adorned with hand-sewn bead work and feathers, and chunky solid gold jewellery from the decadent ’80s.
Band shirts can still be found at A Current Affair, but they might set you back several hundred US dollars.

The chances of you showing up to a party where someone is wearing the same pencil skirt from the 1940s as you are is almost non-existent. And, because of their age, vintage pieces have a story to tell.
Yes, designer threads tell the world that you have plenty of money, but vintage clothes have history – and the romance of a new couture ball gown pales in comparison to that of a century-old silk.
Anyone who isn’t wearing vintage has a one-dimensional view of fashion, and it reads as flat and boring in today’s over-saturated visual environmentA Current Affair’s founder Richard Wainwright
Common criticisms of vintage clothes – that they show wear and tear or look worn – are seen as something to be proud of by many clothes lovers. The patina of an already cherished garment is something that no amount of chemical treatment or factory distressing can emulate.
Broader economic trends are also at work. Retail is in trouble, and bricks-and-mortar stores are struggling to stay afloat across the board – some fast-fashion brands, such as Forever 21, have already filed for bankruptcy and closed their stores.
Meanwhile, A Current Affair feels vital and packed with shoppers – including fashion icons like Donald Glover – on the day we visited a pop-up in September.
“It feels as if we are the only type of fashion retail that is booming,” says Wainwright. “Everyone complains that retail is dead but our shows are very much alive.”
Why are millennials in Malaysia and Singapore deserting H&M?
While some of the vendors at A Current Affair have shops, the majority conduct their business online, or through rented by-appointment-only show rooms. Vintage doesn’t require bricks-and-mortar stores to stay afloat. Social media, especially platforms like Instagram, have been a godsend for vintage purveyors. Instagram offers a way for sellers to display their wares to their targeted audiences anywhere in the world without significant overheads.
“Fashionable people have always turned to vintage, but in this age of social media there is added pressure to have things that no one else does or to combine things in unique ways,” says Wainwright. “Anyone who isn’t wearing vintage has a one-dimensional view of fashion, and it reads as flat and boring in today’s over-saturated visual environment. ”

Vintage is also a sustainable option in a time when people are increasingly aware of the environmental impact and human toll of fast fashion. It is essentially recycling, without the buyer having to bear responsibility for its sourcing and manufacture. And, even if the piece you buy is originally from a large fashion house, the money you spend goes to small business retailers, not large corporations.
Until recently, the biggest obstacle to vintage overtaking traditional fashion was the Asian market, where online statistics portal Statista expects fashion sales to hit almost US$362 billion this year.
Historically, vintage, at the risk of generalisation, just didn’t check the boxes that many Asian buyers are looking for in status clothes: big name label recognition, bleeding-edge trendiness and price tags that are as jaw-dropping as they are widely known. In China (the largest market by far) there are legal restrictions around importing second-hand clothes. There are even superstitions against wearing vintage – like the belief that wearing a dead person’s clothes will upset the original owner’s ghost.
How a fast-fashion boycott could help save the world
This is changing fast. Japan has long led the way in Asian interest in vintage, with
Tokyo now a mecca for the most dedicated vintage enthusiasts
. This fervour, however, is global. There are major vintage markets in many Asian metropolises, including Bangkok, Beijing, Tokyo and Seoul, that are often considered just as hip as – or even more hip – than big label stores or glitzy shopping districts.
After English, the most commonly spoken language at the A Current Affair pop-up in Los Angeles in September was Mandarin. A Current Affair also hosted its first Asian pop-up event in Tokyo last month, presenting more than 500 vintage pieces curated for the Japanese market to eager crowds in the city’s Shinjuku neighbourhood.
“I have certainly noticed an interest in vintage clothing spread in the Asian markets,” says Baca. “These days, interest there is just as widespread as other markets. I see it only growing bigger.”

The global shift towards vintage over fast fashion in the last few years has been drastic, and is poised to accelerate further still.
New York University business professor Scott Galloway predicted, as reported in the Australian newspaper Sydney Morning Herald last month, that global second-hand clothes sales will overtake fast fashion within nine years – and the numbers bear this out.
In 2018, according to Statista, the American vintage clothing market was worth US$24 billion, compared to US$35 billion for fast fashion. In nine years, analysts expect the second-hand clothes industry to reach US$64 billion, with fast fashion trailing at US$44 billion.

“Vintage has gone mainstream, especially with the endorsement of celebrities wearing vintage on the red carpet,” says Eddie Paul Friend of Lust and Fond, a California-based vendor at A Current Affair.
Those celebrities – like Zooey Deschanel, Christina Hendricks and Aya Cash – also show off their latest fashion finds on Instagram, where they are as likely to shout out to their favourite vintage shops as they are to their favourite labels.
Even high-fashion icons like Kate Moss have come out as proud vintage shoppers. October saw the release of Musings on Fashion and Style: Museo de la Moda , a book Moss collaborated on that serves as a paean to her favourite vintage pieces and looks.
“The buyer has changed,” says Baca. “Used clothing has become socially acceptable, so now you see all ages, financial backgrounds and races buying vintage clothes.”

▌real name: Roseann Bethany Maguire ▌single or taken: Single ▌abilities or powers: Can cry on command. Knows all the figures in pi. Vast knowledge of chemistry. Pretty good aim. Relatively fast. Quick thinker. That`s it, really. She doesn`t have any powers, and she`s definitely nothing special. ▌eye colour: Brown ▌hair colour: Brown ▌family members: Taylor Maguire (mother), Robert Thorn (Father), Alice Thorn (Half-sister), Charles Maguire (Half-brother), Sam Maguire (Half-brother), Frankie Maguire (Half-brother), Max Maguire (Half-brother) ▌pets: Oh, no. She can`t be trusted with animals anymore, she`s too busy to look after them. She did have a gold fish when she first moved out of her childhood home, and overfed it so it wouldn`t matter if she forgot to feed it throughout the week because of work. Spoiler alert, it died. ▌something they don’t like: Her brothers (she loves them, but she can`t stand them). Her father (a genuine hate). Not getting any recognition for the sacrifices she`s made. Most of her students. Confined spaces. Milk in her coffee. ▌hobbies/activities: She`s a massive nerd, but when she`s alone, she loves playing Sudoku. Karaoke with her brother Charles (though they both need to be extremely intoxicated). Going out for drinks by herself at five in the afternoon and not returning home until six the next morning. ▌ever hurt anyone before: What sort of question is that? Yes. You grow up in Gotham, you`re bound to get in a fair few fights. ▌ever killed anyone before: She doesn`t know. She hopes not. She`s sure that guy still had a pulse when she left him. ▌animal that represents them: Wolf (according to several spirit animal quizzes, anyway) ▌worst habits: Chain smoker. Caffeine addict. A tendency to hide herself away in her appartment and cut off all forms of human contact. Jumping to conclusions. Acting first, thinking later. ▌sexual orientation: Bisexual, she thinks. She`s only ever had boyfriends before - one boyfriend, actually -, but if she had to give herself a label, Rose feels as though bisexual is the one that fits. ▌thoughts on marriage/kids: Marriage? Yes. With the right person at the right time, definitely. Kids? No. No way. She`s had enough of kids to last her a lifetime. She raised four - her brothers  - while she was still a kid herself. It`s sort of put her off. ▌fears: Claustrophobia (Fear of confined spaces). Aichmophobia (Fear of needles ((Though only those that a doctor would use, she`s fine with tattoo/piercing needles)). Besides those two, she doesn`t have any specific fears, and for her to be afraid of something else, it would depend on the situation. ▌style preferences: Distressed jeans. Plain t-shirts. Boots. Cardigans. Denim. The occasional button-up. Blazers. Sweaters. Monochromatic clothing. Dull colours. Vintage clothing. Flannels. Jersey dresses and stilettos, if she`s going out. Tank tops. Cut-off shorts. ▌someone they love: Does her family count? Because if not, she doesn`t know. Herself, maybe? ▌approach to friendships: She could be on friendly terms with somebody for ages - chats in the street, coffee dates, drinks, helping them with their bags, watching sport with them - and she still wouldn`t call them her friend. Rose needs the other person to confirm that they`re friends, or they`ll forever be "that person she hangs out with". ▌thoughts on pie: It`s just like dry cake. She loves it. ▌favourite drink: If alcoholic, whiskey. If non-alcoholic, coffee. If there`s no coffee, cola. ▌favourite place to spend time at: Dodgy little bars at the weekend. School sports games. Coffee shops. The park. ▌swim in the lake or in the ocean: The ocean. Though she wouldn`t be opposed to a skinny-dip in the lake, either. ▌their type: Anyone who isn`t her ex boyfriend. Somebody she can talk to about anything, without them judging her. Somebody who isn`t afraid to tell her when she`s wrong. Somebody who listens to her and actually hears her. Somebody who`ll bring her out of her comfort zone, but not too much that they change her completely. Looks wouldn`t hurt either, but she`s not too fussy. Her standards are pretty low, she`s just afraid of commitment.  ▌camping or indoors: She tends to stay indoors, but she`s always liked the idea of camping. Nobody would ever go camping with her, though.

Summer is here and its time to bust out with those shorts.
Shorts are terrific because they are a cool and casual item that’s perfect for the warmer weather. You can pair them with a variety of pieces to create several outfit looks.
If you think shorts are limiting, think again. Here are some of the styles you can be creating.
Professional Looks
Didn’t think you could wear shorts to work? There are ways to look sophisticated, even when shorts are your outfit staple.
Start with a dressier pair of shorts. These are usually pleated, and they can range in length to fall anywhere from just under the buttocks to the knee.
Pair them with a blouse (these can be short sleeved or sleeveless) or a nicely cut tee. A blazer will be a stylish addition if it’s not too much considering the heat.
Finish the look with a pair of slip-ons or sandals and you are ready to close that deal.
Athletic Looks
Athleisurewear can easily transition into summer with yoga shorts or joggers. Pair them with a sports bra or racer back tank and a pair of athletic shoes and hit the gym.
Festival Looks
Shorts are a major part of festival fashion.
Start with a pair of denim cut offs, add a bralette, kimono and a pair of platforms. Accessorize with a sunhat and a pair of retro glasses and head out to Coachella.
Casual
Feel like just being casual? A tank or tee and shorts will make a terrific summer look.
Overall Shorts
Love overalls? The bib top can be combined with shorts, pants or a skirt. To make a complete shorts look, add a sleeveless flannel and some chunky shoes.
As Part of an Outfit
Two-piece outfits are big this year. Look for shorts that come with a matching top or blazer. These take the shorts look up a notch making them perfect for semi- formal occasions.
Romper Looks
Love the look and simplicity of a dress but feel like it’s just too ‘dressy’? Rompers are the perfect alternate.
Like dresses, they are easy to wear since you don’t need to think too much about coordinating pieces. However, the shorts provide a more casual look that’s perfect for various occasions. Just add shoes and accessories and you’re ready to rock.
Boho Chic
Shorts can easily be incorporated into a boho chic look. Combine a beat-up pair of denim shorts with a ruffly blouse to create a terrific vintage appeal.
High Waisted Shorts
There’s no doubt about it, high waisted bottoms are the tops. They can be worn on trousers or shorts.
When wearing high waisted shorts, combine them with a tucked in shirt or use them to meet a short crop top half way. The sexiness of the crop top will complement the sophisticated high waisted look to provide the perfect dichotomy.
Distressed Denim
The grunge look is back…or did it ever go away?
Distressed denim is a terrific grunge look that can be combined with jackets, skirts, jeans and, of course, shorts. You can go full on grunge by combining distressed denim shorts with a ripped-up rock shirt or make the look ironic by combining them with soft looking, tailored blouse.
Boyfriend Shorts
The loose legged look is where it’s at. This fashion statement can be incorporated into longer shorts with a style known as boyfriend shorts.
Just like the jeans, boyfriend shorts are higher in the waist and loose throughout the leg. They can be worn with just about anything a pair of boyfriend jeans can be worn with…which is just about anything!
Shorts are perfect for staying cool in the summer. Now that you know all the ways you can wear them, you can create a variety of outfits that impress. Which are your favorite short outfit looks?

I kinda wanna talk about aesthetics... cuz ever since you mentioned SKATER BOYS JISUNG + uhhhhh Jeno? Jaemin I think? Tbh I just honed in on skater boy!Jisung AHHHHH!!! I cant stop think about them in all their ear-pierced glory, skinny ripped jeans that are completely falling apart, an assortment of band tees and backwards caps and eyeliner fjdhskkdhhosfifk
So I’m just gonna give all of their “archetypes” and styles in the main highschool au
Mark: skater kid and music kid (he’s the only one who is truly a combo). He normally wears t-shirts, jeans, and a flannel or hoodie (typically wrapped around his waist). His jeans didn’t originally have holes in them but oh well. He got Renjun to paint his guitar and his skateboard with koi fish. He’s pretty chill and will take the rest of the guys to get their tattoos and piercings since they can’t drive yet but doesn’t plan on getting too many. He has one small tattoo near his wrist and piercings in his lobes. He doesn’t plan on getting too many more piercings but maybe another small tattoo.
Renjun: art kid. His normal style is more comfortable that cool. Hoodies and jeans that aren’t extremely tight are his go to. On stage he’ll rock a pair of skinny jeans and some eyeliner but off he’d rather be bare faced and in jeans that don’t cut off circulation. He has the most ear piercings and also a lip ring. His tattoos are all both pretty and meaningful (and most of them he designed himself). Pretty much everything he touches is covered in paint, from his jeans to his shoes the pencil he borrowed from Jeno yesterday. He paints skateboards and guitars for the boys and every time he finished a piece they shower him in praise.
Jeno: Music kid. Honestly I imagine him dressing like he did the boy video 10 (the denim outfit) except with a few more piercings and the clothes a bit more distressed. (I’m also gonna say he has black hair because that’s top tier.) Jeno hasn’t gotten his tattoo yet but he does have a fake nose/lip ring to help him decide if he actually wants to get a nose or lip piercing. Also wants gauges but his parents want him to think that over a bit more. His acoustic has a space scene painted on it and he calls it his prized possession. His stage outfit doesn’t change too much, he just puts on eyeliner really.
Hyuck: skater kid. This boy is the ripped jean king. If he doesn’t buy them pre ripped, his rips them on his own so he can get the tears exactly where he wants them. Owns quite a few flannels (mostly in red but occasionally he’ll bust out the black ones.) He typically dresses in torn up jeans, a band tee (likely from Hot Topic), a too large flannel (unbuttoned but tucked together and in at the front) and the torn up converse or vans that he refuses to part with. Boy also wears eyeliner on a daily basis (even if he didn’t feel like doing any other makeup). He has the “edgiest” tattoo of “fuck” right above his elbow. He’s got quite a few ear piercings and will probably get a younger piercing when Renjun is like out of town (just so he can’t be told that it’s a stupid idea). His skateboard looks like a Jackson Pollock painting and he thinks it’s pretty cool. (Also would this really be Hyuck if he didn’t have bright red hair?) He doesn’t even change to go on stage, he’ll show up in what he went to school in and no one questions it because it matches the rest of their stage outfits anyways.
Jaemin: another skater kid. His style looks like he raided the nearby vintage shop for all their skate clothes and some windbreakers. (I think there’s a photo somewhere on this blog that of one of my outfits that I could see Jaemin wearing.) His jeans are also destroyed but that’s from doing tricks or wiping out on his skateboard instead of being intentional like Hyuck’s. He already has gauges and a tattoo and is considering getting an eyebrow piercing and more tattoos. He has stickers all over his skateboard (some of which are glittery princess ones because the boys bought them as a joke, not realizing that Jaemin actually does put every sticker he comes in contact with on his skateboard). When he’s on stage he typically ditches the jacket and sometimes wears a tank top (he has to move the most and if you’ve ever been to a concert/watched one online, you’ll see that the drummers typically wear the lightest/least amount of clothes).
Chenle: music kid. Tries to dress cool but is honestly just really cute. His jeans are the most intact but he does have a couple pairs that are torn from where Jisung tried to teach him how to skate. He’s stolen a few of Jisung’s flannels and hoodies because “Oversized clothing is in and your clothes are over sized to me, Jisung.” He has a piano which remains unpainted by Renjun but there are sticky notes with Renjun’s doodles on the piano. He’s tied with Mark on the fewest piercings (just lobes) and doesn’t really plan on getting a tattoo unless it truly means a lot to him. He does have the lavender hair he had during We Young (just because I really like that hair.)
Jisung: skater kid. His style is pretty similar to Haechan’s except he skips the makeup and his flannels fit properly. He does occasionally change up the flannel for a hoodie. He’ll occasionally “complain” about his flannels and hoodies ~*mysteriously*~ going missing. He actually has a few pairs of vans that he can swap out instead of depending on one pair that is well past it’s prime. He only has 3 piercings (one in each lobe, and one in the cartilage of his left ear) and is happy with that for now. His skateboard has a dragon painted on it, courtesy of Renjun.
I haven’t actually written much for Chenle and Jisung in the highschool au thing yet (I was stumped on Chenle for a while and ended up just not doing either of them because I’m lazy) but now I have a couple ideas lol

Since I come visit ‘Forget Me Knot’ blog and get cool outfit ideas from her, I also would like to share my outfit idea with items from sustainable shopping. As a blogger dealing with sustainable fashion, I try my best to use ethical or environmentally friendly brands and to shop secondhand items. Every item in this outfit is ethically made, upcycled, or secondhanded.
WHITE MOCK-NECK LONG SLEEVE T-SHIRT ($50)
I got it from Everlane, and this brand is known for transparency and sustainability. It opens all the sources of productions from material to factory to labor. Also, its designs and qualities are made to last longer, so it is more sustainable. The t-shirt is 100% cotton and very soft.
 BLUE PLAID SHIRTS ($54)
I got from Urban Renewal at Urban Outfitters, it’s up-cycled and remade with old waste fabrics. Urban Renewal is a vintage fashion brand that offers an array of up-cycled pieces that are re-imagined, re-working, and re-designed by their magical team. Urban Renewal’s clothes are each updated by hand, making each piece one-of-a-kind, so they are unique and good for environment as well. I like this color and the flannel fabric because it looks so vintage! It falls above the wrist and looks very cute wearing it.
 DARK GREY ANKLE JEANS ($39.99)
It’s from H&M but from its sustainable label, H&M Conscious. The Conscious label products contain at least 50% sustainable materials, such as organic cotton and recycled polyester. It’s very trendy with distressed hems in a straight fit.  
 GREY HERRINGBONE JACKET
I got it at a thrift store in NYC, and it is Ralph Lauren vintage with Woolmark! It was only under $20, but it’s warm, good quality, and so classic that I can match with almost everything. It is not easy and takes time to find something good at thrift stores, but it is really worth doing it because I always end up getting at least one great treasure. And secondhand shopping is sustainable!
 BROWN LOAFER
I like this loafer because it is vintage Bally and timeless design with high quality. Surprisingly, I found this at my local Goodwill store just at $5.99. As I mentioned above, I strongly recommend checking out your local thrift stores if you like treasure hunting and also interested in secondhand shopping.

5 - Fashion Trends: 90s Look
The 90s look is officially making a comeback this season, and I’m not surprised. I’ve noticed how much the 90s look is coming back in style all over social media platforms, so I am dedicating this week’s blog on the essential pieces and trends in order to achieve the 90s look.
Fishnets
Though this trend is dialing down, you can still try giving this trend a go. Layering fishnet socks or tights with a pair of distressed mom, boyfriend, or skinny jeans spices up any look. It adds that extra something instead of just wearing a shirt and a pair of jeans. Though they look really cool underneath a good pair of distressed jeans, they are sometimes a pain to put on. But, if you really want to achieve this look, the extra time it takes to put on the tights is worth it. If you don’t have the patience, you can also look into purchasing fishnet socks.
Tumblr media
Plaid
Thanks to Cher from Clueless for rocking her iconic look of wearing a yellow plaid two piece, plaid flannels and skirts are back in style. Well, it always has been for her at least. By incorporating a piece of clothing that has the plaid print, it instantly makes your look go back to the past. Something about the look of plaid makes an outfit more vintage and suits the new season well.  
Tumblr media
Crop Tops
Crop tops are an essential and basic piece to have in your closet, but this trend has been around longer than you would expect. This clothing piece rose during the 90s and is still around in stores. From Forever 21 to Urban Outfitters, any teen fashion clothing stores probably carry and sell crop tops. If you want to join this trend, it isn’t hard to do because you will have no trouble in finding crop tops that suit your style.
Tumblr media
Chokers
This is such a staple accessory that helps add an extra something to someone’s outfit. There are such a wide variety of styles, colors, and designs and finding one that suits your style wouldn’t be as difficult. A few stores that carry a range of different styles are Forever 21, Pacsun, and Urban Outfitters. If you want a choker on the more cheaper side, go to Forever 21. You can never go wrong with their selection.
Tumblr media
Overalls
This is one of my favorite 90s trends that is becoming more popular. Overalls may be on the more pricer side, but you can easily go to your local thrift store to pick up a pair. If you do end up finding a pair of overalls at a thrift store, they may even be vintage and give those vibes in order to spice up any outfit. I personally love wearing overalls and think they look good on. They make an outfit ten times cuter instead of wearing a pair of regular jeans.
Tumblr media
Baggy Windbreakers
Due to the fact that fall is now here and the weather is starting to cool down, layering a baggy windbreaker is your best bet to achieving the 90s look on a chilly day. An easy 90s outfit is a graphic or band t-shirt, a pair of distressed or mom jeans, and a baggy windbreaker. This look is rising all over the internet and is one of the easier trends to follow on the daily. Windbreakers make a look, look effortless, but also have dimension to your outfit.
Tumblr media
Old Skool Vans
If you walk down the halls of your school or even to your local shopping center, you will spot someone wearing Old Skool Vans or even the checkered slip-ons. Either way, these shoes have been in demand ever since back to school season started. There is no surprise why these shoes are such a big hit. They literally go with every single outfit and are comfy, too.
Tumblr media
How many of these 90s looks would you give a try? Don’t be afraid to experiment with any of these trends because you never know what piece you’ll like the most. Stay tuned for next week’s blog, where I may write a little on costumes to help prepare for halloween. Bye loves!

As a little side hobby I decided to start tracking down some of Andrew's wardrobe. For example:
Tumblr media
Multi Neon Stripe Skater Shirt by Topman ($44)
I'll be updating this post as I find more and feel free to add any that you know of as well!
Tumblr media
 Nalu Hawaiian Shirt by AllSaints ($130)
Tumblr media
Leopard Print Short Sleeved Shirt by Topman ($18) [Found by @jimmoriartyisking]
Tumblr media
Red Burnout High Roll T-Shirt by Topman ($32)
Tumblr media
Haze SS (Short Sleeved) by AllSaints ($115)
Tumblr media
Khaki Knitted Polo by Topman ($50)
Tumblr media
Zebra Print Short Sleeve Shirt by Topman ($55)
Tumblr media
Offshore Short Sleeve Slim Fit Shirt by Allsaints ($130)
Tumblr media
Lilac Animal Print Classic Shirt by Topman ($65)
Tumblr media
Zipped Leather Jacket With Ribbing by Sandro Paris ($1,010), Kase Striped Long Sleeved Shirt in Green/Black by Reiss [Yes, the same brand Jim Moriarty wore to his trial in The Reichenbach Fall] ($180), Skinny Stretch-Cotton Pants by COS ($115)
Tumblr media
Vintage Metallica x Pushead Burning Flower & Skull Shirt by Giant (price varies)
Tumblr media
Vintage I Love NY Shirt by no brand (price varies)
Here's the same shirt in an orange version and a red version. The heart on the newer shirts are a lot more symmetrical and skinnier now, whereas the heart on the vintage shirts are a little wider and there's a slight curve inwards towards the bottom right side. Also, there's no restricted symbol on the bottom right of the 'Y' like the newer shirts because the original shirt was made in the late 70s/early 80s and the world hasn't copied this logo a billion times over yet for New York to say anything yet lol
Tumblr media
Vintage Statue of Liberty Manhattan Ride Festival Shirt by Hanes (price varies)
(yes Andrew is this much of a hipster)
Tumblr media
Navy Danger Skull Spade Shirt by Jacks & Jokers  ($49.50)
Tumblr media
Slim Fit Cotton Piqué Polo by Izod Lacoste ($99.50)
I'm 100% sure he's wearing a vintage edition of it, though, because of the wear and tear on his.
Tumblr media
Long Live Southbank T-Shirt by LLSB ($20)
Tumblr media
Gilley's Club Shirt by ShirtManDude ($16.99)
Tumblr media
Heather Grey Reversible Bolt Crew Sweatshirt by AviatorNation ($148)
Also please note your fav is so problematic he bought it in black/charcoal as well and wears it on the reverse side so it looks like he has two entirely different kinds of shirts smh
Tumblr media
Hamilton #YayHamlet Sweatshirt by Pro Fangirl Shop ($25)
Tumblr media
Vintage Mickey Mouse souvenir sweatshirt by Heng (price varies)
This is my favorite discovery out of all these pieces for two reasons:
Tumblr media
1. You see that "Walt Disney Productions" logo at the bottom? That was the official name of what is now known as "The Walt Disney Company" until the mid 80s. So when I say vintage I'm talking authentic old here because that indicates the sweater is at least 30 years old. Plus, they don't produce items with that corporate name on them anymore, so if he ever wears that sweater in front of a hardcore Disney fanatic/historian they might yelp a little bit. Partially because that sweater is considered a collectible, but also because...
2. I'm pretty sure it's been dyed lmao. I don't think he dyed it himself. I think he bought like that from some hipster-thift store-boutique while he was visiting California. Disney wouldn't have released this sweater with Mickey almost entirely washed out like that, especially since it's a souvenir item for the San Francisco area. Even reproductions of vintage shirts don't look like that. It's a little distressed here and there, maybe, but they would have just gone for the full silhouette. Not this mid-way inbetween look. 
So I'm going to assume a box of dye on a heather blue-grey sweater is how you get that color and why Mickey looks like that unless he had one terrible accident in the washer and just decided to rock it that way.
Tumblr media
Daydream Sweatshirt - Neon Blue by AviatorNation ($156)

Tumblr media
2020 Golden Globes - Satin-lapel Soho-fit velvet suit jacket by Paul Smith ($1,395) [For anyone who enjoys a bit of cheeky trivia like I do, Paul Smith was also the designer for Jim Moriarty's tie on the rooftop in The Reichenbach Fall]
Tumblr media
2020 Critics' Choice Awards - Formal Double Breasted Wool Jacket in Vermilion by Berluti ($3,050), Marble Printed Silk Shirt in Nero Bordo by Berluti ($1,030), Formal Wool Lined Regular-Fit Pants in Vermilion by Berluti ($1,030)
Tumblr media
Air Max 1 "Team Red" in Red Orbit/Green Abyss/White by Nike ($110)
Tumblr media

Tumblr media
Meadow '16 in White/Pine Green by Nike ($70)
Tumblr media
Air Max 1 Hyperfuse in OG Blue by Nike ($110)
So it was about this point that I realized ya boi wears nothing but Nikes. Every non-dress shoe you see on his feet are Nike, save for his pairs of Converse\Chuck Taylor All Star Low Tops in Navy & Yellow ($55):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
who are owned by - you guessed it - Nike. He's been wearing those yellow ones since at least that infamous Cambridge Jones photoshoot, though.
BREAKING NEWS: ANDREW SCOTT DECIDED TO THROW A LITTLE SPICE IN HIS SHOE SELECTION BY PURCHASING A PAIR OF REEBOKS WHO ARE OWNED BY ADIDAS - RIVAL SHOE COMPANY TO NIKE. WHO KNEW HE HAD IT IN HIM??
Tumblr media

Tumblr media

Tumblr media
Greggo Black Patent Leather by Christian Louboutin ($850)
Tumblr media
Zebra Print Scarf by Scarfand ($9.99)
(I personally think the scarf is by scalamandre, but I can’t confirm so have the cheap alternative until I can)
Tumblr media
Classic Silk Chiffon Skull Scarf by Alexander McQueen ($295) Jim rubbed off on him just a teensy bit
LOST AND (ALMOST) FOUND
These are pieces that are pretty close to being found, but I'm missing some piece of information about it so if you know let me know! The problem with a lot of his pieces is that they're either old to the point of vintage or fresh off the rack. So you never have a real time frame of when to look cause he'll wear something from the 80s in 2015, which can be a google search nightmare.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Brand: Hermès Paris Price: ? Style Name: ?
Tumblr media
Brand: SuperDry (Osaka 6) Price: ? Style Name: ?
(There’s A LOT of distressed Osaka 6 shirts, but his is super specific cause it was bought like that and has no other defining features other than its vintage feel)
Tumblr media
Brand: Henri Lloyd Price: ? Style Name: ?
(the only information I can find is in another language)
Tumblr media
Brand: Traditional Craft Ltd. Price: ? Style Name: Limited Edition Emerald Isle?
This is the label, but I can’t find anything more about it outside of ebay listings and what I suspect is the official website pointing you to buy the shirt in stores.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Brand: Azzaro Couture for the pants and jacket, Dzojchen for the shirt Price: ? Style Name: ‘Blush Pink Cracked Sand-Washed Silk’ for the shirt, but I have no clue what the pants and jacket are filed under.
The Azzaro suit doesn't seem to have ever been ready to wear fashion for online purchase, but the Dzojchen shirt I can't find at all despite being a fairly standard shirt for the company.
