goodnight giant unwashed water bottle. goodnight loose hairs. goodnight crumbs. goodnight dead vape. goodnight sock. good night yellow pillows. good night stained sheets. goodnight, goodnight, goodnight!

that’s me!

Tavi gevinsons come up is culturally important because she was the first fashion icon whose style was based off larp and moodboard. This is something that is so common now and like every trend is disseminated in the most literal way, for example the rolled up Dickies waistband - people don’t take this trend to mean they can wear an oversized piece in a playful or interesting way - but that they literally should go to the shops and buy a pair of dickies and roll up the waistband. This loss of imagination in fashion is so sad and I think its prevalent in subculture in general. I feel like this is seen with gen z fashion, it’s all literally costumes. There is no longer the existence of personal style onto which you may add elements or be inspired by trends but instead there is a didactic formula that you must choose a look/subculture and then follow the instructions on how to dress. Hence all of the moodboard types “downtown girl” “dark academia” “gorp girl” “coquette” “clean girl” etc etc. and it totally has no longevity or impact, it literally gets rinsed out so fast. Also the subtypes keep getting more and more niche like the pilled trends, ( “Lana del rey lobotomised gold jewellery anorexia girl blogger pilled” ) or whatever.
