Can dressing well partially hide your ugliness?
Can dressing well partially hide your ugliness?
No, you would just look like you're compensating
You would have to find a style that goes with you well. You can't look at GQ chads and dress like them.
It can certainly help!
Wow, I might as well throw all of my decent clothes in the bin. Thanks user.
Yeah. Dressing good and having a beard are good suppliments to having not so good genes. Then again you need good genes to have a good beard too.
So not going out like a homeless makes no difference at all?
Hang around with other ugly people and you won't have too
Don't listen to this faggot. He doesn't understand what he is talking about. I assure you going out and looking like you give a damn is better than going looking like a trashy bum.
Forgot to say this discussion obviously involves a healthy BMI
Absolutely yes. You have to dress well if you're ugly if you want a chance.
Here's the thing: this is exactly what you tell someone you are doing if they ask.
Ever heard someone saying something along the line of "this shirt isn't doing him any favor"? There are clothes which can help you to hide your powerlevel - truth is, most people judge a book by its cover, they can't know we're retarded until they've read it. Just don't buy the fashion lie, they use models for their clothes for a reason, and you won't be dissapointed.
no but it helps
that guy is dressed like shit though
that was the closest thing I could find by matching togheter "ugly" and "fashion"
Agreed, that is a corny fucking outfit
Don't ever wear those pants, they are hideous and clownish
Don't ever wear clothing that is too tight. At best if you're hot you are making yourself look like a stripper and strippers are for gross old chicks
Marginally. The biggest fashion pill to swallow is that no matter how hard you try, if you have a bad frame and ugly face you're always going to look like shit compared to someone with a good frame and handsome face. Chad can slip into the crumpled tshirt and jeans he wore yesterday and look a million times better than beta Bob in his expensive tailored suit.
Fashion is a sorting mechanism for people at the same level of attractiveness.
>partially
This is the key word. To answer your question with this word in mind; of course, dressing well does help a bit in PARTIALLY making you less ugly.
However, the best things you can do to actually attack root ugliness is to A) get muscular and lose weight and B) work on your face with acne treatments and plastic surgery if necessary.
Anything else, like another poster has already said, is just compensation.
>compensation
The reptile brain can't see through makeup, you need a fucking smartphone app for that
>want to dress differently
>don't want people to think I'm trying too hadd
>continue dressing in my old shit clothes
I can easily buy clothes online but wearing them out is another thing. A big hurdle like trying to initiate a conversation with a stranger.
Bad frame? Unless you have very narrow shoulders with a healthy bmi you should look decent when dressed well with any frame
I'm making the switch over a period of time, I was previously dressing like a meth dealer and over time I switched my clothes trying to get closer to OP's pic
People will notice if you change overnight but they wont if you do it over time
Hi /fa/. Keep trying to cope if you want, but the ratios and size of your skeleton and face are all that really matter re desirability. "Decent" is a meaningless term as you're in direct competition with other males.
>makeup
Are you implying that a man wear makeup to cover up imperfections? It's a bold strategy but I don't know how effective this will be for most men...
> "Decent" is a meaningless term as you're in direct competition with other males.
But when you're starting from being a hopeless subhuman, going to "decent" level would actually be something
>Are you implying that a man wear makeup to cover up imperfections?
No you obtuse faggot. I mean makeup is compensation.
That look screams I'm a soyboy.
No. It just makes you more tolerable to be around. No roastie is going to think "Well he is ugly, but his clothes match so I'll fuck him."
What do you think fashion is for? I bet you're not hot enough to walk around naked without getting arrested so what's it to you if ugly people respect themselves?
It doesn't only scream it. It is the fucking hindu mantra of soyboy.
>obtuse
Not really my fault when your reply was terribly worded and wildly obscure.
>makeup is compensation
Of course it is! But no one cares because pretty much only women use makeup. So are breast and ass implants but men lap that shit up daily...
The lesson here is that no one cares when a woman compensates but when men compensate it's a negative and seen as a byproduct of a fragile masculine ego. Confidence is key with men and compensation signals a lack of confidence
> It just makes you more tolerable to be around
While this doesn't mean you'll get pussy overnight, I guess it's still an improvement isn't it?
wow confirmed retard.
> Confidence is key with men and compensation signals a lack of confidence
Do you honestly believe models are not using all kinds of makeup / dressing tricks / steroids to look how they do?
Hell models use fucking drugs/bulimia in order to be in that line of work, that isn't confidence
dressing well and grooming yourself properly can add 0.5-3 points to you.
so if you really watto look better and feel better you should try it
>confirmed retard
I can feel the cope from here, soy boy
Of course male models use a ton of makeup and dressing tricks, but that's just part of the industry.
Some use steroids and some use bulimia/drugs to keep their weights down, but the majority of male models were simply born with beautiful faces and frames. And obviously, they have the money to throw down for cocaine and it's simply a facet of the party lifestyle and less so much an appetite suppressant.
It's largely genetic. You can try and become a male model but it's a hard road if you're not naturally beautiful. No doubt they've been praised their whole lives for simply being beautiful so you can't argue with the fact that most male models are extremely confident, even if they are depressed.
Idk why you're arguing so hard, you must be one of those soyboys like in the OP who thinks if he dresses well enough he can cover up his recessive chin. Sorry mouthbreather, Chad was born a male model and you'll never look like him, no matter how many of his clothes you waste your paychecks on
Then fucking show me what dressing well looks like
> inb4 casually dressed steroid addicts
With muscles you could dress as a priest and still get pussy overnight
just go on /fa/ until you find a style you like and build around it
>implying that /fa/ will recommend something other then techwear
So the guy in your picture is not a walking soyboy but a guy dressing businness casual is?
At least businness casual is relatable but techwear is ridiculed by 99% of society
If clothing made you look good then all models would be average or ugly guys instead of turbo chads so that people would be even more impressed at how efficient the clothing are at making you look good.
no one can afford techwear on neo /fa/
i didn't call anyone a soyboy, i just said the guy in OP dressed like shit. there's no reason to dress "business casual" if you aren't at a business.
anybody know what you call the cut of his jeans?
i think dressing well in an inconspicuous way will give a better impression but you have to find a balance where it doesn't look like ostentation or compensating
don't listen to this faggot. dress how you want. you're a self respecting man and putting on nice clothes is like polishing a turd.
Not really, no. If you're going to try expending any effort on clothes, do so because you enjoy doing it. Doing it for any other reason is a waste of time. There will always be people who take it as a way to view you negatively or think your choices are in poor taste/autistic. A well-fitted suit will not hide the fact that you're ugly. Just do it because you enjoy it. If you don't enjoy it, don't bother.
