    Yeah, streetwear is fashion rooted in youth subcultures. Another somewhat active fashion community is [email protected]

      Curiosity made me check if [email protected] existed and it does but it is not very active—I’d imagine any not-man looking for fashion communities on the Fediverse might not bite on male fashion advice lol. Now I am also wondering if just plain “fashion advice” exists, or anything for nonbinary people. Back when I was on Reddit I wasn’t aware of such a subreddit, I was only aware of malefashionadvice and femalefashionadvice.

      I’ll be honest, I am not even qualified to advise on fashion. I am sure I am not colorblind but things like “oh, that color washes you out” or “that color flatters you” have never been something I am able to see. I feel I’m missing a lot of knowledge like this, but I get by because none of my clothes cause me trouble in daily life—no pain, unexpected restricted movement, or general discomfort; people compliment my outfits sometimes; and I’m happy with what I’m wearing.

      Also, good luck with the community and I hope you find posters, as someone who is also one of the primary posters in some communities I’m in and hopes others would interact sometime.

        Reddit had (has 😝) several fashion subs. Male Fashion was popular for all genders (they grew beyond their name). r/Streetwear (of which I was a former mod 🥲) had 4.6 million subscribers. There were several other subs, some general, some niche.

        I don’t buy into that whole Color Me Beautiful stuff. You should wear what you like and not feel constrained because of your skin’s undertones or whatnot smh.

        Appreciate the well wishes! Hope your communities flourish as well!

              The instance is federated,.but the communities were quiet or only used for mirroring content from Reddit.

              If you know more mods or people who want to migrate, I’d love to help.
