reversecommuter has a new fave word. NORMCORE.
Norm Core = The kind of luxury so stealth that the person wearing the item may be the only one (other than the designer) who knows how luxurious it is.
In other words, buh-bye label whores, hello intense style and quality.
Kirna Zabete, Hirshleifers and net-a-porter are perfect examples of retailers who completely embrace NormCore…and coincidentally are reversecommuter’s all time obsessive fave boutiques!
Norm Core. That’s a strange concept. What’s the point of showing off if nobody knows you’re showing off? :~)
With you on that !!!
I guess that’s one luxury of living jn the Midwest – 95% of people I meet never even heard of Hermes. So I can wear cheaper stuff and be STYLIN!
Fashion and style are a personal expression, which clearly you have mastered!
I think it’s great when the spotlight can be taken off of the big labels and focused on those can be fashionable with what they have. No one else should have to know how expensive your outfit is for it to be fashionable. I fully embrace this concept. Thanks for drawing it to my attention!
Completely agree!
And you are welcome. 🙂
NormCore, -I love that word…and I like stealth too:) Style isn’t label-bound, but could you please tell that to the label-flashing divas down here:)
Label whores exist all over the place. I for one am psyched that THE IT BAG has settled down, that logos are getting smaller if not just on labels on the inside of garments.
I love fashion but I don’t love being an advertisement.
interesting!!
Thanks so much!
Very interesting 🙂 Happy Friday! xx
