Stop telling your Dad to beat the creases out of his those ancient, starchy Wranglers: Richard's Rocking Normcore, OK? New York Magazine describes the 1995 food court aesthetic as "going back to a time before adolescence, before we learned to differentiate identity through dress." In other words, it's a premeditated search for things to wear that make you look naturally like other people. In other other words, clothes. This is not a new idea, but sit down. Are you ready for Normcore? Let us help you to gain the ability to spot Normcore out of captivity while we help ourselves. A process together is a process forever (#Normcore).

a thing that is due to be a trend is white people with perms. it's been 30-40 years since white men got perms. it's time again.

If there's anything I've learned from D it's that being a dad is all pastel skinny jeans and shoegaze
