But wouldn't they look less ridiculous if your pants were covering them like in OP rather than sitting on top of the shoes like pic related

because the clown shoe effect comes from the height of the shoe so having your pants cover it would negate that to some degree right?

I'm even slightly shorter than you and I still wear some pieces from similar designers. I also know several other manlets who are even shorter than me and who pull it off in a great way

Rick owens in general is not made for you, you're too short. Stacked jeans will make you look like a dwarf, and most of his tops are way too long to look good on you. But there are "short" RO tees that are still a little bit longer than the norm, you can wear those. You can also wear low RO shoes. Also rick leather jackets can look good on manlets

Instead of rick, you should focus on japanese brands : Devoa, Viridi-Anne, Yohji, etc. They are more expensive and harder to find though

Also have a look at Damir Doma, it's easier to wear than rick for a manlet

Oh and if you can find some Lentrian, I have a few pieces and their small sizes fit good on short people

Tbh I've been into fashion for 5 years or so and I still look like shit 9/10 times I wear avant garde shit

It's actually hard to pull off, unless you go for a total look and dress fully in one specific designer. You have to be aware of your body type, of normal proportions, of how the designers you're wearing have intended to fuck these proportions up, and then you must figure out how to do something out of it. And short people have it particularly hard, because if we fail at that we don't only look like clueless morons, but also like fucking midgets

So you should begin with normal brands in order to learn the proper codes before thinking about breaking them. Otherwise you'll pay ridiculous amounts of money to look like shit

>> No.12096388

>>12096368
I'd say it depends on where you live

In France I consider someone to be slightly short if he's right under 175 cm, and to be actually short starting from 170 cm

But if you're Dutch of from black Africa for instance I guess the standard would be quite higher

Height only a bit better feeling about yourself which will be eliminated by some bad feature like small dick or weak chin. If you don't accept you body as it is you will always find some flaw in it.
