Just out of curiosity, I was wondering how many people would support a new forum for fashion? For guys who wanna discuss what's in and what's not, or girls who are interested in newest trends.

we should have a new forum called "new forums". it will be a sub forum under comments and suggestions and that's where we can make all these useless threads about new forums go.

I wouldn't mind having a forum on fashion. It would be good we can discuss trends and good deals.

you might as well call it the gay forum if we had a fashion/designer forum.

I don't think there is anything gay about it, I'm all for a Fashion Forum.

There isn't anything gay about having the forum. What I meant was if you thought about fashion and design at the professional level...you get the point.

I think we mentioned it in another thread before, but the best way to get a new forum is to start some discussion on the topic. If there were a large number of fashion topics that were started and members were participating we'd definitely consider it. :)

...hence a forum for people to discuss what new forums to create. i've seen tons of those threads lately.

There have been several but not tons. Even the sports forum is pretty dead and there have always been more threads regarding sports.

To think about it, a fashion forum does make sense. Remember that thread in the off-topic forums "What's Business Casual?" . The fashion forum would've been a good place to discuss that.

If there was such a forum, would one be allowed to plug their own clothing lines and such? My gf makes her own clothes but Ebay doesn't seem like the ideal place to market a new venture as she is more into custom designing and not an actual line ...
Regardless, I like the idea of this forum... I think the only concern is RFD having too many forums.
not sure if this is possible with the software that Derek & Co. use, but judging by the amount of forum suggestions, ppl should be able to flag the forums on/off at their own preference. That way, the main forum page wouldn't be overly 'busy' unless the individual chose to have it that way.
Just some thoughts ..

There's not enough postings about fashion to start a new forum. The food and sports forum are dead enough as it is and no need to add more dead forums.

I agree! If any forum should be created it would be about cars!

Bump for an oooold thread.
I think the number of threads about clothing and fashion has steadily increased over time, so it may be a good idea to consider the clothing/fashion forum again.
A fashion forum might engage the female population of RFD a little bit more, too.

Yeah, it'd help a clueless fashion guy such as myself to know what's in, lol remember the cargo pants trend? It took me till the beginning of this year to realize that it isn't in anymore.
Can't we just have a thread in ot?

Agreed. And if we all followed cruel_angel's 'fashion' advice we'd all be spending hundreds of dollars on several dozen pairs of Nike Dunks with rare colorways.

Actually, I think the interest is there. There have been several threads popping up in OT lately.
As for Cruel_Angel, his advice may not be the best, but people do have the option of ignoring him. Let's not let one person deter from a potentially interesting forum idea.

For someone who's only joined yesterday, I'd rather take your insights with a grain of sand.

I put in my vote for a fahsion forum, It'l be an interesting way to observe fashion trends for those who are fashion friendly & to give tips who have no fashion sense.
I'm sure it'll be filled with discussions about real vs. imitation shoes & apparel, Nike AF1's & dunks, Jordans, BAPE & Bapestas, Lacoste polos, and bootleg handbags.
Suprised its taken this long for it to come along, I think it makes more sense than a forum dedicated to Food & Liquor

Just for clarification... What I would want to see is a "Clothing and Accessories" section (accessories such as watches, jewelry, etc.). I'm not into "fashion" per se, but I do wear clothes. :)

A fashion forum for a predominantly male membership of which half of there mothers still buy their clothes? That's a great idea !!

I'd like to see a Jewelery/Clothing/Watches subdirectory under the "Buy, Sell, and Trading Post". Heck there is already a "Cell Phones & Accessories" heading, which is very specific in itself.

speak for yourself
and maybe such members would benefit from this forum, so they can tell their moms what to buy

how about "Health & Beauty" forum.

Yes Health and beauty and fashion section...I would post there. Probably way more than the two posts I have in offtopic, which were about hair and beauty anyways ;)

Off topic is ok but not ideal for "Health and Beauty and Fashion" IMO, I've seen some unanswered posts pushed down because they are competing with other topics..
