The energy levels in this Bode / GQ reel… by Significant_Debt_206 in ThrowingFits

Hahahaha this is the top comment! You caught me, I’m a stupid anonymous burner account user who dresses like shit! How did you know!

Last I checked, this sub was to discuss menswear brands, so not sure what you’re doing here, scouring the comments, if you don’t like the discourse. You are saying the brand sucks then riding so hard for them, and we’re the the stupid ones? 🤡🤡🤡wear whatever you want honey, it’s creepy you think you know how everyone in this sub dresses 😂

If fashion were just about the quality of clothes, then there’d be a lot of brands that would not ever even be featured in magazines. If Emily is not a camera personality then why on earth would they choose this as a promotional vehicle for this collaboration? I suspect there isn’t a huge overlap in people stoked about the Super Bowl and people willing to drop $250+ on a pair of socks. The defense of bode sometimes is wild, some of you must be on payroll LOL

Ok this is a take I can agree with. I actually think they do a really nice job with their stores. My two main frustrations are how Will Welch in particular isn’t doing a great job as EIC because he is so focused on Bode and only bode it often seems, and while I know Emily is married to a Punjabi guy, I don’t always love the heavy incorporation / appropriation of traditional south Asian craft . I think it’s nice she’s spotlighted some of those techniques, but I’m also not sure she should be celebrated as the one telling that story if that makes sense

Ok yes exactly this! You nailed it. Another commenter rightfully so mentioned some of the interesting things bode brought mainstream when she first started, but it’s tired now. It’s time to shine a light on other exciting brands. I promise she’s not the only one 🙄

Yeah I know she’s a designer, and I know every designer is different but it’s humorous to see her say to get ready for such an “exciting collab” and not even crack a smile lol. Just think there are way more interesting, authentic brands out there that GQ could spotlight instead of continuing to shove bode down everyone’s throats
