I often find that when someone intensely hates something without good reason there is jealousy involved


I.e I bet everyone that has said they HATE people that wear vests do not have a 6 pack
 
why do clubs and promoters thing t shirts are trendy.one t shirts make you sweat like hell.why don;t they start making really nice shirts.short sleeved.something you could look nice in and wear anywhere.

To be fair, some of them may have a 6 pack of beer.

I dont have a 6 pack :lol: However, I would wear a vest in the day wherever I am if it is hot(and I didn't have such a big beer belly:p). Wearing a vest is wrong in a nightclub, but so is a football shirt and caps etc there are plenty of them in Ibiza clubs. Although this is purely my opinion, there is no rules in life that says we should all wear clothes that wont offend anyone else.
Live and let live, I don't like the majority of vest wearing woofters in Ibiza or anywhere else for that matter not because of the vest but because for the majority of them they are *****s :p We are all there for a good time though, and if they don't bother me then they are not harming me. Therefore I will ignore. Simples.
 
Lul I do, I wore a vest whilst out there too back in June.

Difference is, it was during the day when it was boiling, and I wasn't walking around hoping everybody was looking at me.

I must confess all this talk of "People should be free to wear what they want, it's Ibiza etc etc is lost on me with regard to the vest & baseball hat wearing brigade".

The hippy free spirit has surely been shot to pieces when 50% of the crowd are all dressed the same, not because it's what they want to wear but because they feel they have to conform to some kind of latest cool dude fashion code.

Sorry to bang on here ... but ...

It's surely more a reflection of the commercialism which draws them to the island in the first place ? Surely the point is they will see the other 50% turned out differently (whereas many who stay at home especially away from London will not) and therefore they may begin to think about different things to wear which are a better expression of who they are as an individual from there ?

Many of these are young people, often insecure, some of whom have never been away from their home towns. There's a long way to go for them to reach an understanding of the "hippie free spirit" in any way ... but the fact they're starting to go to Ibiza is a pretty good early step ? To ridicule young people who haven't been exposed to a more cosmopolitan environment much or had the privilege of seeing other ways to go, and as a result follow what they are fed by a powerful commercial and peer-driven trend, just doesn't seem right to me, sorry.

Far prefer to look beyond what they are wearing and check out how they behave in a club or on the dancefloor. Amongst those dressed in 'uniform', you can instantly spot the ones who feel the music and really live the dance. Those are likely people who will still be clubbing in 20 years' time wondering why all the youth are wearing teflon cybersuits and pasta-strainers on their heads, as dictated by Zorbmag's Ibiza Fashion, 2032.

It says nothing meaningful about a person whether at a point in time they follow a fashion trend. Every person's life journey has to start somewhere and it's just another thing for people to work through in their own ways in their own time. As an older person, surely it isn't that hard to take a step back and see that .. and to accept where people are at a particular point in time as being simply a snapshot of one aspect of their life development ?
 
Good grief, sounds like an exert from a social care handbook;

"Many of these are young people, often insecure, some of whom have never been away from their home towns."


Makes one wonder where all the people came from that made the Ibiza vibe what it was for many decades if the latest generation have to dress in identikit fashion due to insecurities and never having been away from their home town.
 
Ibiza wasn't commercialised then in the way it is now. The club-focused media and magazines weren't pushing compliance with an "accepted" image, were they.

The media and promotional industry is far more to blame than the kids themselves.

The day the vest died
This Saturday
In front of Itaca
8pm

The "Vests Suck" demonstration will be widely credited for causing the official demise of the vest this Saturday.

Let's do the world a favour and have a mass burning of these vests and show Ibiza that the anti-vest movement is in full effect.
