Using Midjourney and the Aesthetics Wiki to experiment with fashion ideas. Here’s “Plant Mom”:
“Adventure Pulp”. I love his shirt belt.
“Desertwave”. This is actually the look I’ve been doing for years, but now I’m in SF I gotta switch it up. Very Yeezy aesthetic obviously.
“Atompunk”. This is incredible.
“Cyber Fairy Grunge”. Kind of mori boy meets techwear. Hate this.
“Pale Grunge”. The oversized sweater is great, also the hair. Someone could pull this off for sure, not me though as I’m not a fuckboy.
“Urban Fantasy”. This jacket fucking slaps. Otherwise just mall ninja though.
“Southern Gothic”. Two waistcoats? Get the fuck out of here. I kinda like the pants though.
“Pastel Goth”. The bruise lipstick goes hard, tbh. This hair would be hell to maintain though. And of course, fuckboy.
“Lo-Fi”. Chill. I feel like this is popular already.
“Arcadecore”. You just know this guy’s name is Daniel.
“Youthquake”. Some brave choices here. I like the patterned jackets and ties with solid colors underneath. Food for thought.
“Soft Apocalypse”. I like the lines. And the boots.
“Dungeonpunk”. These are obviously very runway, but I think a toned-down version of this could be cool. I like the hoods.
“Jamcore”. I’m just trying random things now. This is cute though.
“Cyberdelic”. Yes. 100. No notes. He is literally me.
“Cassettepunk”. Feel like this could come back any minute. Seeing a lot of mullets lately.
“Cryptid Academia”. I like the coat and the bag. The tie is, uh… I guess it’s utilitarian?
“Old Hollywood”. Classy af. Not seeing this come back anytime soon though. Hats are high maintenance.
“Driftcore”. Love this. If you really love cars, your pants should match your paint job.
“Pixel Medieval Fantasy”. Baggy sweaters yes. Baggy tights no. Get a codpiece.
“Villaincore”. More like Victimcore. Hard no.
“Voidcore”. This actually works somehow.
Here we have the web design aesthetics: “Flat Design”, “Neubrutalism”, “Glassmorphism”, and “Corporate Memphis”. I’m a tentative yes on all of these.
“Rollerwave”. I think everything here is fine except those bangs. Prison.
“Mythpunk”. Absolutely not. If you look like this, DM me for emergency assistance.
“Medicalcore”. This… kind of… goes? I don’t know. If it’s your thing, I guess.
“Hauntology”. OK, Zoomer.
“Liminal Space”. This is good. Obviously he got the thousand-yard stare from trying to pick a bag.
“Northerness”. Very Oregon. No.
“Electric Powwow”. Yes. Not for me obviously, but if you can get away with it.
“Lunarpunk”. Love this coat but I suspect it only works in bisexual lighting. What does this look like on the subway?
“Kingcore”. Powerful look. Wear this to the club but only if you’re in the VIP section. If someone spills their drink on it, you have the right to kill them.
“Pearly”. Conditional yes. If you can find the right occasion. I want to see him and the last guy make out.
“Dreamcore”. Absolutely. Take my money. What are you waiting for?
“Sigilkore”. Good look but I imagine the chains rattle like Jacob Marley.
“Sizz”. Cool. Makes it hard for other ships to determine your heading.
“Word Cloud”. Uhh… at least it’s educational?
“Utopian Scholastic”. I take it back, I hate education. This is not a place of honor.
“Dream Punk” by request. Idk. Island Boy energy.
what about "dreampunk"

“Ultraviolet Crush”. I fuck with this honestly.
“Trashcore”. I know like fifty millennials that look like this. Hard no.
“Ghostcore”. Meh. Good way to disguise nerd neck.
“Laborwave”. Hell yes, comrade. Commoditize this immediately.
“Ravencore”. If you look like this guy you can pull this off. But if you want to pull this off, I guarantee you don’t look like this guy.
“Retro-Futurism”. I dig the shades. Leather flight suit looks sweaty though.
“Slimepunk”. I hate how much I love this.
“McBling”. I fully expect to see zoomers wearing this any minute.
“Lunarpunk”. I need every part of this image.
“Roguecore”. Unfortunate. Some good asymmetry here but mostly if you dress like this, expect to be followed around by security guards.
“Scrapper”. I mean. Only if you’re a kung fu bodyguard? But if you are a kung fu bodyguard, why the heck not.
“Mad Scientist”. Looks heavy. The glasses are cool but like… wouldn’t they be hard to see through?
“Labcore”. This on the other hand. Genius. I don’t need the pocket accessories but dip dye lab coats are pure alpha.
“Superflat Pop”. Yes. Positive. Confirmed. Assuredly.
“Werewolf”. This is deeply stupid but I love the lapels.
“Witch House”. Honestly… does this work? This kind of works. Like if you’re already not trying to talk to women.
“Magewave”. The foot rags are horrible but I like the… bucket hood?
“Zen Tranquility”. Sure, if you’re a buff Japanese guy. Otherwise this is just pajamas. Actually, is he napping?
“NATOwave”. I’m running out of sane options so here’s nightmare Luke Skywalker.
“Monstercore”. We’re done here.
