I am a 70 year old retired university lecturer. It is wonderful to discover I have been a devotee of dark academia for the last 50 odd years without even knowing it.😊
UNDERATED COMMENT. Say one more time for the lost boys in the back, trying to buy a personality. 📢📢 You were created to be more that just this, to only be define by this. That being said I am trying incorporate some peaky blinders swagger to my life.
nah there's a difference between a nerd and a sophisticated person/bookworm types, nerds are more so STEM career oriented, are always wearing thick framed glasses, they don't trim their hair, and they wear ill fitting pants and hoodies, their interest lies in very geeky stuff that aren't great conversation starters unless the other person is a nerd too dark academia more so gives me the impression of a very well-spoken, well dressed, intelligent individual with a stylish hairstyle and glasses, who is more interested in the humanities such as history or English or art, and who you can easily start an interesting conversation with by merely asking what book they are reading (it's not gonna be something weird like hentai or a star wars fan fiction, maybe it would be something fascinating like A Hundred Years of Solitude or Pride and Prejudice) tl;dr think the difference between Timothee Chalamet/Laurie (or the character of Friedrich) in Little Women vs Abed from Community, both have their charm but it's not the same kind of smarts
Nah bro, make it your own. Rock the dreads and pick the parts you like and curate your own style. You don’t need to completely embody the aesthetic, but rather you should take pieces you like from all over and try to blend them into your own unique style. All the best, man.
They're both generally logo less. Just go for less flashy prep stuff and incorporate lighter tones like beige and white more. It's basically light academia combined with preppy.
Aesthetics is a beautiful word. It is Philosophical and implies refined taste. Style is a general term for how one wears his clothes; aesthetics, on the other hand, is wearing clothes like art.
Vou dizer em português para poucos verem mesmo, mas meu... se você não é o esteriótipo... não tente imitar. Beleza, pode achar bonito, mas se leitura, meditação e estudo não faz parte de quem você é, se você não é apaixonado por isso naturalmente, então "dark academia" não é seu estilo hahahah. Ok, ok, vista-se como quer, de repente na moda você se encaixe, mas o esteriótipo de 'estudioso' pode ficar de fora. Se você é jovem, pode começar sua jornada intelectual. Há algo que essa estética valoriza: universidade. Busque entrar numa e seja o melhor nela. Seja estudioso, garanto que vale a pena (não financeiramente, lamento, e digo por experiência).
Heads up boys, new personality just dropped.
Adding it to my reading list 🤓

Please people you don't have to restructure your entire personality around the clothes you wear
Exactly
Cap...the point of having a personality that it changes with the environment and emotions.
But that's like, the most fun part of fashion

Glad someone commented this. Ppl should experiment with styles that fit their personality and embrace who they are already
As nerd I can confirm we usually wearing sweater, reading a books, playing instruments like mayonnaise, and always trim our hair neat but still edgy

dark academia more so gives me the impression of a very well-spoken, well dressed, intelligent individual with a stylish hairstyle and glasses, who is more interested in the humanities such as history or English or art, and who you can easily start an interesting conversation with by merely asking what book they are reading (it's not gonna be something weird like hentai or a star wars fan fiction, maybe it would be something fascinating like A Hundred Years of Solitude or Pride and Prejudice)

@@grey_f98 yes definitely
this is actually a really cool aesthetic. Id rather go with a more minimalistic version of this but whatever suits you guys.
Commenting on this to remember to come back to this video whenever
People with dark academia are so attractive
Yo, being dark and in academia thought this would be easy, and now I’ll have to sacrifice my dreadlocks for the aesthetic
Nooo you dont
nah dreads could actually go well with it
Nah bro, make it your own. Rock the dreads and pick the parts you like and curate your own style. You don’t need to completely embody the aesthetic, but rather you should take pieces you like from all over and try to blend them into your own unique style.
All the best, man.
No you don't!!
I think dreads would look sick in this styles.
Gen Z has discovered winter clothing and given it a name 😂
Interesting. I have heard the term mentioned before but this description with photographs is very enlightening.
I think the varsity college wrap/scarf is essential.
How I imagine everyone in Donna Tartt books to look
Exactly. I was thinking the same
This is good for cold weather. For places that are actually hot, unfortunately this not works
Remove the coats and wear thin sweaters without inner wear, or wear up to the neck t-shirts.
Ayyy, new personality to hunt down
Do a skinhead one plsss
How does dark academia work in the hot summer?
I wanna try this kind of outfit but they seems expensive than your usual t shirt/sweater
It's actually fairly affordable if you thrift this stuff! A bit location dependent though.
Can’t forget the posh English accent
finally a clear cut guide for men
Can you do aesthetic breakdowns for Asian ethnic men?
Facts! We are never represented in media especially the men(I think I only saw one Asian man in the video)
I would like that too and that is not based in KPOP aesthetic like most asian men fashion I hate Kpop for a start
80s yakuza style: long black overcoats, sunglasses and wide tie
@@MatteuBall unironically solid matchup🔥
I can do all except the hair 😂
I like both old money and dark academia. Could you help me combine these two, i really need help please
You mean using regular money instead of debit? I would suggest investing in a good and nice wallet.
They're both generally logo less. Just go for less flashy prep stuff and incorporate lighter tones like beige and white more. It's basically light academia combined with preppy.
Please do Boho aesthetic

Can you do the country or cowboy rugged aesthetic
Now we know what's it "all about" :)))))
Definitely me🤣
Can you please send the background ost link
I love this type of videos discussing outfit ideas but I cringe at the use of the word "aesthetic". The proper word is style isn't it?
Naah tbh aesthetic is more on point here
it is aesthetic dude,can't change that
Aesthetics is a beautiful word. It is Philosophical and implies refined taste. Style is a general term for how one wears his clothes; aesthetics, on the other hand, is wearing clothes like art.

Fake INTJs be like:

Why is everyone white? Also its important to approach everything with humility and passion. Sure you may dress nice but don’t be pretentious.
What's wrong with everyone being white?
Dark Academia just means the person does not have a higher education.
DA sounds really boring...
this is dishonest roleplay
please do not do this especially if you're not of class
Why is everyone white…
