The Nazi Impact upon Fashion.

While often worn ironically today, there is no doubt that the Nazi's had a huge impact on fashion. After all they may have done wicked deeds but some of the uniforms were exceptionally well designed particularly the SS uniform and it is strange that such a reprehensible regime designed so much better fashion than the vile crap that constitutes most "fashion" today.

The founder,(of) Hugo Boss had business affiliations with Adolf Hitler during WW2. Albeit that doesn't mean to say he was too a Nazi. My dear, the style of garment is never defined by who wore it, It is defined by who created it.

With the exception of the anti semitism, they had many good policies. No chav scum in Nazi Germany for instance.
Now you mention it, them ISIS uniforms look pretty good too.

Exactly. Minus the murder and the hatred of minorities, they are the model government.

No, they are unsightly. However, their flags have a certain style.

Hugo Boss's affiliations with The Nazi's are well known so you have contributed nothing new. Hugo Boss did have at the least Nazi sympathies and joined the party as well at a time when doing so was not compulsory, however, the majority of the population shared similar views in Germany especially after 1929 so Hugo Boss is not particularly at fault. As for the part in bold, that is a particularly stupid thing to say as when the uniforms were created they were specifically tailored for The Nazi's thus the wearer was fundamental to the garment.
It is hard to say what people are conditioned into first: sex or fashion.
Have you ever tried to goose step in skinny jeans?

Boardwalk Empire fashion is the bomb too.
Actually that haircut was popular in ancient britain

Julius Caesar on Britain

"They do not cut their hair but shave all the rest of the body except the head and upper lip. Wives are shared between groups of ten or twelve men, usually made up of brothers or fathers and sons. The children are reckoned as belonging to the man each girl marries first."
