The worst trends of the year, according to men’s fashion obsessives
24 December, 2022
We asked some of the attendees for their thoughts on the coolest person in Los Angeles, the worst trends of the year, and their predictions for the coming one
The “Throwing Fits” holiday party, toasting the popular podcast that ridicules and reveres men’s fashion equally, began just after 5 p.m. last Thursday, when Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris, the hosts of the show, stepped out of a car in front of Mohawk General Store in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los Angeles. They cradled packs of Budweiser and Modelo like infants they had rescued from a gas station.
Guests dressed in baggy workwear pants, chic but fraying shirts, limited-edition sneakers and nubby fleeces. Many were regulars of the store or avid listeners of the podcast. Inside, there was a table with wine, liquor and CBD beverages. Slowly the crowd ballooned and spilled outside the shop, a popular boutique owned by the husband-and-wife team Kevin and Bo Carney. Its stock list — Our Legacy, Dries Van Noten, Stüssy, Bode — is the sort that a listener of “Throwing Fits” would find appealing.
This is the second year that Harris and Schlossman have held the party, and has been a chance for them to create a real-world meet-up for their internet friends. All were welcome.
“I think anytime you have an online internet friendship and then you actually meet the person and you both realize that you’re not weirdos, you realize that connection is real,” Harris said.
