Fussy with clothing?

Post Reply New Topic

I hate all tags with a burning passion & I remove them religiously. I hate scratchy lace, wool touching my skin-I like only the finest cashmere that doesn't scratch. I hate panty hose nylons, polyester, tight jeans, thin socks, collared shirts, blouses, THONGS, any t-shirt that pinches at the armpits, chinos, leggings, yoga pants, irritating frou-frou bras and believe it or not, creepy slippery silk against my bare skin.

when i was ickle i had to wear some horrific clothes now i wear what im comfortable in and i can only get things in certain shops and i have lots of the same t shirt lol.
My AS kid also can't wear school trousers they are too tight so i buy black sport smart trousers
labels have to be cut out

I went through a phase where I hated to wear jeans. I now wear nothing but jeans. I don't really recall much about my childhood.

I was fussy with the clothing being uncomfortable, too small, or un-matching

I was like that with anything loose. I couldn't stand it. My belts all had to almost cut off my circulation and my ponytail practically pulled my hair out from the roots. I am not so bad about that now but I am still fussy about how soft my clothes are. I can't stand anything the least bit scratchy

I can't stand blue jeans- I either wear chorduroy or different fabrics. If I find something I like, I buy it in every color it comes in twice over because I know how rare it is for me to find a pair of pants that I like or feel comfortable in. lol. I was picky when I was a kid too: My hair was always in a ponytail or bun (well, it still is), no short sleeved tshirts without a white long sleeved shirt underneath, no yellow or green socks, no laced shoes, etc. The list goes on.

I was a pretty weird kid indeed.

I never realised so many other people had the same problems as me with clothing!

Alot of things you guys mentioned, I also hated, but like I thought I would, I forgot to mention them.

It wasn't so much the seam with me, it was that annoying little "bump" at the end of the seam. I used to get in such a fit if my socks had that little seam bump. I'd sit there for hours if I had to trying to fix the bump so that I couldn't feel it. Sometimes, I'd demand another pair of socks, and if they were the same, too, I'd want another pair until I finally found a pair that didn't have the bump. I remember a good few tantrums I got into because of sock bumps.



Same here. This is one of the reasons why I hate wearing more than 2 layers. You get more bunches that way, and they're harder to fix. I cannot STAND it when I have bunches in my sleeves/clothes and so, one of the reasons why I wouldn't wear cardigans and things under my coat.



I wouldn't wear scratchy lace either. Luckily, I never had too. As for the wool though, I as NEVER able to wear anything woolen, not only would it scratch me like crazy, but also, whenever I touch wool with my hands, it makes me squirm and I have to wipe my hands on something cotton, like a towel, to get the feeling off me. The wiping the hands is more a psychological thing though, the feeling will go after a few seconds of letting go of the wool, but I won't feel better until I wipe my hands. I dunno why that is.



I hate tight jeans. I also can't wear trousers that sit on my hips, "hipsters" I think they're called. Unfortunately, it's hard to find pants that aren't hipsters, because that's the trend currently, and in Liverpool, most stores only cater for the fashion followers. And the ones that don't, either don't have my size, or look way too old for me (being only 18, and all)

Can't wear thongs. Never. They irritate me all damn day. Same for bras, I hate bras, but I can't really not wear them, so I do, but I feel them ALL day and they bug me to no end. I take it off as soon as I can.

I also hate t-shirts that pinch at the arm pits and t-shirts that are made of stretch or elastic material are from hell. I can't stand them, they ALWAYS ride up when I put a coat or something over them, no matter what size I get. Same for leggings. They always ride up, feel EXTREMELY restricting and uncomfortable. My mum used to dress me in leggings as a kid, and apparently, I hated them and she soon stopped me wearing them, thank goodness.

I hate labels and holes in socks

I am also very fussy about my clothes, but I cannot quantify the "wrongness" about certain garments, I just can't wear the m they make my skin crawl and make me NEED to escape

I hated/still hate shirt tags.

I hated/still hate those bumps in the end of socks.

Clothes must have sense of symetry on my body.

I am almost always found wearing Jeans and a T-shirt. Some labels are better than others, most notibly the satin type labels, as well as the transferred labels that are now on almost all pocket T-shirts. The ones that I can't stand are the plasticised labels that are still on some items of clothing that I don't buy. Sometimes I am bothered by the toeseam in the ends of socks, and holey socks are bad as well.

I have a hard time picking out clothes, not because of the feel, but the way they look; isn't being an Aspie include lack of being in fashion? (I've read something like this in an article posted on a site by NeantHumaine)

As far as the feel? I really only have a hard time with long-sleeved shirts. The sleeves irritate me like crazy, yet I can wear long-sleeved jackets with no problem at all.

As far as being simply fussy with something, I HAVE to have my AC/DC cap on whevever I leave my front door (the cap in my avatar). If I forget it, once in a blue moon, I get pissed, I will beg my parents to go back. If I forget it in my locker at work, I will at least wear one of my other caps. (I am attempting to build up a collection for the sake of having something to look forward to.)

I like my clothes to fit loosely. I can't stand fitted clothes, and they don't flatter me, anyways.

Why the hell did Adam and Eve eat that damn apple? We wouldn't be having these problems.

It's kinda hard for Adam and Eve to eat the apple if the only known place they existed was as a child's story in a book. =P

CockneyRebel: So do I... I think I have a total of two shirts that are actually fitted, and even then, they're not that fitted compared to what some people wear. (How the bloody hell can people stand to wear those tight jeans with an equally tight shirt I'll NEVER know. x_X)

A couple problems I have with clothes are:


Tags in shirts...they bother me so much.


Wearing socks makes the folicles of my feet hair hurt,it's kinda like when you sleep in a weird position and your scalp hurts in the morning.
