New video format: “Folds are ugly” – Sapristi #1

Hi, it's Nicolò and...

Yes, I made a video. Yes, it's brand new.

You may have noticed that I was absent from our YouTube channel for a good part of the summer. Already, in my last Sape m'en Cinq, I announced that this format was starting to tire me a little. And in the end, this episode 20 will have been the last!

It’s true that after more than four and a half years at BonneGueule, a lot of things have changed for me.

I still remember my very first videos: I was absolutely not used to the camera, and rather destabilized by this "baptism of fire" in video. Needless to say, I was already very happy when I managed to make something clean, so I didn't really ask myself the question of whether I liked my format or not!

And then time passed. I covered many subjects, I got used to the camera... My tastes evolved, my way of thinking too. The very structured exercise of Sape m'en Cinq no longer appealed to me.

I realized that to continue telling you about things that are close to my heart, I needed something that was a little more like me! However, I have always liked to debate and take opinions from the sidelines. Finding the little beast and making people think, that's what I like!

And thus Sapristi was born.

Gee, it will be two things:

First, we will start from questioning a common opinion on fashion, the fashion market, style, or clothing itself.

I will tackle the obvious that is not, the clichés that die hard, and the urban legends, and the myths perpetrated by neophytes and initiates alike!

Then, I will always offer you an alternative vision , a reading other than that of the doxa. . With advice, examples, references... Because we're also here to learn things, after all!

For this first episode, I'm going to challenge a widely held opinion, according to which folds in clothes are ugly.

The folds would look "sloppy", would be a sign of lower quality, incompatible with elegance, and not flattering for the wearer...

Well, I'd like to show you the opposite!

PS: I've been wanting to laugh a little more in my format for a long time. Sape m'en Cinq was more restrictive in its form, but there... We let ourselves go rather 😉

PPS: In this video, I'm wearing a Pike Brothers henley, a vintage bandana, Officine Générale pants, and Tricker's boots!

Nicolò Minchillo, in expert mode

My name is Nicolò. I am a Copywriter and have been at BonneGueule since 2015. I obviously write articles and create videos on our YouTube channel, such as "Sapristi" or "Sape m'en Cinq". All this with a certain love for debate, which I will never lose. Alongside that, I lend a hand to the product department so that we can develop inspired clothing in great materials.
