BY ANY MEANS

Edgy for the Sake of It, Not Impressed

I stumbled upon BY ANY MEANS while browsing through some alternative fashion stores, and I have to say, their aesthetic is certainly... bold. With phrases like 'FUCK CANCER' and 'Back The **** UP!' plastered on their apparel, it's clear they're going for a provocative vibe. However, after delving deeper into their brand, I found that their edginess feels more like a facade than a genuine expression of their values or mission. The photography services section on their website, 'PhotographyCabral', seems like an afterthought, and I couldn't find any clear information on what drives their brand beyond just looking cool. As someone who appreciates fashion that makes a statement, I was disappointed to find that BY ANY MEANS' products, while visually striking, lacked the depth and authenticity I look for in a brand. Their commitment to self-expression and individuality is admirable, but it feels superficial when not backed by a clear mission or values. The prices are also all over the place, with some items feeling overpriced for the quality you're getting. Overall, BY ANY MEANS feels like a brand that's trying too hard to be edgy without putting in the effort to create meaningful, high-quality products that resonate with their target audience. For now, I'll be taking my fashion needs (and my photography services) elsewhere.
