 There is no definitive marker of 'spacecore'. The style itself is rooted in choosing garments that fit a specific feeling, thus forcing the wearer to mine various designers for unifying threads and in doing so reject the vision offered to them as consumers. The unifying thread is retrofuturism, but could just as well be post apocalyptic cowboys as far as the ethos is concerned. What we are doing is using pre-existing products to make a non-existent statement. We are turning the product into the means of production. Like sampling records, but with moods and styles. Space/Lunarcore is about how you use what you have access to in order achieve a look. Color is far more important than in the drapey black stuff /fa/ usually goes for. You need to think critically, build a narrative around your clothing and color choices. Things become appropriate and inappropriate according to how they are framed within the fit. You need to use pieces as symbols and signifiers, telling a story with your outfit.

+Refers to the appropriation of symbols, objects, and aesthetics of associated with the looks of militants and terrorists, usually in the contest of pop culture. The term Radical chic comes from the 1970s essay "Radical Chic: The Party at Lenny's" by Tom Wolfe to describe Leonard Bernstein for hosting a fundraising party for the Black Panthers. He discribes the radical chic as the promotion of radical political caused by celebrities, socialites, and high scoiety. Defining their allegiance through what they wear, they are ideologically invested into the cause and often refrain from enganging or as dedicated as activists or revolutionaries. Terrorist chic which is more popular today is associated itself closer to the iconography of terrorists such as those in the Irish Republican Alliance.

 To better learn how to wear this style it's important to know its general history and where in my personal opinion, lost its charm. As of the early 19th century, role of the bohemian culture was connected to the young French working class women known as grisette. They worked with prostituition on the side of other jobs such as seamstresses and models. It was in the 20th century, where women in the west began moving outside of their traditions and became more independent, during this time they adopted wearing full skirts and bright colors, bobbed hair and androgynous traits. Seeing the growth of mass adoption of this style by many hippies and fememinists of the 1960s, the start of Boho-chic (Bohemian Homeless) comes onto stage taking the attention of the famous and "fashion-forward" which have followings of young women who are impatient and egar to find and wear whatever their idol is into made it a must have of fast fashion brands to put on their shelves. Ruining the authenticity of Bohemian's exotic and independent nature.
