ngl for a second I was was playing spot-the-difference bc the old header was still loaded on my end LOL, but the surpise of seeing the new header after hitting F5 was magical
There are pros and cons for either approach, and it depends entirely on the kind of experience you want to provide. Subnavigation allows people to more quickly get to something specific - not sure if that's your intent for the content you have on these pages. Your nav being vertical DOES allows for a lot of categories, so you have the opportunity to surface more if you want to.
So ultimately, do you want people to wander or to browse? (FWIW, I like what you have already, since the navigation is driven less by the buttons themselves and more by the narrative.)
both are good honestly! im also very indecisive so idk if i can be of much help-- that being said though, i think personally i prefer going down virtual rabbit holes (the way it is now) rather than having all the subpages be visible on the first page., (but there's virtues to including everything on the nav too.....) idrk! i just find it fun to click a lot of links !
If it was a drop down menu you could list the subpages but if it was in addition I think it could get a bit long and laborious to maintain if you have to manually update the navbar on every page each time you want to add something. I removed some subcategories myself because it was getting a bit long. But it's up to you in the end.
i had the same thought as you and ultimately have decided to keep mine as is and make browsing my site more about wandering...but i'm thinking of maybe putting a bunch of links on just my index so browsing is a little faster!
Are you looking for an era in particular ?
man I remember seeing a tailor specialising in historical men’s fashions a long time ago, I’ll let you know if I find it again! What kind of price class are you looking for? & would you be interested in sewing it yourself or only buying?
@datura I tend to like Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian ! Which is a long period of time overall hah
@blankmanger Ooo, thank you!! I don't have a lot of disposable income so I prefer things cheap, but if the garment is cool enough I may save up. And I can sew (though not well lol) I just don't often have the time for it :-(
Also cheap is kind of impossible in this situation. On the cheaper end, let's say
Soo I'm guessing you have already go around etsy for stores like that... For cheap inspired alternatives, you can always try looking for Ouji fashion, it's the masculine pendant of lolita fashion and it's heavily inspired by those periods so sometime there is surprisingly good finds from brands specialized in that.
I'm also going to ask a friend who wear historical menswear but he's more into earlier eras so I promise nothing ^^'
@datura Thank you very much, i'll look into ouji !! :-)
