I like the concept - most of these kinds of posts are done completely ad hoc and are distributed across all of the various men's fashion forums - but the URL made me think this was going to be a breakdown of famous outfits worn by characters in TV and movies (e.g. The Driver's outfit from Drive). Also, most of the outfits you picked are pretty stale. Go for one that are more exciting or with pieces that would be more difficult to figure out.

Thanks for the feedback. I definitely appreciate it. The reason for these outfits being more "normal" is because our goal is for most people to actually be able to wear these outfits. But we do plan on doing some crazy outfits in the future. Thanks again!

  I feel the same way. I think that "CelebrityOutfits" as a domain would suit the content of your site a bit better. Because when you say "FamousOutfits" It makes it sound like the outfit is famous not the person wearing it. "Oufits Of the Famous" would work too I suppose but it's not as catchy. "FamousX" will probably remind a lot of people of "Famous Footwear" which you may or may not want to be associated with. I was expecting memorable/recognizable outfits instead of "clothes that famous people wear". For example: Pinstripe Suit with hat = Mobster Red plaid shirt suspenders Jeans and boots = lumberjack Khaki shirt and shorts = Crocodile hunter studded leather jacket + jeans/camo fatigues = Punk rocker matching tracksuit shoes and hat = Slavic youth Good news is the domain is probably the easiest part to change!

    On the other hand, that's a whole lot of extrapolation from the domain that could be cleared up simply by visiting the website. There was a discussion here recently about not spending too much time thinking about your product's name. I don't think it's worth setting up a new domain.

      Thanks for chiming in. We think the name is simple and memorable. We were shocked the domain name was available.

    Thanks for the feedback. We choose this particular domain because of availability, but we are also currently building out another aspect of the site that will tie into the "famousoutfits" name better than "celebrity".

  A couple other naming ideas: Consider using Star or Celebrity instead and Duds or Getups. If I were doing this site I'd probably call it "Stylebiter" it's Catchy and could apply to more than just celebrities. Doh. it's taken: http://stylebiter.com/ http://stylebiter.com/

  I like the "normal", affordable look myself, so please don't deviate too far from that. You got a good thing going. And I love the site! Nice writing of product descriptions too. If you had an email newsletter I'd definitely subscribe.

    We do have an email newsletter. You can sign up on the footer :) Thanks! And we definitely want to keep doing what we are doing with the "affordable" looks.

  I own staroutfit.com and celebrityoutfit.com because I wanted to build something similar but never found the time to do so. If anyone is interested in these domains let me know. I think one could build something interesting and profitable.

I've created a site just like this as a side project. Especially relevant with Halloween right around the corner: http://carboncostume.com/ http://carboncostume.com/ And since you mentioned it, the Driver: http://carboncostume.com/driver/ http://carboncostume.com/driver/

Thanks for the comments and kind words. We will definitely be adding more "exciting" outfits in the coming days!
