Why Rich People Dress Broke And Broke People Dress Rich

Fashion today is veering in one of two directions: On one end of the spectrum is hobocore – the uber wealthy are splashing out on outfits artfully distressed to look like they’re old and worn. On the other end is old money, as people take to Shein to buy items that look like ultra-fancy couture but in reality aren’t designed to be worn for more than one season, or in some cases more than once. The urge to use clothing to pretend you’re from a different socioeconomic background goes back centuries, and often the two trends do cross over. Yet today’s hobocore look is going to an extreme that’s a little shocking in in its insensitivity, and the old money look has its own set of issues worth exploring.
