Is Fashion Relevant To The Working Class? Highly Doubtful

Never before have we more brands and models than today, and yet again, I see the huge discrepancy between the working class and elite rich who benefit from high fashion. 

With outfits costing hundreds to several thousand dollars - or more - the reach of fashion has become a running joke since the early 2000's.

The prices are outragous. The average price of a Louis Vuitton item ranges from $1960 USD to $7450 for a Cupacines Bag.

What most don't realize is some of these items can be made just as nicely but far cheaply in China - where - guess what - most of the sourced products come from anyway.

You will never convince me that you deserve to wear an outfit that costs over $12,000 - and that includes most over-priced wedding dresses. 

We live in a time where jobs are becoming a scarce item, more unemployment hits the world, and guess what - we are in a full tilt recession whether you like it or not.

And I'll tell you something, I buy my Calvin Klein and other shirts used for 20% on the dollar - and even then, the prices have gone up about 15%.

You can't make these items without a cost to society. And that cost is glaringly high. Never before have there been more millionaires or billionaires - the value of money seems to control society. And that is truly sad.

You will never convince me that elite "celebrities" or "business people" deserve that money. Clearly, this warped sense of entitlement has gone completely out the window. Never before has society become so unhinged and ramped towards materialism. I fear that the only eventful end game will be a collapse of society as we know it. And that will be when the working class won't take it anymore, and those clamoring for bread will be angry at those laughing and enjoying the richest food the planet can offer.

Time will tell if society will change, but I seriously doubt it. I will continue to report on fashion, but do know I am not enamored with money or fame. This site is mostly a joke and if you haven't figured out the true reason behind it, I guess you'll never know.

Hunter S. Thompson said this best back in the day, and it still applies to this day:

“In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity.”
