Dangerous? I wouldn't say it's dangerous. Fashion is like art or music. It's an expression of who you are. I would argue that vanity is such a large part of humanity that, to others, it IS who you are - or at least who you are perceived as.
If allowing fashion to be a reflection of yourself is dangerous then I would argue that the music you listen to while coding, the background on your desktop, and the decorations on your desk are also dangerous.
Of course, if you're Mr. Spock or Mark Zuckerberg, maybe these are all inefficiencies in your life and you've successfully minimal-ized your life into an exact replica of an IKEA catalog.
- forgottenpass 9y agoEveryone knows you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, now you're saying the cover of the book influences how the book feels about itself?
- shuntress 9y agoEven if you've 'minimal-ized' your life to that extent you have still made specific choices in your fashion/aesthetic that are reflective of yourself. The specific types of sweatshirts/T-shirts you haven't removed from your closet. The specific keyboard and how you position it on your otherwise bare desk. It may be minimal, but it's still just as much an expression of who the designer is regardless of their intentions.
