The world is bigger, but not that much. The speech and clothing differences between "Paris Ouest" and "Paris Est" are still recognizable. While differences are less stark, arrondissements still have distinct styles.
The 8th arrondissement at lunch time has a uniform, distinct from La Défense's. The 16th's rue de Passy and the 7th's rue Cler have clear differences in clothing and speech style on a Saturday morning. Le Marais and the 11th have different stereotypical accessories.
We'll see what'll be the public opinion about us in 108 years!
