Aren't most of the people at burning man pretty fashionable/wealthy? Peasants compared to Bezos sure, but not the population at large.
More like the king among the minor nobility.
- ben_w 5y agoYes, but “pretty fashionable/wealthy” would also describe most users on this forum.
- wallacrw 5y agoWealthy? Sure. Fashionable? LOL.
- LAC-Tech 5y agoFashion here in a broadest sense - fashionable beliefs, hobbies, interests etc. I don't think it's fashionable to actually dress well anymore.
- xenocratus 5y agoWho decides what "dress well" actually means?
- LAC-Tech 5y agoMy finger may not be on the pulse here, but I think we all deep down believe that a classic suit and tie is still dressing well... even if we choose not do it.
- xenocratus 5y agoI despise suits in general, the pinnacle of boringness
- ben_w 5y agoSuccessful people, because other people imitate them.
- reducesuffering 5y agoOnly in the Bay Area.
- runeblaze 5y agoAt least in NYC it is still fashionable to dress well (as in curating one's own style or to the upper-end styling haute couture well). If in NYC it is still fashionable, I am pretty sure it is still fashionable in a lot of places :)
- asdff 5y agoIt's pricey but 8 days of burning man is cheaper than 8 concerts. Apparently they have low cost tickets too that are only like $200. I know some festivals like bonnaro let you volunteer for a free ticket.
