Gen Z workers in China are picking 'gross outfits' over corporate glam because they don't get paid enough to look fly
I can see why the "not getting paid enough" part is dystopic, but I can't deny I love the idea of people dressing for comfort and/or functionality over "trendiness" and whatever the fuck "corporate glam" is.. I'd be happy to just let the fashion industry die..
Fashion is another way to get folks to confirm and consume. Having a mass exodus of that mentality upsets the expectation and thus, the idea of what is normal is being openly questioned.
The folks who rely on that cycle see any divergence as an attack on them which they equate to rebellious.
Or it's just inflammatory language to drum up some kind of sentiment. Who knows anymore.
Think about brand new “distressed” jeans. Wearing genuinely old shit that you didn’t pay for is a rebellion of a sort.
hear hear.
Tbh fast fashion and fashion are two different concepts. People dressing like potatoes and buying h&m crap is very common. E.g. isn't fast fashion a problem in the usa too?
