Of course the top .5% will flourish….for a while. Winter is coming for them too.

Oh please no, not maxi skirts again! I have an unreasonable dislike of that particular trend, along with low-waisted jeans which are also threatening to come back. Punk and subversive though, I can get behind that. Another trend I see with Gen Y in particular is thrifting w/self-modifications to thrifted finds.

Reading between the lines I fear this is yet another assault on personal privacy, along with CBDCs it appears we are barreling headlong to a dystopian future. Thanks for the heads up

As someone who has been oblivious to almost every fashion/art trend throughout my life, these types of signals are off my radar. Living in jeans and flannel shirts whenever possible is probably a signal of some sort that I am sending to the world, but I do not know what that signal is. Perhaps it is a simple one of "be comfortable whatever is happening." That's not a bad signal for these "interesting times" in which we live.
