Somebody in her replies says “I don’t have a $6000 suit, but you have several”…

to which I must point out:

1) Rent the Runway lets you wear the latest expensive designer gear for $160/month, and never repeat an outfit. It’s kind of like Netflix before streaming, when it used to be DVDs in the mail. You can have 4 at a time, send them back and get something else.

2) To actually buy a $6000 suit, if it’s last year’s and it’s a sample size and you got it from an outlet shop, costs about $500. Less at a consignment shop. If you’ve a few friends of approximately the same size, you each buy 1 or 2 things and you trade them back and forth.

3) How many of her friends or classmates (or the people who drink at her bar) work for fashion designers, or photographers, or magazines, or nightclubs, or stylists? Or they go to FIT and have class projects. There’s a lot of very expensive stuff being borrowed around town. It is NYC after all, where we’ve made a science of looking like you spend a whole lot more than you do.
