Money yells while wealth whispers

Had a friend in HS who's parents were loaded. You wouldn't know that though. Dad drove an old beat up truck and mom drive an suv that didn't look "rich". Aside from the size of there house they had no visilual first glance tells of wealth. Until we graduated and I was hanging out with him and looked up his dad's outfit. And then realized his casual Saturday afternoon outfit costs more than my car.

My French teacher often told the story of her host family/bosses when she worked as an au pair ( I believe) in Paris. They drove a car that looked like it belonged in a scrap yard, and wore clothes that looked like she, a broke student working for them, could afford. And yet, they were extremely wealthy, owned a house in a nice part of Paris, etc. Most high end designer brands have two sorts of products. The products for people who are buying the brand and want to show that they can finally afford it, and the products that look like anyone could afford it but cost my entire monthly rent.

Decades ago. Even poor people had high quality fabrics. Clothes were made to last because people were too poor to continuously purchase new items. $300 for a T-shirt is ridiculous because all T-shirts should be good quality. Nowadays rich people are paying for quality whereas back then they paid for the name and design. The quality was a given across the board.

Everyone knows what they’re wearing is designer. Ermanno Scervino, Pucci, Missoni, Sandro, DVF, Birkin bags, diamond watches, etc everyone knows and there’s nothing quiet about it. Most don’t have logos unless they’re wearing t shirts or sweatshirts. But that’s it.

The biggest tell for *extremely* and I mean *extremely* rich people (not upper middle class or just regular wealthy) is their health and bodies. Not anything they wear or buy. It’s like the money seeps out of their pores. Their hair will be impossibly thick and shiny, eyes bright and rested, skin flawless, teeth perfect. And the way they carry themselves: like they don’t have a single care in the world, because they don’t. They’re not bogged down by stress or problems. You can feel the wealth radiating off of them. I’ve only seen it a handful of times in person but you can literally just tell. Health is a direct byproduct of your environment. The wealthiest people can afford the healthiest and most stress-free environments. They glow.

This is the one of the biggest generalizations I’ve ever read in the KZread comments section - and that’s saying something! Congratulations! My best friend growing up had a billionaire uncle. Yes, a _billionaire_ uncle. He would take us on trips for his nephew’s birthday, holidays, and sometimes just for fun. He was the most out of shape alcoholic I’ve ever met in my life. We are from Texas so he literally was just like a regular cowboy type. He was kind as could be, but to say he exuded wealth and it was reflected in his health/body is false, to say the least. My mother was also friends with a woman who was married to the CEO of a huge, well-known pharmaceutical company, so not a billionaire but a multi, multi, millionaire. She also drank a lot, but she was miserably depressed because her 1%er husband was a total loser. She only got happier once she divorced him. That doesn’t sound like a healthy, stress-free environment, does it? Also, the owner of my friend’s company is a billionaire. Again, a literal billionaire. I’ve been able to spend significant amounts of time with him and his family because he is quite generous and has many parties and retreats that my friend has brought me along to as a plus one. And this man also absolutely does _not_ exude health and happiness. One of his three children is an addict. He has a super stressful job running a super stressful company. His wife, on the other hand, was just like your generalization. She is in her 60s, like him, but she is beautiful and in great shape. She is kindness personified. And even though her billionaire husband had just met me, the first time I went to an event they hosted, he literally yelled and screamed at her in front of me and told her she was _not_ going to have drinks with us at the bar because _he_ wanted to go to bed and _she_ knew that. It was quite shocking. He literally couldn’t have cared less about my opinion about his behavior because I was a nobody, so why would he? So I’ve met _many_ people who are truly wealthy and they are often just as messed up as us non 1%ers. Even wealthy people who don’t have the stressors of running companies can also have tons of problems too, just like the child of my neighbor’s boss. Being wealthy isn’t like some super power that suddenly makes you immune to stress and makes you unable to make poor decisions. The ultra-wealthy people I’ve met are evidence of that.

Lol this isn’t anything new I’m not sure why this video even exists. Nouveau riche has been connected with ostentatious or flashy dress and lack of overall “class” since at least the 19th century in the US. It’s much to do with the downfall of traditional aristocracy (old rich) in favor of industrialists and entrepreneurs (new rich)

To be fair flaunting logos was never a thing for a certain group but it has always been a thing for the middle class and the lower upper class. For example musical artists who are the first generation to have money typically are much more flashy but if you look at the children of the artists or children of writers and directors of old Hollywood similar to Miss grenath paltrow they're much more silent and quiet about their luxury it also affords you extra privacy because you're not drawing in so much attention

I'd say the trend of unbrazen wealth started long ago, Succession just made more people aware of it.

"It kind of feels like an inside joke for rich people, should we laugh?" Damn, that shit's actually pretty deep

I just wear what I want and go for good quality clothes no matter the logo or lack of.

If you’re not the 1%, I don’t think it should matter how you dress. Wear whatever you want

Quiet luxury is not a new concept. It’s called being modest and having class.

When you dress like you are homeless yet is worth billions. That is a next level flex.

Dude this was always the way for the rich.

if you have to ask what the brand is, you can’t afford it

I’ve been buying luxury since this girl was in primary school, it changed for most of us long before Succession was even a thought. Rappers ruined things like Gucci, Louis Vuitton, and Burberry. Rappers popularized gaudy items with huge logos and the Chinese in-turn started to mass manufacture knockoffs, then the richest Chinese sent their kids to cities where there are top universities and major shopping hubs, they are the most materialistic and flashy people out there. The best “affordable” brand (still not that cheap) that mimics quiet luxury brands like Cuccinelli, Zegna, and others is SuitSupply, at least for men.

As someone who went to a 1% high school (on a scholarship), the wealthy just buy what they like/want (typically nice fabrics & comfortable regardless of whether its $10 or $1,000). My friend, an heir to a hotel ‘empire’ with a $10mil house (and multiple houses elsewhere) and 5 luxury cars would wear Target pajamas and thrift with me. They dgaf about your opinion. So if you want to seem wealthy thrift some high quality fabrics & stop caring lol.

Quiet luxury was always a thing.

“In ancient Rome, they wanted to make the slaves wear something so they could identify them, like a cloak." “Then they decided not to do it because they realised if all slaves dressed the same, they would see how many of them there were, and they’d rise up and kill the masters.”

So, rich people wear clothes, and poor people wear logos advertising corporations for rich people 😂

Inconspicuous has always been the way. It’s just people who want to look rich, but actually aren’t that dress with flashy logos.

what I learned is a lot of rich people (who are not public facing) actually don't care how they look because they don't need to prove anything to anyone and the clothes they wear is.. full of holes and actually not fancy at all as in, I look more rich than them by appearance of clothes

Ultimately, how the rich dress is a way to signal their Social Class. Displaying your logos and brands is what every other influencer does, so it's become normal for the everyday person, which is why the rich pivot to non-descript 'quiet luxury'. The minute we all start adopting the same aesthetic, the rich will pivot back to loud logos because the goal isn't to maintain a 'tasteful sense of luxury', it's to illustrate exclusivity.

This is sorta what Suits are. Before suits were a thing the wealthy flaunted their wealth on them but when Suits came into fashion it was a way to silently show their wealth with hidden details etc.

Best thing you can do to "look rich" or like "quiet luxury" is to get a taylor (Or take a sewing class) and get your clothes to actually fit.

When I see one wearing designer clothes I hear "I'ammm poor"

Truly rich people never had a time in the past where they wanted to flaunt logos of companies smaller than them. Only poor people ever want to associate with big logos to seem richer.

Ironically what the 1% probably says when they see the 99% problems such as worrying about bills, taxes, or housing issues is "should we laugh?".

Stealth wealth exists because major fashion brands only appear to poor urban people now as they have no other means of showing off their wealth.

This isn’t new, it’s always been the case. Very easy to identify the try hards by shitty garish LV etc

Crazy that this is now sadly a trend. Something that should’ve been years ago. Ages ago, if they notice they notice whatever. But you buy things for you not for others

I only know the men's side of fashion, but since men's fashion has always been more traditional, there has always been a "if you know, you know" to it. There's certain stitching in suits are usually for bespoke suits only... until more recently, cheaper suits have been adding that stitch in a couple obvious places, but not everywhere. Shoes, it's less obvious if it's a bespoke cordwainer built shoe and Allen Edmonds who make a high quality heritage leather dress shoe. Or less obvious to see the difference at a glance from Pacific Northwest Boots and Red Wings. (Neither are cheap as they are made in America) BUT, Italian heritage leather shoes and boots have always been made from their own traditions, and it's a "if you know, you know" kind of difference in their leather stitching and lasts. True Italian suits can be hard to tell, because Italians like their Spezatto style (suit separates, my favorite styling) that mixes suits, colors, textures and textiles.

Call me crazy but I think spending 300 bucks on a t-shirt is insane. Succession and these ways wealthy people have just convince me more of how unaware and disconnected this people are from reality, what most of us live every day 🤷‍♂️

>me who never really liked logos or brandings in my clothes, slowly losing the ability to buy the clothes I like because they are either vanishing or becoming really expensive LMAO

Not "in the past". It has always been this way

Idk, i think hbo just doesnt want to pay for branding. except for the watches

To be fair I've never watched that show but I can guarantee you that's the way it's always been... Rich people don't like to look like targets

So outside of the world of succession, the reason that labels and brands are not purchased, is, because usually if you go to Louis Vuitton, the thing covered in logos is the cheapest version of the thing, if you were to take a purse, for example, the patent leather LV purse is the cheapest of LV products, if you were to get the exact same purse in crocodile, or ostrich, it would have a single logo on the inside, none on the outside and cost 10 times if not 100 times morethe average person cannot afford that so they just buy stuff covered in logos and they have to buy big enough for everyone else to see it or else they feel like they spent their money on something useless. Hence the statement ludicrously capacious.

To be fair when you showed the Christian Dior purse, the cheapest Christian Dior purse in that size is the one with the giant logo on it if you were to buy the same size purse in pure leather, or in the vintage saddle leather, it will be 10 to 20 times the priceso instead of $1000 for a bag it’s 20 or $30,000 for a bag and that filters out the people who can and cannot afford it

Isn’t this what Preppies have been doing since, like, forever?

Idk the comments r funny. I know wealthy people and even dated some guy who owned an island and he was pretty regular. Didn’t tailor every garment, either. Just travelled a lot. There’s no 1 wealthy person.

The key is, know your measurements and get your clothes tailored. It doesn’t matter how much it costs if it’s ill fitted you’ll look cheap. If you want to spend on anything spend on shoes, accessories like jewelry, belts, handbags, etc., and please avoid chipped polish on nails and feet. Also no chapped lips and decent eye brows. You can learn to do this yourself but it’s important. It’s not about looking rich but just looking put together all around.

Clowns really thought they were wearing cheap clothes. Remember those old Instagram post of the 2 guys? Flashy or not YOU’RE STILL WEARING money

You're pretty.

Flaunting logos has never been a thing for people who were raised with money, unless it’s on a handbag in a classy way or a belt it has always been tacky or new rich

Wealthy people have always dressed in an understated manner. That don't wear Louis and stuff like that, they wear brands most people haven't heard of.

Big logos or logos in general were always for the poor people. I worked for a muti-millionaire and he looked like a well dressed business man, but wore a $20k Swiss Watch, a $10k Linen suit from Italy and carried a $1000 umbrella from the UK.

I don’t think that the show Succession is to thank for inconspicuous upper upper class fashion habits. This is something that even in my teens 15 years ago I was aware of, contrasting the ostentatious nouveau riche with the older wealthy class.

Inconspicuous luxury has always been a thing and the Uber wealthy have always used it look at the British royal family

I saw a comment a while on a video of one of the Arnault children(Bernard Arnault is the ceo of lvmh, richest person in the world sometimes) about how the son was wearing a normal sweater and that normal people who wear designer logo brands should learn from him. Googled it to find out that the shirt is around 4000 uk pounds.

Thing is: the pieces they wear might be unattainable, but the styling is. Sure, what you get with lesser money might not fit as well or be made out of worse material, but you get 80-90% there with 10-20% of the money.

Flaunting wealth has always been seen as uncouth. Noob behavior associated to new money or aspirational wealth in the eyes of old money.

It was always thus. New money buys flashy things. Old money buys quality. Also, rich people buy things. Wealthy people buy things that make them money.

Eat the rich

Exactly

And now I want to watch succession. But also “house of cards “did the same thing

Stealth wealth and loud wealth goes back and forth in fashion dictated by the wealthy.

New rich: Shows of their wealth Old school rich: Hides their wealth 😅

Old school rich lived in castles and several acres compounds while being driven around in rolls royces. Who are we kidding here thinking wealth hides their money? New rich just ups it more with super yachts, big private jets and multiple massive properties all over the world. No one is hiding anything except for tax purposes 😂

Also people with real money have not need to broadcast there wealth. It’s only young money or people that have ego issues that flash it.

Personally I don't like logos but buy what gives you joy. If that ugly Louis Vuitton pattern makes you happy buy that overpriced purse and wear it with joy.

She means to gaslight. She does not realize that she is telling the truth.

I always preferred nice fabrics and favourable cuts, rather than the flashy massive graphic tee. I was onto something 😂

It’s not because of Succession it’s been like this honey.

Real Gs move in silence like Lasagna - Lil Wayne

I can't get over the 300 dollar t shirt. I think it's nice to find middle ground with what you buy. It's like when you get a vegetarian meal that excludes the meat but it charges you the same price.

So when the poor finally realize they're being crushed to death and break out the torches and pitchforks, they have a way to look inconspicuous

there's a word for large luxury logos, "gouache"

Always been this way...

Difference between old and new money.

That's not new though I am surprised its making waves .Was always taught to keep your religion and wealth private

Im trying to look like a rich victorian though

Logo/brand on clothes is literary _you_ paying extra money for marketing _their_ company… it’s absolutely absurd imho.

Succession didn’t make wealthy people hide the logos on their clothes. They’ve never been about wearing logos. You can go back 30 years and all you’ll see is classic fits. Except for watches. Although most of them wear classic Rolex’s or Patek Philippe’s, there are some extremely garish watches out there that they love as a flaunts accent piece.
