how do i look aristocratic without going broke or looking forced? I've been binge watching succession.
Be white, don’t be balding, dress in Italian clothing. That’s it.
>>18485060 (OP)If you have to ask, you dont
>>18485060 (OP)>look aristocraticLooks are more of a reflection of how upper class people act, behave and speak because they've been raised in the environment and were dresscodes are still a thing. Just the same as how working class dress and behave.
>>18485060 (OP)Your pic related and Succession are examples of how not to dress if you want to look "aristocratic," which is barely even a thing anymore in Europe. Even our royals dress and speak like new money plebs. The old money boomers I know buy a lot of their clothes second-hand, no logos obviously, conservative style (slacks or dress pants, collared shirt, leather shoes WITH SOCKS). But
>>18485075 and
>>18485077 are right, no matter how hard you try you'll never look aristocratic, because you're not, and it shows in everything you say and do. Just embrace being middle class.
>>18485060 (OP)how do you look aristocratic without it looking forced while you are on one of your walmart trips? idk anon, I don't think it's possible. for it to not look forced you need to have aristocratic lifestyle and hangout with aristocrats.
I wouldn't mind the "old money" larp if people were more open about it being a fashion thing, but they always seem to think it's about some deeper truth about themselves and they're actually a temporarily embarrassed millionaire and class mobility is bad (except for them but that doesn't count because temporarily embarrassed millionaire). Like is it such a hard thing to just say "yeah I'm poor and I work a McJob but I really wish I was rich like those rich people on TV", do you really have to do this weird thing where you disparage your fellow poors and act like it's a meritocracy when it's clearly not?
>>18485060 (OP)When is this dumb meme going to finally die?
>>18485254I think its more because a lot of people are "new money" due to making a lot during the past few crypto market highs and we don't want to look like gaudy tards with logos and we weren't from wealthy families that taught us how to dress or act. What you say about posing is funny though and true. I know a couple that are broke musicians and they drive a leased Ferrari/buy the hottest italian brand clothes but you go back to where they live and they rent a shitty house in the ghetto that has rats in it lulz.
My rule is if you have to go into debt to buy it you are posing.
>>18485060 (OP)WHAT ABOUT THAT CAVEMAN MONEY. THATS OLD MONEY!
>>18485060 (OP)How is this hairstyle called? Any more pics?
Succession is about an American middle class upstart’s media business empire. It has fuck all to do with aristocracy.
Honestly, rich people dress like shit. Maybe precisely because it's not a meaningful class signifier anymore. Yeah, of course people who show up in media will put some effort in more often than not, but meet them any time they're not going to a photoshoot or party (and for those, they consult stylists) and they're probably slobbing it up. Collecting classic cars in old H&M sweatpants. Just don't act retarded (like imitating some TV larp shit) and you'll fit right in. They probably don't know anything about suit materials or the brand of your non-prescription glasses anyway.
>>18487998notice how /pol/'s guide to "dressing like a white man" is photoshoots, press events, and a couple of prom selfies taken by middle class people who drove to somewhere scenic to pose for social media
also anyone trying to autistically explain to the class how rich people dress obviously doesn't know a lot of rich people because there's lots of kinds of rich people, some of them are way into clothes, some of them are antifashion autists, the only thing you can generalize about the rich is that they have more money than you.
actually "old H&M sweatpants" seems pretty unlikely simply because H&M sweatpants fall apart after about 3 washes, but I get the general point, maybe more like lululemon since they've been around forever, and that's the kind of brand that has a store in every rich suburban shopping district, so someone who doesn't give a shit about clothes but happens to have money is more likely to randomly own a garment from there, whereas you have to drive all the way to the middle class mall to find an H&M and that requires you to care enough about clothes to significantly inconvenience yourself just to make a tortured point about how you totally don't care about clothes, thereby proving that you do, in fact, think a lot more about clothes than the average person
>>18488023Right, yeah. I don't doubt that there are fashionistas among them, especially since they'll be able to afford experimenting every season. But in general they seem less concerned about maintaining an image in private than the middle class. I used the H&M sweatpants as an example because that's what I've personally met a fair few rich people in when we're just chilling at their place (in Sweden), though I guess few of those were true old money.

Play golf
Everything will follow naturally
This old money style is such bullshit. Basically you dress like corpo drone #52893823, and unless you are in a yatch, playing polo or posing in front of your mansion, people will see you and just assume you are about to go to the office to circle back on kpis and align crosstranversal sinergy between deliverables.
>>18486940Reagan certainly was no aristocrat. Quite the opposite.
Also, dyed hair and too much shoulder padding.
>>18491235>circle back on kpis and align crosstranversal sinergy between deliverables.I do that in running shorts, flip flops, and hoodie. it gives me more gravitas than dressing up in legacy style officewear
