There are many powerful – or formerly powerful – men who are so badly dressed that it feels intentional – and arrogant Scruffiness so extreme that it reads like a statement of superiority ✍️ Wendy Douglas
. All men; all once extremely powerful in their own way; all on the sliding scale of scruffiness.If we use clothing as a form of non-verbal communication to let the world know who we are, why would someone choose to look as far removed from capable as possible? What are they trying to say?
“And I wonder if they’re not trying to say anything because they don’t have to. I feel like these might be people who have such unwavering self-belief, they don’t have to prove themselves, or show their worth in the way many people have to before they’re given the benefit of the doubt. I think it’s a class thing. If you’re at the top of that pyramid you don’t have to work as hard to prove people wrong.
. They’re above the socially accepted conventions of dress and formality. They’re different from the rest of us. Their minds are on higher things. “There is an element in the tech world of subverting images,” says Terrelonge. “And I think that has come because these types of tech bosses are a relatively new thing. They’re able to shape what that looks like.”
