(Ex)clusivity

‘Less Is More’ Is Mattering Most




Our societal romance is gone. Technology has replaced or ruined it, formality is a rarity, confrontation has been at an absence and all the other mysteries in life are melting like ice caps. Everything has shrunk and can fit into one's pocket. There needs to be a focus.  Americans hate being told no because it is offensive to their psyche. The word no sets boundaries, creates a culture, promotes a separation, emphasises class, luck, hard work and connections.  Nothing is exciting if everyone can have it or see it.

A recent spread by the New York Times focused on Mr. Tom Ford and his ideals of scaling back, simplicity, and exclusivity.
