According to my Danish 89 year old grandfather it's money, sex and politics. He's probably right, powerful people are mostly rich, involved in politics and often in sex scandals or sexbusiness. How did the rich get rich apart from being born rich?
They often started in banking business, sex business, industry, weapon industry of course because wars give profit
to a lot of already very rich people and fashion industries. Yes fashion is an industry employing millions of people.They unfairly enough don't become rich, although the Chanel jacket wouldn't be what it is without the " petite main" working very hard and delivering a marvellous piece
of art or without the artist creating minute after minute a fantastic leather Kelly
Hermès bag, sold afterwards for a thousands of euros. There is always a story behind the piece of clothes or the pair of shoes or the diamond ring you, hopefully, receive one day. Real, hard working people, with a very small salary make us happy when we pay a lot of money buying the products they made. Next time you buy a D&G bag, or a Yves Saint Laurent dress, spend a thought at the unknown worker behind the brand.Of course, Lagerfeld
and other Marc Jacobs' have the genius ideas but to realize those ideas they need other artists, unknown artists!
