I work in men’s retail and got into a debate with my coworker about this. what started as a disagreement about the validity of styling rules of advice pretty soon devolved into beauty standards in general. Her take is that the beauty standards are completely arbitrary, it is just whatever society decides that looks good for whatever reason. My position is that what looks good is not completely arbitrary. There is an ideal of beauty that people are trying to pursue and the rules and patterns people have found provide the highest likelihood of getting close to that ideal. what do you guys think?
