    He makes a valid point! How one presents oneself speaks volumes about their self-esteem and plays a role in effective communication and understanding. I advocate for wearing what fits and suits you. Let's move away from the notion of "I can wear what I feel" without considering size, as exemplified by Lizzo. Promoting an unhealthy lifestyle and body image is not right, and despite knowing this, society has become overly politically correct. Criticizing this has become challenging, yet the reality is evident, especially in my gym where overweight individuals wear inappropriate attire, mistakenly thinking it looks good simply because it fits them (barely).

    Luxury brands feel this way, but don't talk about it
    If you don't believe it, then you don't understand business. Ask LVMH if they hold onto their unsold items, or would they rather incinerate them
    And yes, Lululemon is a luxury fitness brand
