Oh my god this is the balanced, nuanced approach to Boston style I’ve been waiting for! Yes, there’s a college student uniform! And yes, the international students bring High Fashion! Yes, there’s a background in Puritanism that leads to minimalism and utilitarianism! Yes, the weather is limiting! Yes, there’s a thriving Queer community that leads the alt scene! Yes there are neighborhoods that have a strong immigrant and BIPOC population that bring their own distinctive style orbits! All these things can be true and for the love of god, it’s not NYC, nor should it be!
