But there’s something about the re-embrace of the Ugg bootie that feels particularly humbling, to me, as a marker of the subjectivity and impermanence of taste. Things that repulse us this week will charm us two years from now—and I meannot just as a culture in thrall to fluctuating trends and addicted to purchasing new things, but as a collection of specific people whose individual preferences will change, to varying degrees, with the times. We do not know now what we will want forever.
Are we being little obedient cogs in the machinery of consumerism when our negative opinions of Uggs dissipate in direct proportion to the number of Hadids we see wearing them? Yes. Are we, and thus human life as we know it, with fast fashion and these intense, short-lived trends that sustain the demand for it? Also yes.
