RRaW Week 8a 15/4 Exercise 1 Basquiat

I didn't like any of the clothes worn by the characters in the film nor did any of them stand out to me. I did notice, however, that the upper class people (the people in the gallery) were wearing 'fancy', tidy and neat clothes whereas the working class (the electrician) and the lower class (Jean Michel Basquiat) were wearing plain and untidy clothes.
The clothes in the film made it look like it was set in the 1990s. It was set in New York.
I did not see anything that connects fashion in NZ to the fashion/clothing style seen in the film - maybe the dirty, shabby clothes as I have seen homeless people in NZ wearing clothes like this.
We need to wear clothes so we are not exposed. Clothes also protect our skin from getting sunburnt to some extent.
