Paris | 2015
Like American hipsters, a certain strata of Paris' youth is pretentious, trendy and subsidized...but here the disciples are known as “BoBo”s. A contraction of “BOurgeois BOhemme”, the derisive title implies an affluent affectation of gritty artistic integrity rather than a genuine lifestyle. And they're everywhere.
Then again, if you’re going to pretend to be poor, disaffected and visionary, where better than Paris?
