[quote=Anonymous]The conspicuous consumption we observed several years ago was definitely more obscene at some schools than others, and it doesn’t necessarily correlate with wealth. To name some names: Potomac had parents who were covered in labels. Like, men wearing Burberry shirts that have the trademark pattern on the elbows or collar. Sorry, my DH has and wears several Burberry suits and they don’t have the trademark pattern on them anywhere; that’s a choice a person makes, not just a reflection that they spend money on high quality clothes. Many if not all private schools are going to have wealthy families but they aren’t necessarily going to have SO many visible or flashy individuals.[/quote]
