    Clothes have function over style. If you pick style over function, you’re in for a bad time.

    They still build buildings with a strong foundation regardless of how pretty it looks…function Over style still wins.

    Trees provide protection from sun. Function over style.

      It depends.

      Shop clothes/yellow jacket? All function (usually).
      Literally any clothes when it’s 30+ °C outside? Style/cultural norms.

      Most situations sit somewhere in the middle, but most people care at least a little bit about style. It’s not a fight, and I don’t understand why you frame it as such. It’s perfectly possible to wear functional clothes that also fit and with colors that don’t clash (actually most people who say they don’t like fashion have ill-fitting clothes, which is less functional).
