Weston is a kin, they claim, with a distinct segment for everybody, however the hierarchy of coolness—the approach within which classification, race, sexism, and attractiveness can ensure one’s place—is renowned. For Gaztambide-Fern?ndez, Weston is daunting but strikingly bucolic, inspiring yet frustratingly incurious, and sometimes—especially for younger women—a gilded cage for a gilded age. “Would you ship your daughter here?” one lady asks him, and seeing his hesitation asks, “Because you like her?”
