I remember once watching a TV show, were the host was basically verbally harassing Selena Gómez for wearing the same clothes more than once (in the span of two years mind you, and it wasn't even for an official event or anything like that). I repeat, she was criticized for wearing her own clothes more than once! This surely must affect them, and influence their decisions when clothes shopping. I agree that it is excessive, but we have to consider the whole picture to fix and tackle this issue: they get critized for wearing clothes/outfits more than once and criticized for owing too much clothes. Obviously, not everyone falls into this category, there are almost always exceptions to the rule, but it is something to consider. Perhaps one solution would be selling/giving away the clothes after?

There are hoarders who love to collect and recycle bottles and containers, from empty packages that once held makeup to food jars. These are definitely less harmful hoarders.

An amount of chairs that when you walk in their house you think, "wow I think I can see 20 different chairs in this open concept living space."

I've often wondered similar thoughts. Even years ago flipping through magazines seeing wealthy people with shoes and purses that cost more than I pay in rent. Maybe for people like Paris and the Kardashian/Jenners growing up without experiencing financial struggles they might not see things for being as ostentatious as they are. But for someone who was poor their whole life until suddenly they had money...like Jeffree or Shane...how can they justify the prices of Chanel lip gloss or designer shoes? Yes, I understand the want for these things. I thought I was over my label whoredom, but my reaction to a Victoria's Secret sale proved otherwise when I needed new undergarments. (Why pay $30 for a Wal-Mart bra when I can get one on sale at VS for the same price?) But I do not understand paying thousands or hundreds on one purse or one pair of shoes. I don't even feel comfortable spending $60 on a sweater when I can either hit up Value Village and get a few sweaters for $60 or wait until someone I know goes through their clothes. I don't see this mindset changing too much even if I came into mega millions. I'd still be stretching my budget, terrified of becoming broke again.

Cos they lose stuff in their home when they need that item, they end up immediately buy 2 or 3 more than what is necessary.

I grew up in a hoarded house and there is an important distinction between mega-rich collectors and people with hoarding disorder. HD is a mental illness and typically stems from multiple factors, such as childhood environments, poverty, neglect, and as you mentioned, unaddressed trauma. It's treated similarly to substance abuse, particularly because the hoarding behaviors are both coping mechanisms and are self-soothing behaviors- they accumulate without intention and to avoid confronting the painful emotions they're avoiding by accumulating stuff. With collectors and celebrity closets, their material accumulation is much more intentional and discerning than the vast majority of people with HD, who will hold onto anything from their parents' vintage purse to actual, literal trash. It's a compulsive behavior rather than a show of wealth - any child of a hoarder can talk about "doorbell dread"; many of us, and including the hoarding parent, were too embarrassed to let ANYONE see what kind of conditions we were living in.

However, diagnostic criteria of hoarding is the constant need to accumulate items and huge problems of throwing things in the trash.

Imaginge they wouldn't have all that money anymore, then maybe, this issue would become more of a burden. I wouldn't diagnose anyone from far away but i can see why this topic comes up in general.

[@thevintagekitty]

Having worked in wealth management for years, I can honestly say there is a big difference in spending habits of "old money" vs "new money" (or nouveau riche). Old money is used to wealth and are not impressed (as much) by expensive nice things. They don't ferociously shop. They are into custom made, quality made as opposed to quantity. Everything they own is tailored made for their lifestyle and serves purpose. They truly don't hoard. They also have lifestyles to which all those fancy dresses and suits will actually get used! We had a client who had 3 Patek Phillip watches: one for daily use, one for sport use and one for formal events. All custom made. He could afford 50 Rolex watches if he wanted, but quality not quantity. What we are seeing on You Tube is New Money. You wouldn't dare see someone of Old Money flaunting on You Tube. There is a reason even when you see these Christie's real estate videos that owner's privacy is #1. They also keep a low profile for safety.

I work in a consignment shop and there’s one lady who mails items in from another state and they’re always custom tailored pieces from a few high end labels that no one who shops with us recognizes.

Definite yes to one of your questions. I grew up poor-ish. Rich enough to have food and clothes and toys so not badly off, but poor enough that allowance didnt really exist. I rarely, if ever, bought anything for myself more exciting than candy. When I grew up and started working and quit having parents monitor my spending, I started trying to catch up on stuff I never got as a kid. We were always a "necessities only" family and I basically went "screw necessities; I like toys and jewelry and art and no one ELSE is getting me fun things." I am a collector. Not a hoarder because I can and do declutter, but there's enough of a FOMO aspect to my spending that I put myself in counseling to try to reshape my shopping into something that will actually make me happy instead of just causing guilt and stress. Can 100% believe that these celebs have the same problem. But with no reason to worry about food and shelter, their spending doesn't cause guilt or worry so they have no incentive to change their habits. And if they are given things of course they'll keep them because you can't feel guilty about presents. It's not your fault you got them, right?
