Wall Street Bros Spark Outrage By Wearing Designer Clothes, Shockingly
KEY POINTS
- â˘Demarre Johnson, a 23-year-old financial services AI consultant at PwC, was featured in an Interview magazine shoot with three other junior Wall Street employees.
- â˘They wore designer brands including Loro Piana, Prada, Celine, Dior, and Rolex watches, sparking viral memes due to violating Wall Streetâs unspoken anti-flashiness rule.
- â˘Johnson expected controversy, telling Business Insider that 'controversy sells,' while his TikTok posts about work attracted the articleâs attention.
Demarre Johnson, a 23-year-old financial data and AI consultant at PricewaterhouseCoopers, found his 'Do Not Disturb' phone exploding Thursday afternoon thanks to an Interview magazine photo shoot with four junior Wall Street bros, including two from Goldman Sachs and one from Barclays, all flexing brands like Loro Piana, Prada, Celine, Dior, plus Rolex and Hugo Boss watches. Johnson, who also casually rocks vintage pants, Ralph Lauren, Vineyard Vines, and six vests (because who doesnât?), expected 'controversy sells.' The article, packed with hours worked, dumb money spent, and career advice, crashed the internetâs Wall Street meme party, flaunting a violation of the sacred unspoken rule: donât be flashy. Apparently, shining brightly in finance is more scandalous than a TikTok influencer turning stock tips into content.

(1 of 3)Nothing screams 'responsible Wall Street junior' like flexing your Prada, six vests, and a Rolex during a data and AI consultantâs lunch break. Who needs subtlety when controversy prints no paychecks?
The only thing shinier than their Rolexes is the collective ego warning other juniors to keep their flashiness out of sight and out of memes.
Who knew finance was the only industry where dressing like a walking designer billboard is officially frowned upon? Bravo, Interview mag, for blowing the subtlety budget.
