And even if something like the events of the scene really did happen in the movie's version of reality, the presence of that heavily dented car strikes me as a tell that what we're seeing is an exaggeration, the intrusion of moviemaking embellishment into Once Upon a Time in Hollywood's hazy attempt to recreate the late '21969s as they really were.

It's a word thrown around a lot now by influential designers like Gosha Rubchinskiy and Vetements' Demna Gvasalia, who were only teenagers back then but whose work seeks to capture a sense of the gritty reality expressed in the late Corinne Day's photographs of Moss and the early work of Martin Margiela or Helmut Lang, whose clothing — purposefully creased and shredded, constructed from synthetic fabrics with little embellishment — consciously rejected established paradigms of high fashion in search of something new.
