The Prince of Bavaria complained about the effect 'cultural appropriation' has had on Oktoberfest, bemoaning the fact that the annual German festival is 'just about wearing a costume to get drunk in.'
While speaking to a local radio station, Luitpold Rupprecht Heinrich said that the focus on spectacle has caused Oktoberfest to lose its way.
"When I see Chinese-made folk costumes made of plastic, pseudo-costumes with tight dirndls, then the whole thing becomes a carnival," Heinrich said, per the Daily Mail. "We all talk about cultural appropriation today. Here it's happening to us Bavarians!"
The great-grandson of the last Bavarian king is not alone in his concerns about how Oktoberfest has changed. Many traditionalists feel what is supposed to be a celebration of Bavarian culture has now become an excuse to dress up and drink.
"If the whole thing is just about wearing a costume to get drunk in...you lose a lot of culture and tradition in the process," Heinrich said.
The first-ever Oktoberfest in 1810 was a celebration of the wedding between Prince Regent Ludwig of Bavaria, the later King Ludwig I, and Princess Therese of Saxony-Hildburghausen.

How can we be expected to form a cogent opinion on this vital topic unless photos are presented in the thread?

I speculate that Oktoberfest has been about style vs substance for a very long time. Good luck trying to jam the German Genie back into the beer bottle.
I don’t know what he expects when something becomes this popular and far reaching.

Plastic? Chinese-made costumes? I don't get it. What is the problem? Women? Beer?
What? This guy has a screw loose.

"...princeling Luitpold Rupprecht Heinrich strokes out. .." He still has one eye to see the girls in the Chinese-made plastic garb!

I’m pretty sure boobs are common in all cultures and fairly popular in at least 90% of them.
The other 10% are liars.
