A roundabout way of insulting a person with "first-world problems," by suggesting that they haven't experienced enough poverty to know what real problems are.

"Did you see Brent the other day? He's recently lost a lot of weight, and he was wearing his old clothes at the store. He was practically dressed in a tent!"
"My grandma was dressed in a tent at my brother's wedding. It's so sad that no one designs nice-looking clothes for the elderly."
