    So....if dior is buying the bags from the subcontractor, does that mean they really aren't dior bags until dior buys them? Does that mean they are super fakes until dior buys them? Does dior buy all of them? Is this how super fakes come about, because they are manufactured by these subcontractors? I've often wondered if these super fakes are made in the same place as the "real" bags. It's just another income they get from people who can't afford the "real" one.

    My fiancé got me a Dior necklace in Las Vegas boutique. I knew they are no precious metal and just plain metal, however, he thought it was made of gold because, according to him, he asked an employee before purchase if it’s real gold, and they said it is… employees preying on clueles men who shop for gifts… lying and false advertisement to secure purchase… shameful

      I think they can get away with that because it is gold layered...its sneaky as shit. Like a 'made in Italy' tag doesn't mean the bag was actually made in Italy...it was designed and maybe put back together in Italy-maybe...but...the label was made in Italy. They found loopholes to screw people. I one time thought Chanel jewelry was real because who the fuck would spend that much on costume jewelry...but no... its fake.

      Some pieces are 18k gold plated, some are brushed with gold, some are colored in gold color. I'm not saying your husband asked the wrong question but sometimes reinforcing the question in such a way won't allow them to misinform you. Now that being said, is this right/ethical? Absolutely not! they should explain exactly what you are buying, and I don't know what their excuse is to be like this other than financial gains/meet quotas and targets. I've caught Hermes employees trying to sell me that "gold-plated" is the same as full gold.... no, it's not! When they know who they're f--king with, they won't play with you. I hope you're enjoying the necklace though :)

    Bernard really ruined Dior. He acquired the brand for so cheap which is probably why he doesn’t really care what happens to it. I know the sheeple don’t care but if any of them have any morals then they should care. As Dacob has said, the justice system is not always moral and what Dior is doing is very immoral even though they won’t face any legal consequences. Personally, Dior has dropped from my radar. As a moral person I cannot associate myself which such brands unless if the owner changes.

    The 'Made in Italy' rule...the label that is sewn in the bag doesn't actually mean the entire bag was made in Italy. As far as I understand, it has to be designed in Italy...made in China...assembled in Italy and the label itself is legit made in Italy. So basically, they are not lying when the label says 'made in Italy' because essentially the label is made in Italy. Pretty sneaky. I personally think the same factories the make the real, also make the fake. That could explain why they are made so well. Plus, someone already commented that buying a real and buying fake is the same when you realize the treatment of the workers is grossly equal.

    My mom is a seamstress. She would always tell me that the cost to make clothing products is higher than what the company sells it for. Even with jewelry. Jewelry is one of her favorite fashion items. So she always knew what to look for in terms of quality and what is a good price.

      @SuperDacob  8 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      Hahaha possibly buuuut 57 is what the manufacturer allegedly charged LVMH for it. They of course also need to make a profit when charging 57… so the production and labor and materials of course needed to cost less in order for the manufacturer to still be able to make a profit after selling it to LVMH for 57. Allegedly

    This really erodes Dior brand. I went to the Met to look at the Sleeping Beauties exhibition, and Dior dresses on display were executed with such high level of artistry and precision, they easily stood out among other designer creations.
    I also went to the boutique a week ago to look at the new collection. There was a gorgeous hand embroidered knit on display for $4,000. I admired it from afar, but I wondered what drove that price. Probably the embroidered butterflies. Well, if Dior pays the craftspeople who made the knit cents on the dollar I’ll go somewhere else. There are multiple designers on the market that make gorgeous knits for a fraction of the price.

    Germany introduced the act on Corporation due diligence responsibilities for the prevention of human rights violations in supply chains. Companies are held reliable for human rights violations concerning direct suppliers (and indirect suppliers if the companies have knowledge of a violation).
    Europe is preparing the European version of the law which will be even stricter. Companies will be held responsible for their whole supply chain.
    So when luxury brands move their facilities out of Europe to Great Britain ...Well...how convenient.
    Love your channel. Your focus on the human rights aspects is so much needed these days. Making people aware of what is going is what forces companies to change, because they are afraid of their reputation. And they should be.

      To be fair it has to be mentionend that in 2015 the UK Government introduced the MSA (Modern Slavery Act) while other EU members still debated about possible legislations.
      So it's not as if the UK is a legal vacuum and has advantages over the EU in this respect. In my view, tax advantages are more obvious:
      Anyone who sells a company that they run as a self-employed person (or as a partner in a partnership), or has at least a 5% stake in a corporation (in which they are an employee or managing director), only pays 10% capital gains tax on the proceeds of the sale.
      To do so, he must have held a stake in the company for at least 1 year.
      There are a number of interesting tax advantages and tax breaks in the UK that can be exploited in a targeted manner if they are cleverly structured. In individual cases, the UK can be extremely interesting - especially for foreigners with high incomes and assets.

    I saw Sophie shohet post about this as well and I have to say, I’m surprised this is news to anyone. I thought it was common knowledge. I’ve know about this for almost 20 years. Perhaps it’s a general lack of understanding of what’s happened to the economies of Europe overall that misleads people into thinking someone is genuinely getting a fair pay and hand making these items and the corporation is simultaneously getting fatter and richer. Perhaps it’s wilful ignorance in an age of social media where many people care too much about what other people think of them. Hermes isn’t made in France either. It’s lunacy.

      She posted something about it a few days ago. Also, maybe sometime last year she began talking about what is made in China with a made in Italy label. These fraud companies, that is what they are to me. They found a legal loophole to get away with shit at the expense of the poor. I remember trying to resell a very old Gucci bag through the Real Real..mint condition but they said it was too old...wonder how they feel about those too old vintage bags now. That is what the buyer wants and trusts.

      Yes, there was a huge scandal due to the misuse of the "Made in USA" labels when it was discovered that major companies like Nike, Ralph Lauren and a number of others were actually having their products made in Saipan/Mariana Islands by indentured Chinese immigrants back in the 1990s/early 2000s. Obviously no one gave a rats a$$ because these companies still do well. We've gotten very good at ignoring the signs or is it willful ignorance? And yet people scream about buying fake bags from China--what's the difference?!

    This is not new. There is a reason why Primark etc walk away unscathed when news comes out about factories where workers are chained to machines or doors locked. Using a third party absolves all responsibility of conditions and drives prices downwards. The annual invoice of 752k means that this factory produced almost 15 k bags produced by 32 people. That's 500 per year almost. Add to this all the other brands they work for and it makes the apple iPhone factory look like UNICEF! Look further at the third party hardware suppliers and you will see horrendous treatment of Senegalese workers.
