    It’s all depends on how you feel, if buying brands makes you feel good, but not have the illusion of being rich, I will continue to buy it, within me it doesn’t change my status either brand or unbranded products. If I like it in brand or unbranded I always buy

    I will pay for the quality of the material, not the name brand.

      That’s what I started to realize over time. I need quality and durability with my threads.

      The same thing for me saying about Balenciaga. Its not the Rolex logo i like but the watch I don’t like how they are made.
      I like the material,design,color,comfort and the idea-even if it’s Balenciaga. I wouldn’t buy if i like for example jeans if on it is a big Balenciaga logo,i dont buy logo but the opposite. Its something people understand and dont understand. I like Gucci logo but i dont like what they do to their cloth,giant logo all over,i am not a walking advertisement. The same with Louis Vuitton,some clothes are really good design but the comfort and logo is disappointing or disgusting. Yes,Lv uses the same
      T shirt material what other cheaper brands uses. Lets compare Diesel brand T Shirts-I know them for years and even after many washed cycles T Shirt are the same but ! I bought the cheapest T Shirts like 12€ for 2 T Shirtsthe size was the same as Diesel and after the first washing T shirt shrinked!!!! Not like the washing temperature was lower or higher than Diesel t shirt but the s material was bad even they both looked same material but there was the result. So,different brands make different something.

      And why would Mark Zuckerberg buy no Logo t shirt for 400$ ? If the same look can be bought for 10$ ? Why he still buys the most expensive if not to prove that he can spend? Answers???

    I buy what I like. If it's available at TJMaxx, I'll get it there. If it's available at Fendi, I'll get it there. However, I have no debt and would never purchase on credit.

    Why do people care what other's think? Who cares. Louis Vitton are mostly canvas and not leather, although some are. Rolex, good product, mass produced, no high level of finishing. Good resale value. You can't even get a new one, you have to go on a list.

    I only have a hand full of designer and I got them at a high end secondhand shop for a fraction of the price. A 1k gucci long sleeve for 300 . LV dress shoes once 1k for only 250 . Gucci all white sneakers once 1k for 700$ they all still look new came with box and the bag. I wear them only for special events. Geavency with box for 250 off white with box for like 240. That’s good enough no need for more I might one day get one pair of LV from the mall and that should satisfy my shoe collection. I can now mix and match various outfits now. I know when to stop 🛑

      Great point! Hermès does focus on timeless quality, which appeals to the rich who value craftsmanship. Do you think casual fashion is pushing luxury brands to adapt?

      @@AllureSecretary LVMH and Kerig are trying to sell mediocre products using expensive sales techniques. Casual clothes can be made extremely well and sell for high prices but Dior is making cheap products and attempting to sell them at very high prices. Hermes is going to be worth more than LVMH soon. I wonder how M. Arnault is going to respond to this.

      @@rlkinnard You make an excellent point about the shift in strategies between these companies. It's interesting how Hermès stays focused on exclusivity and quality, while some LVMH brands might be over-relying on their name. I’m also curious to see how Bernard Arnault addresses this.

      The secret to Hermes's success is exclusivity, if only you knew how much do you need to spend before you're "eligible" to purchase a birkin or kelly. It's the same strategy that Rolex is using.

      @@brianting1342 The decline in sales in the watch industry is starting to affect Rolex; that is not true of Hermes yet. In part that is because Rolex does not really offer superior quality while Hermes does. Not that the quality is worth the price; still it is something real.

    Who buy status? Luxury clothes created by designers and look interesting and trendy . Mass market clothes make young women look like grandmother.

    • @AllureSecretary
      @AllureSecretary  11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I see your point, but I believe many people do pay more for the brand than for actual quality. True luxury should be about craftsmanship and timeless style, not just trends. And as for classic styles, I’d argue they’re far from ‘grandmotherly’-they’re the foundation of elegance and sophistication.
