[@DeputyBrattain]

This is my first time watching your video and I loved it. I don't purchase luxury bags and I probably never will, or if I do, it will be pre-loved. But I do buy *jklux* occasionally of the styles that I really like. I truly appreciate your comparisons here, which have helped me make a decision about a couple for which I was on the fence. I'll be pulling the trigger now. Thanks for this and your humor.

[@YourshawAuwaerter]

A lady I work for her house worth £3-4 million and guess what. Her dup luxury brands bags are bought from *jklux* worth £60 on the road. What l learned from her. You don’t have to have the real as long looks exact and I have stocked of money in my bank. I used to buy the real to a point realising I don’t need to waste money.

[@jaks_bag_attack]

Wow, the tension on the stitching, that should have never passed quality control, machine running too fast, that looks horrible, wow, they sold that

[@heartmumblr]

That's exactly the issue...tension. Quality control was asleep 😴 Thanks so much for watching❤️

[@sarahdavis560]

I don't know how they dare send that out for the money it costs. At this point, they just don't care about quality. I always knew my bag was grossly marked up and cost only a tiny fraction of the list price to make. That's part and parcel of designer. As you say, we are buying into the heritage of the brand. It's about pride of ownership. However, if the real deal is going to exploit and endanger workers in production like the counterfeiters do, and the goods are substandard in quality, at this point why bother with authentic? Pure greed. There is no "luxury" in what they are putting on the market anymore. I'm done with Dior.

[@heartmumblr]

I couldn't have said it better, Sarah. I completely agree. What is the difference at this point for real vs counterfeit? While it sounds like this practice is not all of Dior products, this is a big hit to their reputation/brand. They need to fix this. So grateful to hear your perspective, thank you for sharing them and watching! ✨❤️xo, Sharon

[@nmuzza315]

If people keep buying, Dior will keep on testing the lowest and cheapest quality that their customers will accept.

[@NedelmanMapp]

I have two pre-loved *jklux* that people left the stickers on, and when you remove them, the hardware looks different than the hardware right next to it that the sticker didn’t touch. It’s not because the other has scratches, the sticky stuff affected the finish.

[@nmuzza315]

Buying heritage is a big one. This in my opinion is an excuse one makes for the poor quality of a designer product. You are buying the product to use the product. You can’t use the heritage. The heritage isn’t tangible. I associate heritage with a non-compromising level of quality. What made then great in the first place. The type of quality that, sustained over a long period of time, was worthy of a heritage. With the quality being so low these days, are you still buying heritage when the product is mile away from where it was back in the day? Dior, and most designer brands for that matter, are mere shells of their great past. The companies nowadays are unrecognisable, greed-driven entities that need to be ignored.

[@MensenCrooked]

Such a great collection of vintage/pre owned bags! A vintage *jklux* is definitely also on my list

[@claudiasfinds]

If I hadn't previously heard the news about Dior, I would have thought the pouch was fake. They're treating both their workers and customers poorly.

[@heartmumblr]

You're not wrong...had I not known either, I would've argued it's counterfeit too. I hope they make this right! So grateful for you watching and sharing your thoughts! ✨❤️Have a lovely weekend!

[@amorgladiador8856]

To be frank, it looks akin to a pillowcase. The photos online are blatant lies no question. If it costs Dior 53 euros to produce a bag they sell for $2600, this pouch must've cost pennies to make. Thank you for making this video. I think many of us need this information to make informed financial decisions. A brand name today doesn't mean much. We need to go back to basics and look at natural materials, workmanship, and quality that is perceptible on its own with no sort of branding attached. This is why I have always bought artisan made during my travels. I do still buy luxury but I am super discerning and go for items that are practical and will be used regularly. (This entire comment is an opinion and allegedly).

[@heartmumblr]

Your entire opinion is completely legit and valid. I couldn't agree more. This literally cost them pennies to make. I try my best to be an informed consumer in general, but certainly I make mistakes. The freedom of choice and choose who we do business with is a wonderful thing, but so is transparency which very few brands share. Thank you for your thoughtful perspectives and sharing them here. ❤️

[@janetr5929]

I think you were very fair and non judgmental with your opinion on this topic. It’s definitely an important discussion. I think that as luxury consumers we have the idea that our items are put together by skilled artists/craftsmen. The price tags are hefty but if the time, skill and care are there it makes the high prices easier to swallow. We all are aware of the horrible working conditions in the sweatshops and it’s up to us as consumers to not support those working conditions. I admit to being surprised that Dior could be participating in this disgraceful practice . I think your new pouch could confirm that. I’ll be interested to see what happens with this and how Dior addresses it.

[@heartmumblr]

Thank you Janet. I always appreciate hearing your perspective and this really is a surprise coming from Dior! Their reputation has always been pretty clean as far as I'm aware so this is a good opportunity to get ahead of it and make things right asap. Let's hope they address this but I won't hold my breath (sigh)....we shall see I guess! xoxo ✨❤️

[@19andiaz]

Greed and power. That’s what this world revolves around. Not just luxury it’s in every company. There is no way billion dollar companies have done everything the correct ethical things to get where they are. I worked at a company that went under and us workers got a kick out the door whilst all the upper management got their paychecks for failing to run the company correctly. I gave up on all companies across the board. It’s just something that unfortunately we have to live with because it will never change.

[@heartmumblr]

It really is about money and greed, 100%. The article states that a particular bag costs Dior 53 euros to make and yet they can justify annual price increases to the credit of supposed superior quality and craftsmanship? I think not. So grateful to hear your perspectives and so appreciate you watching! xoxo, Sharon ✨❤️

@@heartmumblrcan’t justify it if it was all hanging on that bag and the craftsmanship. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That picture of the bag standing up in the model’s hand is very misleading. I could see why you’d think it would have structure to it. How else would it stand so perfectly upright? That stitching and quality is absolutely horrible. Thank you for sharing and saving us all money!

[@elinalall3475]

So disappointing with the Dior unboxing and it's not just you. The puckering from the stitching is a sign of poor or lack of attention to the stitching with one of the reasons being the tension was probably not set properly on the machine and/or the fabric was not being guided through the machine properly based on my experience with sewing but I'm no expert. Unfortunately in terms of structure I think that is how all their pouches are with the technical fabric based on past unboxings I've seen with this material. I'm in love with this print in the aquamarine too. Would you consider the Dioriviera 30 montaigne pouch in Aquamarine toile de jouy? It costs more but looks structured since its made with jacquard like the oblique print. I have the 30 montaigne oblique version, it is structured and love it but it is discouraging/disappointing/surprising (I have mixed feelings) to hear the news with Dior lately. You are right that we can't know what brands/companies are doing and all we can be is an informed consumer. I also believe in hearing both sides but it has left a sour feeling for me and to be honest I feel a bit reluctant using my Dior pieces for now. That said it was a subcontractor of Dior's that was running the shop from my understanding so not everything or maybe nothing may fall under Dior's control and each country/region may have their own rules regarding control/health and safety regulations but who knows. I agree with everything you said and I don't think you are being naive. I hope this causes Dior and other brands to fix their issues. Cassie Thorpe who did a video on the Dior news quoted a sentence from an article in her video and basically it was saying that the brand's most valuable asset, their name/reputation, is at risk if they don't do the right thing since it's the name that draws people to buy. Everything that encompasses these brands is tied to their name. Reputation, aesthetic, heritage, craftsmanship, etc... But what is interesting is how views can change from what I've seen. I believe a year or two ago wasn't a subcontractor of Chanel under investigation in France for labour/health and safety issues? then in combination with high prices, consistent poor quality goods, there were less Chanel unboxings and less to no line ups at Chanel boutiques in Toronto including launch days making it seem like people were buying less Chanel or taking a pause to hearing that the recent 24A launch day in Toronto was busy. Armani was also mentioned along with Dior but I hope the Italian police crack down on other shops for the same and other brands. I also hope that this is an eye opener for the brands to do the right/moral thing in their practices/hiring compliant subcontractors. Sadly, health and safety violations and worker violations are not only limited to fashion but other industries as well and they include large companies/corporations who should have known better but didn't do the right or the lawful thing in cases where charges were laid. That's my opinion. Thanks for sharing.

[@heartmumblr]

Everything you said here is spot on. And you're right, the tension on the machine and/or fabric was not guided through properly. This is exactly what happens to me when I use my sewing machine as a non-professional and I'm running the fabric through quickly without care. I did consider the jacquard pouch you're referring to but I didn't want to spend that much and now my appetite is a little sour so I definitely won't be revisiting that anytime soon. Reputation is everything and I hope this gets rectified on their side & that they inform their customers afterwards. I did not ever hear about the Chanel issue you mentioned, but lord that is infuriating...and with their egregious price increases??? How can they possibly justify? 🙈 So grateful to hear your perspective. Thank you so much for watching! Have a lovely weekend, xoxo Sharon ✨❤️

[@LauraRealLife]

Tension was definitely set wrong, and I strongly suspect they were using the wrong type of presser foot on the machine. More often than not, "technical fabric" is made of some type of polyester and/or polyaramid and/or nylon and often coated, resulting in a surface that's too smooth or slick for a standard presser foot. The sound of that pouch when she folded and rubbed it reminded me of Tyvek! Using a teflon foot or a walking foot would likely have a better stitching result.

I’m sorry for your experience. It’s not you-the puckering is terrible to see in a high dollar item. I’ve seen pouches under 100 that are stitched better than that, but it does look like a promotional item. Like beef and poultry in the US, there should be a third party certified label. IMO

[@heartmumblr]

[@AWWLF]

Great Video. As a consumer we should ask ourselves questions and wait for answers. I more and more go for Ateliers fashion luxury handbags, small businesses that take the time to achieve great items with a healthy and secure work environment. The word Ethical is not really used nor applied when it comes to those big companies. They bend ethical notions to accomodate their productions, business decisions and growth. This is unfortunately my conclusion after so many years of observation.

[@heartmumblr]

Thank you so much for your thoughtful perspective ❤️ I couldn't agree more.

Anyone who I willing to manipulates people for own benefit and sell crap for big sums to good hearted and suffering people can become a billionaire. Most people are too good hearted and innocent for big business. The owner of LV is no different from any other big business person. This is how big money is made. Please don’t bother about any Dior statements. They subcontract for a reason - to make the subcontractors criminally responsible. If they pay 50 for a bag they know it’s not made by Italian artisans and made of the finest Pima cotton or silk. It’s better you just accept reality as it is. You can buy Dior fabric (sold in finer fabric stores) and make your own pouch if you have a sewing machine.

[@heartmumblr]

You're not wrong here at all. I totally agree....and you're on to something. I think I will look for a similar toile de jouy print and sew my own. I do have a sewing machine!

[@annwashington471]

I have no idea why people are shocked, most of the factories in Italy are now owned by the chinese. I have years ago watched a video of rich chinese women she owned a factory and she admitted a lot of luxury cloting is made in her factory..The fact is things can be made in china then sent back to Italy where they may finish the product then they put the made in italy tag on. To me the biggest problem is the fact that people are willingly buying things they know arent' worth what they are paying , no bag is worth oever a thousand dollars unless fairys are making it other than that nope.The luxury brands don't care now that they know peoople will just pay and fuss but not stop buying the mess they sell. Sadly, people are making excuses for dior oh their a big conglomerate they can't know everything, that is bull they can if they cared they should be making surprise inspections in all their factories and making susre everything is working properly. They won't because that is money they would have to spend instead of pocketing it. They don't care about their customers and they certainly don't care about the workers.

[@heartmumblr]

I admit, I didn't know everything that you stated as I don't think thats necessarily common knowledge amongst everyone.

The problem is that trust in the brand Dior is broken. I cant in good faith belive anything Dior sell is not tainted with sweatshop, pain, suffering and struggle. I was interested in luxury due to beautiful design and I wanted to support more slow fashion. If i am to buy anything from Dior there would have to be more transparency and actual proof they give a shit about the workers.

[@heartmumblr]

100% 🙌 I have also been moving toward slow fashion in the last few years for the same reasons as you. But the lack of transparency is always going to be a concern with so many companies 😢 So grateful to hear your perspectives, thank you! ❤️

[@gunmetal2445]

I am not familiar with Dior but I used to buy luxury in the past (more then 10 years ago) and saw the writing on the wall with luxury turning into luxury in name only and perhaps design expertise (without the high quality). The quality has dropped so much that currently I don't think its any better then COS or equivalent. I think the root cause is the globalised luxury model. There's no way to sustain rent/ employee/ cost of operation globally without increasing profit substantially...and cutting cost drastically is one way to do it. I believe perfumes and sunglasses (which are cheap to make) were meant to sustain these operations initially (Since the 90s) but I guess the cost of operating became too much and they have to cut corners on other stuff.

[@heartmumblr]

Yep, I have to agree with you. Cutting corners is now standard business operation for most, unfortunately. So grateful to you for watching and hearing your perspectives. ❤️

[@Mmmkay9]

Great video!! Sorry about your pouch, it was terrible! I just wonder if Dior will be as canceled as Balenciaga was. This isn’t to compare the atrocities..they both are horrible and have clear ethical violations. Another thought, is it only time until more exposés happen with our beloved luxury brands? It’s a sad but necessary day for fashion.

[@heartmumblr]

I believe there are quite a few other investigations happening by the same Italian authorities, though we don't know which brands. Perhaps it is just a matter of time before others get exposed. And if they're not, I hope it sends a strong message to not cut corners or they risk their own reputations. One would hope, at least. So grateful to you for watching and sharing your perspectives. ❤️

There is a reason why Dior being so big as they are outsource and do not have their own workshop like Hermes. This protects them - oh we didn’t know how it’s done we just buy it from a third party 😂

[@heartmumblr]

You're probably right, which is so sad. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your thoughts!❤️

[@Bestlifemiddleage]

Omg, I can sew and this is so easy to sew! I cannot believe the stitching on it! It’s the worst job they could do! And the audacity to charge so much for that crap. I’m mad at Dior at the moment honestly. I will take a break from it. I wish they would at least address it, but of course they won’t and they will just hope we’ll forget.

[@heartmumblr]

Atrocious. I'm pretty sure I could've sewn it myself better....just give me a roll of their fabric, lol. And sadly, I don't think they will address it publicly...it will get swept under the rug and forgotten 😢 So grateful for you watching and sharing your thoughts, thank you! ✨❤️

Wrong tension setting when sewing.

Exactly.

Pennies, literally 🤡

Major yikes!!! Victoria Secret gives better free gifts….the fact you had to even pay for this! Sheesh! Really disappointing. Dior is one of my favorite houses but this is unacceptable.

[@heartmumblr]

Such a shame...they're one of my favourites too! I have a similar type of pouch from Le Sport Sac from an old diaper bag I had and that is way better quality! What is happening? 🙈Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! Have a lovely weekend! ✨❤️

Sorry but only fool people with money buy this "luxury" brands. There is no luxury materials or handcraft like decades ago. LVMH and Kering Duopoly ruined the luxury design fashion industry. Only customers have the power to destroy them.

Wow I hope what happened with Chanel ( LeeneR aka Uni-Leena) doesn’t happen to Dior! Idk if it’s my tv I’m watching you on? But also the pouch coloring looks much duller than the online version!? It doesn’t pop? But that could be my tv! But I see the quality issues for sure 😢 loved your video (new here)and so on point with the ethical issues from soo many of these so called luxury brands! I agree I thinks it’s worse then we know 😔

The colour of the pouch in real life is actually quite nice so I was happy with that...buy ONLY that. It's such a shame what's happening basically everywhere. So grateful to have you here and sharing your perspectives. I really appreciate it. Have a lovely weekend! ✨❤️

Your videos are really awesome and very good quality very nice I really enjoy watching your videos. But there is a little problem with your video, you should do SEO, if you do SEO, your video views and engagement will increase, likes, comments, and subscriptions will increase gradually. If you have less idea about this, you can tell me and I will help you.

[@madelainepetrin1430]

Dior is owned by a corporation that doesn't care about quality. Their goal is maximize profits. If the brand dies, they'll take over another one and trash it. Brand makers sell for a very high price and lose all control ovet production.

[@lauralangham9657]

That stitching is unforgivable for the price they are charging ! I wouldn't pay more than $20.00 for it. Trash.

[@trollonthebrain1455]

Return it immediately.. fake ones actually look better

[@WyeChengChong-ql7lr]

The puckering and the creases at the bottom of the pouch is a turn off. All the CEOs care about is cutting costs and lining their own pocket, they don't care about quality.

[@almondapple]

I think airline offers better pouches onboard for biz or first class passengers than this ridiculous overpriced cheapskate looking Dior

[@renem2962]

It's unbelivable!!! $800 for this sh*t! It's like something you could find from Temu.

[@clybee8328]

I am so sorry to see this, and I can totally understand how you feel. The pouch, although pretty, made me assume that anyone who can sew could just create the same pouch. Money paid unwarranted.

[@heartmumblr]

Some people who have commented have inspired me to sew my own pouch and find a similar print fabric. Lesson learned, I will quality control my own pouches, lol. So grateful to you for watching and sharing your thoughts!❤️

I wouldn’t even want it as a gift with purchase or if they gave it out for free. The stitching is absolutely horrendous.

[@francescathegreat1]

Makes one think why not buy fakes? They are both using questionable labor. Actually, of course I wouldn’t do that. Great video!

It does beg the question of what is actually the difference at that point, right? You're certainly right and it's a valid question. So grateful for you watching and sharing your thoughts! Have a lovely weekend!❤️

I received a Dior perfume set as a gift from someone and it came with the cutest little purse. The purse had structure and could be used as a bag. This pouch is horrible.

This can happen when you buy online…

1300 for a trashy t-shirt 😂 And 1500 for a normal shirt 😂

[@DenBank1]

How much is that 😮? Thanks for your review.

[@MariSews]

😮 that puckering happens when you sew too quickly and the fabric isn’t properly pinned so it goes askew. An elementary student can sew better than that. And it’s not even lined?!?! Insane

[@heartmumblr]

Insane indeed 🤯 I found a similar print in fabric that’s been in my Etsy cart for a while and toying with the idea of making my own instead! 🤓

[@maxinezanfardino7620]

Goodness. It appears that stitching was terrible bc the material was so flimsy. If they had thought it through and lined it with hefty waterproof material, it would have been a cute wet bathing suit pouch.

[@heartmumblr]

Right?! Talk about skimping! It wouldn't have cost much more to add a thick liner to keep its structure...So grateful to hear your thoughts. Thank you for watching!❤️

I bought the ysl rive droite tote canvas bag that was around AUD 100, alot of stitching was loose and broken. Thankfully it was not usd 800 like dior. But STILL, it is YSL, THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE MUCH BETTER THAN THAT

[@heartmumblr]

Loose stitching is the worst 😢Even though you didn't buy it for much, you're right, the brand should be able to make something that can be held together properly. I hope you can manage to re-stitch your bag. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your thoughts. ❤️

I knew they had made some items like this. Dior need to pull their socks up before it’s too late.

Refunded so fast! Thanks so much for watching! 🌟

[@michellegreen4526]

The pouch looks poorly made, and I also fault their Quality Assurance team for letting that item go to a store or distribution center. In many brands (not handbags since I am a newbie in this sector), including some luxury, I often seen, “Designed in _____” and “Made in ____.” It is usually made in a country where labor is less expensive. Sadly, all of this comes down to supply and demand in addition to corporations increasing their profit margin. Sharon, I agree this could be happening with other brands.

[@heartmumblr]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts Michelle! ❤️

[@JoleeSO]

I could make that

[@heartmumblr]

Right?! Just give us the fabric roll and we'll do it better ourselves at this point! DIY is more fun and ethical anyway! 😚

I am also a Dior customer. I also saw this toiletry bag or whatever it is supposed to be in the store. I also saw the tote bag that went with it and honestly I wouldn't buy that. I buy clothes there every now and then, you should take a close look at them, even if it's from Dior. You always have to know that you are paying for the exclusivity of the name.
