The SCAM Luxury Brands Don't Want You To Know

[@Giannas1096]

You know what makes you look rich? Owning lots of properties, not handbags.

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

I only buy the highest-quality items, in natural-fiber fabrics and materials like genuine leather, for my wardrobe. But, I rarely need to pay designer prices to get them. Quality does have a ceiling; a beautifully-made, fully-fashioned*, high-quality cashmere sweater, for example, can be obtained at many brands for less than $400. But, buying a brand like Loro Piano or Bruno Cucinelli at ten times that price just doesn’t give ten times the quality. The extra money is for the status, snob appeal, which doesn’t interest me. (*knitted together seams, not cut and sewn ones, a mark of high-quality). Designers are even using those dirt-cheap synthetic fabrics like polyester now, which I won’t even buy at H&M prices.

[@seabreeze4559]

inverted snobbery lol

[@anadietrich934]

👍

[@zylitoh2608]

Are you aware "genuine leather" does not mean it's good quality leather?

[@angelinasimon3513]

That polyester is everywhere now 😞

[@glee4694]

I saw a sale blouse online that was originally listed at $750.00, now $150. I bought it and had poorly sewn seams and cheep fabric. Had I seen it in the store, I would not have bought it at any price. Obviously, I will never again buy from this store.

[@tina8796]

You are only paying for a label. That's it.

[@malpalmer3269]

Correct

[@RIZFERD]

True. Even OUD they're claiming they have in their perfumes is fake. They cannot afford the real one. The real OUD is pure wild, very limited and very expensive as it's true rare. And it's on my channel.

[@fredflintstone2234]

Not necessarily. You can be paying for creativity, skill and luxury materials. I used to design a cheap ladies suit collection. I then went to a couture show in Paris. One of their jackets was more work than my entire collection.

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

Those designer outlet stores carry mostly (about 90%) made-for-the-outlet versions of their items in much lower quality. The remaining items are those regular items that are so ugly or weird that no one would buy them full-price, so they have to be deeply discounted. I’d be really careful shopping at those, most of their offerings are very cheaply made, “leather goods” might be plastic and “silk” items made in “silky” polyester. Of course, for those who just want a logo, they’re ok I suppose.

[@French-Kiss24]

It’s not designer,but Chico’s makes clothing for their outlet stores that are nearly the same quality as their regular stores. I worked in both. I actually prefer the outlet because it’s less “high fashion” and trendy and more for normal people.

[@lucialamprey2690]

Yes, this is so true. The same for online discount sites. You get a deep discount on brand names but the brand is selling their own cheaply made knockoffs.

[@maldiviansun8500]

It depends on the brands. Some produce made for outlet but others only send unsold stock.

[@RIZFERD]

[@French-Kiss24]

Handmade garments are for the extraordinarily wealthy. The rest is just Read-to-wear. Look for quality- do the plaids and stripes match at the seam? Is the fabric made of natural fibers? Manufacturers have these huge cutting machines. The higher quality brands only cut a few pieces at a time. Most cut 50 - 100. If the fabric is on the bottom, the cut won’t be “true.” You do pay for higher quality because it costs more to make a garment. If you want high quality leather, look for the marking that says “ genuine leather.” That doesn’t just mean that it’s real leather. It means that it is the top layer of the hide - the best quality. You are better off paying a dressmaker or tailor to custom make your clothes. Or learn to sew.

[@camuchanomellini903]

Learn to sew ...😂😂😂😂😂

[@Leukick]

Can't deny these brands do offer INCREDIBLE designs, as well as feelings, and sometimes exclusivity. Nothing wrong with buying into that if that's what you're interested in, and can afford. I personally prioritize high quality, and uniqueness whenever possible.

[@nelly8592]

Nothing new to me. I always was convinced that luxury brand items are a big scam.

[@daughterofsekhmet81]

I'm reminded of a video I saw last year where some fashion influencer bought a Chanel sequined denim jacket, only to find the sequins were just glitter paint. It cost thousands, and they couldn't even be bothered to sew on real sequins. lol

[@MargaretJones-g1p]

i love you so much! I recently just found your *amzclothes* and i’m in love!! Your videos are so fun and you energy is just MWAH! keep living your life

[@Geemeel1]

GREAT vid so needed for the lower middle class youth buying this rubish 💫

[@truegrit7697]

I am a highly skilled dress maker and a pattern maker. Almost everything I see is mediocre garbage. Fine sewing is an art and is not practiced by mass producers.

[@alicemaguire1]

You can add Brooks Brothers to the list of brands that are luxury in name only. The brand’s former owner, Claudio del Vecchio, brought the brand back to and surpassing any predecessor with superior fabrics and construction. The current owner has cheapened the product to the point where, aside from the store’s atmosphere and some styling, the clothes resemble Old Navy product. I could show you pictures that easily demonstrate the point. So sad.

[@hulyaungor1285]

The quality of the product at the outlet and flagship stores differs.

[@magnuskallas]

I'm not arguing with the statement in the video, but just want to mention I agree with your comment. I rarely go to outlets anymore for that reason, because I'm suspicions of the quality/purpose of mediocre branded products coming in larger bulks - it doesn't look like regular unsold stock. Whether it is sneakers, shoes, trousers, suits... I can't confirm it, but I think it is either A: Left overs of cheaper bulk orders for certain industry sectors (hospitality, travel, office, merch shops, maybe even schools and military) or B: They are produced for local lover income markets with product designs often not present in the catalogues and online shops.

[@selyemperzsa1]

Luxury brands used to be for rich people not middle class of high quality products....they figured out how to make more money by lowering quality,making it more or less accessible to all, but still making people go crazy for them....

[@user-mv2tg8hc8c]

Even if products were exclusive and hand crafted why would they be worth thousands and thousands. Still doesn’t make sense to me.

[@Lexomm1]

The two most useless industries, advertising, and fashion.

[@lizcedillo4602]

I don't care to buy the brands. You can save so much money instead. 💁‍♀️😃

[@hidupz-e5x]

OMG! You need to absolutely keep it! Whether it's true or not, this is special to you. People create packages, packages do not create people. Rock it girl, salute LYXBAGS !

[@11REIGN11]

Real luxury brands don't do sales or outlets. 😮

[@je8z6x]

The rich buy stuff that lasts so more Value even if it's pricey. Imagine buying a $2 slipper vs $10 dollar. But the $10 last for more than 5 yes but u bought $2 five times in less than 2 years

[@stormzybanksy]

very interesting points you're making, and i don't doubt that many of them are true. however, do you have data and sources to back up some of your claims? ie. luxury goods being made in the same factories as fast fashion brands. where has that been reported? otherwise this is all just speculation and not fact.

[@katereznikov8792]

But in reality, you paid for these pieces and what? Where you're going in them? Even in Europe people dress down now. In US? Please, don't kid yourself

[@HeatherEdwards-i8e]

I have two pre-loved *gtdupe* 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.

[@FullFledged2010]

Never understood why people even care about a bag.. Especially when the bag costs more than the stuff you carrying in it 🤦‍♂ I mean a nice car I can understand because you can feel the difference when driving. Or a big tv with nice colors you can see the difference but a bag? What's the difference between a decent 100 dollar bag (which is already way too expensive for what is but for the sake of argument) or a 10000 dollar bag? Does the 10k bag feel better when you're holding it? does it last longer? I highly doubt it🤷‍♂

[@isaiahwade3041]

I couldn’t care less about the backstory. Most be old world war backstory struggle. I don’t care the name , it’s about the quality and trying to have the best life has to offer on your body. But if I like it I don’t care about the price. New unheard of designers ( like many Italian or Asian designers ) trying to break in often does their best work because they have a brand to build and something to prove

[@mikewinston8709]

A better way to look at it perhaps……🇬🇧 King Charles as an example of wealth. Look at his clothes, the ‘brands’ he has always worn….his tailors…..shoe makers…shirt makers, umbrella makers…et cetera. They all do bespoke and ready to wear, open for you all. The prices are roughly the same, sometimes cheaper than so called designer brands. That’s real old money wealth….. Think about it.

Chanel handbags have radically declined in quality even though their price has skyrocketed. The podcaster Tanner Leatherstein here on KZbin has all the information about which luxury brands still uphold standards of excellence.

[@elizabethadjei2568]

Look at how you deceptively used a celebrity to promote your KZbin; And you’re talking about fake advertising?. This is no secret. Luxury is made for those who can afford. There’s a certain satisfaction and status symbol they get from it. They know what they want and do not rely on marketing. Social media has distorted this and I’m surprised you did mention the role of social media and influencers. Many ordinary families work for these brands and earn their living, these kinds of commentary will ruin their livelihood. The people who buy will not get swayed by you.
