At this point, I fully back this venture. Burberry needs to be gutted.

And there are a lot of synergies !

Yeah i support that too...I'm sure Remo understood the problem and he visualized Burberry seen by different designers like he does with Moncler....

a hopeful optimist in me is hoping this is for the best for Burberry to be honest.. this is probably the best thing that can happen to burberry in this scenario, right now.

Moncler...LOL one of the most scam brands out there
Ready to see Burberry getting higher prices and all production lines outsourced to Romania and China LOL

Yeah I get your point, that's why I think Prada is another huge scam brand with the plastic Saffiano bags and all the outlet outerwear made in Romania. Also Prada with the branding "PRADA MILANO DAL 1913" was smart enough to fool naive people about the idea of timeless italian style and craftmanship.
But at least Prada has the heritage and the brand influence: one thing is to buy a 30x production cost price Prada item to flex in front of people who do not know anything about fashion, one thing is to get a tacky check pattern windjacket / bowling bag...also even if Prada sells a lot of items appealing to hypebeasts (thinking of the bucket hats in Re-nylon) it never ends up looking tacky and ghetto boi like anything Gucci, Burberry or LV

agree but with some nuances :
- that prada had a moment they promoted made in India for embroidery and woven leather , japan for denim and other countries.
- also i would like to stress that made in italy is not always equal to quality there are things some specialist factories can do especially in tech wear that italy don't have the machines for as they did not invest in some fields of fabrication and know how.
- there are bad factories on both sides of the sea let's say.

it's a bit like the myth of typology of clients when mentioning luxury or high fashion buyers : that x country people like only x brand or style while there are lawyers of commonalities in regions and also distinctions that are more region or typology of people based.

it's not so black and white like Miuccia Prada said that if you travel the world most rich top clients have allot in common and want (pretty much) the same things.

i think it takes more time to educate people on what makes an item or garment well made but this is too boring and thus people rely on made in italy as a guarantee for well made.

how long did it take hermes to make clients understand that bags hand stitched with saddle stitching is a sign of quality 20 years at least i would say and still its not common point in luxury buying

most brands want to cash in now not wait 20 years to educate clients
