Most Overpriced Designer? #1

[aybaybay]

i am kind of am in love with them but they cost sooo much

Well.. I think Louis Vuitton ready to wear isn't terribly overpriced. Chanel is insane, I mean, it's f**king READY TO WEAR, why should it cost thousands and thousands? I can't understand spending 700 on polyester beige pants, too, although I can't remember the designer.

I just feel really stupid spending that much on something that isn't worth it. It's not about affording it--it's about drawing the line and asking "am I really going to be this stupid with my money?"

What's with the Beastie Boys quote?

Dolce & Gabbana is an overpriced brand when it comes to some of their dresses.

vogue.co.uk

This dress costs $62,745. I would not pay that much money for something I would probably wear only for a Barbarella party (if there is such a thing).

 

[lolita_sweet_91]

$62,745?? OMG, that's beyond belief

 

[Omnis]

For that price there should a pocket with diamonds somewhere on that dress.

Run-DMC rated the Beasties as their favourite hip hop group, I guess they're 'white pretenders' too... Racists sure are slow.

you guys have to know the production cost in china for 1 t shirt is less then 1 us dollar(not bad quality at all) and even he produce it in france or italy, it must less then 5 us dollar

you're not giving nigo enough credit...bathing ape has gone downhill recently but ~2000 it was next level.

 

[attackmassive12]

yes but it's all about maketing, nothing to do with design, what can u get from 200 pounds normal hoody sweater, awful quality with super ugly print.

have you handled a bape garment? the quality is actually quite good...is it overpriced??? there are other people charging similar prices for their goods...so you tell me. i'm personally not a fan but there was a time when bape was refreshing, and there probably will be again.

 

[attackmassive12]

i've purchase few of bathing ape t shirt and sweater during 2000-2002 in Hk and Japan(which is the t shirt inside a can) but then i realize the quality is sucks and no design at all(Those watchv and sneakers just copy from the others). if u think bathing ape are producing good quality t shirt, please take a look kenzo minami t shirt, than u will know what is high quality staff.

 

[attackmassive12]

i am agree that he is a genius on marketing otherwise how can he do so many sales without any design,super awful print.I don't know in Euro or US but In HK and jap, 99% of their customers are teenage.

It's all about the Pretenders for me, and Chrissie Hynde... But whatever floats your boat, right?
