Most Overpriced Designer?

[Squizree]

^ For that boring piece of crap? Silly.

 

[Melancholybaby]

^^I think the price refers to the necklace, not the gown.

 

[Chanelcouture09]

^Yes, it is the Necklace, Couture is always credited as 'Made To Order', but the necklace is Dior Joaillerie.

^ It is me or for the first time, I'm seeing 3 digit price for Balmain.

 

[Chanelcouture09]

Does someone have info on the quantity of jackets/skirts Balmain produces? Any estimations? I really would like to know how high the number of items is they produce.

I am pretty sure the YSL dress was around (£3200) $6000 (it was made out of a nylon mix). I remember seeing it at a YSL store. The black coat (with the same feathers) cost just over £4000.

On the other hand, this embroidered coat cost a whooping £31000 (about $50000)

yeah but in reference to the Balmain pieces, those were the same prices Decarnin was pushing and he isn't even on Rousteing's level. I've seen some of those pieces, quite stunning actually!!!

 

[reese06]

Aren't a lot of the Balmain pieces actually produced in France also?

 

[KemAlnagdy]

^^ 2 million euros ??

 

[Chanelcouture09]

Yes, Balmain is produced in France, production costs amount up to alot of its retail value.
