Luxury Clothing Brands (Chanel, Versace, Louis Vuitton)

[Butters]

Is anybody here interested in luxury fashion at all? I would love to hear from someone who does. What do you appreciate about these brands? 

Do you believe that expensive brands create more durable products? 

I personally haven't been able to get into this yet but I do appreciate these things more now than when I was younger. There's something unsophisticated about buying cheap stuff.

High quality clothes are great and nice, but not those cliche luxury brands.

Buy less obvious brands, stuff without logos plastered all over them.

What if you get a stain on your luis vatton? I get a stain on my shirt within 20 minutes of wearing it.

No luxury brands dont create more durable products. The shelf life is the same. Nothing makes them special.

Not rich people brands per se. Just shop for quality. I don't shop by brands. No brand has even 10th of what you need.

You can find quality stuff for reasonable prices. Clothing can last a long time, especially stuff like jackets and such.

@Leo Gura What is unspiritual about logos plastered everywhere?

I get all my jeans and chinos (I don't wear shorts unless I'm at the gym, gross) from Old Navy.

Many people who wear brand name clothing are merely doing it for status & conformity. To appear wealthy, "important", & prestigious to the public eye.

In behavioral economics, it is called conspicuous consumption.

The highest quality and durable clothes i have came from remote mountainous villages and native weavers.

I have a poncho that is over 100 years old passed on by my great grandfather. Its made out of yak wool I believe. So warm and yet light, and even if you sit by the fire, it never picks up the smoke smell. Feels like a bear hug. All the branded stuff is often toxic by-product material and only costs $1 to make in india or china and sold for $100 at the store in US or AUS. 

Its all ego-play, basically becoming a living product, not a human. I was into that stuff as a teenager, boy I was a mess. 

Nothing luxury about it. The word luxury is highly twisted and misunderstood.

I have an old scarf an old lover gave to me that is the most luxurious feeling thing ever, and no one i have come across has been able to figure out what it is, its life the softest most natural feeling ever and interwoven with golden/amber roses and ripples. Its probably very old, been passed around from person to person for many many years, almost impossible to find such a fabric at any store in the modern world.

That too me is priceless, if someone offered me $10,000 i wouldn't sell it.
