Everyone wants brand name accessories, mainly in the trendy high-end fashion circles. Many of us have been attracted to purchase one of those Louis Vuitton replicas, but we absolutely would not want to be seen carrying it around. I think you all know many stances on knock-offs and replicas. In my pretty globe, they are simply unacceptable. Fashion is my life, and the market in replicas undercuts the solidity of the industry I have grown to love.
For the price alert shoppers, there are other alternatives accessible. A number of the big department stores have begun to carry designer handbags and accessories, at greatly discounted prices. While there are some that trust that high fashion is the exclusive domain of the wealthy, it is my choice that fashion should unite and no divide. The love of style can and will continue to bring people of general interest together.
I recently went upstate for a weekend to visit some family and friends, and it was excited to discover a factory outlet for Coach. I picked up 3 remarkable luxury online handbags at extremely reasonable prices, and I intend to go back sometime soon. To be honest, I was amazed to view a firm like Coach with a discount outlet. I have spent many hours exploring their flagship store on Madison Avenue, and from I could tell the outlet store had almost the right same inventory. At discount prices, no less!
Upon returning house, I did some study on sales figures for Coach. In 2005, this particular outlet store earned over twenty million dollars, and they are projecting earning over twenty-five million for the present year! There are amazing figures, in my humble opinion. Why are not other designers the pursuing the discount market?
My feeling is that is has lot to perform with elitist attitudes that pervade the online luxury fashion industry. There is a powerful feeling, in fashion circles, that discount stores dilute the luxury online shopping image that lots of designs are trying to cultivate. While there may be some credence to this argument, I am of the opinion that style is for the people. I would love to view some firms taking the approach that Coach is taking. Purses for the people, I say!
