Why Would You Buy Designer Stuff, Brand Name Or Fit? by Yvete(f): 1:31am On Jun 28, 2013
For instance, why spend $285 on a pair of Auth Gucci sunglasses when you can get nice sunglasses for $7.99?

1. Expensive label/ name /logo
2. Fit
3. Price tag - You think the more expensive, the better.
4. Quality
5. To impress others
6. You don't look at price tags or name-brands cheesy

Premium Designers - not High-street fashion like H&M, Forever 21, Next, etc grin

My priorities are excellent fit, good quality and durability. The name of the designer really doesn't mean much but the better quality items tend to be more expensive and are invariably, made by established or upcoming-going-places designers. So, in the end, you get to identify quality with certain designers and if you are like me, stick with what you know and have your select brands that you patronize.

I have clothes from 7 years ago because durability and ability to stay through trends are important. 90% of my purchases are made during sales so I make sure I hardly pay regular price. Works great - you get good discounts on high quality stuff

I always go for quality.
Though, a good product from a reputable designer may v a high price. What matters is that the product is worth it's prize.

[b]Why do I buy designer labels;

1. Perfection: These Labels put in more effort into everything. E.g.. China would give you a well made knock-off Designer sunglasses, but you havent known Quality shades until you wear a Polarized lens or a truly 100% UV protective lens. Move past lenses to finishing.. I have my tailors in Naija that make really killer outfits, but when you place a Vera Wang wedding gown next to a Chidinma Tailored gown, the Difference is OBVIOUS. When you wear a 100% authentic designer outfit, you feel a ceraatin level of confidence.

2. Quality: Try spraying a Tom Ford Perfume and one of these random perfumes you find on the streets.. Then you'll understand. Everything is taken into consideration. A Handbag made from Crocodile skin is truly made from croc skin and not synthetic material that would tear after a few weeks.

3. Class: It sets you apart from the rest. Thats why those who wear the fake suits would leave the fake designer tags on it just to make people recognize them. Well!! A Man who knows the quality of what he is wearing does not need to advertise it.. #Game recognize game.

4. Durability: Top of the line designer stuffs last longer as most times they are hand crafted and not factory sewn.

5. Mark of quality.. Thats why you know the name. grin







6. And most importantly, I can afford it.. SO why not! [/b]

For me it's quality;judging from the look of it, brand name, durability, fit, then the price tag.Usually,the items I judge as durable ends up being the most expensive but I have an eye for durable but cheap stuff too. I am an Ijebu girl so..... I v learnt when to shop, where to shop, and how to shop. Good bargains all the way wink

devour129: i hear you.if you have money like warren lol you are even stingy to yourself,doubt if you will be able to help others.

Tis not stinginess...tis called 'common sense'

Ok, why buy a car of N50million?? While I can buy a 3m car, feed a couple of folks, help OJB dem and make seun an offer he can't turn down?

If I shd buy a car of 50mil, den it must be able to generate electricity n go for a cruise on the atlantic

Btw, are you yoruba?

Designers r more often durable.. And cheap stuff dont feel as good. Again since they r expenaive they are less common.

Why is it that in designer restaurants the food is always smaller portioned that at non-designer restaurants?

You go to a non-designer restaurant, you get a big plate of rice and chicken, with salad, and bread rolls.

You go to a designer restaurant, you get two leafs, one spoon of rice in between, a pretty sliced tomato, and some "special" sauce.
