EXPOSING Luxury OUTLETS #luxury #fashion #outlet

Worked for a coach store and found out that you can know if it’s a real full price bag that happened to end up at the outlet by looking at the serial number. If it starts with F the item was made for the outlet. For my coach peeps

When I go to outlets, I ask the salesperson for the items from the actual store. And they’ll bring a few items, it’s usually 3 or 4 things.

The regular ones in the regular store are VERY CHEAP to produce as well! 😂

I used to dream one day to buy designer bag like Gucci or LV, lately I am disgusted by them and better will give my hard earned money to smaller not that famous designers or somebody who design and make their real leather bags and sell on Etsy, Instagram etc…

“…because they cannot lie to you.”🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

20 years ago, outlet stores were amazing. Real stock that just didn't sell out.

[HillbillyYEEHAA]

Good thing I only buy things that I actually like and not just labels .

[achromaphile]

Not you casually shading the simplicity of the Saint Laurent tote which is an official bag available in their boutiques (which is NOT a made-for-outlet item) 💀

This is why I stay away from outlets. If I’m going to purchase pricey items I don’t want to worry that they are sub par to grab what I’ve been led to believe is a deal. 🙅🏽‍♀️

This is where they make the most money- selling them for a cheaper price with cheaper materials ...hmmm... this just goes to show that their target audience for the actual stores are not enough and need to grade down as the wider audience are in the outlet stores

So.. I heard in Italy, there are certain regions where "made for outlet" is against the law and punishable by a fine because they want consumers to have the legitimate expectation of getting products from previous collections. More specifically "The Mall" in Tuscany 🤔

Bottom line, no handbag is worth 2 or 5 or 10 thousand dollars. As long as women are willing to pay it, it will continue to exist. If the women of the world banned Prada or Coach or Gucci for two weeks - didn't buy anything - they'd be forced to drastically reduce their prices or go out of business. Simple.

Because people buy luxury Brands to show off more so than they do for their quality. Go ahead and tell me that I'm wrong, and then think of all of the people who love to flash their Gucci everything or their Louis Vuitton bag. Yes, there are people who buy luxury brands for high quality handmade products, and there are those who say that that's why they buy them, and there are those who just outright buy them to show off. The truth is, you can find independent Crafts People who also Source high quality materials and make their bags or their clothes or whatever by hand, and they sell products that are going to last you a lifetime, same as any of the big name brands, but without the fancy name

People didn't kno this? You're doing a service pointing this stuff out. Always ask. Coach outlet bags are not bad though. Just be prepared when you go, so you know what you are looking at.

[Noritacox]

So basically you're paying for the name only not for the quality 😂

[ifeifesi]

I bought a bag from Coach in Bicester. I use that leather bag every day for 4 years and it looks the same as the day I bought it.

[hrbob]

I can listen to them the whole day. The accent just made my day.

[victoriaci]

Mango does the same :) You'd think it's not such an expensive brand but they do it as well.

[waytansea]

I love this format guys 🥰 it’s so interesting and well explained!

[NKelly-ycwt]

This is true for most outlets. Oftentimes the label tells it’s origin because the labels inside the garments will say the name of the store and then outlet. The quality’s always lesser. 😔
