Sustain This!

Are luxury brands ripping us off?


Listen Later

In this chat, we dive into a recent scandal with Christian Dior and their production practices. We’re looking at the gap between the cost of making Dior handbags and their sky-high prices. We also touch on transparency issues in the luxury industry and whether high prices actually mean higher quality.

We share our thoughts on why we buy luxury items and the need to question their value and quality. We’re frustrated with brands that charge a lot but deliver little, especially when we expect top-notch quality and craftsmanship. Is it all about shareholder greed?
We discuss the importance of transparency and accountability in luxury brands, pointing out those that genuinely prioritize quality and ethics, versus those that let us down with subpar products.
