[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (3 children) The pricier the clothes, the more invisible the logos are. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] oxideseven@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago (2 children) Not necessarily true. Some of the most expensive brands are all about showing the brand off as a sign of wealth and exclusivity. See: LV, chanel, Gucci as obvious examples, Ferrari, Tag, Hermes, Dior, so on as less obvious but still very brand forward. Companies love using people as walking ads. You even pay them to do it instead of the other way around. It's genius but sad. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago (1 child) I think those are mid-rich brands. Meanwhile someone like Zuckerberg is wearing t-shirts of a brand of which no one here has heard. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] oxideseven@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 months ago Pretty sure those are just cucinelli. Not that expensive in the grand scheme of quality clothing. Ridiculous for the average person unless you care that much about having high quality clothes, but only about $300. Though there are better values for quality out there like maybe kiton or LP. None of these are the style to be like brand forward. More meant to be staple low mental effort stuff then statement pieces. permalink fedilink source parent
