Dior Denim Question

yes, they are 19s

I really don't understand this fascination & price assosiated with dior jeans??

I picked up a pair of skinny fit YMC plain black jeans yesterday, from the new season, £115. Wore them last night & they're great. I'm an exact 30.5 inch waist, so 32 inch skinnies fit just the way I like them! my cock needs to breath

but yea, all this £300 or whatever for jeans, christ, those days are long gone. especially for what is essentially a mass produced brand.

not very often.

ye great? what does that prove? i didn't dispute it? i said not very often? & well, i'm right, it's not often you find dior jeans at £125 & besides, they're probably the cheapest in their selection this season & still no doubt run as high as £250 £300 for some runs.

Christ you're sad. It's very simple economics; if people are willing to purchase at such a price, then the company will charge it.

Obviously there are factors in which the company can warrant themselves commanding such a price for the jeans. (Please don't make me write an essay or post up my thesis on luxury goods).

PS. Pretty much all jeans are mass produced these days. 45RPM being one exception, but guess what, they charge up to USD1000 a pair!

how on earth am I sad for examplifying my point that the majority of Dior jeans are not £125? please feel free to post your crap on Luxury goods? & you call me sad???.

I work directly with emerging designers who hand make their collections & still charge less than most luxury brands. So yea, throw you're bloody thesis at me. jesus.

I was saying I personally refuse to pay silly amounts of money on a product, that is effectively no better than another at half the price. Obviously people will pay over the odds or just for the concept, or philosohpy of the brand Dior for example. What I was suggesting, was an alternative.

Why that makes me sad? well, maybe you should right a thesis on the psychological behaviours or profiles of person(s), subsequently interacting with variables concerning consumer lifestyles/cultures.

My personal opinion on whether I wish to sell out, has fuck all to do with my current economic situation.

But thankyou for showing your great concern, much appreciated.

as they're effectively just as good quality as dior & i'm not having to take out a second mortgage to pay for them????

they also resemble the concept dior are trying to capture in a far more instrumental form. Plain deep black denim, with black stitching, the original rock n roll aesthetic.

personally I can justify paying £115 for what i've got, I couldn't justify paying £300 for a more glamorous (washes, dyes etc..) look with dior stitched inside.

Dior have taken on their interpretation (or one mans) of rock & roll and put their international, commercial spin on it with a nice phat price tag.

enjoy.

He's got a point. Also if the episcentre of this argument is about personal economical values and design taste that the argument is void. One cant be right or wrong in matters of opinion.
