Fashion is an art form. Sometimes it’s iconic and timeless, other times it’s extravagant, bold, and borderline crazy. It’s a reflection of the times that mirrors the current culture, the mood of society, and the values of the present. Clothing collections can have thought-provoking messages as well as highlight the beauty of craftsmanship.
Fashion is also a business. A good testament to that is that the two families that own the majority of luxury fashion brands, the Arnaults (Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Dior) and the Pinaults (Gucci, Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen), are billionaires. The head of the former, Bernard Arnault, is, in fact, the second richest person on earth.
So, from all that, it is easy to deduce that at least some of those kooky garments have kooky prices. And maybe they would all go unnoticed if not for a TikToker that goes by refashionedhippie, who has made it her mission to expose all the ridiculously overpriced things offered by luxury brands.
The TikToker started a series called “Stupid rich people fashion” where she pokes fun at various items with absurd price tags. Scroll down to see the best of what she’s found online.

This Is An Actual Product. It Is A Chewing Gum Holder
It holds five pieces of gum. Let's look at the price. $1025. And honestly, I'm not even mad. If you can convince somebody to pay a thousand dollars for a chewing gum holder, okay, that's on them at this point.
Chelsea McKee 2 years ago
Honestly what problem is this solving? Are the packs of gum which come in 5 truly not good enough?
ILoveMySon 2 years ago
Does anyone remember "gum savers" in the 70s? The small ramekin type of dish...for used gum?😬 My friend had one and it freaked me out. Perhaps one could slap a designer label on them and make a fortune.🤣
But why are all these designer items so expensive? The simplest answer here is that we want them to be like that. Luxury is something not everybody can afford. It is something you want to indulge in, something that is frivolous and pleasant in its frivolity. It’s not a necessity, not a must-have. It can be pointless, impractical, and weird but, above it all, it is always joyful.
That is why designer bags or shoes are considered to be status symbols. They are there for people to buy so they can show everybody that they can afford these frivolous things. That in itself makes people feel good.

Andy Warhol's fascination with Campbell's has an awesome backstory. To put it too simply: He was a Eastern-rite Christian, fascinated with iconography, the use of memes to tell stories of miracles in ways that could be remembered easily, including by illiterates in an age without printing presses. He grew up sickly, and therefore ate mostly soup. He was very grateful for the huge variety of soup available from Campbell's and considered it a marvel of the benefits of free markets and industrialism. To express how miraculous he considered freedom, and such benefits which come from it, he made icons out of what people might otherwise take as mundane, proclaiming their miraculous nature using iconographic techniques.

Peak capitalism. People starve and struggle while other pay $500 for a plastic clip.
The fashion houses, of course, profit from that kind of attitude. They are happy that instead of charging what is fair compared to their costs, they can charge whatever the customer is willing to pay. Which means they can often go over the standard mark up and can triple or even quadruple the price if they want.
However, one should not underestimate the price of creating a fashion piece. After all, it is art and it requires quite a lot of effort.

We're Going To Look At A Very Special Coat From Rick Owens
Let me tell you up front, I always have something against white winter coats anyway, because I feel like they're absolutely going to get dirty no matter what you do, even if you're just walking down a street with salt on it. But these ridiculous arm things guarantee that it will get filthy. Part of what I find so funny here is that it's got these ludicrously long arms, but the actual arms are very short. This is not part of the jacket. So it has these ludicrously long sleeves, but not a sleeve where your arm needs to be. And why, why would you tuck it up? It's on sale now for nearly 2,000, marked down from 4,600. It is possible to wear the super long sleeve if you, like, yank it up your arm. I know they're trying to have a fashion moment. This is all I see. Anyone who's watched Studio Ghibli, all I see.

These sleeves would get stepped on, caught in doors - including car doors and elevator doors, snag on things, and otherwise be hazardous. If you try to wear them as sleeves, the fabric will be so bunched up you probrably won't be able to use your arms. You could pick them up and wrap them around yourself like a scarf, but they'd probrably slide down and trip you up. The only place this jacket works, is on the catwalk.
Albert Elbaz, a brilliant designer who has worked for Lanvin, Yves Saint Laurent, and many more fashion houses, once described how elaborate his process of creating a garment is. “I took all the bones out, and I stitch, and to get there, you know, it took me forever. It took me six or seven dresses to make one. And it's time and it's money and we are not doing it in offshore countries - we pay 65% taxes in France! It is so much work.”

It's A Clear, Gas Can Shaped Purse For $10,000 From Chanel
Sand Ers 2 years ago
Coco Chanel was an actual, no ambiguity, virulently anti-semitic Nazi collaborator. The only reason she wasn't executed after the war was because her name was too valuable. Instead it was swept under the rug so the company could survive. The irony is that the company (which she tried to steal back claiming it was "abandoned" during the war) was almost entirely owned by a Jewish family who has "sold" it to a Christian businessman to protect it. He "sold" it back to them once it was safe to do so. She lived the rest of her life as a powerless figurehead designer, with her name on the products but no actual control. It must have been hêll for her to be forced to work for them. And a fitting end since she dodged responsibility for treason and was allowed to live.

Ideally, a high price means high quality. This certainly was true a decade or so back, when brands were producing luxury goods locally and employed local craftspeople to do the work. This meant that, yes, you might spend your whole paycheck (or a few of them) on a bag, but at least it will serve you for years to come. You also knew that the materials used to make your accessory were top-notch and everyone involved was paid fair wages. However, nowadays, that is not necessarily the case.

It's also not something you want to keep that (up to) €50,000 Hermes saddle in. I am not kidding. (They are, however, made to measure.)
This is evident when you check the ethical production score of some of the luxury brands. For example, Versace has not taken any action to minimize microplastic impact or protect biodiversity in its supply chain. Chanel is also not doing anything about the hazardous chemicals used in clothes manufacturing. On top of that, both of them together with Dior and Louis Vuitton have never provided any evidence on paying living wages for everyone in the supply chain. And this is coming from brands that could afford all that.

In Case You Ever Wanted To Look Like A 14th Century Knight And You Have Four Grand Lying Around, Because That's The Sale Price
Milady Blue 2 years ago
Nope. I will head over to a smith at the local SCA, and get REAL armored shoes if the notion takes me, and they would probably be a lot more reasonably priced, too.

Mavis 2 years ago
If I had the money I would buy this for someone I don't like who doesn't have a dog.
Kobe (she) 2 years ago
This is actually okay -if not for that price. Walking the doggo ; you have phone and keys at essentials. Treats for the doggo and bags for the pooh. Besides the price, I don't seen a problem. It is a very handy thing, walking the doggo....

$895 For This Moschino Overlay Dress? Why? Is It A Statement?
Milady Blue 2 years ago
It's a statement, all right. That statement is, "Slap a designer label on it, and somebody with more money than brains will snap it up."

"We ❤️ our customers". I bet you do, if they'll pay sack loads for money for that s**t!

If they have that kind of money, I don't think they would be doing embroidery. IF they do embroidery, they wouldn't spend it on that kit.

Could certainly spend 6k on a lot more but not sure it belongs here. Not as crazy as some of the stuff on here or as insanely expensive. Still of I ever have a spare 6k it certainly won't be spent on this!

I wish you a whole day walking in your "irregular choice" shoes with petal-shaped heels. After, please come back, and share, what a wonderful idea it was to spend for it 640 bucks (on sale).

People talk about old rich vs new rich. In reality, it's productive rich vs consumptive rich. This c**p is for the consumptive rich. Old rich stay away from such conspicuous consumption, because you don't hand down wealth from generation to generation being so stupid. Productive rich buys expensive stuff because it lasts better, works better, serves unique purposes, etc. Consumptive rich buys expensive stuff because they no longer have a clue how to spend so much money but want to show off how much money they want. Productive wealth is reinvested into expanding the economy and comes from filling an underserved societal need or desire; consumptive wealth is parasitic, taking "rent" (look up that economic term!) from society without creating anything beneficial. These are two endpoints on a spectrum. Unfortunately, so much of popular culture is created by the consumptive rich for the purpose of glorifying the consumptive rich.

When I see something like this, it occurs to me that there are people in the world who live in really bad conditions. What could we do with the money instead of developing, buying or selling products for ridiculous amounts of money that no one really needs? Makes me sad. *edit: Don't want to start a political discussion here, but to share this perspective.

I can't shake the feeling that these are intended as a tax on dyslexics. People who can't tell the difference between $10,000 and $100.00 for example.
David A Paterson 2 years ago (edited)
The other feeling I can't shake is that these are like modern art. Something awful that the buyer hopes can be sold for a profit in 20 to 50 years time, and/or a safe temporary portable haven for hot money. Safe in the sense that nobody will steal it.
