When Mass Brands Attack – Fashionista Fashion In
 

We’ve already discussed the creeping prices of mass brands,Active Sunglasses, and how a Club Monaco dress at full price is the same – or possibly more – than something on sale at Barneys.
But even more mysterious is the new trend of handbags from the mall that cost almost $300.
The bags are featured in an ELLE spread on Cheap Chic,nfl hats, but we’d only consider a $295 bag “cheap” if it came from the Chanel sample sale – not from J. Crew,Jamie Bochert Best Model Comeback – Fashionista Fashion Industry News, Designers, Runway Shows, Style Advice,wholesal new era hats,Fashionista Fashion Industry News, Designers, Runway Shows, Style Advice, like the one at left.
In fact,Football Jerseys, if we had $300 for a handbag,Prada Sunglasses, we’d just buy one from Marc – and we imagine our more conservative friends (okay,wholesale nfl hats, and mom) would buy one from Coach.
Or do mass brands really have the cache to charge designer prices?
