The term luxury is thrown around a lot in the world of fashion and advertising. It is one of those ambiguous words that means something different to nearly everyone. And the term itself need not apply only to the realm of fashion. Luxury can be anything or any feeling or sentiment. Luxury can be a car. It can be a favorite restaurant that you can only afford to eat at a few times a year. Maybe it’s a favorite scent. Luxury is what you want it to be and you can relate to anything. Even time is a luxury to many. In this fast paced world, time is a hot commodity. Most of us need more of it. That’s why it’s such a luxury. Any free time we have shouldn’t be taken for granted.
But my comments today focus on luxury designer fashion. Everyone has a favorite label, but what I want to know is why? What makes that luxury fashion label so amazing? Is it the product? Perhaps it is the way the product is made and a certain level of high quality craftsmanship. Maybe you have an emotional attachment to it because growing up someone like your mother or grandmother wore the label. I find it refreshing when people have a different luxury fashion lines as their favorites. The world would be so boring if we all liked the same lines and everyone wore identical outfits. Fashion is about tapping into your own style and wearing what makes you feel the most comfortable. Fashion shouldn’t always be taken so seriously, but when you are spending big bucks for a luxury label, the clothes and accessories need to be well made so they last a long time. They also need to be able to stand on their own and be in style for many years to come.
One of my favorite luxury designer labels is PLIA Designs. They are known for their women’s accessories. Most of my designer handbags are from PLIA Designs. What I love about this label is their dedication and level of craftsmanship. For me personally, craftsmanship is the height of luxury. When someone takes the time to make each piece by hand, that is luxury. PLIA Designs keeps all quality control and manufacturing in house. Their full time leather craftsman creates each of their designer bags one by one. This means that human hands, not machines make their products. My stance on luxury designer fashion is that it must have a level of quality and craftsmanship behind it and PLIA Designs certainly does.
