Designer Brands You Will Never Buy

[blktauna]

Chanel, Balenciaga, Celine because not my speed at all
Goyard because they fall apart if you look at them

LV, Gucci. don't hate these brands, but am not interested in LV because they have so many monogram bags in their lineup and i really hate monogram. Gucci because their monogram bags are hideous and those without monograms (like marmont) are unfortunately marred by yellow-gold hardware...

I still don't like prada bags. Sorry to those that do though. I also still won't buy any Michael Kors or Tory Burch (just don't like the style).

Goyard, balenciaga and Dior. Goyard because I already have one and its quality is terrible, balenciaga because of its aesthetics and Dior because I saw Alex of hrh recently post a video of her Dior bag which was already falling apart. Not impressed. Oh and mansur gavriel because I have owned two and they did not hold up well after a short period of use and their prices have skyrocketed since becoming popular and I do not think vegetable tanned bags are worth that price! And like the PF poster above - likely no canvas bags from LV. The price point has gotten crazy given that it's a canvas bag. Finally no Gucci canvas either. I've had two and one had its stitching start coming apart after two months of use along the top of the bag and I had the handle fall off another one. I have thought about the marmont but I think Gucci is overhyped now.

Patina is a matter of personal preference, but I feel compelled to add that I think vegetable tanned leather is certainly worth the price because of how much better it is for the environment, not to mention that it is a more masterful craft that takes weeks up to two months to complete

Back to topic, I knew a Fendi personally and though I have nothing against the family, I feel odd carrying a bag labeled with the name of someone I once knew rather well but wasn't particularly good friends with LOL.

Any new insight?

Gucci bags. Don ´t ger me wrong, I like design of marmont bag, but gold HW is not my cup of tea. Friend of mine had Dionysus bag in beige and wear and tear is terrible. Sylvie bags are nice but boxy.

I don't want to say never but I can't see myself buying an LV monogram bag. I don't like monograms in general and I really don't like the LV monogram. I've learned not to say never because I recently bought an MK bag that I just had to have even though before then I never saw an MK bag that interest me.

LOL... Years ago I said pretty much the same thing. Then I bought an LV DE bag.
It's the most practical bag I own, and I finally understood why people loved it.

So like you, I never say "never" again..

And I will never buy Chanel WOC....The WOC is beautiful, but for me unpractical. I love my long wallet, I need card holder with my ID, DL and insurance cards, plus my phone and keys and card to office.... WOC is just too small for me..... And I know, I can use it as a clutch..... But than you have to put a chain insite (?), so you just lost space.

Chanel and lv. IMO, Chanel’s classic quilting pattern looks old. And lv bags, well, the only pattern I like is the damier azur one, but still, it feels like a lot to pay for coated canvas. I think if I got a bag I loved from either of those brands, I would be too scared to wear them because I know how much they cost.(lol)

 

[swallowtails]

Nothing obvious in terms of style/brand/logo, so not LV, Dior, Chanel and Gucci. I used to like Goyard as the exception but the canvas and leather quickly show wear even after a year or two. Also don't fancy luxury bags made of canvas and nylon given how much they cost.

I would never own a MK bag. The way some feel about LV is the way I feel about Michael Kors bags. Maybe its because I see at least 2 or 3 everywhere I go.

I HATE, HATE, HATE, the weaved strips of leather look, so I will probably never buy a BV. I love Loewe but even their new weaved leather straps bag makes me physically recoil

 

[Joule]

Probably the majority of them - but not because I harbor any hatred! My reasons for eschewing so many brands have more to do with wanting to stay safely within the boundaries of what I already know will work for my own (lack of) style, rather than a dislike of the designers. It's always the same: I cultivate a fierce and absurd loyalty to two or three brands. Should they evolve beyond my comfort zone, I get crabby about it, call it quits and find a new love. I'm a fashion coward and I admit it.

Or maybe I'm just lazy. Six of one...

Oops forgot to say that I do have one mini square I got as a gift and I do use it, but more for sentimental reasons. I wouldn't buy a chanel bag by myself for myself because of the price.
