Yves Saint Laurent was actually Kering's biggest earner, but pop culture hyped Gucci, and with Tom Ford's effort to rejuvenate the brand, Gucci became popular amongst the general public. I don't think they really care to reestablish Gucci's luxurious exclusivity because, remember, the middle and lower class purchase more than the upper class. As such, they earn more profit that way. Sure, it may tarnish brand perception, but earning a gross amount of 7.1 billion on average within a year is no easy feat. I don't think Gucci can be considered true luxury anymore, and I don't think that's Kering's objective to begin with. I'd argue LVMH followed a similar path with Louis Vuitton that Kering did with Gucci, except LVMH has way more brands to rely on, if one fails; Kering isn't able to do the same.

It happens the same with cars and houses too. Instead of buying a house with big garden, landscape for maximum privacy people tend to buy ridiculous tacky neo classical houses in high population area just for show off.

"The issue is related to brand perception and image. For about a decade, Gucci was the epitome of maximalism but then had to transition to minimalism in a subtle and gradual way.

I feel like every single brand that was featured in this video gets name checked in hip hop though. So if it’s happening to all of them, it doesn’t make sense that Gucci is the only one to have its sales fall off a cliff. There has to be another variable.

LVMH and Kering just give off the vibe that they want to own everything, a lot of their brands have started to gain a tacky reputation because of the overuse of logos (the former LV and the latter Gucci). Richemont seems like the only other conglomerate that doesn’t have these issues, all of the brands they own still retain their prestige.

It was not an allegation of promoting SA against children. It was a fact. Your friends over at baalenciaga went so far as to put a court-ruling that determined that CP was okay in a certain case within their sick advertisements. FOH with "allegations", it's a fact that you relish such things and many people in the public are on to you!

I love my handcrafted, one of a kind, culturally nuanced, organically created masterpieces that are timeless, heritage products

Dries has no problems selling his clothes. With no advertising or promo ! Fair priced.

Tom Ford's Gucci was slick and sophisticated. He brought it back from a tacky era. ( those cheap gold watches at Macy's) This new low point can be called the greed era, they just pumped out overpriced junk with the logo plastered all over the place. What will happen, certain Tom Ford pieces will be sought after as they become scarce, exclusive and hip again,

Gucci is already revisiting them. Suddenly the horsebit bags are popular again.

Very informative. I used to be a project manager for a store display vendor for some of these brands. It's a difficult business.

At nkuwan it's not just a bag; it's an art piece. Each design is crafted with unique inspiration and craftsmanship. The exquisite production process reveals not just a bag, but a fashionable feast for the senses.

Didn't expect to hear this

Gucci is like Zara or Coach now

Gucci definitely has classy stuff, it’s just not what you recognize, not the tacky white or black t shirt with the logo, or the tacky sneakers with the bee , or the Fanny pack. I’m talking what doesn’t have the logo that you wouldn’t be able to recognize.

I used to love Gucci but they decided to target the wrong crowd. LV is doing the same.

I knew when I started seeing Gucci on love and hip hop. Same with LV. Ive seen S workers with the Neverfull in Philly

LVMH loves when yall make these videos

After LVMH acquire Kering, the whole world work for LVMH

I still love Gucci no matter what people say. The older model.

When you see these designer names in the outlet store mall, then you know that it's the middle and low classes people purchasing these items that show expensive prices at a discount, but may not necessarily be the real thing. The question is, "who are these people trying to impress by buying and showing off?" The uber rich most likely will purchase directly from the designer.

This is an amazing thumbnail.

It lost its Italian roots and now is synonymous with a different type of vibe and culture, which is less aspirational and more tacky.

Because Gen Z spends money on tech and not high-end designer clothes, shoes, bags, etc. Because Gen Y (aka Mills) are too broke & Gen X is in so much debt because they bought all the Gucci.

I can assure Gen X was the last one bought Italian made brands one fifth of today's prices... Their brands spending just got wasted on projects that didn't retain Long Term Customer Values... Such as loyalty that most hotel brands nurture for lifelong repeat purchases.. Accor I think is the most advanced in terms of understanding LTCV..

Gen Z is literally known as the brand-obsessed/designer-obsessed generation. They have been buying this stuff and more. And why? Because they don't see any point in saving for a home they don't think they will ever afford.

@@venus_envy I would say they're the most brainwashed generation out of social media from a very young age. So psychologically they watched too many things not supposed to be on their radars.. Gen X was the last one with a normal upbringing and minimal exposure of Internet trolling due to pricey and slow internet accesss. They saw none beyond their own neighborhood backyard. Today if one just signed up on FB the first thing to see was a child and adult hands in questionable positions.. That's how morally bankrupt the media world we are living in today. The younger the more likely they are unknowingly abused and enslaved to the highest bidders.

If you don't know, in recent years luxury brands have exploded, more than ever!

When I want to buy an expensive product I look for the quality of the garments and the last thing i want is to be a billboard showing everyone a gigantic logo. I tend to choose clothes without logos or very small ones. Big logos look distasteful. People who tend to have that obsession just want to look richer than they really are 🤷🏻‍♂️. Even Primark knows that, i can find some cheap products, that are very simple (no patterns, simple colours) that combined with the right acessories can create a "casual" style

Please come back original gucci envy women parfume. My mom love this parfum and has never bought another Gucci parfume. It's totaly her smell. Beautiful memory.

Alessandro Michelle made Gucci relevant again after Tom Ford but they fired him in 2022 so… now nobody buys Gucci, it looks like Zara.

LVMH shareholder here. I’d also like to add I’d never sell my shares. 😂

In my mind Gucci’s brand positioning is the same as Guess’

It’s because they throw logos on everything and attract the wrong consumer

Where is this Gucci discount rack located? I’d like to know. lol. I’m feeling the brand right now

Their prices are still higher than a lifeguard's chair.

Two words: PRIVATE EQUITY. When Gucci shifted its operations to accomodate the "short term" financial demands of stocks instead of quality and craft, then you have a brand that puts out rubbish for wannabe rich, gangster teenagers. That design aesthetic is the loud and garrish and looks like a "it moment" costume not classic luxury.

That probably explains why after 2023, Gucci's bags started to be more Hermés-like.

Alessandro Michele happened to Gucci. It hasn't been the same since Tom Ford left. Classic style replaced with Grandma hobo chic

Lol that hairy slippers.. bazookahands also had them.. 😂

It is incredibly difficult to "lift" a brand's image in any industry, but especially in fashion, ecause, particularly in the fashion industry, the only way to really make people think your clothing and accessories are worth more is to restrict market access and make fewer of them, while raising prices. This can be a really unappealing thing to do in any industry, because of the short-term revenue loss, but it's particularly unpalatable in fashion, because that's an industry where people already feel like they're getting ripped off a lot of the time. Plus, by manufacturing fewer of your products you run the risk of people simply forgetting about them.

It's the end result of when a luxury brand goes from high end luxury items only (rich can afford), to price points for mass marketing of all consumers. Doesn't help that mass marketed items with flashy names are seemingly preferred by those associated with less than high moral standards.

By the way the cover picture was quite appropriate 😂😂

Look up Nick Knight “blade of light”

All those collaborations with Rap thugs have ruined the image of the brand. It’s become the new Tommy Hilfiger 😊

this is why brands get picky about who they want to market their designs to and why they want to gatekeep it for certain consumers. If your fashion falls in the wrong hands… your brand becomes synonymous with their aesthetic and what happens next is it’s not worth that “exclusivity” price any longer. Exclusivity = Luxury

There is a Gucci store at the mall. Every time I go there is security guard and a rope at entrance. Meanwhile there is nobody in the store 😂 so apparently it’s so “exclusive” that even the most VIP clients are excluded.
