I once went into a store where jeans were being sold for $300+. They were paper thin and had no real designs. I was very confused.

@pattycakechamp Those shredded jeans with designer labels going for over $100 a pair. I remember in the 70’s when fringed cut-off shorts came into style and sorority girls would pay big money for those shorts. Like someone said they had the same brand of jeans that were on clearance for $5 in the campus clothing stores (they had slim legs v. The flared leg jean that were then in style) and a person could carefully cut them off and hand-fringe them and save at least $20 a pair that way.

Not really. They break like other clothes most of the time and we grow out of them.

There's no point, it's a status symbol.

designer clothes are usually not worth it

Mostly for status although some brands are very well made and more durable. I also think its a way for the wealthy to feel like they are slumming without actually endangering themselves with slumming, if that makes sense.
