- Guest42 5y agoOut of curiosity, do you have numbers or specific insights on this? Whenever I’ve looked at European wages and costs of living it seemed as though not many would have access to the resources necessary for luxury goods, from my cursory levels of research.
- bijant 5y agoThat’s the point of luxury goods in Europe. They are not payed out of wages but out of your (inherited) fortune.
- arthur_sav 5y agoFYI most luxury brands come from EU and in particular France. We just tend to not eat our own bullshit, luxury clothing is for dumb people with money.

- poloopolo 5y agoYeah, you might rationalize it that way but the fact remains for the avg European those brands are pretty solidly out of reach. No one said there was no one who can afford them.
