How often do you buy branded items ?

I was last year at an outlet in the city of Nerdlingen in Germany, branded items from past collections are sold there at a discount of up to 90 percent, but some still remain with a very high value, I tried on a dress that cost several hundred euros, I do not dispute they are all very beautiful, I even allowed myself to buy something, but the question is whether these things are worth such money?

@LadyDuck You are an Italian, you may know that there is a town in Italy where labourers from abroad produce these brand items in so-called sweat shops. Unfortunately, I've forgotten the name of the town. I seem to remember that it is in Tuscany.
The important thing is to sew a famous label on a cheap item. You can then double the price.

I live not far away from such an outlet. I went there once to have a look at what was on offer. I bought a watch but no clothes. I'm not interested in branded stuff as I don't live a life where I could show off with such things. No friend or acquaintance of mine would even recognise a branded item.

@saytama There is a saying in German, "The ones who show off, need it." I don't need to show off. I have enough self-confidence.
If someone showed me an expensive watch and mentioned the price, I'd make a silly remark like, "Does it show a better time than a cheap one?" Or, "Look, my cheap watch shows the same time."

@saytama Ooh alright. It's only few times that I bought branded clothes but now two years later they are worn out.

I'm not a fan of branded things either, but some really look good

I think if a person is happy from within, material things wont matter much. But personally, I have issues so somehow shopping for something that make me feel better about myself is still something I deal with.

@saytama For laptops it is of course best to buy good brands I think. I have nt bought something I really like in a long time.
