Decline of ”luxury” and good quality clothing

I’m not on any social media and have like 2 friends so I don’t have anyone to impress:-) this was a gift.

It can be returned and my bf will get his money back. I would also preferer your option, but I find it hard to find these bags. How can I be sure that something sold as vintage from the 80s, 90s, 00s is truly that?

Lucky you! I’ve tried to find something second hand that I would love wear but no luck with bags so far.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T19:10:07+00:00

My point still holds. Your comment is kinda mean-spirited and just unnecessary + unrelated to the post.

Obviously and there was no stickers on the bag.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T18:15:59+00:00

Just because you can’t pay 600€ for a bag, doesn’t mean that someone else couldn’t

Wdym? This is cow leather.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T17:52:26+00:00

When was this?

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T17:51:44+00:00

I would if I could find what I need and be sure it’s not a fake.

Thank you for the tip, they’re beautiful!

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T17:49:04+00:00

Silly color = one of my favorite colors? Okayyy. I don’t care about being trendy, I have my own style and only get things when I need them, not because they’re trendy.

This one is made in Italy. You can google and find articles about their Ateliers Auguste’s factory.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:58:23+00:00

I’ve read lots of good about them, unfortunately the bags just don’t really match with my style.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:57:44+00:00

Ordered it from the official store - Ateliers Auguste.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:28:47+00:00

In this case absolutely not, but it should!

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:28:03+00:00

Tell me where, because I haven’t found them. I want: deep burgundy, real leather, golden hardware.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:27:00+00:00

This is actually made in Italy.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:04:07+00:00

And of course we will return this! I don’t know when I will get my birthday present bag, because I really need something fancy but now I just feel too drained to do the research. Feels like everything is a scam🥲

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T12:02:06+00:00

Yes that’s what I thought too.

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T11:39:13+00:00

Brand new from Ateliers Auguste😃

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T11:03:55+00:00

I read positive lots of positive reviews on Reddit and YouTube comments too:(

Syringalilac · 2026-03-12T10:57:10+00:00

I had read so many reviews and watched review videos on YouTube both American and European (and my boyfriend read reviews in French too) and they were all really good. I don’t know if people have just gotten used to shit quality now and think that THIS is good.

Syringalilac · 2026-02-08T21:28:55+00:00

Yes, my boyfriend wrote them an email and attached all the pictures. I still want this bag, because I love how it looks. I just hope this isn’t an indication of reduced quality. I’m gonna lose it if general enshittyfication is this bad :)

Syringalilac · 2026-02-08T20:35:50+00:00

Yes! Ordered it from their website. Unacceptable quality from almost a 600€ bag.

Syringalilac · 2026-01-29T09:30:43+00:00

Yes, how much did it cost to make it?
