I don’t know what “designer” means. Help?
If I ask a lay person they would probably say “Gucci” or “Louis Vuitton”. Google says it refers to the actual fashion designers of established fashion houses like Heidi Slimane, Demna Gvasalia, Yohji Yamamoto, etc.
Other people seem to use the term exclusively for luxury brands (Hermés, LP, Zegna, BC etc.). Especially when they make handbags.
So when people say “designer” is it only high fashion/haute couture? Todd Snyder is a brand named after a fashion designer, is that considered designer? Is Freenote Cloth designer since they have a team of designers? What about Levi’s, which is an established brand that has had a large impact on fashion?
