So let me get this straight... the brands saw everyone pivoting to pre-loved because of shoddy quality and exorbitant pricing, decided it was a vintage/nostalgia thing, and relaunched the old favourites to catch the trend. Even though the same shoddy quality and exorbitant pricing persists.... reality check, aisle 2 😂
And dont forget LV raised their repair prices because they noticed a lot of people were bringing their preloved purchases in for repair instead of buying a new bag....
Maybe it's a sign for you to look into lesser known brands, novelty bags or quirky independent bag designers who'll design according to your wish just like your wedding designer bag. Your welcome. ❤✨
I love smaller niche brands. I no longer care or idealize luxury. I rather a 300 - 500 all leather nice bag over 8000 dollar bag with the same material but less attention.
I think brands are also trying to establish “classic” lines, relaunching styles from the past emphasizes the “timelessness” of the bags and thus solidifying the classic status.
I once read that in times of financial hardship and recession, we turn to nostalgia. I wasn’t a massive fan of 90s style bags at the time (plus I was a student in that decade so couldn’t afford them), but am celebrating the return of 90s baggy jeans 👏🏼
I think Dior did a really great job with the re-edition of the Saddle bag. So many different iterations for both women and men, and not just a re-issue of the same bag design. :)
Not necessarily.. these brands are all owned by one company so even if you don't buy one particular brand but buy from another... your money goes to the same bank account
I was thinking that there are generations though that would covet certain bags until they can finally buy their own so I am glad they keep the classics. There are still several on my wish list!
I noticed It’s across the entire art industry . Hollywood is doing a ton of spin-offs of loved movies . For example mean girls the musical, the new hunger games , the up and coming princess diaries. Soooo nostalgic, even a spin off of the color purple. It’s like everyone recycle lol I love
I actually like the they revamping certain collections especially with Louis Vuitton I wasn’t collecting or purchasing where I missed out …now it give me a chance to add the revamped piece into my collection
Hi Cassie, yet another insightful video. Fashion is very cyclical everything comes back around that’s why I never really get rid of anything if I’m done with tag it inventory it store it it will come back around.💚💚💚💚
Great video Cassie! I think that what we are seeing is a lack of creativity in all art forms (architecture, fashion design, movies, entertainers,etc) so we are returning to when art made us feel something, all of this, in addition to the great quality of vintage items.
Oh Cassie. Most of these things need to take the Las Vegas motto. What happened in the past should stay in the past! The fashion world is about creativity and innovation. For this we can purchase preloved. Maybe since I already lived through it I’m over it lol 😂
I think Prada can get away with coming out with re-editions because most of their styles are so classic and iconic. They're great if you need a elegant classy simply tote, shoulder bag, backpack, duffle bag. Simple leather and style, classic logo.
And they are responsible for the second boom of Halfmoon bags, I’m loving this trend, is a really beautiful shape and so versatile to be casual or dressy, I’m loving these Halfmoon shape bags. Let’s also thank Prada for creating the hysteria for the guitar fabric straps. At first I hated the trend now I love it
Not for nothing... I've recently bought 2 vintage Louisv Vuitton Canvas items from Ebay for like $100 each and just made sure the exterior canvas was immaculate. Then I went to LV and told them they were passed down to me and paid them to completely gut and replace the insides. Per item, I pay a total of $400ish bucks. Sure, I could pay $600-700 for something comparable brand new from the boutique, but 1) the styles I bought are 40+ years old and discontinued and the new styles dont interest me but 2) my biggest reason is that the Canvas LV used back them is DURABLE. It literally is 40 years old and looks stunning. Meanwhile the new canvas is more matte and feels more like a supple dry leather (even though its clearly not). I will continue buying ebay vintage and paying LV to repair them.
Agreed! I love to find the vintage pieces because they're different and stand out, while still being on trend and in style. Plus, there's usually a significant savings and I'm not as careful with it and tend to enjoy the item more than I do new pieces. I tend to try to keep new items in good condition, and I know I should just use them. But a pre-loved item (even in excellent condition) is different for me, and that's just my weird thinking. I know there shouldn't really be a difference🤣
I have thoughts about this. While it can feel uncreative and lazy that these brands are putting out rejigged archive pieces, I do think there's an art form to knowing which archive style to pick. Not every reedition bag sells equally well. Also, while I love pre-loved/vintage in theory, I have to say that the uncertainty of where some of these pieces come from puts me off. Yes, there are many safeguards in place now to ensure authenticity, but between Tamara sharing that she found some of her stolen bags on the preloved market and someone stealing a Louis Vuitton bag out of my dying grandmother's apartment at the care home that's presumably now being sold somewhere, I feel a bit gross about pre-loved at the moment.
Good Morning Cassie! You're looking really good in this Diesel shirt👌 Although i'm not that into luxury, i think that some editions are done well ( in my personal opinion) like the Prada (crystal version) ones. But i think everyone should do what they like but i can understand your point with the laziness that nothing new or innovative is released. Wishing you a nice day😊
I have a Gucci bag from 1985 ish. Parents got it for me in Europe. It was a bit worn and not my style. I had it redone!! It is what I want and fits me!!
looking good in diesel shirt ... thoroughly enjoyed it ...pre loved market is not for me so I kinda into re launching but for the classics or something really cool ...like Paris hiltons those big canvas bags from loius vuitton
Yes, they are. Reissues as new It Bags? Absolutely not. Which is why Matthieu's Bottega and Jonathan's Loewe occupies a very special place in my heart right now. Chanel has just clearly given up, that creative flair sailed long ago after Virginie debuted the 22.
The target audience is around 18 and 40s, these are the groups setting the trends and spending the most money. With that said, this is new to half of that crowd but nostalgic to the other. I think being at an age where we notice that the trend is making a wrap around is why it bothers us more. Our parents talked about re-released styles all the time.
I don't think it's lazy...for me it's nostalgic. when a lot of these collections dropped back in the early 2000's most of us were still in high school with out a job. in a way these companeys are letting us relive our high school dreams 🤣
I feel like the success of the Saddle by Dior created that trend and actually inspired the designers studios to continue with the formula. It's difficult to create a new, fresh or successful bag. It's also difficult to create a story-telling for a bag that is not necessarily creative or just "there". I don't know if the reissue bags Prada has released over the years were that successful in 1995 or the early 00's, but by re-releasing those bags, they can build a romanticized story-telling around them. I think with Phoebe at Celine, there was a new wave of experimentations in bags. Loewe, Vuitton, Dior, Chanel and more have created or at least tried to introduce new models of bags in the 2010's. MGC broke that phase. Now, every brand is going backwards. Even Marc Jacobs tried to revive the Stam bag.
Honestly, maybe the world doesn't need obsessive new anything thirty-two times a year? Maybe less things need to be made, but they need to be well made. Eye on the quality. Creativity needs quiet, needs time, needs pause. How many collections are being put out every year? A designer sends out their first collection and the world either crowns or decimates them...I mean, can we just STOP and breathe in fashion? And allow others the same? Sorry. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk-Rant.
I think you are right on the money (literally). How many collections were there in the 80s, 90s, and y2k vs. today? Design houses need to go into their archives to keep up with the hype cycles. That said, a well done, thoughtful re-edition once in a while isn’t necessarily a bad thing-I love my Prada re-edition 2005(?).
OMG, I be binging your channel. I love your content. I got a video idea for you. I think you should talk about some of the, say like Chanel archive bags and why there famous. That'll be a tuff video not gonna lie!!😂
I actually like the relaunch of these vintage bags. To me it reinforces a that some bags are classic. I think if it comes back at least once then it’s considered either a revived trend or a classic. I see the Chanel Kelly as a classic tbh. I think it’s good for circular fashion to bring more attention to vintage old things. I don’t feel as much pressure to buy the newest hot thing now. I think it’s clear how fast the fashion cycles have become with all these million diff trends flying around and honestly I like it! It means more than ever ppl can wear whatever style/era of things they want.
Literally bought a purple suede chanel kelly for $875 in may, 4 months later saw someone selling a similar one for $25000. Flabbergasted, but feeling greatful!
I'm 40. What was cool in my youth seems so horrible now, so noooo I do not understand the love for vintage pieces that remind me of my shameful past lol. What happened in Vegas stays in Vegas, and that includes that Louis Vuitton denim purse sleeping in my closet. As well as that white Murakami..as well as those Prada vinyl backpacks ...arrrgh .....let us forget when we were young and stupid and move on please?
It’s the same for music, they just keep remaking songs that we grew up with because they can’t come up with their own stuff. There are so many creative Indie designers that could literally bring life to any of these brands, and they refuse to hire them but they’ll steal their ideas. I left a comment on Super Dacob’s channel that it would’ve been better if they just kept some of these pieces in their line for a few decades, same, classic colors may be a new color every season as a limited edition, but that’s how you create loyalty, demand, and longevity. But no, they want to come up with new stuff that they end up having overstock up because nobody bought it cause nobody likes it because it wasn’t pretty in the first place and only a few people that are easily influenced bought it. The vintage items they are reissuing should’ve been in the line the whole time anyway. They need to bring back the Louis Vuitton cabas line and add a mini for the tbe fans. I only buy vintage now, I don’t think the price of anything is worth it anymore. Even if I had disposable income like that, I would honestly build little homes for homeless people, buy land for the future. I would be investing that money I would not be giving it to these brands that are literally ripping us off. And I have over 120 designer bags. I just don’t like being taken advantage of. I’ll still buy scarves shoes, perfume accessories, but not the bags. Not anymore. I’ll wait two or three years when they’re on the Preloved market for like half price I can handle delayed gratification.
I also think the re-editions make the bag seem more timeless and therefore “worth” the very high price. With a new bag, who knows if the style will seem super dated in a year or two…
Great video as always. I know its not a beauty channel, but i want to try my luck and ask for a video on how you did this beautiful look? You look so fresh, Ca$$ie! ❤
Actually I am more inclined to buy these reissued designs than a totally new style in the market. Feels like they are truly classics of the fashion houses and will be here to stay. For example, I don't see why LV capuchine is worth the price they ask for. There's no story nor vintage to justify the style.. I rather spend lesser on a Fendi Baguette. Just my opinion.
Hi! What are some of your fav, well-trusted, pre-loved sites? I'm a fan of Grailed and TRR (although now Im a bit nervous since I didn't know there were authenticity issues!). xoxo
The problem probably is these luxury brands are running out of there creativity. Imagine if some of these luxury brands got some of there customers to design a bag an then send off the sketches to them an they make an sell them. I feel that would be cool then people can all wear there dream bags an all of them will look different an unique.
Personally I think its time to turn down dior / chanel/ etc etc as they no longer fall under luxury. 80% can and have already owned one of these brands. Nothing special just a waste of monies. They take our hard earned monies and use it to support some other G stuff which isn't appreciated.
There used to be more variety in the past. Now, if you don't see the brands' logo on some of the bags, you can't really tell which brand they belong to.
Ever since they've started doing this, I have 0 motivation to buy. none of the bags out there are catching my fancy at all, it's a lazy time in fashion and I will not be participating. I need novelty and innovation, which is what these fashion houses were ORIGINALLY known for - otherwise it's not worth the price of luxury.
I think main difference in concept of buying vintage versus original is "the authenticity". It's like choosing do you want the real Louis XVI chair from 18th century or one "reproduced" today. Maybe nostalgia for a certain period is more than a nostalgia for the "it product", maybe it is a nostalgia of certain way of doing things back then that fashion now has lost. This "value" of vintage pieces as a souvenir of lost values of fashion industry is never considered and it is certainly not going to be satiated with act of buying a re edition of the it bag. So, dear fashion industry, back to the drawing board and think again.
Interesting video but I think this perspective is very skewed towards the big popular brands + basic shapes... I work in fashion merchandising, and brands nowadays are really pushing new shapes and styles more than ever.. Every brand, even those that are known for classics, have sooo many shapes and functions available in bags.
Im a young designer myself. I think the fashion houses take way less risk then they used to. They are very risk averse with their direction in product. And also I think they are missing the true talents at these houses. Anyways young luxury brands to check out: Wandler and Amina muaddi and Botter.
This is actually also why we keep getting the same movies over and over. Why try anything new when we can just do another superhero film with the exact same characters as the last one? There was a great article about it in the film industry.
Personally I am not a huge fan of re- releases, if it’s a style that works then it’s an evergreen that it should be in the collection season after season even after decades so the consumer knows they are buying a classic ( period ) and it would be repairable if that day does come. If it is a seasonal item then there is the joy of the hunt in the second hand market, there is no shame in that.
There are tone of very interesting brands who make very beautifull bags, but yeah... we all love Capitalist big conglomerats and it's inthinkable we giving our money to modest names, even if you love thier design and even if sometime de quality is better than the big brands... so i imagine we customers are fucked... by ourselves.
But the two bags are not the same. They may look the same, that is just a front. They are not the same bag. The vintage Chanel Kelly is a far superior bag than the new one, so its still worth buying the vintage one.
Why come out with a new bag? So many styles have been done now and times are gone when new bags didnt come out so often. Plus if laziness can win then why not. Plus cutting corners in this industry is nothing new. Why not cut corners with having new ideas? Plus most sequels are rubbish. But hey as long as people keep buying then nothing will change.
“oOHhWeeeehh wHaT DId we do in ThE EaRLY 2000s.” 😂😂😂 definitely lazy dressed up as minimalism. Obviously nothing wrong with that aesthic, just don’t like corporations persuade you into believing that you actually enjoy or want that aesthetic part of your wardrobe. EDIT: moral of the video, be inspired by trends not driven by them :)
😂 ugh bring back the roaring 20s fashion with a modern 2020s twist…..I’ll line up for that!! NOT 90s lol gross Yes, lately, fashion isn’t really captivating at all, as you said Cassie, they’re being lazy and not coming up with authentic ideas, maybe a solution could be a fashion house taking in a top class film / tv costume designer who’d shake things up a bit. If I was 90 yrs old what fashion would I reminisce and miss??! lol nothing really…sweats? Denim? That’s it and that’s sad lol I love good old 20/30/40s styles, it was classy and chic. I wear leather gloves now when I go out….ppl give me looks but some are intrigued too. Let’s start a revolution!
Why is everyone such a fan of Ferragako. They were such a dead brand as of a few years ago. They were always such an old ladies brand and they come out with one kinda ugly square 80s style box bag in flashy colors and everyone is gung ho about it
A sucker is born every minute so the saying goes. Please explain why you would spend $$$ on bags worth at best $50? Is it because you feel that it says “I can afford this bag and you can’t?” Explain please.
So let me get this straight... the brands saw everyone pivoting to pre-loved because of shoddy quality and exorbitant pricing, decided it was a vintage/nostalgia thing, and relaunched the old favourites to catch the trend. Even though the same shoddy quality and exorbitant pricing persists.... reality check, aisle 2 😂
😂😂😂
Yesss - ❤❤
Underrated comment 👏
And dont forget LV raised their repair prices because they noticed a lot of people were bringing their preloved purchases in for repair instead of buying a new bag....
Also it sucks that our parents paid $300 for a new design and we are being asked to pay $3000 for an old one.
Yes!!!
Maybe it's a sign for you to look into lesser known brands, novelty bags or quirky independent bag designers who'll design according to your wish just like your wedding designer bag. Your welcome. ❤✨

Thoughts on Delvaux? They're very under the radar despite being older than Hermes.
Time to try Mulberry Cassie? X
I love smaller niche brands. I no longer care or idealize luxury. I rather a 300 - 500 all leather nice bag over 8000 dollar bag with the same material but less attention.
Wow someone would actually design me a dream bag that I want if I give them the description. That sounds amazing.
I think brands are also trying to establish “classic” lines, relaunching styles from the past emphasizes the “timelessness” of the bags and thus solidifying the classic status.
Agreed 100%
I once read that in times of financial hardship and recession, we turn to nostalgia. I wasn’t a massive fan of 90s style bags at the time (plus I was a student in that decade so couldn’t afford them), but am celebrating the return of 90s baggy jeans 👏🏼
Ahhh that’s an interesting point!
If I were a luxury brand I’d be so excited I don’t have to design anything new for a while 😂
😂😂
I always get a spike of joy when I watch Cassie
🥹💖
Me,too!
I think Dior did a really great job with the re-edition of the Saddle bag. So many different iterations for both women and men, and not just a re-issue of the same bag design. :)
Can you link the re-edition? Is it the one with the thick strap

I just bought a 2003 BB Alma in vernis leather for just $500. It was too good not to buy. So yes buying vintage is a great options

Morning my Cass Cass!! The quality of some these brands are getting worse and worse poorly done. So it might be laziness who know.

Maybe it’s more the couture houses want to get the $$ into their pockets than the resellers preloved pockets. 😂
Love your videos❤

I feel like the success of the Saddle by Dior created that trend and actually inspired the designers studios to continue with the formula. It's difficult to create a new, fresh or successful bag.

I also think the re-editions make the bag seem more timeless and therefore “worth” the very high price. With a new bag, who knows if the style will seem super dated in a year or two…
Everything comes back in fashion every 20 years. Doesn't necessarily mean it will be timeless
Great video as always. I know its not a beauty channel, but i want to try my luck and ask for a video on how you did this beautiful look? You look so fresh, Ca$$ie! ❤
It also seems like every movie is a remake of an older movie or based on a book.. maybe we’re just an unoriginal generation overall.
Actually I am more inclined to buy these reissued designs than a totally new style in the market. Feels like they are truly classics of the fashion houses and will be here to stay.
For example, I don't see why LV capuchine is worth the price they ask for. There's no story nor vintage to justify the style.. I rather spend lesser on a Fendi Baguette. Just my opinion.
They are Overdoing. How many bags can be created every year?
Love watching Cassie, you are so relatable and also so pretty too 😊.. my girl crush ngl. I'm not lesbian btw hehe
Hi! What are some of your fav, well-trusted, pre-loved sites? I'm a fan of Grailed and TRR (although now Im a bit nervous since I didn't know there were authenticity issues!). xoxo
I want a lady dior but im not paying retail. The bag is worth 4k not 6k
The problem probably is these luxury brands are running out of there creativity. Imagine if some of these luxury brands got some of there customers to design a bag an then send off the sketches to them an they make an sell them. I feel that would be cool then people can all wear there dream bags an all of them will look different an unique.
Personally I think its time to turn down dior / chanel/ etc etc as they no longer fall under luxury. 80% can and have already owned one of these brands. Nothing special just a waste of monies. They take our hard earned monies and use it to support some other G stuff which isn't appreciated.
Its Ferragamo bag first then Chanel Kelly. The Gucci new clutch Beautiful better the colorfull leather than monogram
I am a preloved person myself the og is sometimes best
There used to be more variety in the past. Now, if you don't see the brands' logo on some of the bags, you can't really tell which brand they belong to.
The big brands are cementing their dominance. Nostalgia is what keeps them going not quality
I agree . they're very lazy with bags
Bags are boring I know
Ever since they've started doing this, I have 0 motivation to buy. none of the bags out there are catching my fancy at all, it's a lazy time in fashion and I will not be participating. I need novelty and innovation, which is what these fashion houses were ORIGINALLY known for - otherwise it's not worth the price of luxury.
Perfect video😍
Thank you! 😄
💯 agree
I think main difference in concept of buying vintage versus original is "the authenticity". It's like choosing do you want the real Louis XVI chair from 18th century or one "reproduced" today. Maybe nostalgia for a certain period is more than a nostalgia for the "it product", maybe it is a nostalgia of certain way of doing things back then that fashion now has lost. This "value" of vintage pieces as a souvenir of lost values of fashion industry is never considered and it is certainly not going to be satiated with act of buying a re edition of the it bag. So, dear fashion industry, back to the drawing board and think again.
Interesting video but I think this perspective is very skewed towards the big popular brands + basic shapes... I work in fashion merchandising, and brands nowadays are really pushing new shapes and styles more than ever.. Every brand, even those that are known for classics, have sooo many shapes and functions available in bags.
From the packaging to the details of the bags, I think the gucids shop has made reproduction an art form.
Very true
I feel like Bottega is the only company in recent times that doesn't do this
True!!
Im a young designer myself. I think the fashion houses take way less risk then they used to. They are very risk averse with their direction in product. And also I think they are missing the true talents at these houses. Anyways young luxury brands to check out: Wandler and Amina muaddi and Botter.
This is actually also why we keep getting the same movies over and over. Why try anything new when we can just do another superhero film with the exact same characters as the last one? There was a great article about it in the film industry.
The constant tweaks and colourways make it difficult to tell the real from the fakes as noone knows what's what. Some designer bags look tacky.
Personally I am not a huge fan of re- releases, if it’s a style that works then it’s an evergreen that it should be in the collection season after season even after decades so the consumer knows they are buying a classic ( period ) and it would be repairable if that day does come. If it is a seasonal item then there is the joy of the hunt in the second hand market, there is no shame in that.
As soon as I see "re-addition", I say pass. If I want a classic, I'll go for it. Otherwise I want something fresh. 🍒
I hear you Heather!
There are tone of very interesting brands who make very beautifull bags, but yeah... we all love Capitalist big conglomerats and it's inthinkable we giving our money to modest names, even if you love thier design and even if sometime de quality is better than the big brands... so i imagine we customers are fucked... by ourselves.
For sure money 💵 makers
redesigning = cutting corners and releasing the same model with worse quality
I find the re-editions look a bit more plastic-y than the OG. It loses all the character so I'd definitely buy the vintage.
But the two bags are not the same. They may look the same, that is just a front. They are not the same bag. The vintage Chanel Kelly is a far superior bag than the new one, so its still worth buying the vintage one.
Are you trying to ruffle some feathers Cassie? Lol
Hahaha 😂
Why come out with a new bag? So many styles have been done now and times are gone when new bags didnt come out so often. Plus if laziness can win then why not. Plus cutting corners in this industry is nothing new. Why not cut corners with having new ideas? Plus most sequels are rubbish. But hey as long as people keep buying then nothing will change.
They've been lazy.
“oOHhWeeeehh wHaT DId we do in ThE EaRLY 2000s.” 😂😂😂 definitely lazy dressed up as minimalism. Obviously nothing wrong with that aesthic, just don’t like corporations persuade you into believing that you actually enjoy or want that aesthetic part of your wardrobe.
EDIT: moral of the video, be inspired by trends not driven by them :)
😂 ugh bring back the roaring 20s fashion with a modern 2020s twist…..I’ll line up for that!! NOT 90s lol gross
Yes, lately, fashion isn’t really captivating at all, as you said Cassie, they’re being lazy and not coming up with authentic ideas, maybe a solution could be a fashion house taking in a top class film / tv costume designer who’d shake things up a bit.
If I was 90 yrs old what fashion would I reminisce and miss??! lol nothing really…sweats? Denim? That’s it and that’s sad lol I love good old 20/30/40s styles, it was classy and chic. I wear leather gloves now when I go out….ppl give me looks but some are intrigued too. Let’s start a revolution!
Why is everyone such a fan of Ferragako. They were such a dead brand as of a few years ago. They were always such an old ladies brand and they come out with one kinda ugly square 80s style box bag in flashy colors and everyone is gung ho about it
I'm early.
I love it
A sucker is born every minute so the saying goes. Please explain why you would spend $$$ on bags worth at best $50? Is it because you feel that it says “I can afford this bag and you can’t?” Explain please.
I feel like more and more people are looking for that “heritage” quality, and “new” doesn’t really hit that mark
