WWD asked designers for their thoughts on the economy, and how to make it better — fashionably. Karl Lagerfeld's suggestion is as follows:
"I think they should make a tax so that when you earn a certain amount of money, you have to spend a certain amount on shopping. To buy whatever … And that way, we create tons of jobs. I think it’s a good idea. What I hate is people with a lot of money who don’t spend it."
Lanvin's Alber Elbaz:
"It’s more difficult to cook with potatoes, eggs and cheese than with caviar ... The pieces that are actually flying from the stores, they’re not the cheapest, the commercial versions, but the special pieces."
Michael Kors:
Manolo Blahnik:"Make clothes that make you look thinner, taller and younger. Steal away the plastic surgery money, because if you cut your clothes well, that’s what you’ll be able to do."
"Designers — do a good product that lasts,something solid, well-done and handmade if possible. Women — invest in good things. The days of cheap things and gimmicks are over. These are new times, different times. You need to buy something that lasts."
