Do you love high fashion, but hate the high prices? Well we’ve got some great news for you! A veteran fashion designer has decided to create a new line of affordable pieces for women who are heavily involved in the fashion industry, but lack the bottomless wallets to be able to afford everything from pricey brands. Thakoon Panichgul (whose fans include Michelle Obama, Anna Wintour, and Emma Stone), came out with his eponymous label, Thakoon, which will sell high-quality, fashion-forward, fresh-off-the-runway streetwear for no more than $225!!
Panichgul is primarily concerned with his consumer who’s realizing that she doesn’t want, nor can she afford, to spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars on clothing. The designer says that while “There’s certainly consumers that are still spending at those price points…more than not, there are a lot more customers in the mainstream that are really engaged in fashion, but they don’t have the same income. We’ve got to be able to address them as well.” This is a huge step for those whose pockets are less deep than others, as well as the fashion community in general, as it becomes more accessible to every type of consumer.
