It is really sad how women go crazy for such fashionable stuff FROM CHINA! Italian made products are produced with better materials and craftsmanship. I guess the lower cost stuff is the money maker, eh?

As you said yourself: they're cheaper.

It means that the look counts more than the substance.

Don't some of the luxury brands outsource too now? The final product may be assembled in Italy or wherever, but all the supplies are coming from under-developed countries. They literally just do the final stitches in Italy and say it's "assembled in Italy" or "handcrafted in Italy" or "proudly made with the best ltalian craftsmanship". I would buy expensive things if I knew they were actually made entirely in a country known for certain industries.
