The Most Expensive Luxury Fashion Brands

1. OSCAR DE LA RENTA

Oscar de la Renta is one of the biggest names in the fashion industry for a very good reason – he dresses some of the biggest names in the world, literally. He made a name for himself in the 1960s, when he began dressing First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. Since then, he has been a household name and the go-to designer for anyone looking to make a bold but sophisticated statement, from the red carpet to presidential inaugurations. In October 2014, the famed designer passed away due to complications from cancer at his home at the age of 84 years old.

2. LOUIS VUTTION

What is probably the biggest name in luxury handbags and accessories, Louis Vuitton has been boasted by basically every A-list celebrity and entertainer you can think of. Although it’s their handbags and luggage that usually make the most appearance, Louis Vuitton ready-to-wear and evening wear is never far behind. Founded in 1954 by Louis Vuitton, the company also specializes in shoes, watches, jewelry, accessories, sunglasses, and books.

3. PRADA

Few names invoke thoughts of luxury the way Prada does. And with good reason. And an estimated $9.4 billion of worth in the company, those price tags don’t come cheap. Prada products include everything from ready-to-wear leather and fashion accessories, shoes, luggage, watches, outerwear, and more.

4. CHANEL

The name Chanel has become synonymous with high-end fashion and has been for decades. Maybe that’s because the brand has been around since the 1920s, when fashion designer Coco Chanel launched her first perfume line and introduced the Chanel suit. But it was the little black dress that really set Chanel over the top. Coco Chanel was quoted saying, “luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it’s not luxury.” Nearly 100 years later, Chanel remains in the forefront of luxury fashion trends and have never found themselves irrelevant thanks to continuing to push boundaries. That’s probably why the company is currently worth an estimated $7 billion.

5. DIOR

Christian Dior founded the luxury design company Dior all the way back in 1946. Over fifty years later, the brand still remains in the forefront of the haute-couture scene. Their work still includes ready-to-wear products, leather, accessories, footwear, jewelry, fragrance, makeup, and skincare products. So many designers are often accused of piggy-backing off of the inspiration of old trends to create new looks that aren’t really that new at all.
