Designer clothes for kids

Designer clothes for kids?  Yup.  How much do you spend on your clothes?  And how many years do they last?  Well imagine spending $300 on a dress for a toddler that will last a few months.  It happens!  Luxury brands like Gucci, Oscar de la Renta, and Dolce & Gabbana have extensions of their luxury adult clothing lines that cater to children – as young as newborns!

What do you think of this?  Is it crazy or cool?  I think it’s absurd.  Children’s clothes that you buy at The Gap or The Children’s Place are already expensive enough for the amount of time the kids will actually wear them before they grow out.  And what is this teaching kids once they get to 8 years old and they start understanding the concept of designer brands?  Dressing kids in designer brand clothes is to show off the brand and the money spent to other adults.  The child isn’t going to know the difference in what they’re wearing.  It’s wrong to spend money for something frivolous like clothes that will only last a few months and to use your kids to show off.  What’s up with these people who buy this stuff?
