Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior Lower Prices in Japan

Posted on: Dec 5

The economic crisis might have hit the world hard, but Japanese fashion lovers have some reason to smile. Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior have just lowered their prices in stores across the country.

Louis Vuitton dropped the price of its goods by seven percent last Saturday. The savings see the Japanese paying less for leather goods, accessories, ready-to-wear clothes, shoes, watches, and jewelry.

The fashion house revised the cost of its goods based on their policy "to offer its products at appropriate prices" based on exchange rate fluctuation, manufacturing costs, and quality considerations. The strength of the yen against the euro in recent weeks has been good news for Japanese handbag fans!

And the savings on Christian Dior are even better. A few days ago the French designer slashed the price of its ladies' and mens' bags, small leather goods, and shoes by eight percent.

It sounds like it might be time to book that flight to Tokyo!
