Yes, the upcharge for trunk shows can be quite substantial, due to travel costs, accommodation and so on. Also, if they are being hosted by a business, there can be a monetary relationship there, too, which increases the cost of the clothing.
That's disappointing. I would have thought that when travelling they would get enough orders to make it worthwhile for them even at standard pricing. Especially when you consider theu could certainly claim on all the travel expenses as well.
I'll never have the opportunity to spend a few months in Naples though, so I suppose I have no choice but to pay the premium if i ever want to try Neapolitan tailoring. Or I guess I can go MTM .
