I was thinking about the various bespoke makers yesterday and wondered how they might fare in a recession...on one hand it seems that many have been a bit backlogged in work so maybe the the sales pipeline buys them some time...on the other hand, we have to be realistic and admit that $5K shoes and $6K suits are quite a luxury item and several indicators suggest even the wealthy are scaling back.
What do you think will happen?
Will the global recessions hurt a niche industry? Will we see some shops close?
Or will the bigger names muddle through and live to fight another day?
