Nine designers, buyers, and founders muse on their own definitions of a fashion investment piece.

“I believe that in the time before social media, fashion was fashion. Today, there is little left for real creativity and long-term vision. Everything is an instant hit with no real substance. We have entered an age of blending in. And of course, we need to adjust, to give value to the past but also stay current.

I like to imagine that fantastical one-offs can become tomorrow’s classics, not necessarily because they meet everyone’s taste but because they’re a testament to one’s creative expression. Social media may have shifted the paradigm but I don’t think that the perception of a ‘valuable’ fashion item has changed—rather the contrary. The amount of products that come our way is so aggressive that people have developed antibodies.

“For me, investment pieces are very much tied to the emotion that they convey, as well as how they represent a specific time in my life. They create this visual timeline that I can look back on and associate with a beautiful moment.”—Laure Dubreuil, Founder and Creative Director of The Webster
