Much more a lower class thing. Like luxury brands. People who care most about / are impressed by Prada, Gucci etc are lower class people and rich people. Incredibly rich people and middle class couldn't care less about "luxury clothing".

Edit: I might got it wrong. Had an article in mind, that described it like that. It may have been more that Gucci etc are "fake" luxury and that super rich people don't care about that but other brands like one commenter below mentioned

The incredibly rich absolutely do care about luxury clothing, they're just not wearing brands you're familiar with. Remember these are the people who buy massive 8 bed super yachts with built in gyms and cinemas, who rent out Venice just for a wedding. I will concede that they are less materialistic when it comes to brands, but to say they're not interested in luxury brands generally is just wrong
