A-Z Brands: B




To continue my A-Z Brand list, today we are focusing on B. Like yesterday, I am highlighting a brand that isn't as commonly known. You can find information on Ralph Lauren and Nike anywhere; let's dig a little deeper. 

Letter of the Day: B 

Brioni 

Brioni is a menswear couture house, found in 1945 in Rome, that is known for its suits and leather goods. The innovative company invented the men's runway show, trunk show and ready to wear Haute couture.  In 1952, Brioni staged the first men's fashion show in Florence, Italy. Brioni is consistently voted one of the top men's luxury clothing brands in the world and has been worn by celebrities such as; Richard Burton, Clark Gable, John Wayne, Leonardo DiCaprio, Orlando Bloom, Morgan Freeman and others. Brioni has boutiques throughout the world including in Beverly Hills, Las Vegas, New York, Chicago, and Palm Beach. 


The value of Brioni items on eBay is along the levels of Gucci, Versace and the most valuable clothing companies in the world. If you find a suit or jacket: DO NOT HESITATE TO BUY IT. IN FACT....JUST CHECK OUT NOW AND GO PLAY THE LOTTERY. Ties at a reasonable price are also a great buy. Men's dress shirts are the worst selling Brioni item. If you can get one really cheap or one that isn't just a solid plain color, then go for it. I'd be more conservative about buying shirts, but honestly would buy anything from Brioni. Here are some completed listings for pre-owned Brioni items: 
























Yes, those prices are right! Even the cheapest jacket should make you a good profit. 


Personally, I have found one Brioni item. I found a suit jacket and actually got it for free with a loyalty card. I have not listed it yet; I want to get it dry cleaned first, but it should sell very well. The picture is a little rough: just took it for this post. 



You won't come across a jacket by Brioni very often. I grew up in an affluent area (wish I was rich too 😃) and I found the jacket at a Goodwill there. If you do find a jacket or item from Brioni, you know what to do: BUY IT!
