Business of Fashion reported on a new survey of over 3000 shoppers that revealed which brands millennials, in particular, are buying from right now. The conclusion: Gucci and Louis Vuitton are millennials' favorite brands.
Furthermore, the survey explained just how much spending power millennials hold right now: "Eighteen to 35 year olds have contributed 85 percent to growth in the luxury market last year and will represent 45 percent of total high-end spending by 2025, according to the report published Friday," BoF writes.
