Many overseas purchasing agents said that some of the luxury goods brands in Europe had risen in price. By August, European luxury goods will increase in price, and the United States will follow up the price increase. In addition, as the euro exchange rate continues to fall, June and July will be the last "bottom season" for overseas luxury goods in the year.

Every year from June to August as usual, it is the summer discount season in Europe and the United States. It is also the best season for many white-collar workers to spend money on luxury bags. PRADA, CHANEL, MIUMIU and other brands have launched special products during this period.

This year, because of the appreciation of the renminbi and the decline of the euro exchange rate, many overseas luxury goods consumers have also come to a small climax of purchasing abroad.

"Last month, a Chanel medium classicflap bag was originally worth 1750 euros, and now it has risen to 2150 euros."

White-collar Miss Lin, who often buys luxury goods through the Internet, tells the writer.

In fact, the bags sold by Chanel stores in France have been fully priced in June 25th and some of them have been adjusted to 30%.

A senior Taobao overseas purchasing agent said: "at the end of Chanel6, Europe has already raised its prices in an all round way. The increase is very amazing. The increase of classic items is about 500 euros. In the middle of 7, the United States will follow up. The customers who bought before are very cost-effective."

In addition to CHANEL, Dior also raised the price. The unit price of some products has risen by about 100 euros, while some of Gucci's commodities have been adjusted urgently in Europe around June 10th, and the price range is about 4% - 5%.

Some parts of Hermes also came up with the news that prices will rise in the near future.

At the end of July and early August, the US counters will also rise in price, and July will be the last gold purchase period this year.

Many purchasing agencies have said so.

In the past month, as the euro exchange rate continued to decline, the spread of luxury goods such as GUCCI, LV and other luxury goods in Europe has further widened. Many domestic white-collar workers have been shopping online for luxury goods. By mid July, some European brands have already raised their prices.

The number of classic brands has increased every year, and some brands have gone up two times a year, people said.

"Seize the last gold purchase period in July, and do it quickly."
